"Polycrisis" was a term coined to describe the convergence of multiple global challenges: political polarisation, conflicts, and the breakdown of post-World War Two norms on issues such as trade and security.
Yuen Yuen Ang, a political science professor at Johns Hopkins University, says polycrisis was a useful way of framing the problem, but to find solutions we should consider the global "polytunity".

Women spend 25% more of their lives in poor health than men and are 50% more likely to die of a heart attack than a male patient.
The statistics are staggering - but there are some relatively simple and cost-effective ways healthcare systems can improve the situation.
Lucy Perez of the McKinsey Health Institute sets out the challenges and talks us through these potential solutions.

Is 2026 the year it all changed for energy?
The Strait of Hormuz closure was "the largest oil supply disruption in history" but has not (yet) brought the global economy to its knees. But are we now living in a post-Hormuz world where countries and companies are seeking to diversify energy supply and ramp up renewables?
Jason Bordoff of the Center on Global Energy Policy and the Columbia Energy Exchange podcast returns to Radio Davos, at the Forum's 'Summer Davos' in China, for an update on the global energy situation.
Co-hosted by Roberto Booca, head of the Forum's Centre for Energy and Materials.
