“We are coming up with solutions. That’s the story here – the resilience, not the vulnerability,” Saleemul Huq told us last month. Jacob Glass’s interview with Huq – later transcribed in full – was part of a look at Bangladesh’s budding aquaculture sector and one of the most popular new articles last month. Joining it were other newcomers, on storytelling and influencing policy; the annual Society of Environmental Journalists conference; Africa’s nexus of demography, environment, and security challenges; and 10 recommendations for the population, health, and environment (PHE) community from the BALANCED Project, as they finish five years of global programming.
