NIGERIA: Judge Orders Gas Flaring to Stop Immediately

Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON, Nov 14 2005 (IPS) – In a breakthrough for environmental and human rights activists, a federal high court judge in Nigeria has ruled that gas flaring in the Niger Delta violates the rights to life, health and dignity of the region s residents and ordered the practice halted immediately.
The ruling by Justice C.V. Nwokorie came in a case brought by the minority Iwerekan community filed last summer and appears to apply to similar suits by seven other minority communities. They include the Ogoni ethnic group, which just last week marked the tenth anniversary of the notorious execution by the former military junta in Nigeria of writer Kenneth Saro-wiwa and eight other Ogoni environmental rights activists.

The judgment also follows the unprecedented 200…

HEALTH-MOROCCO: Civil ‘War’ Over Condoms

Abderrahim El Ouali

CASABLANCA, Jan 26 2006 (IPS) – When the Moroccan Association for the Fight Against AIDS launched a campaign last month to raise money to fight AIDS, it had no idea it would have another kind of fight on its hands.
The association is now fighting Islamists who accuse it if spreading the culture of the condom through its telethon to raise funds.

The telethon was a live programme on the 2M TV channel Dec. 9 to raise funds for people suffering from HIV or AIDS. It followed two earlier telethons for the disabled and for children suffering from heart conditions.

The television campaign organised by the Moroccan Association for Fight Against AIDS (ALCS), an independent group, raised 240,000 euro (295,000 dollars).

The organisation says ab…

AFRICA: Warming Threatens Key Water Sources

Jim Lobe

WASHINGTON, Mar 2 2006 (IPS) – Declines in rainfall caused by global warming threaten rivers and other local sources of fresh water in densely populated areas of Africa, according to a new study published here by Science magazine Friday.
Some of these areas, particularly in southern Africa, already suffer periodic droughts, so further declines in rainfall could have devastating implications for people who depend on local water supplies, according to the two authors, Maarten de Wit and Jacek Stankiewicz of the Africa Earth Observatory Network (AEON) at the University of Capetown.

Other particularly vulnerable areas include a narrow band of territory that stretches from Senegal eastward to Sudan and crosses several important water bodies that supply populations…

RIGHTS-NAMIBIA: Leaving Prostitution – Easier Said Than Done

Nhamoinesu Mseyamwa

WINDHOEK, Apr 6 2006 (IPS) – Everything revolves around money and without work there is no money, says 33-year-old Maria Xoagub*, a mother of three who earns her living as a prostitute. Sometimes we try stopping going to sell our bodies in the streets, but when poverty takes over we are back there.
Xoagub s story is one heard frequently from Namibia s sex workers. In a country where the unemployment rate hovers around 30 percent, prospects of getting a job outside prostitution are slim for sex workers, many of whom are illiterate. According to the 2005 Human Development Report , produced by the United Nations Development Programme, about 35 percent of the country s 1.8 million people live below the poverty line of one U.S. dollar a day.

Kristin Palitza*

DURBAN, Jun 5 2006 (IPS) – The recent United Nations General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS (UNGASS) has tested relations between government and civil society in South Africa.
UNGASS saw more than 180 delegations meet at U.N. headquarters in New York, from May 31 to Jun. 2, to report on their countries advances in countering the pandemic since the first special session held in 2001. At this meeting, nations promised to intensify the battle against HIV/AIDS and reverse escalating infection rates.

South Africa received criticism over the progress report it submitted for last week s deliberations; this document is used by the U.N. to evaluate the efficiency of each country s HIV/AIDS programmes. (Figures on the website of the Joint United Nations P…

Alberto Cremonesi

UNITED NATIONS, Jul 17 2006 (IPS) – Negotiations on the first-ever International Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities could conclude as early as this August when countries will resume their discussions about the need for a broad treaty to protect disabled people.
We are doing the best, it is a challenge. We are aiming high. I could even go as far as to say we are aiming too high because there are very complicated issues, very technical issues, Jorge Ballestero of the Mission of Costa Rica, one of the leading diplomats negotiating the convention, told IPS.

Of course, we are kind of tired because it has been a very long year, but the good thing is that everyone is in such a very positive mood that everyone wants to have this as soon …
