In Qatar, foreigners make up 90% of the population. They work in every sector from services to construction, and though the country is totally dependent on them, they are often treated like serfs. Due to international pressure, Qatar reformed its labour law, but workers say that while their rights have improved on paper they've since little real change.

Qatar: Exploitation of Workers

The foreign workers who helped build Qatar's World Cup buildings say they haven't been paid and are kept in substandard accommodation.

Beginning in April, a phone line, website and text messages throughout Russia aimed at encouraging people to report the "suspicious" activities of anyone who does not support the Russian offensive, on behalf of the fight against extremism to justify the actions of the security forces against the opposition. Nearly 189,000 cameras monitor public space in Moscow, helping to install a general climate of fear where any divergence from the official Kremlin propaganda can have serious consequences.

Since April, Russians have been encouraged to denounce fellow citizens that disagree with the war on Ukraine.

Further competition is coming from the tech giants as Amazon and Alibaba invest in the food industry. What are the implications of all these changes on working conditions, the quality of our food and the future of our planet?

The model of everything under one roof is looking increasingly strained. What is the future for food retail in the digital age?

In the collective imagination, classical dance is about grace and lightness. But dancing is physically demanding and requires thousands of hours of training. By the time dancers reach their forties, they are close to retirement, but they have often reached the height of their artistic powers. Maturity holds great artistic potential, which increasingly calls into question the glorification of youth in dance.

Professional dancers usually retire after the age of 40 but are often at the height of their artistic powers at this age. Should they dance on?
