The controversial German entrepreneur dubbed it “The Moment of Truth”.<\/p>\n\n\t<p>He sat in a packed Auckland town hall alongside his lawyer Bob Amsterdam, the leader of the Internet Party Laila Harr\u00e9 and US journalist Glenn Greenwald, who worked with whistle-blower Edward Snowden on his revelations on mass surveillance.<\/p>\n\n\t<p>Snowden and Wikileaks’ Julian Assange joined the event via live video stream from, respectively, the Ecuadorian embassy in London and an undisclosed location in Russia, to thunderous applause from a passionate audience. The whole event was streamed live online.<\/p>\n\n\t<p>Dotcom and his guests took turns to talk about online mass surveillance. Greenwald locked horns at a distance with New Zealand’s prime minister John Key, accusing him of declassifying documents on the Kiwi surveillance program for political gains. Greenwald argued that the said documents were classified in the first place not to protect state security, but to hide what was going on from the NZ public.<\/p>\n\n\t<p>In addition to plugging, not so subtly, the Mega-developed “fully encrypted video conference solution” used by Assanage and Snowden to talk during the event, Dotcom promised to “close one of the ‘Five Eyes’,” in reference to the name of the intelligence alliance that includes Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.<\/p>\n\n\t<p><h3>Watch again the #MomentofTruth event<\/h3><\/p>\n\n\t<p><iframe width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=https://www.euronews.com/"////www.youtube.com//embed//Pbps1EwAW-0?t=21m55s\%22 frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\t<p><strong>The rally starts at the 21:55 mark<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\t<p>The Moment of Truth rally is only one part of the offensive against the alleged mass surveillance program in place in New Zealand.

The islands were removed from the UN Heritage Committee\u2019s list of endangered sites in 2010 in part due to projects training young people in conservation, environmental issues and ecology. \n\nhttp:\/\/www.idealist.org\n\nThanks to a unique variety of species, the Galapagos are a natural laboratory in the wild. Yet the islands also host over 5,200 primary and secondary students through a network of 20 public and private schools.\n\nOn Santa Cruz Island Tom\u00e1s de Berlanga school is an interesting example of how education in remote places may be a challenge but also offers an extraordinary prize. \n\nFrom the Pacific Ocean to Burkina Faso in Africa, one of the world\u2019s poorest countries. Agriculture is the main source of income for most people but less than a quarter of the land is farmed. We look at one project which is teaching agricultural techniques alongside other practical skills like carpentry and sewing. \n\nBurkina Fasso: building skills\n\nD\u00e9dougou is a medium-sized town in the Sahel region of Africa, in Burkina Faso. 80% of the inhabitants are farmers. Their livelihood depends on rainfall. The problem in this semi-arid region is that it only rains, on average, four months a year. So, how do you survive the entire 12 months? You adapt. People must find other work to get through the year. And education must adapt as well to prepare young people to survive in this difficult climate.\n\nhttp:\/\/www.afrik.com\n\nFinally, returning to the Pacific Ocean, we visit Kiribati, a tiny island nation, where climate change is a major preoccupation. Here, UNICEF has been providing lessons so that people are better informed and have a variety of ways of tackling it. \n\nKiribati: climate class\n\nKiribati is one of the world\u2019s most vulnerable countries, spread over 33 low-lying atolls in the central and western Pacific region.\n\nIts people are experiencing a disaster that is slowly and steadily eroding their culture and home.\n\nTheir low-lying atolls are pounded day and night by rising sea levels, which infiltrate scarce supplies of fresh water and the limited patches of fertile land.\n\nMore than 100 videos have been produced by young people from across the Pacific, taking their local experience global. They are now available online on the Unicef Pacific Youtube channel. \n\nhttp:\/\/www.unicef.org\/infobycountry\/kiribati\n\nhttp:\/\/www.unicefpacific.org\n\nIn addition to UNICEF\u2019s funding of a wide range of national programmes the EU donates 3.2 million euros as part of its WASH, (Water Sanitation and Hygiene), initiative.\n\nhttp:\/\/unfccc.int (PDF)\n\nhttp:\/\/www.kiribatitourism.gov.ki\n\nhttp:\/\/www.unicef.org\/infobycountry\/kiribati\n\nStory by 20 Minutes newspaper (French)\n\nhttp:\/\/www.unicef.org\/french\/adolescence\/kiribati_57819.html\n\nWe look forward to hearing your feedback on our social media pages.
