  • You Might Like: The Most Important Question
    2025/04/15
    While the show is on hiatus, we want to share a few podcasts on the HERO feed that we think you might like. We will release these episodes over the next month. This first one is from a podcast called The Most Important Question from the Important, Not Important team. When HERO first launched, Important, Not Important featured one of our early episodes. It’s a good show, and we’ve been happy to remain in touch over the years. This episode fits in well with our recent season. It’s an interview with Dr. Ticora V. Jones, who served as the chief scientist for the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). She’s currently the chief science officer at the NRDC. ----------- Have feedback or questions about the episode? Tweet at the show, or send a message to questions@importantnotimportant.com.

  • Series Reflections: Reporters’ Roundtable
    2025/04/01
    First, we need to share some news. This may be our last episode. We are so grateful to the funding we have received for this podcast over the last four years. But our largest grant is ending soon. So for now, we are saying goodbye. We truly hope to be back in your feed someday. To commemorate HERO, we are doing one last “follow-up” episode. This was an idea from you, our listeners. You suggested talking to past interviewees and seeing what they are doing now. For today’s show, we’re doing a “reporters’ roundtable” where we look back and look ahead at some of our most impactful stories of the past 8 seasons. Host Reena Ninan talks to Kenya-based reporters Sharon Kiburi and Eunice Maina as well as South-Africa based journalist Elna Schutz. If you are new to the show, you may want to go back and listen to the stories Sharon, Eunice, and Elna talk about on this episode: What Works in Defeating Workplace Sexual Harassment (Sharon Kiburi) How Men Are Trying to End Gender-Based Violence in South Africa (Elna Schutz) The Hidden Economics of Female Genital Mutilation (Eunice Maina) The Economics of Period Poverty (Elna Schutz) Fighting for LGBTQ Rights in Kenya (Eunice Maina) What the Debt Crisis in Kenya Reveals About International Lending (Sharon Kiburi) In the meantime, please stay in touch. You can email us at podcasts@foreignpolicy.com or contact our senior producer Laura Rosbrow-Telem at laura.rosbrow-telem@foreignpolicy.com. We hope to be back soon.

  • Sabrina Habib Reflects on Kidogo's Growth
    2025/03/25
    The idea for today’s show came from you: our listeners. Many of you wanted to hear “follow up” stories. You suggested talking to past interviewees and seeing what they are doing now. In particular, you were curious if the gender equality issues they were advocating for had advanced or backslided since we first reported on them. Today, we are coming back to Sabrina Habib, who was on our very first episode in 2021. Habib is the CEO and Co-Founder of Kidogo, a nonprofit focused on creating affordable high quality daycare centers in Kenya. Since we last spoke with Habib, Kidogo has greatly expanded. Host Reena Ninan asks her what led to this growth and about her recent endeavors with Melinda French Gates.
