If anybody wants to look any further into that policy and just sort of AI and technology and how it impacts us and impacts women especially, I would suggest having a look at Dr. Cassandra Mudgeway, who's a senior lecturer at University of Canterbury.

So that kind of ties interests in running and so running injuries and biomechanics.
Connor MeltonGUEST
And hopefully I'd like to use that to pursue a career in running shoe development and innovation and research.

The Herero and Ovambo weren't.
Robert EvansHOST
In her dissertation for the University of Canterbury, Susan Schumacher just summarizes his impressions of these different peoples.
Robert EvansHOST
Galton was unimpressed with the Nama, and felt superior to them as he outsmarted the current chief, Jonker Afrikaner, and managed to secure both passage for himself and convince the chief to sign up to a Western-style legal code, which prescribed Jonker's behavior, particularly against the Herero, whom they were murdering and stealing cattle from at the time.
Robert EvansHOST
Galton also disliked the Herero.

Viliame KasanawakaSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It's really the challenges of the planetary crisis that we are facing, the poly-crisis of sorts.
Viliame KasanawakaSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And small land development states are quite unique in that they hold some very, you know, in terms of natural capital, some of the fragile ecosystem that supports the whole planet.
