02/22/2008 "Treviso non è razzista, ma una città civile": per dimostrarlo i cittadini trevigiani hanno lanciato l'appello online 'Treviso città aperta' "per dare all'Italia e a quanti ci guardano nel mondo, un'immagine meno chiusa e claustrofobica".

La responsabilità di questo mutamento di percezione è innanzitutto del ceto politico locale che ha preso in ostaggio il 'marchio' trevigiano" - scrivono i promotori dell'appello che vogliono evidenziare come "larga parte di questa società non discrimina le persone in base alla religione, alla sessualità, al colore della pelle".

Comitato diritti umani
02/20/2008 Oggi, undici rappresentanti del 'Comitato per la promozione e protezione dei diritti umani' e del 'Gruppo di lavoro per la Convenzione sui diritti dell’infanzia e dell’adolescenza' hanno presentato all’Ufficio dell’Alto commissario Onu per i diritti umani di Ginevra tre documenti congiunti di informazioni supplementari al Rapporto del governo italiano oggi in esame. L’Italia è uno dei sei Paesi su 47 del Consiglio d’Europa a rimanere senza una Istituzione nazionale indipendente per i diritti umani e a risultare inadempiente a tutte le specifiche raccomandazioni in proposito di ciascuno dei Comitati Onu per i diritti umani.

02/18/2008 There are millions in India who do the dirty job risking their lives. We never notice their lives or deaths. Bereft of the honour of uniform and the posthumous glamour of martyrdom, these soldiers sacrifice their lives making sure the rivers of filth flow unhindered, says S. Anand of Tehelka, a weekly magazine.

02/11/2008 Even as the HIV virus occurrence rate remains low at below 1 percent in Bangladesh, the country needs to secure itself by building awareness, officials say. More often, people need support to fight the social stigma that goes with the virus in this largely conservative Muslim society.
