"Despite their strong desire to stay, the intensification of climate change forces more indigenous women to temporarily migrate to cities. There, they engage in buying and selling goods to secure alternative sources of income for their families. This situation particularly affects single mothers, as they cannot rely on a partner’s income at home."

"the Mbya Guaraní people is one of the 19 indigenous ethnic groups in Paraguay and among the most affected by deforestation, a common problem for indigenous peoples here. The landlocked country has the highest percentage loss of forest cover in South America, 27 per cent between 2001 and 2021."

Watching #TheMission (1986) in light of the current AI crisis in #HigherEducation.

The other day I happened to re-watch this 1986 #film by #RolandJoffé. I had last seen it 40 years ago when it came out. It has aged quite well. The depiction of the indigeneous #Guaraní people is embarrassingly superficial. And the idea that the Jesuit order was a benevolent force is of course laughable. But as a story of an institution that willingly sacrifices its purpose and moral integrity in a power game, the film works.

I can't help drawing parallels to the current AI corruption of higher education.

In Cardinal Altamirano (played by the excellent #RayMcAnally), we see the manager who knows that his action destroys the very rationale of his institution, yet he does it. The two priests (Jeremy Irons and Robert de Niro) are the ground-level staff who stay true to their calling and fight, in different ways. They vanish. Years later, the manager has the luxury of regret.
