We devote this episode to the mark celebratory UN@80 - UN Day - 24 October. During the High-Level Week of the 80th United Nations General Assembly, we had a talk with the EU Commissioner for International Partnerships, Jozef Síkela, who devoted some time to youth in his busy schedule. In his role, Commissioner Síkela is responsible for ensuring that the EU builds long-term, mutually beneficial partnerships that strengthen prosperity, resilience, and security. In this conversation, he reflects on his recent travels, shares insights into the Global Gateway initiative, building on the Team Europe approach and explains how Europe is working to deliver concrete projects that make a difference on the ground. Among all the important issues, Commissioner Sikela also ensures the EU support and promotion of the United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. EU Youth Delegate Veronika Novotna, discusses all this and also the resilience of the international system in uncertain times, the role of young people in global cooperation, and how the EU is addressing backsliding on human rights, gender equality, and the need for more inclusive partnerships with civil society, academia, and the private sector. Commissioner Síkela offered a personal message to the young people attending UNGA80 — and to youth everywhere – listen to the episode to hear his message!

Ep 35 - Girls in STEM: A Talk with Eleonora Svanberg Mathematical Physics PhD Student
In today’s episode of Who Rules the World?, host Giulia Tariello European Union Youth Delegate, talks with Eleonora Svanberg, an inspiring woman reshaping the narrative around women and girls in STEM. Eleonora is a half-Swedish, half-Persian writer, speaker, founder, and advocate, currently pursuing a PhD in mathematical physics at the University of Oxford. Beyond her groundbreaking academic pursuits, Eleonora is a prominent social media influencer with over 300,000 followers on her platform, where she inspires the next generation of women to explore the world of science, technology, and mathematics. Despite progress, the gender gap in STEM remains significant, with systemic barriers often discouraging women from entering or advancing in these fields. Eleonora’s mission is to change this narrative. By sharing her experience and advocating for inclusivity, she empowers young women and girls globally to follow their aspirations and thrive in STEM careers. This episode will explore her work and how platforms like hers can inspire a new generation. Together, they delve into actionable ways to bridge the gender gap in STEM and highlight the importance of creating a more inclusive and equitable future for women in science.
