Amnesty: 'Blood diamond' ancora nelle gioiellerie 01/26/2007 In occasione dell’uscita in Italia del film "Blood Diamond", la Sezione Italiana di Amnesty International ricorda che "il commercio miliardario dei diamanti provenienti da zone di guerra ha finanziato e finanzia ancora oggi guerre civili che in Africa dall’inizio degli anni ‘90 hanno provocato più di 3,7 milioni di vittime". L'associazione evidenzia che "la storia che racconta il film non riguarda soltanto il passato - come afferma l’industria mondiale dei diamanti - perchè i "diamanti insanguinati" raggiungono ancora le vetrine delle gioiellerie di tutto il mondo sfruttando l’inefficacia degli attuali strumenti di controllo". In occasione dell'uscita del film negli Usa, i Boscimani del Kalahari hanno rinnovato il loro appello a Leonardo Di Caprio, protagonista del film, per chiedere di sostenere la loro causa e fermare le compagnie diamantifere che hanno iniziato le esplorazioni sul loro territorio.

WSF: informazione e Africa: tra provincialismo e nuove sfide 01/25/2007 Il tema dell’informazione sull’Africa e dall’Africa ha attraversato tutte le giornate del Forum sociale mondiale (WSF), iniziato il 20 gennaio e che oggi è alla sua giornata conclusiva con la maratona dalla baraccopoli di Korogocho fino a Hururu Park, nel centro della capitale. Nei giorni scorsi si sono svolti seminari su "media ed etica dell’informazione" organizzati da due network africani, Panos e Inter Press Service Africa. Diana Senghor, direttrice di Panos Senegal ha ricordato che “una delle risorse del nostro continente sono i media comunitari, le radio in particolare, che sono di gran lunga le più diffuse e fruite dalla popolazione". Tra le iniziative italiane c’è stato il confronto tra giornalisti europei e africani al Centro culturale italiano il 23 gennaio, a cui hanno partecipato fra gli altri il direttore della nuova sede Rai a Nairobi Enzo Nucci e l’inviato del Corriere della Sera, Massimo Alberizzi.

Marocco: cresce repressione nel Sahara occidentale, 700 arresti nel 2006 01/24/2007 Le violazioni dei diritti umani nella regione del Sahara occidentale occupata dal Marocco sono in aumento. Da un rapporto dell'Associazione per i Popoli Minacciati (APM) risulta che nel 2006 le forze di sicurezza del Marocco hanno arrestato complessivamente 685 persone appartenenti al popolo dei Saharawi mentre manifestavano pacificamente contro l'occupazione del loro territorio e il loro diritto all'autodeterminazione, così come sancito dall'Onu nel 1966 e riconfermato a una missione Onu del 1973. In seguito all'ultimo sollevamento popolare dei Saharawi del maggio 2005 contro l'occupazione del Marocco, gli arresti in massa di intere famiglie e di minorenni e la tortura sono purtroppo tornati all'ordine del giorno.
