Women issues untouched as MDGs reach halfway point 07/31/2007 The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) have reached a halfway point but little seems to have changed, particularly for women whose lives are most affected by extreme poverty.

Immigrati: solo il 6% ottiene il rinnovo, stipendi sotto la media 07/20/2007 La situazione dei permessi di soggiorno non si sblocca e gli immigrati che dopo aver chiesto il rinnovo hanno ricevuto un documento finalmente valido sono solo il 6% del totale, riportano i dati forniti ieri dal Viminale ai sindacati. Dall'11 dicembre a oggi sono state presentate agli uffici postali 821mila domande di rinnovo, ma i permessi elettronici consegnati sono appena 50mila. Rimane inoltre altissimo il numero di domande ferme perché “anomale” che sono ben 281mila. Tutto questo mentre i cittadini stranieri hanno sborsato 70 euro a domanda, cioè nell'insieme, 57 milioni di euro. Intanto il "Secondo rapporto sugli immigrati e la previdenza" dell'Inps informa che gli stipendi dei lavoratori stranieri sono "sotto la media": retribuzioni di 900 euro in media, il 40% in meno rispetto agli italiani.

Milano: protesta a Unicredit per finanziamenti a diga di Ilisu 07/19/2007 Si è tenuto oggi a Milano un volantinaggio davanti alla sede centrale del gruppo Unicredit per chiedere ai vertici dell'istituto di ritirare il sostegno economico al controverso progetto della diga di Ilisu, nel Kurdistan turco. La banca austriaca Austria Bank Creditanstalt, controllata da Unicredit, è intenzionata a contribuire alla costruzione dell'opera con un finanziamento di 280 milioni di euro. In passato la diga di Ilisu, sul fiume Tigri, non aveva ricevuto l'appoggio né della Banca mondiale né della Sace, l'agenzia di credito all'esportazione italiana, a causa della rischiosità dell'investimento e degli impatti devastanti. Tuttavia, il progetto è nuovamente sostenuto da imprese austriache, tedesche e svizzere. Il movimento di protesta si è organizzato anche in questi paesi, facendo pressione su Unione europea, governi locali, imprese e sistema finanziario coinvolti.

Libia: commutate le condanne a morte, sollievo e delusione 07/19/2007 Le cinque infermiere bulgare e il medico di origine palestinese accusati di aver volontariamente iniettato, nel 1998, il virus dell'HIV in 438 bambini allora ricoverati all'ospedale pediatrico di Bengasi, non saranno giustiziati. Ieri sera il Consiglio superiore delle istanze giudiziarie di Tripoli, organismo semi-politico, ha commutato le sentenze di morte, confermate in ultima istanza l'11 luglio scorso, per trasformarle in ergastolo. Amnesty International afferma: "Siamo sollevati perché la minaccia dell’esecuzione è venuta meno, ma siamo profondamente contrariati dal fatto che esse potrebbero trascorrere il resto della loro vita in carcere". In Bulgaria, dove la sentenza è stata attesa in un'atmosfera densa di tensione e speranze, il verdetto è stato accolto con un misto di sollievo e delusione - riporta Osservatorio sui Balcani.

Obiezione di coscienza co.co.co. 07/18/2007 Sarà possibile abiurare la scelta di obiezione di coscienza, magari per arruolarsi nelle forze armate e andare volontari in “missione di pace” in Afghanistan. Lo prevede un disegno di legge già approvato dalla Camera lo scorso 8 maggio (favorevole tutto il Centro-sinistra, contrari An e Udc, non hanno partecipato al voto Forza Italia e alcuni leghisti) e ora atteso in Senato per il voto finale, presumibilmente già a luglio. Decisamente contrario alla legge Mosaico di Pace – mensile promosso da Pax Christi – che sul numero di giugno critica duramente il ddl: "Si inaugura pertanto l’epoca nuova della sepoltura dell’obiezione e... della sua coscienza? Oppure è forse solo l’atto innocuo di un Parlamento che apre la stagione dei saldi per svendere anche valori e significati di cui non è mai stato nemmeno lontano parente?" - nota Mosaico di Pace. "Tutto il Parlamento italiano è mobilitato per approvare una leggina che servirà a poche decine di persone, mentre non muove un dito per lo stato disastroso in cui versa il servizio civile nazionale" - denuncia Massimo Paolicelli, presidente dell’Associazione Obiettori Nonviolenti (Aon). di Luca Kocci Read more Related: [Activism] [Peace]
