#Solvable? Really?

Yes. At The Rockefeller Foundation, we believe some of the biggest challenges that limit the lives or 
prospects of vulnerable people are solvable — and solvable in our lifetime.

Without question, the key ingredient is expertise: the know-how to harness technology, science and
innovation in ways that meaningfully improve lives. But expertise is not enough: we need to marshal
the optimism that solutions are within reach, and the policies, partnerships, and financing to bring those
solutions to scale.

Introducing #Solvable — a multimedia platform aimed at driving awareness of global issues that are 
solvable in the next generation. On podcast episodes, in more than 40 mini-films, and in a television-
length documentary film, #Solvable features experts and innovators like Bill Gates, Princess Reema, 
and Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who are tackling everything from childhood malnutrition to financial 
self-sufficiency for women to access to vaccines — a fascinating array of solvable challenges related 
to the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals for 2030.

We encourage you to watch and listen to learn more about how many of today’s biggest challenges 
are #Solvable.

EGMONT Institute: Extremist Offender Management in Belgium

Extremist Offender Management in Belgium By Thomas Renard (27 July 2020)  In Other publications EU strategy and foreign policy, Middle-East / North Africa, Terrorism The presence of terrorist convicts in prison is not a new phenomenon in Belgium. However, radicalisation or recruitment was less visible, or at least less observed until it became a policy priority to monitor violent extremists in prison in 2015. This chapter, which is part of a broader report, analyses the specific policies and tools that have been developed in Belgium to address the challenge of radicalisation in prison, and the rehabilitation of terrorist offenders after their release. This chapter (view the PDF below) was published as part of the report “Extremist Offender Management in Europe: Country Reports” published by ICSR, and available here .
