Overcoming trauma in the service of peace, with Elpida Rouka | UN ‘Awake at Night’ podcast teaser

Elpida Rouka’s first name means hope in Greek, a feeling that can sometimes be elusive when serving in the most troubled places on earth. Currently a senior political affairs officer in Geneva, she is a survivor of the 2003 Baghdad Canal Hotel bombing, the deadliest attack in UN history.

“First you feel the shake, and the light, and then the blast, the sound comes. I blacked out between exiting the building, but when I was out, there was just a scene of a massacre. The only thing I recall after that was being thrown a phone and told: ‘Call your parents, now.’”

Humanitarian workers are routinely exposed to primary and secondary trauma. Yet stigma and survivor’s guilt can prevent aid workers seeking timely help for post-traumatic stress. In this episode, Elpida Rouka reflects on grief, loss, and mental and physical scars, and shares why the exact wording of the preamble of the UN Charter has helped give her the strength to heal.

How air bubbles can remove 99.9% of forever chemicals from water

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

‘Forever chemicals’ are found in masses of products, from non-stick pans to clothing. As their nickname suggests, these per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are hard to get rid of.

US company Allonnia provides a solution to remove PFAS from water using air. As bubbles rise, they separate out more than 99.99% of PFAS molecules.

PFAS destruction technologies have been selected as one of the World Economic Forum’s Top 10 Emerging Technologies of 2026.

The World Economic Forum is the International Organization for Public-Private Cooperation. It provides a global, impartial and not-for-profit platform for meaningful connection between stakeholders to establish trust, and build initiatives for cooperation and progress.
