Newsday

Available for over a year

Newsday is co-presenting from Cameroon which is playing host to the African Cup of Nations from Sunday, looking at the insurgency in the anglophone areas of the country and the impact it has on young people who have lost years of education. In Kazakhstan, Russian-led "peacekeeping" troops have now arrived in the country, but the violence on the streets is continuing. By 2050, a new study estimates 153 million people will be living with dementia across the world - up from some 57 million people currently - with the biggest increases in the Middle East and eastern sub-Saharan Africa.
