Pandemic response (S4 - Ep3): It was the most hotly debated issue in the run-up to MC12 and at the very last minute, negotiations nearly broke down because of a footnote. The issue was the WTO's intellectual property response to the COVID-19 pandemic, commonly known as the TRIPS waiver. There is good news to report in this episode as WTO members agreed at MC12 to waive certain requirements under the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) making it easier for developing countries to produce and export COVID-19 vaccines. Anabel González, WTO Deputy Director-General and Ambassador Lansana Gberie of Sierra Leone, the chair of the TRIPS Council, talk about how WTO members adopted a problem-solving approach on the waiver issue and agreed on a strategy to ensure trade can support the expanded and diversified production of essential goods needed in the fight against COVID-19 and future pandemics. by Let's talk trade by WTO

Tackling the sub-agent dilemma: Exploring the pros and cons of aggregated recruitment: Main topic: Building a sub-agent network has been a well-known strategy in international student recruitment for many years. Sub-agents can provide education providers with a range of advantages, including expanding market reach, leveraging local expertise, increasing diversity, and enhancing conversion rates. However, the use of sub-agents also has its challenges, and with the dramatic increase in sub-agent recruitment, fuelled by the emergence of ‘agent aggregators’, more and more concerns are being raised about quality control, transparency, data security and potential conflicts of interest. In addition, the absence of direct relationships between agents and education providers may expose institutions to reputational risks if sub-agents engage in unethical practices or provide misleading information to students. In this episode's main topic we take a look at sub-agent recruitment, exploring its by ICEF Podcast
