A Shot At History

A powerful three-part series exploring one of humanity’s greatest breakthroughs. We follow the human stories behind the science, revealing what’s at stake for millions of families across Sub-Saharan Africa, the economic and emotional cost of malaria, and how the world’s first vaccine for a parasitic disease made it from the lab to the arms of mothers and babies.

​

From scientists and cold-chain logisticians to motorbike health workers delivering vials to remote villages, the series uncovers the extraordinary effort required to roll out a lifesaving vaccine across the hottest continent on earth. With over five million children already reached, we look at the surprising heroes behind the scenes, the future of malaria prevention, and the big question: is the vaccine working?

Is This the Time of Monsters —

or Miracles?

Headlines warn of a world in collapse, but solutions journalist Angus Hervey finds the overlooked triumphs that never make the news — from the rollout of malaria vaccines to the recovery of sea turtles.

​

With hard data and stories from the frontlines, he reveals the hidden progress that perseveres even as it feels like the world is falling apart, and challenges us to decide which future we'll help write.

​

In his talk, Hervey urges us to rethink the narratives we consume and to recognise the powerful momentum created by innovators, activists and everyday people quietly solving humanity’s toughest problems. By spotlighting these breakthroughs, he reminds us that optimism isn’t naïve — it’s a strategic tool for change.
