 <title> Report on inequality in Europe: Tax harmonisation is the key to curb inequality</title>
 <link>http://voxeurop.eu/fr/2019/galit-s-5122846</link>
 <description>The World Inequality Lab has just released an unpublished report measuring the development of inequality in Europe and the United States since 1980. Entitled Has the European social model withstood the rise in inequality?, the report is the first to analyse income disparities before and after tax over such a long period, for all European countries.</description>

 <title> The future of sharing: it's still about freedom</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41876&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Tim Jenkin is a real-life superhero. A white South African, he took up campaigning for the African National Congress (ANC) and against Apartheid and was jailed for oeterrorism.” After two years he ghosted his way out of jail using keys he forged himself. In the 1980s he built an encrypted communication network which helped the ANC become an effective political force. Then in the late 1990s he began writing software to help people swap goods and services without money. When I met him last year, I discovered how his approach could resuscitate a vision I thought was dying.</description>

 <title> Power to the pupils: solar panels keep Kenya's kids in school</title>
 <link>http://news.trust.org/item/20180725134510-5i97c/</link>
 <description>From a mile away, the roof of Mihingoni Primary School glitters in Kenya's midday sun. The effect, though, comes not from the roof but from what is on it: a sparkling array of solar panels.
Mihingoni is one of eight mostly off-grid primary schools in the southeastern coastal county of Kilifi that have been fitted with a solar array.
The key task of the 800-watt panels is to power tablet computers that pupils use under the government's strategy to integrate e-learning into primary education.</description>

 <title> Misuse of opioids such as tramadol and fentanyl is 'global epidemic', report finds</title>
 <link>http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2018/jun/27/misuse-opioids-tramadol-fentanyl-global-epidemic</link>
 <description>The misuse of pharmaceutical opioids is fast becoming a oeglobal epidemic”, with the largest quantities being seized in African countries for the second year in a row, according to a UN report.
While huge attention has been paid to the opioid crisis in the US " where the misuse of prescription drugs like fentanyl dominates " figures released by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime has revealed seizures in Africa of opioids now account for 87% of the global total.</description>

 <title> For ‘Aquarius’ migrants, going to Spain is either paradise or punishment</title>
 <link>http://politica.elpais.com/politica/2018/06/12/actualidad/1528827269_774477.html</link>
 <description>oeWe are so happy. We’re not going back to Libya! We are going to a land of freedom: freedom of expression, freedom of movement, a place with the right to education!” exclaimed an exultant 26-year-old from Sierra Leone named Moses, when he learned that he was being taken to Spain.
But the disclosure that Spain’s new Socialist Party (PSOE) government is taking in the 629 migrants that Italy and Malta turned away does not mean the same thing to all the people aboard the Aquarius. The first reaction was subdued: everyone sat still and scanned the crowd with their eyes, as if to gauge by other migrants’ reaction whether this was good news or bad news.</description>

 <title> The media have forgotten about refugees and migrants</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41676&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>We must transform society, we are the spokespeople, but we must not fall into what is called oeMe-ism”. Unfortunately, the profession of journalism is full of oeMe-ists”, it is a new trend. We journalists have to go out and sell our stories, we have to make a living, support our families and then watch as others change our headlines and change our captions and even what we wanted to transmit. We have to fight it from the inside. I appeal to all the colleagues to unite and take to the streets to demand justice journalism, such as the work of Pressenza.</description>

 <title> French village opens its doors and its heart to African refugees</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41657&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Some of the 800 residents of the peaceful Alsatian commune of Thal-Marmoutier, moved by their ordeal, gather to welcome them and help them take their first steps towards a new life. For the next four months the 56 women, men and children will be hosted by Franciscan nuns in their convent as a French non-profit organization, France Horizon, helps them put down roots.
Twenty-five " from Eritrea, Ethiopia and Sudan " had been stranded and detained in Libya, and were evacuated to Niger by UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency.</description>

 <title> Palestinian refugees in Lebanon
"I've never forgotten Palestine"</title>
 <link>http://en.qantara.de/content/palestinian-refugees-in-lebanon-ive-never-forgotten-palestine</link>
 <description>In May 1948, Israel declared its independence. Palestinians such as Hafida Khatib refer to this moment as the "Nakba" (catastrophe). Hafida and her family fled to Lebanon, a country that has never felt like home.
Following the outbreak of the Arab"Israeli War in 1948, 19-year-old Hafida Khatib and her family fled from the Palestinian village of Dayr al-Qassi to neighbouring Lebanon. "I have lived in Lebanon for 70 years, but I've never forgotten Palestine," says Hafida, who is now almost 90.</description>

 <title> The ABCs of NCD Care</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41616&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Achieving global health security certainly requires managing headline-grabbing infectious diseases such as Ebola, the Zika virus, and others that have not even appeared yet. But it also requires a deeper commitment to systems of long-term preventive care and management of chronic noncommunicable diseases like diabetes.
The World Health Organization recently began sounding the alarm about a deadly new pathogen called Disease X. In fact, Disease X does not actually exist, at least not yet. Rather, it is part of a clever public-awareness campaign by the WHO to prepare people and governments for the threat posed by new infectious diseases.</description>

 <title> Cash and vouchers: the new vogue in humanitarian aid</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41544&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The popular image of humanitarian aid in public consciousness is of trucks loaded with essential foods being handed out to refugees.
But increasingly, humanitarian organisations have been turning away from transporting bags of commodities to crisis areas, and are instead focusing on giving refugees the means to buy their own food.
The UK-based Overseas Development Institute estimates that cash and vouchers now account for around 6% of total humanitarian spending, up from less than 1% in 2004. That is still a small amount but the United Nations World Food Program says cash now accounts for just over a quarter of its assistance.</description>

 <title> Daily life, a struggle for survival in Yemen</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41477&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The conflict that escalated in March 2015 in Yemen has left more than 22 million people - 75 per cent of the population - in need of humanitarian aid, the greatest number in any country in the world.

More than 60 per cent of the population (17.8 million people) are without enough to eat. Over 8.4 million of these people are one step away from famine. About 16 million Yemenis do not have access to safe water sources, with rural areas most affected.</description>

 <description>124 million people in 51 countries experienced high levels of food insecurity, warns a new report.
A new report out today sounds the alarm regarding surging levels of acute hunger. Some 124 million people in 51 countries were affected by acute food insecurity during 2017 " 11 million more people than the year before " according to the latest edition of the Global Report on Food Crises.
The report defines acute food insecurity as hunger so severe that it poses an immediate threat to lives or livelihoods.</description>

 <title> Syria’s Eastern Ghouta: They Fight for Life. We Fight for Them.</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41450&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>What does it feel like to go hungry for days? To be unable to provide your ailing children with food and medicine? To wash your food with dirty contaminated water? What does it feel like to go sleepless for long nights under bombing and shelling, terrified for your family’s lives and yours? To watch your house burn down and your beloved town disappear under never-ending piles of rubble? I can’t help but think of these questions every day, as I speak to people trapped inside Syria’s Eastern Ghouta.
This is the reality there today. An area in Damascus countryside, no bigger than 100 km2, has been home to 400,000 people trapped under siege by Syrian government forces since late 2012, suffering severe shortages of food, water, medicine and other crucial supplies.</description>

 <title> Staying Golden: The legacy of Sierra Leone's "GOLDEN KIDS" radioshow</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41417&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>With a youthful energy and stylish flair, 27-year-old Pascal Masuba speaks passionately. His outfit is carefully coordinated: modern circular glasses, flashy pants covered with images of tigers that he designed himself, a matching scarf. He claims that he was a shy child, an absurd idea to anyone who encounters him. He has unique charisma: when he talks, you’re drawn to listen.

I met him at his presentation called oeImpact Beyond Measure” " a powerful testament to how his time as one of Sierra Leone’s Golden Kids sculpted the rest of his life.

Pascal was born at the dawn of Sierra Leone’s long and brutal civil war. He grew up in its shadows. The conflict lasted for 11 long years, during which sexual abuse against women was rampant, children were recruited as soldiers, human rights violations were widespread.

He discovered himself at the war’s resolution in 2002. Around this time, his father sent him to live with his aunt, Frances Fortune, who then served as Country Director for Search " Sierra Leone.

 <title> The Problem With Capitalist Philanthropy</title>

 <description>In 2015, while on a reporting trip with the International Women’s Media Foundation (IWMF) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), a local journalist told me, oeIt is difficult to go anywhere in the east of the country without touching one of Howard Buffett’s projects.”

Indeed, having invested in a range of initiatives including hydroelectric power plants, road development, and eco-tourism, Howard Buffett is considerably involved in the east of the country. The photographer, farmer, sheriff, former director of the Coca-Cola Company, and son of the third richest man in the world, has poured millions into the region.</description>

 <title> Trump’s Unethical Aid Cuts</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41337&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The truth is that it is the United States that is not paying its fair share. Long ago, the United Nations called on rich countries to raise their foreign aid to 0.7% of their gross national income (which of course is very different from government spending). In 2016, according to OECD figures, the United Arab Emirates, Norway, Luxembourg, Sweden, Denmark, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and Germany reached that level. In contrast, official US aid amounted to only 0.18% of gross national income, or 18 cents for every $100 dollars earned. </description>

 <title> World poverty could be cut in half if all adults completed secondary education</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=41293&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The new analysis on education’s impact on poverty by UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring (GEM) Report team is based on the average effects of education on growth and poverty reduction in developing countries from 1965 to 2010. It shows that nearly 60 million people could escape poverty if all adults had just two more years of schooling. If all adults completed secondary education, 420 million could be lifted out of poverty, reducing the total number of poor people by more than half globally and by almost two-thirds in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia.

Studies have shown that education has direct and indirect impacts on both economic growth and poverty. Education provides skills that boost employment opportunities and incomes while helping to protect people from socio-economic vulnerabilities. A more equitable expansion of education is likely to reduce inequality, lifting the poorest from the bottom of the ladder.</description>

 <description>Reverse anachronistic thinking makes us live in a postcolonial time with post-colonial imaginaries; because of it, we live in a time of informal dictatorship with imaginaries of formal democracy; we live in a time of racialized, sexualized, murdered, dismembered bodies with imaginaries of human rights; we live in a time of walls, trenches dug along borders, forced exiles, internal displacements, with imaginaries of globalization; we live in times of silencings and of sociologies of absences, with imaginaries of a digital communicational orgy; we live in a time of victims turning against victims and oppressed electing their own oppressors, with imaginaries of liberation and social justice. When the great majorities are only free to be miserable in different ways, it is the misery of freedom that reveals itself.</description>

 <description>War and a collapsing economy have left some 100,000 people facing starvation in parts of South Sudan where famine was declared today, three UN agencies warned. A further 1 million people are classified as being on the brink of famine. [...]

The total number of food insecure people is expected to rise to 5.5 million at the height of the lean season in July if nothing is done to curb the severity and spread of the food crisis.

 <title> Trump’s First Victims</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40877&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>In justifying his policy, Trump said that he would oenever forget the lessons of 9/11.” But that is exactly what he seems to have done. The 9/11 hijackers came from Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, all countries unaffected by the new rules. In contrast, a study by Alex Nowrasteh, an immigration policy analyst at the libertarian Cato Institute, concludes that in the 40 years up to the end of 2015, no one has been killed in the US in terrorist attacks by foreigners from any of the seven countries singled out in Trump’s executive order.
Iranians, many of whom are legally resident in the US, are especially aggrieved. According to Trita Parsi, president of the National Iranian American Council, the US itself has produced more Islamic State (ISIS) fighters than Iran " not surprising, given that ISIS is a Sunni organization, and regards Shia, who comprise at least 90% of Iran’s people, as apostates who can justifiably be killed. </description>

 <title> Minority rights must be top priority in humanitarian crisis</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40863&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>oeAs a religious minority in Iraq, Yazidis are not accepted and not protected. What is happening to my community is a human rights crisis,” said Erivan Mahdi, 24, a Yazidi woman working in a camp in Iraq’s Kurdistan region that is sheltering displaced Yazidis who have fled attacks by the Islamic State (ISIS).

Yazidis are a religious community of some 400,000 people who live in the Sinjar region of northern Iraq. ISIS militants attacked Sinjar in 2014, killing thousands of Yazidi men and taking thousands of women captive. A UN investigation in June 2016 denounced the atrocities as genocide and said ISIS has continued targeting Yazidis since 2014 with an aim to oeerase their identity.”

 <title> Aid in reverse: how poor countries develop rich countries </title>
 <link>http://www.theguardian.com/global-development-professionals-network/2017/jan/14/aid-in-reverse-how-poor-countries-develop-rich-countries</link>
 <description>The US-based Global Financial Integrity (GFI) and the Centre for Applied Research at the Norwegian School of Economics recently published some fascinating data. They tallied up all of the financial resources that get transferred between rich countries and poor countries each year: not just aid, foreign investment and trade flows (as previous studies have done) but also non-financial transfers such as debt cancellation, unrequited transfers like workers’ remittances, and unrecorded capital flight (more of this later). What they discovered is that the flow of money from rich countries to poor countries pales in comparison to the flow that runs in the other direction.</description>

 <title> The Concept of the Wall</title>
 <link>http://roarmag.org/magazine/the-concept-of-the-wall/</link>
 <description>As a constitutive aspect of political life, walls and politics are practically indistinct. Not only did the concept of politics as such emerge from the organization of social life in cities (the Greek polis), but from the development of the earliest city-states until well into modernity, these cities were nearly invariably surrounded by walls. Indeed, the very word city stems from citadel " a structure that is nothing without its walls. 
Delimiting and regulating space and movement, walls are key to controlling and administering territory, comprising an elementary tool in the general administration of security. In contrast to neoliberalism’s ideology of freedom and openness, walls " as well as their virtual analogs " not only obstruct movement and intensify state control, but in enclosing rich and poor alike they also abet privatization and precarity the world over.</description>

 <title> Solidarity after Machiavelli</title>
 <link>http://www.eurozine.com/articles/2017-01-10-katznelson-en.html</link>
 <description>Solidarity in liberal democracies is pluralistic, argues political scientist Ira Katznelson; it allows particularities of time and place while satisfying a widely held human interest. Democracy, too, takes a variety of forms and is best measured by historical standards.
I'm sceptical of the argument that you must have strong cultural preconditions before you can have democracy. But I also think that in most of modern history, during the nineteenth, twentieth and twenty-first centuries, we've learned that democracy is not the norm, or that healthy democracy is not the norm, and many democracies suffer either anxieties or fragility. So the question that really challenges us is a fundamental question of social science: under what conditions can democracy thrive? And you're asking whether one of those conditions is cultural. Perhaps. But what we see, or at least what I think we see, is that we've had relatively established and stable democracies in the last half-century under very different cultural conditions. Examples would be post-war Japan, post-war or post-independence India, post-Peron Argentina, post-military dictatorship Brazil and perhaps various post-communist regimes. When you add that they are not exactly democracies as we would like them, then we have to say much more about what we would like. </description>

 <title> Ending Religious Violence in the Middle East</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40681&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>But, as the Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor explains, the real threat is not Islam itself, but oeblock thinking.” Islamic extremists comprise less than 0.5% of the global Muslim population, yet their worldview dominates media coverage not just of Islam, but also of political developments in the Middle East. By erasing the huge differences among Muslims, such coverage reinforces a single, simplistic perception of Islam. That is block thinking. And, as Michael Griffin documents in his book Islamic State: Rewriting History, such thinking is gaining ground in the United States and Europe.
As a result, many have embraced Samuel Huntington’s theory of a oeclash of civilizations,” which assumes that Islam is at odds with modernity. But that assumption ignores the ideas and impact of Islam’s early reformers " figures like Muhammad Abduh and Jamaleddin al-Afghani " who continue to influence Muslims everywhere. </description>

 <title> Civil society on Aleppo: UN General Assembly must act</title>
 <link>http://www.ipsnews.net/2016/12/civil-society-on-aleppo-un-general-assembly-must-act/</link>
 <description>Hundreds of civil society organisations from around the world have united to call on UN member states to step in and demand an end to unlawful attacks in Aleppo.
A global coalition of 223 organisations from over 45 countries including Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and Physicians for Human Rights have expressed deep concern over the ongoing crisis in Aleppo.
oeIt’s very hard to stand back and watch the slow motion destruction of an entire country and of its civilian population,” Human Rights Watch’s UN Director Louis Charbonneau told IPS.</description>

 <title> Should funding agencies also share in the sacrifice of social change? </title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40650&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Every day of every year, in places like Standing Rock and Ferguson and Aleppo and Hong Kong, tens of thousands of people put their lives and livelihoods on the line in the struggle for human rights. If they are paid at all the amounts are very low and the risks are often high, so shared sacrifice is demanded from everyone involved. Opportunities for personal gain are subordinated to solidarity with colleagues and the cause in order to knit together a strong social fabric. Consistency between words and actions is essential in building mutual loyalty and trust.</description>

 <title> In the Mediterranean - Stepping on bodies to survive</title>
 <link>http://making-of.afp.com/marcher-sur-les-morts</link>
 <description>It was the purest form of survival instinct that I have ever seen. Undertaking a desperate, crazy journey to survive another day. Stepping on and over dead bodies -- as carefully as chaos would allow -- to save yourself. I’ve covered the refugee crisis for more than a year. But what I saw at sea off the Libyan coast was just crazy, surreal.</description>

 <title> Syria’s war of extermination signals the end of the international community</title>
 <link>http://theconversation.com/la-guerre-dextermination-en-syrie-et-la-fin-du-sens-commun-66342</link>
 <description>Many have justifiably drawn parallels with Guernica, including the French ambassador to the United Nations in a poignant speech. Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy’s air forces blasted the Spanish city in 1937, while Franco’s troops attacked on the ground. [...] Many people (myself included) have said, time and time again, that Aleppo and Syria have to be saved, that we have a responsibility to protect, that our militaries need to enforce a no-fly zone (which is still a viable possibility). In short, that intervention is a necessity. [...]  Is it still morally possible for me, for any of us, to say something? And, if so, must it be said with the terrible fear that our indignation is just a pathetic way of allaying our conscience?</description>

 <title> Tackling the global refugee crisis: Sharing, not shirking responsibility</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=40372&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>On 19 September 2016 the United Nations (UN) General Assembly collectively, and spectacularly, failed the 21 million refugees of this world. [...] The UN Summit had a reasonable aim: to share responsibility for the world’s refugees among states. [...] Those who do not want to take a fair share will find objections and cite reasons why it is unworkable. But that is a failure of leadership. It is also morally bankrupt and intellectually shoddy to fail to face up to reality. </description>

 <description>For Karam al-Masri, AFP's reporter, photographer and videojournalist in rebel-held Aleppo, the past five years have been a series of tragedies: detention by the regime, and then the Islamic State group, the death of his parents in an air strike, the siege of his hometown, hunger and bombardment. Though it all, he has continued to report, with unwavering courage, the story of his ravaged city. Herewith his story, in his own words and those by Rana Moussaoui, his colleague in Beirut who works with him daily.</description>

 <title> UN Refugee Summit: “No Cause for Comfort”</title>
 <link>http://www.ipsnoticias.net/portuguese/2016/09/ultimas-noticias/sem-motivos-para-se-tranquilizar/</link>
 <description>UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein cautioned against optimism, stating: [...]oeThe bitter truth is that this summit was called because we have been largely failing…it is shameful the victims of abominable crimes should be made to suffer further by our failures to give them protection,” 
[...]The initial draft of the Declaration proposed a global compact with clear commitments including resettling 10 percent of the world’s refugees annually and providing refugee children with education within 30 days. Upon negotiations however, this language was stripped in the final document adopted on Monday, ridding states of any obligation to welcome and educate refugees. Additionally, the international community delayed any form of agreement to a Global Compact until 2018.</description>

 <description>As if human-made armed conflicts, wickedness, rights abuse, gender violence, cruel inequality and climate catastrophes were not enough, now the saying oeGod Always Forgives, Men Sometimes, Nature Never” appear to be more true than ever. See what happens.
Now that the 2015-2016 El Niño "one of the strongest on record" has subsided, La Niña " El Niño’s ‘counterpart’" could strike soon, further exacerbating a severe humanitarian crisis that is affecting millions of people in the most vulnerable communities in tens of countries worldwide, especially in Africa and Asia Pacific.</description>

 <title> Education decisive for migrant integration</title>
 <link>http://www.destatis.de/EN/PressServices/Press/pr/2016/05/PE16_153_p001.html</link>
 <description>Migrants in Germany are 35.4 years old " much younger than people without a migrant background (46.8 years). There are more singles, more people in education and training, and fewer of retirement age. However, immigrants in Germany also are less educated, more seldom in employment, they earn less and are more often threatened by poverty. In fact there are major differences between individual groups of migrants. The impact of education is quite obvious. For migrants, too, a higher level of education means better opportunities on the labour market, higher incomes and a falling risk of poverty. 

This is the situation depicted by the Data Report 2016, a social report for the Federal Republic of Germany released in Berlin today. Statisticians and social researchers have compiled figures and findings that relate to major areas of life, including migration and integration. The data report is edited by the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis), the Federal Agency for Civic Education/bpb, the Berlin Social Science Center (WZB) and the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) at the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW Berlin). </description>

 <description>From 1993 to 2012, 39 of the world’s 153 low and middle-income countries enacted restrictive laws on foreign funding to civil society organizations, both domestic and international. In some cases, these governments banned overseas funding for local actors outright, while in other instances, they imposed new rules restricting which locally-operating NGOs could receive aid, and for what purpose.</description>

Parents testify to the horror of family life under siege, not only dealing with the psychological impact on children terrified of explosions, but the dire consequences of being deprived of food, basic medicine and clean water.</description>

 <title> Boutros Boutros-Ghali Turning Point in the United Nations</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39258&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>He died right at the moment of clashes between the fundamentalists of Islam and the others. He tried to draw attention to this problem that he had clearly seen coming, and he leaves a world where his ideas and his views have become too noble for a world where nationalism, xenophobia and conflict have become the main actors in international relations.
It is time now to look more closely at those ideas and ideals, and less at Boutros Boutros-Ghali as a human being, with its inevitable flaws and shortcoming which is also as he would want to be remembered. With him, we lived through what looks to have been the last great moment of the United Nations, with international law as e basis for cooperation and action.</description>

 <title> Violence is a preventable disease</title>
 <link>http://www.ipsnews.net/2016/02/violence-is-a-preventable-disease/</link>
 <description>I believe Europe (and indeed the world) must now ask the tough questions and make hard, brave and courageous choices: ‘Do we continue down the road of re-arming Europe and the World, and building a culture of militarism and war, creating enemy images and demonizing other countries and their leaders, implementing ‘regime change’ through bogus ‘right to protect’ military intervention, or do we choose to start disarming our conscience, hearts and minds, dismantling our weapons, ending militarism and war and implementing International law?’
Europe and the world needs a New Vision of Unity and Demilitarization of Regions, with power devolved to communities where people feel empowered and true democracy can be established. A demilitarized world is something we can all work together to build.</description>

 <title> Oral cholera vaccines to double to 6 million does after UN health agency approves new supplier</title>

 <description>Faced with a global shortage of oral cholera vaccines (OCV), the United Nations health agency announced today that supply should double this year to six million doses, with further increases later, after it approved a third producer to fight a disease that kills up to 142,000 people annually.
Last year, Sudan and Haiti asked the UN World Health Organization (WHO) for supplies to conduct pre-emptive vaccination campaigns, but the requests could not be filled because of the global shortfall.

 <title> Flatlining support for Syrians needs jolt at London conference</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39180&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Rich countries meeting in London this week must commit to real changes that will improve the lives of millions of Syrians, said Oxfam. The aid funding and resettlement places offered so far have often been so low as to be little more than token gestures. Syrians in need are waiting for actions not just kind words and promises.
While some world powers have led by example when it comes to assisting Syrians - who are still being killed, displaced, and impoverished in their hundreds of thousands - most countries still fall far short according to Oxfam's new fair share analysis. In 2015, just over half the money to fund the appeals designed to help people in Syria and surrounding countries was given.</description>

 <title> The Lesson from Davos: No Connection to Reality</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39126&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>So, let us agree on the lesson from Davos. The rich and powerful had all the necessary data for focusing on existential issues for the planet and its inhabitants. Yet they failed to do so. This is a powerful example of the disconnection between the concern of citizens and their elite. The political and financial system is more and more self reverent: but is also fast losing legitimacy in the eyes of many people. Alternative candidates like Donald Trump or Matteo Salvini in Italy, or governments like those of Hungary and Poland, would have never been possible without a massive discontent. What is increasingly at stage is democracy itself? Are we entering in a Weimar stage of the world?</description>

 <title> UNESCO presents new finance model that could triple the availability of textbooks</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=39059&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>According to the paper, Every Child Should Have a Textbook, centralized financing mechanisms could allow for a US$3 reduction in the price of each textbook and save almost US$1 billion a year from the cost of learning materials in sub-Saharan Africa alone. Kenya, for example, could save $US64 million from its textbook bill, Malawi US$33 million.
The report argues that improved financial models could help triple the number of textbooks available for children worldwide, thereby improving educational achievements, particularly in poor countries hampered by the high cost of textbooks today. According to the study, providing textbooks to all students could increase literacy scores by 5-20%.</description>

 <title> Assad is starving his own people – with impunity</title>
 <link>http://en.qantara.de/content/civil-war-in-syria-assad-is-starving-his-own-people-with-impunity</link>
 <description>Starving civilians as a method of warfare is prohibited " as is clearly set out in the Geneva Convention. A contravention of this constitutes a war crime, even in internal state conflicts. In Syria however, this has been common practice. For years. And as time has gone by, on all sides of the war. This profoundly gruesome and inhuman tactic is being employed by the rebels and the Islamic State terror militia.
However, no side deploys the besieging of civilian areas, indiscriminate bombardment and starvation as a weapon in as systematic a fashion as the regime of Bashar al-Assad and its allied militia, such as the Iranian-backed Hezbollah. If they lose control of territory, they then try to unleash all the means at their disposal to make life hell for the people living in those areas.</description>

 <description>More than 16 million babies were born in conflict zones in 2015 " 1 in 8 of all births worldwide this year " UNICEF said today, a figure that underscores the vulnerability faced by increasing numbers of children.
oeEvery two seconds, a newborn takes its first breath in the midst of conflict, often in terrifying circumstances and without access to medical care,” said UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake. oeToo many children are now starting their lives in extreme circumstances " from conflict to natural disasters, poverty, disease or malnutrition. Can there be a worse start in life?”

 <title> Whose Lives Matter? A Crisis of Solidarity at the Climate Talks in Paris</title>
 <link>http://www.truth-out.org/opinion/item/33983-whose-lives-matter-a-crisis-of-solidarity-at-the-climate-talks-in-paris</link>
 <description>The medical anthropologist Paul Farmer once wrote that "the idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that is wrong with the world." For many in the United Nations climate negotiations in Paris this week, this idea is at the heart of disagreement on a pathway forward.
Climate change is not primarily an institutional, technological or scientific problem; it is a crisis of solidarity between nations and peoples globally. It is the belief that major polluting countries and wealthy people have more of a right to fill the atmosphere with carbon. It is the idea that the flooding of Miami under rising seas represents more of a catastrophe than that of Dhaka. It is the lack of a shared historical memory that links the suffering of the economically marginal and climate vulnerable to the imperialist actions of wealthy countries and corporations. It is the fact that some lives, and largely those of people of color, women and Indigenous peoples around the world, are treated as mattering less.</description>

 <title> Human Rights in Climate Pact Under Fire</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38884&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>A handful of countries were blocking human rights references in important parts of the climate change agreement as ministers gathered in Paris on December 7, 2015, to continue climate change negotiations, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch said today.
Norway, Saudi Arabia, and the United States have been criticized by some countries and nongovernmental organizations for seeking to eliminate key references to rights in the document. Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Philippines have advocated including human rights language.
The important role of respecting, protecting, and fulfilling human rights in relation to the impact of climate change on vulnerable populations has been increasingly recognized in international climate change negotiations. At the negotiations, groups including trade unions and coalitions representing indigenous peoples, women, youth, and people in small island nations have been particularly vocal in calling for strong rights language in the treaty.</description>

 <description>With Ethiopia battling its worst drought in 30 years due to the El Niño weather pattern, with 8.2 million people already in urgent need of food aid, the United Nations has sent an emergency health team to help support the Government’s response to a crisis that is expected to become even worse over the next eight months.
oeThe food security emergency is coming against a background of multiple ongoing epidemics in the country,” the interim Director of Emergency Risk Management and Humanitarian Response at the UN World Health Organization (WHO), Michelle Gayer, said today.</description>

 <title> Immediate Push on Climate-Smart Development Can Keep More than 100 Million People Out of Poverty</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38813&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Climate change is already preventing people from escaping poverty, and without rapid, inclusive and climate-smart development, together with emissions-reductions efforts that protect the poor, there could be more than 100 million additional people in poverty by 2030, according to a new World Bank Group report released before the international climate conference in Paris.
The report, Shock Waves: Managing the Impacts of Climate Change on Poverty, finds that poor people are already at high risk from climate-related shocks, including crop failures from reduced rainfall, spikes in food prices after extreme weather events, and increased incidence of diseases after heat waves and floods. It says such shocks could wipe out hard-won gains, leading to irreversible losses, driving people back into poverty, particularly in Africa and South Asia.</description>

 <title> Refugees endangered and dying due to EU reliance on fences and gatekeepers</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38769&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>In the wake of last Friday’s atrocious attacks on Paris the European Union (EU) must resist the urge to further seal off its external borders, which would continue to fuel a range of human rights abuses while doing nothing to enhance security or halt the influx of desperate refugees, said Amnesty International as it published a new report today.
The organization is calling for managed, safe, legal routes into Europe and fair, efficient, rigorous screening processes that would meet the needs of refugees seeking protection in Europe and address the need for identifying possible security threats.
oeGiving in to fear in the wake of the atrocious attacks on Paris will not protect anyone. The numbers fleeing persecution and conflict have not gone away, nor has their entitlement to protection. In the wake of this tragedy, the failure to extend solidarity to people seeking shelter in Europe, often after fleeing the very same kind of violence, would be a cowardly abdication of responsibility and a tragic victory for terror over humanity.</description>

 <title> Redefining the "Syrian" conflict</title>
 <link>http://en.qantara.de/content/chronicle-of-a-war-foretold-redefining-the-syrian-conflict</link>
 <description>The war waging in Syria, hijacked by opposing ideologies just months after it began, has had an irrevocable impact on the Syrian people. Although not much is heard of Syrians outside the refugee camps, Americans, Europeans, Russians, Turks, Iranians, and Arabs hold meeting after meeting to agree and disagree, coalesce and collide, in an attempt to halt the "Syrian conflict".
After five years of the Syrian war, we can recognise "our" conflicting parties on the ground " Assad, IS, the rebels and the Kurds. Each one of these conflicting parties has regional and international backers, who ironically do not agree with each other about whom they are fighting for or against.</description>

 <title> The refugee crisis outside of Europe is much worse</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38739&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>There is a refugee crisis happening right now. Millions of Syrians have fled from their homes, fearing violence, sexual abuse, child abuse, forced conscription into the army and death. The countries where they are seeking refuge are overwhelmed.
The majority of these Syrian children, women and men who have fled their homes have sought safety inside Syria. Syria is the most important host country for displaced Syrians. According to UN figures, there are now at least 7.6 million internally displaced people within Syria, many of them in areas of the country that are not at all safe by any reasonable standards. The issue of providing a safe refuge for each one of these 7.6 million people, literally in fear for their lives, is very much a crisis.
There is also a refugee crisis outside of Syria.

 <title> Tuberculosis mortality nearly halved since 1990</title>

 <description>The fight against tuberculosis is paying off, with this year’s death rate nearly half of what it was in 1990. Nevertheless, 1.5 million people died from TB in 2014. Most of these deaths could have been prevented, according to WHO’s Global tuberculosis report 2015, which was released today in Washington.
To reduce TB’s overall burden, detection and treatment gaps need to be closed, funding shortfalls filled and new diagnostics, drugs and vaccines developed, according to the report.</description>

 <title> Catastrophic moral failure as rich countries leave millions of refugees to cruel and uncertain fates</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=38634&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Horrific violence in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and multiple conflicts in sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere have brought the global refugee population to historic highs. Meanwhile Southeast Asia’s oesailing season” is again getting under way, with many more refugees likely to join the thousands of Rohingya who have fled persecution in Myanmar, only to fall prey to trafficking and other abuses.
The response to these global refugee crises has been shameful, particularly from the world’s richest countries, who have ignored appeals for humanitarian aid and to resettle vulnerable people. Wealthy countries have offered resettlement places to only around a tenth of the 1.15 million people who need them. Meanwhile developing counties are hosting millions of refugees with almost no support.
oeThe unprecedented multiple global refugee crises are leaving millions of people in desperation, but the response of the wealthy countries is a catastrophic failure. This is a pivotal moment which will define current world leaders’ legacy for generations to come " history will judge them very harshly unless they change course,” said Salil Shetty, Secretary General of Amnesty International.</description>

 <description>On the 4th anniversary of the youngest state in the world, South Sudan is experiencing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis. Almost 8 million people, two-thirds of the total population, are food insecure and as many as 3.8m are going hungry. More than 2 million people have been forced to flee their homes because of the fighting, preventing thousands of people from getting the help they urgently need. Oxfam and the European Commission warn that without a political solution to achieve peace, the situation in South Sudan will worsen.  </description>

 <description>The region of Xinjiang, where ethnic tensions between China's majority Han Chinese and minority Uyghur Muslims have at times erupted into violence, has been a sensitive topic across Chinese social media ever since riots shook the regional capital Urumqi back in the summer of 2009.

Recently, a new song titled oeWhat Has Xinjiang Done to You?” has broken the silence and triggered discussion about stereotypes and inter-cultural misunderstandings on China's Twitter-like Weibo platform. The song is written by Liu Shuang (Weibo screen name: oeCall me Mr. Leon”)</description>

 <description>The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) announced today that it will, along with partners, reach some 105,000 displaced people in Yemen’s main southern city of Aden over the next few days, while warning that with millions in need amid the deepening crisis, its supplies are now running low. 
WFP in 2014 found that 10.6 million people, or 41 per cent of the population in Yemen, were food insecure. Of these, 5 million people were found to be severely food insecure and in need of food assistance. It is estimated today, following the escalation of violence, that more than 12 million Yemenis are food insecure. </description>

 <description>The UN High Commissioner for Refugees told an international conference of donors on Tuesday the Syrian war had reached a dangerous tipping point, with increasing desperation among refugees and in host communities and a widening gap between humanitarian needs and available funding.
In addition to the 12.9 million Syrians inside the country who need life-saving aid, over 3.9 million Syrians are registered as refugees in neighbouring countries. Guterres told the delegates to the pledging conference, the third hosted by Kuwait, that conditions continue to deteriorate.</description>

 <title> Toward an Ecology of Sharing</title>
 <link>http://www.theeuropean-magazine.com/luce-irigaray/9937-sharing-in-a-global-and-multicultural-context</link>
 <description>We live in a world which is perpetually on the verge of tightening, or altogether closing, its political and other human-made borders. Threats of terrorism, illegal migrations, and global epidemics are cited as some of the main concerns behind such a move. Fear of intrusions, fanned out of proportion by certain political factions, turns the world into clusters of sealed ghettoes and makes genuine sharing of it impossible. But a deeper source for these developments is the hegemony of a possessive attitude that regulates our relation to the places, in which we dwell, including our countries, cultures, and natural environments.</description>

 <description>Angela Merkel has again vowed to protect Muslims living in Germany from prejudice, but she also stressed: "religious freedom and tolerance doesn't mean that sharia law stands above the constitution." If Merkel were not the German chancellor, but a citizen of Saudi Arabia, this statement could likely earn her a draconian punishment - just like Raif Badawi. The Saudi blogger was sentenced to 1,000 lashes as well as 10 years in prison and a hefty fine for what was deemed an "insult" to Islam.</description>

Some Republican lawmakers and U.S. media outlets criticized Obama's administration for not sending a top leader to the march, which featured leaders from France, Britain, Germany, and Israel. "I think it's fair to say that we should have sent someone with a higher profile," White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters, adding Obama would have liked to have gone.</description>

 <title> We are all la Republique!</title>
 <link>http://www.dw.de/opinion-we-are-all-la-republique/a-18184847</link>
 <description>One might almost envy the French today - it was a powerful demonstration. After the bloody events of the past week, they have shown an admirable commitment to the history and values of their nation and its ideals. Sunday's march of more than 1.5 million people in Paris - and around 2 million in demonstrations throughout the rest of the country - was a strong stand for democracy, and against violence and fear. The French people do not want to be intimidated by terrorist acts, and above all, they do not want what's most important to be taken away: their freedom of expression. It belongs to France's oldest values, and part of the spirit of the nation. Here, even extreme opinions can be expressed without fear of reprisal, thanks to democracy, or so the theory goes.</description>

 <title> Photography as Activism: The Role of Visual Media in Humanitarian Crises</title>
 <link>http://hir.harvard.edu/archives/7320</link>
 <description>Since the camera was invented in 1826, it has been used to document everything from social injustice, inequality, famine, war, and human rights abuses to uplifting scenes of humanity, brotherhood, victory, love, and hope. Because photography has the power to visually reveal the truth, throughout history photographs have made huge impacts on social consciousness and ultimately shaped public opinion on many destructive government policies.</description>

 <title> Cameroon and the Growing Threat of Boko Haram Contagion</title>
 <link>http://theglobalobservatory.org/analysis/802-cameroon-growing-threat-boko-haram.html</link>
 <description>The Kolofata incident was by no means the first attack in Cameroon to be attributed to Boko Haram. Indeed, over the past 18 months, the sect has conducted a number of armed incursions in the country’s Extreme-Nord administrative division, which shares a long and porous border with Nigeria’s insurgent-embattled Adamawa and Borno states.

Despite progress in poverty reduction, BRICS countries are still home to nearly half of the world\'s poor (1.7 billion people), and, with the exception of Brazil, all are facing rising levels of inequality, which hinders economic growth, makes economies more volatile, fuels social unrest and conflict, and limits the ability to reduce poverty.</description>

 <title> World needs to get off the bench and get in the game on resolving conflict in Africa</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36995&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>One of the main reasons people don’t have enough food to eat is because of these conflicts. "The UN estimates that $2.2 billion is needed to prevent hunger and starvation in South Sudan, Sudan, Somalia and the Central African Republic.

These conflicts need to end so that people can return to their homes and rebuild their lives. Conflicts don’t just ignite overnight. The African Union’s Peace and Security Council has measures in place that warn of conflict. If we can measure them, we can prevent them too. </description>

 <title> 'Deglobalisation' Is the Way to Reduce Inequality</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36959&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>If we care about reducing inequality, we must seek new solutions to the problem. One approach is oedeglobalisation”, a proposal developed by Walden Bello and Focus on the Global South in response to the Asian financial crisis of 1997.
 
For deglobalisation, there is no oeone size fits all” model like neoliberalism or centralized bureaucratic socialism. Instead, according to this scheme, diversity is expected and encouraged, as it is in nature.</description>

 <description>Brazil is set to host the World Cup this year and the Olympics in 2016. In preparation Brazil is evicting 200,000 people from their homes, eliminating poor neighborhoods, defunding public services, investing in a militarized police and surveillance state, using slave and prison labor to build outrageous stadiums unlikely to be filled more than once, and "improving" a famous old stadium (the world's largest for 50 years) by removing over half the capacity in favor of luxury seats. Meanwhile, popular protests and graffiti carry the message: "We want 'FIFA standard' hospitals and schools!" </description>

 <title> Climate change: a challenge that goes beyond politics</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36723&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>It has rained incessantly in the Bolivian Amazon and in the Valleys. The waters that have flooded our territory since January are thought to be the result of the worst rains in 40 years.  More than 60,000 families have been affected " meaning that at least 350,000 people have had to leave their homes.

Climate change is not just a scientific issue, nor is it just something which is of exclusive interest to UN negotiations, nor it is a warning for the future: it is already present in our times, in our territories, and it comes with violence. Climate change affects people’s lives and it is already claiming many victims.</description>

 <description>A new harvest is ready, and Celestine Aisa Maino, a seasonal worker from Papua New Guinea, has just embarked on her latest overseas journey. Working on a large Australian fruit farm gives her more income, and an ILO project helps her to use it to build a brighter future for her and her family. With financial support from the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the ILO is working with the Government of PNG to implement a programme (oeStrengthening Labour Migration Management in Papua New Guinea and Nauru in the context of the Australia Seasonal Worker Program”) designed to help the government prepare workers better for their departure abroad and their return. This includes training on using their skills and savings to start a small business. </description>

 <description>Sexual harassment and assault against women remain rife, our organisations warn in a report released today, constituting major obstacles to their participation in the political transition of their country. Successive governments have failed to take measures to stop violence against women and such crimes continue to meet with complete impunity. Attacks in Tahrir Square represent the most visible manifestation of a long-standing systemic problem. Women in Egypt are subjected to daily sexual harassment and assault on the streets, on public transport and in the workplace. </description>

 <title> World press freedom index 2014</title>
 <link>http://https://rsf.org/fr/ranking/2014</link>
 <description>The 2014 World Press Freedom Index spotlights the negative impact of conflicts on freedom of information and its protagonists. The ranking of some countries has also been affected by a tendency to interpret national security needs in an overly broad and abusive manner to the detriment of the right to inform and be informed. This trend constitutes a growing threat worldwide and is even endangering freedom of information in countries regarded as democracies. Finland tops the index for the fourth year running, closely followed by Netherlands and Norway, like last year. At the other end of the index, the last three positions are again held by Turkmenistan, North Korea and Eritrea, three countries where freedom of information is non-existent. </description>

The story of Sabeen, who fled Syria just 24 hours after giving birth to her baby, will stay with me forever. As she sat on the floor of her caravan in Zaatari camp, in Jordan, she quietly looked into the distance and told me how, when approaching her due date, she had been forced to leave her home in Syria. Sabeen’s neighbor’s house had just been razed to the ground by heavy shelling, and she and her husband feared their house might be next.</description>

 <title> Elimination of Racial Discrimination - 21 March</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36610&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is an opportunity for women and men, along with the whole United Nations System, to renew their commitment to building a world of justice, equality and dignity, where racial discrimination has no place. Racial discrimination violates the inherent rights and dignity of women and men. It holds back entire societies from lasting peace, and it sets obstacles before inclusive, sustainable development. Bigotry impoverishes the world, seeking to divide humanity against itself and undermine the inexhaustible strength that lies in our diversity.</description>

 <description> In advance of International Women’s Day on 8 March 2014, WHO is launching new guidance to help countries ensure human rights are respected in providing more girls, women, and couples with the information and services they need to avoid unwanted pregnancies. An estimated 222 million girls and women who do not want to get pregnant, or who want to delay their next pregnancy, are not using any method of contraception. Access to contraception information and services will allow better planning for families and improved health.</description>

 <description>Donors have provided only 6 per cent of the $247 million that the United Nations needs over the next 100 days to ease the oemega-tragedy” in strife-torn Central African Republic (CAR), where nearly 900,000 people have been driven from their homes and now lack the very basics of food, water, medical care and shelter.</description>

 <link>http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_MEMO-14-3_fr.htm</link>

 <title> This Time, the UN Can’t Let Africa Fail</title>
 <link>http://www.hrw.org/news/2014/01/07/time-un-can-t-let-africa-fail</link>
 <description>Until recently, thousands of people escaping violence in the Central African Republic at least could find refuge in the capital, Bangui. I was one of them. I had been in the northern town of Bouca where a massacre of civilians sheltering in a church compound was narrowly averted by the arrival of African Union troops. And so I was grateful, days later, to reach the relative safety of Bangui.</description>

 <title> UNHCR releases data for first half 2013 showing sharp rise in forced displacement</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=36378&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>UNHCR warned today in a report that 2013 was on track for some of the highest levels of forced displacement ever seen by the agency, due to unusually large numbers of new refugees and internally displaced people. The report said 5.9 million people were forced to flee their homes in the first six months of the year, compared with 7.6 million for all of 2012. The biggest producer of new displacement was Syria.</description>

 <title> Ocean and globalisation</title>
 <link>http://www.mondialisations.org/php/public/art.php?id=27735&amp;lan=EN</link>
 <description>Without a doubt the ocean is the most important part of the Earth, covering as it does 71% of its surface. Important because, along with the atmosphere, it is an essential component of the climate system which conditions all life. Important also for the resources it contains. Important, more indirectly, because it is in the ocean’s depths that resides the motor of the Earth crust’s dynamics, the ocean depths being the main characteristics of our planet. Important, finally, as it is the probable origin of life itself. Thus it is evident that the Ocean is a oenecessary partner” of globalisations. In fact, one can say it "is" the centre of the world. </description>

 <description>Resistance to Neoliberal capitalist globalisation, to the incommensurate power of the multinationals and financial markets, the oukases of the IMF and WTO… since Seattle (1999), a vast social movement on a planetary scale, at the heart of which organises little by little the globalisation of solidarities.  This movement marks itself out with its resolutely universalist character of diverse outdated ‘antiglobalisation’ protests, fundamentalist, nationalist, xenophobic or intolerant, of an ethnic or religious nature " of which the terrorist attack on the Twin Towers in New York (11 September 2001) appears the most spectacular example.</description>
