Este año, la Casa del Deporte implementará un total de 19 escuelas gratuitas en Viña del Mar, con once disciplinas entre las que se encuentran como novedades el balonmano y la halterofilia.
Entre las postales que dejaron los X Juegos Suramericanos ODESUR Santiago 2014, además de la histórica cosecha de medallas que completaron un total de 129 preseas para nuestro país, se cuentan recintos repletos de público vitoreando a deportistas como si se tratasen de eliminatorias mundialistas de futbol, evidenciando el gran interés y pasión que sienten los chilenos por deportes muy distintos al balompié.
Consciente de esta atención por variadas disciplinas, es que la Ilustre Municipalidad de Viña del Mar, a través de la Casa del Deporte, hace ya casi una década, ha implementado de forma gratuita en toda la ciudad, un programa compuesto por Escuelas Deportivas, y que este año junto a las ya clásicas Tenis, taekwondo, Karate, Natación, Basquetbol, Hockey Patín, Gimnasia Rítmica, Voleibol y Rugby, trae importantes novedades, como la inclusión de dos nuevas especialidades deportivas.
El programa de Escuelas Deportivas, este 2014, da la bienvenida a su oferta al cada día más popular Balonmano o Handball, y que después de la brillante participación de las selecciones chilenas masculinas y femeninas de la disciplina, premiadas con bronce en ODESUR 2014, y que justamente jugaron en Viña del Mar, es que niños, jóvenes y adultos, pusieron sus ojos sobre esta entretenida rama deportiva.
Junto con el balonmano, la Halterofilia o Levantamiento Olímpico de Pesas, también se suma al programa Escuelas Deportivas, y consiste en el levantamiento de la mayor cantidad de peso posible en una barra en cuyos extremos se fijan varios discos, los cuales determinan el peso final que se levanta, y que reciben el nombre de “haltera”.
Orientadas a niños entre 7 y 14 años, las Escuelas Deportivas 2014, suman un total de diecinueve, y para la inscripción en cualquiera de las once disciplinas de este año, sólo hay que asistir al lugar, el día y la hora fijada para la clase, y llenar una matrícula gratuita con los datos personales del alumno, y la firma de un apoderado mayor de edad autorizando la participación del menor en el taller. Te esperamos!

Igualmente Jesús Santillán Medina refirió que gracias al trabajo que se ha realizado de la mano con el Gobierno del Estado, en los tepezalenses existe un renovado ánimo de crecimiento y desarrollo, así como la implementación de nuevas estrategias que permitan buscar mejores condiciones de vida.
Igualmente, el alcalde Jesús Medina Santillán reconoció la incansable labor del Gobernador Carlos Lozano de la Torre para resolver las necesidades de empleo de los habitantes de este municipio, al realizar una efectiva promoción para que nuevas empresas se comprometan a resolver las urgentes necesidades de la población del lugar “y hoy como nunca, se ha visto una participación que nos permite ofrecer apoyo a familias de escasos recursos económicos, los materiales que requieren para tener una casa, una escuela y espacios dignos para la población”.

“Los presentes tiempos exigen construir y avanzar, no obstaculizar ni retroceder, exigen acordar y unir. El presidente de la República Enrique Peña Nieto ha dado el ejemplo de que en la construcción de acuerdos, en la suma de esfuerzos y en una política articulada, el único que gana es México. Soy orgullosamente priísta, en los postulados de mi partido concibo la plataforma de buen gobierno, los tomo como la principal directriz de un ejercicio responsable de gobierno”, concluyó el alcalde de este municipio.

Agahi to implement the Nokia-UNESCO Mobile Learning initiative to deliver quality education to teachers
Nokia Pakistan and UNESCO collaborate to launch Mobile Learning for Teacher’s in Pakistan using Nokia Education Delivery App to facilitate teacher training via mobile phones
Nokia Pakistan and UNESCO Islamabad launched the project “Mobile Learning Project for Teacher’s Professional Development” today as formal collaboration in the presence of senior government officials, Nokia representatives and UNESCO representatives. As part of this program, UNESCO and Nokia are joining hands, where Nokia is providing its mobile phones and its application “Nokia Education Delivery (NED) for UNESCO’s project on ‘use of ICT for professional development of public school teachers’ in remote areas.
Since 2011 NED has turned into an open source solution to improve livelihoods, and in order to support such mobile learning innovations to be filled with life in Pakistan, The project will be implemented by AGAHI, a UNESCO partner and a non-profit foundation working in the area of communication and media policy design.
Nokia developed NED to allow using a mobile phone to access and download videos and other educational materials from a constantly updated education library. Operating in hundreds of schools and having reached millions of students in the Philippines, Tanzania, Chile and Colombia, Nokia Education Delivery has been shown to improve study results and increase retention among students.
This collaboration is part of the agreement signed last year between UNESCO and Nokia at international level to promote the use of mobile technologies to further the objectives of “Education for All”. As part of this agreement Nokia is developing applications and new Mobile technologies offering access to information and enrich learning environments at global level.
In Pakistan, through the project “Mobile Learning for Teachers” Nokia’s Education Delivery application will help UNESCO to enable the delivery of high- quality educational materials to teachers who lack training and resources though mobile phones giving an opportunity to teachers to train themselves on the same level as professionally competent teachers.
Speaking about the project, UNESCO Director, Kozue Kai Nagata said, “In 21st century Public- private partnerships are enjoying growing attention and support as a new and sustainable modality for development. We are confident to collaborate with Nokia to provide us with the best platform to train public school teachers. Nokia Education Delivery is fit to match our need of delivering quality training to a large number of public school teachers across Pakistan through the project named “Mobile Learning for Teachers”
Amir Jahangir, President AGAHI and a Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum, shared his views on the launch that “Pakistan is a knowledge starved country, where universal education has its own challenges. To meet the target of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG) on education, Pakistan needs to address its education challenges through innovation and technology which can reach to a larger population with cost effective solutions”.
Speaking about the launch of NED program, Ulrike Vott Nokia Sustainability Manager for Middle East said, “Nokia Education Delivery facilitates education in a fun and interactive way. In addition to the NED software, Nokia offers program implementation support for the benefit of Pakistan’s education landscape.” The Nokia Education Delivery software system has two modules. The first module is installed on a Nokia mobile phone and contains a browse able catalog of educational videos. The second module is installed on the computer of the education administrator. It manages the organization’s mobile video library, so that videos can be added, deleted and updated. It also provides information on the usage of different videos.”
This unique pilot project for Pakistan has been initiated by UNESCO and AGAHI aims at using Mobile phones as medium for training teachers, where the teachers in remote areas will be equipped with devices, SIMs, a software solution and high quality educational content. The course for training and capacity building will be developed into video files and will be transmitted step by step according to curriculum on the phones provided to teachers. Over the course of the training period, teachers will be tested via SMS on regular basis and as an incentive, those who will score highest in tests will receive free mobile top ups. At the end of the course, test scores of all teachers will be aggregated and the passing teachers will be awarded certificate in the final workshop.
AGAHI is UNESCO implementing partner in Pakistan. A not for profit, AGAHI specializes in creating communication, information and media policy design tools, that enables the stakeholders to engage in information collaboration on knowledge-based platforms. AGAHI works in building the capacity of knowledge workers in creating content based on best practices to disseminate information in building a more integrated knowledge ecosystem.

El ministro de Justicia y Derechos Humanos, Daniel Figallo Rivadeneyra, resaltó la importancia de la citada política nacional, presentada ante las autoridades trujillanas, hecho que destaca el compromiso asumido por el Ejecutivo a favor de los adolescentes infractores.
Cine sunt tinerii NEET și cum sunt ajutați
Vasile are 18 ani și de trei luni este angajat oficial ca bucătar într-un local de tip fast-food din orașul Ungheni. Este îndemânatic, atent la detalii și păstrează o curățenie impecabilă la locul de muncă. Tânărul este unul din cei 80 de beneficiari direcți ai proiectului „Integrare socio-profesională pentru tinerii NEET” implementat de Asociația Obștească pentru Copii și Tineret „Făclia”, cu sprijinul financiar al Uniunii Europene și Fundației Soros Moldova. În cadrul proiectului Vasile a făcut un curs de bucătar și a reușit să găsească un serviciu pe placul său.
NEET este un termen care provine din limba engleză, acronim pentru Not in Education, Employment or Training și se referă la tinerii care nu sunt încadrați în câmpul muncii și nici nu urmează o formă de instruire sau pregătire profesională.
Cine sunt tinerii NEET
„Sunt tineri pe care nu poți să-i identifici la prima vedere. Sunt cumva invizibili și defavorizați, nu numai din perspectivă financiară sau socială, ci și educațională. Mulți adolescenți renunță la școală sau nu sunt interesați de educație, pentru că au o așa-numită lene socială sau au preluat comportamentul părinților. Dacă părinții nu au făcut studii, atunci este posibil ca și copiii să urmeze aceeași cale”, lămurește Carolina Butușneanu, coordonatoarea serviciului creat de AO „Făclia”.
Proiectul „Integrare socio-profesională pentru tinerii NEET” propune o abordare complexă, care cuprinde identificarea și implementarea acțiunilor necesare pentru incluziunea socio-profesională a tinerilor vulnerabili cu vârsta cuprinsă între 15-18 ani, din raioanele Ungheni, Călărași și Nisporeni.
În cadrul proiectului a fost creat un serviciu prietenos adolescenților care le oferă activități de orientare vocațională, formare și integrare profesională, consiliere psihologică, dezvoltare personală, stagii de practică, informații despre oportunități în carieră, mediere și angajare asistată în câmpul muncii.
Cum sunt selectați beneficiarii proiectului
Carolina Butușneanu explică modul în care au fost identificați beneficiarii proiectului. „Noi am înțeles că trebuie să avem un reprezentant antenă, în fiecare localitate, ca să ne ghideze către acești tineri. Am ajuns la concluzia că profesorii sunt cei care cunosc cel mai bine situația adolescenților din comunitate. Ei au fost cei care ne-au ajutat și au ghidat elevii către serviciul creat de noi”, spune coordonatoarea proiectului. Astfel, mai mulți profesori din localitățile din raioanele Călărași, Nisporeni și Ungheni au fost instruiți pentru a deveni veritabili consilieri de ocupare și a identifica tinerii care au nevoie de sprijin.
„Consilierul de ocupare îi face o evaluare inițială tânărului NEET, apoi împreună cu un consilier vocațional și cu psihologul din echipa noastră, adolescentului i se face o evaluare complexă. În baza evaluării complexe se întâlnește o echipă multidisciplinară formată din reprezentanți ai Direcției Asistență Socială, Direcției Educație și din cadrul Agenției de ocupare a forței de muncă. Aceștia decid dacă tânărul evaluat întrunește criteriile NEET și poate fi inclus în serviciul nostru”, precizează Carolina Butușneanu.
Tipurile de servicii oferite
În cadrul proiectului, beneficiarii au parte de consiliere și orientare în carieră/vocațională care se desfășoară atât în mod individual, cât și în grup. Fiecărui beneficiar i se face un plan individualizat de intervenție în funcție de care se stabilește la ce cursuri și la ce stagii de practică va participa.
Totodată, tinerii au parte de consiliere psihologică și ședințe de dezvoltare personală. Acestea urmăresc să le dezvolte nivelul de autocunoaștere, creșterea stimei de sine, îmbunătățirea abilităților de relaționare și comunicare, antrenarea empatiei, conștientizarea și reducerea comportamentelor problematice, dezvoltarea resurselor creative pentru rezolvarea problemelor, descoperirea punctelor forte și a vulnerabilităților personale, gestionarea corespunzătoare a emoțiilor și impulsurilor.
Potrivit specialiștilor implicați în desfășurarea proiectului, tinerii din categoria NEET acceptă mai greu experiența prezentată de părinți sau profesori. Existând o legătură afectivă și un istoric de frustrări și neînțelegeri cu aceștia de mult timp, tânărul dezvoltă mai degrabă o rezistență și refuză colaborarea.
Însă atunci când stau de vorbă cu o persoană neutră, dispusă să îi asculte fără să îi judece, dar în același timp, au parte de o pregătire profesională, adolescenții sunt mult mai deschiși. Este important ca tinerii să ia în considerare ceea ce specialiștii le recomandă în materie de consiliere psihologică, dezvoltare personală sau orientare vocațională. Astfel, ședințele de dezvoltare personală se desfășoară prin tehnici adaptate vârstei participanților și includ activități plăcute, antrenante, relaxante care să-i ajute pe adolescenți să se exprime fără rușine, să dea frâu liber imaginației, să caute soluții la problemele pe care le întâmpină în viață.
Tehnicile de lucru constau în discuții libere pe diverse teme, jocuri de rol, povești și metafore terapeutice, utilizarea desenului pentru exteriorizarea conflictelor interioare, exerciții de imaginație dirijată, dezbateri, exprimarea părerilor proprii și altele.
Regula principală a activităților de dezvoltare personală este confidențialitatea. Participanții au siguranța că experiențele și trăirile pe care le vor destăinui în cadrul consilierii individuale sau de grup vor rămâne secrete. Acest lucru le dă încredere beneficiarilor și îi face mai deschiși. Ei au certitudinea că se află în siguranță și că specialiștii cu care interacționează sunt oameni de încredere.
Încrederea în sine – factorul deschizător de drumuri
În ziua în care am vizitat sediul AO „Făclia”, acolo unde se desfășoară o mare parte din activitățile din cadrul proiectului, tinerii tocmai despre încredere vorbeau.
„Astăzi vorbim despre importanța încrederii în sine și a laudei de sine sănătoase! Este important să ne apreciem, să ne cunoaștem punctele forte, să fim toleranți cu noi înșine”, le spune Carolina Butușneanu celor peste 20 de adolescenți care participă la această sesiune de dezvoltare personală. Tinerii parcurg mai multe exerciții și discută despre ce le știrbește încrederea în sine, dar și ce îi înaripează. Unii mărturisesc că stau foarte bine la capitolul încredere în sine, în timp ce alții spun că mai au de lucru la acest aspect.
Din prima categorie face parte Cristina. Ea spune că își cunoaște abilitățile și crede că poate fi o lideră iscusită în comunitatea sa și nu numai. „Îmi place să comunic cu oamenii”, afirmă tânăra. Spune că în cadrul cursurilor de dezvoltare personală din cadrul proiectului „Integrare socio-profesională pentru tinerii NEET” învață tehnici de comunicare importante care o ajută să-și expună părerea în mod eficient și argumentat. „Aceste abilități de exprimare și comunicare sunt foarte importante, mai ales la interviurile de angajare. Eu aici simt că mă dezvolt, că aflu lucruri noi care mă vor ajuta în căutarea unui loc de muncă”, adăuga Cristina.
„În primul rând, nu trebuie să mințim în CV”
La fel crede și Pavel, un alt beneficiar al cursurilor de dezvoltare personală desfășurate în cadrul proiectului. Pavel afirmă că nu prea are încredere în sine și este conștient de faptul că trebuie să se dezvolte și să se pregătească foarte bine pentru interviurile de angajare la care urmează să meargă în viitor. „În primul rând, nu trebuie să mințim în CV”, menționează cu seriozitate tânărul.
„În al doilea rând, trebuie să-i demonstrezi angajatorului că ești deschis spre a învăța, că ești descurcăreț și bine informat. Trebuie să fim siguri pe noi”, continuă el.
Cursuri de orientare profesională
În cadrul proiectului sunt organizate și cursuri de pregătire profesională. „La începutul anului s-au desfășurat cursuri de scurtă durată, de bucătar/cofetar și frizer. Au durat trei luni și s-au încheiat înainte de începerea stării de urgență. Partea teoretică s-a desfășurat la sediul Asociației Obștești „Făclia”, iar practica generală – în cantina unui liceu. Apoi fiecare beneficiar a fost repartizat unui agent economic unde a putut să lucreze într-o bucătărie adevărată. Mulți au și rămas în acele localuri și s-au angajat”, povestește coordonatoarea serviciului.
După ce absolvesc aceste cursuri, tinerii beneficiază de alte câteva servicii importante. „Este vorba despre competențe-cheie pentru piața muncii. La această etapă, noi îi ajutăm pe tineri în procesul de căutare și obținere a unui loc de muncă. Punem accent pe tranziția beneficiarului nostru de la etapa formării profesionale la cea a angajării. Adolescenții învață cum să-și creeze un CV și cum să se pregătească de interviurile de angajare. De altfel, ultima etapă din serviciul nostru este medierea muncii. Acest moment se desfășoară individual, noi suntem alături de fiecare beneficiar în parte. Împreună găsim platformele unde sunt publicate anunțuri de angajare, îi sfătuim cum să obțină locul de muncă pe care și-l doresc, cum să comunice eficient cu angajatorul. Chiar și după ce instruirea lor în cadrul serviciului nostru se încheie, noi oricum ținem legătura. Beneficiarii ne sună, ne cer sfaturi, ne țin la curent cu situația lor”, menționează Carolina Butușneanu.
„Sunt angajat oficial, se plătește bine”
Așa s-a întâmplat în cazul lui Vasile, tânărul de 18 ani care lucrează într-un local de tip fast-food din Ungheni. După ce a terminat clasa a 9-a, băiatul nu și-a continuat studiile la liceu și nu s-a înscris nici la colegiu. Reprezentanții AO „Făclia” susțin că aproximativ 30% din adolescenți nu-și continuă studiile după gimnaziu și le este dificil să-și găsească un loc de muncă.
Vasile locuia în satul lui de baștină alături de familia sa. Nu știa exact ce i-ar plăcea să facă în viitor și care este calea corectă pentru el. Datorită campaniei de informare desfășurată de AO „Făclia”, la urechile tânărului a ajuns informația despre cursurile profesionale organizate de asociația obștească. Vasile a fost atras de această oportunitate și s-a implicat în toate etapele din cadrul proiectului.
A participat la cursurile de formare profesională pentru bucătari, fiind pasionat de acest domeniu de când era mic. Astfel, a simțit că și-a găsit vocația. „În familie am învățat să gătesc de toate, dar la cursuri am învățat cum să fac lucrurile în mod profesionist, după anumite reguli. A fost foarte interesant, pentru că am avut o profesoară extrem de bună care ne-a explicat totul amănunțit. Prima lună am făcut teorie, iar celelalte două luni am făcut multă practică. La examen am tras la sorți și mi-a picat coacerea unui tort. Mă pricep și la dulciuri”, spune zâmbind Vasile.
Tânărul este mulțumit de actualul loc de muncă pe care l-a obținut fiind sprijinit de specialiștii din cadrul proiectului implementat de AO „Făclia”. „Sunt angajat oficial, se plătește bine. Mă înțeleg bine cu șeful meu și m-am obișnuit deja cu programul”, povestește adolescentul. O dată ce a început să câștige niște bani, tânărul s-a mutat în orașul Ungheni și spune că se simte mult mai motivat să muncească cinstit pentru a-și construi un viitor frumos.
Carolina Butușneanu spune că beneficiarii nu trebuie să parcurgă toate etapele din cadrul serviciilor oferit de AO „Făclia”. „De exemplu, unii adolescenți cunosc foarte bine ce oportunități au și cum să elaboreze un CV impecabil, dar nu au suficientă încredere în sine, se confruntă cu stări depresive, au probleme acasă și atunci ei au nevoie doar de serviciul nostru de consiliere psihologică, nu și de orientare profesională. Fiecărui beneficiar i se oferă ajutor în aspectele în care el întâmpină dificultăți”, afirmă aceasta.
Provocările tinerilor într-o lume a schimbărilor
Viziunea Asociației Obștești „Făclia” este o lume în care tinerii își pot atinge întregul potențial, iar organizațiile neguvernamentale îi încurajează și îi ghidează în acest sens. Tinerii NEET sunt expuși unui risc mai mare de excluziune socială, deoarece nici nu-și dezvoltă competențele prin studii și nici nu acumulează experiență prin angajarea în câmpul muncii.
Angela Ciocîrlan, președinta AO „Făclia” și directoarea proiectului „Integrare socio-profesională pentru tinerii NEET”, vorbește despre cât de important este ca adolescenții să fie informați cu privire la evoluția pieței muncii și mai ales, să-și aleagă corect o profesie. „Trăind într-o lume a schimbărilor și văzând că ceea ce era foarte apreciat pe piața muncii cu doi ani în urmă astăzi este mai puțin cerut, am pornit de la ideea că este nevoie de o metodologie de conexiune a câtorva servicii, care, într-un final, ar duce către o angajare de succes”, explică Angela Ciocîrlan.
Colaborarea dintre societatea civilă și autorități
Implementarea proiectului „Integrare socio-profesională pentru tinerii NEET” de către AO „Făclia”, a fost posibilă datorită unui grant în valoare de 41 800 EURO, oferit de Fundația Soros Moldova din resursele Uniunii Europene. „Ne-am gândit că noi, societatea civilă, putem colabora mai mult cu autoritățile, că ne putem așeza la aceeași masă pentru a crea un consiliu de coordonare a nevoilor tinerilor. Ne-am propus să vedem unde ne putem completa și cum ne putem cunoaște mai bine pentru a munci în comun. Astfel, am dezvoltat parteneriate locale cu Direcția de ocupare a forței de muncă din Călărași, Ungheni și Nisporeni, cu Direcția de asistență socială și alte structuri ce țin de domeniile educaționale”, adaugă directoarea proiectului.
Astăzi, tinerii sunt afectați de multe fenomene care lasă urme adânci în dezvoltarea lor. Adolescenții se confruntă cu fobii, complexe, frustrări și o motivație scăzută. „Am tinde să credem că această categorie aparține adolescenților care provin din familii social vulnerabile, dar de multe ori, tinerii cu care noi lucrăm sunt nemulțumiți. Ei nu reușesc să se angajeze într-un loc unde să fie apreciați, plătiți pe măsura capacităților lor. Din păcate, angajatorii nu reușesc mereu să-și stimuleze angajații și să le ofere oportunități de creștere”, accentuează Angela Ciocîrlan.
Acest articol este publicat în cadrul proiectului „Servicii sociale mai bune printr-un parteneriat durabil dintre societatea civilă și guvern”. Proiectul este finanțat de Uniunea Europeană, co-finanțat și implementat de Fundația Soros Moldova în parteneriat cu Asociația Keystone Moldova, Alianța ONG-urilor active în domeniul Protecției Sociale a Copilului și Familiei și Alianța Organizațiilor pentru Persoane cu Dizabilități din Republica Moldova.
We are testing out some UI adjustments to Shoutbox on our internal Open Atrium to see how well they work. The Shoutbox is now implemented as a popup palette, with a count indicator in its menu item (see counter here www.flickr.com/photos/developmentseed/4340974694/). If this goes well, we might roll the changes into core.

The implementation of Peace Agreement is undoubtedly compromised and partially derailed says Festus G Mogae Chairperson of Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Commission during the plenary meeting on October 19, 2016. Despite the challenges he remains hopeful that conditions will improve and the full capacity for implementation will be restored once again.
âThe fighting has disintegrated all the Transitional Security Arrangement Mechanisms, the little that had been accomplished has been lost,â he laments.
Pointing out that the threat of any further violence on such a fragile nation is a failure of leadership and a betrayal of people who deserve better.
Reflecting back to July, he said they have witnessed escalating hostility that has led to near daily violations of the ceasefire and a developing conflict between SPLA-IG and SPLA-IO. âUnfortunate sequence of events has unfolded and a fragile peace has deteriorated into open hostilities.â

Mekelle– Ethiopia, 24th January 2016: Members of African Union (AU) Executive Council converged in the Tigray region of Mekelle, on 24 January 2016, within the framework of their third Ministerial Retreat, holding under the theme: “Implementation of Agenda 2063”. The Ministerial Retreat was chaired by Hon. Simbarashe S. Mumbengegwi, Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Zimbabwe and Chairperson of the Executive Council, in the presence of H.E. Dr Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma, Chairperson of the African Union Commissioners, H.E Mr. Erastus Mwencha, Deputy Chairperson of the AUC. Hon. Dr Tedros Adhenon Ghebreyesus, Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, H.E Abay Weldu, President of the Regional Authority of Tigray, representatives from AU Organs, the UNECA, NEPAD, RECs AfDB, AU Commissioners , the AUC Secretary General, and the Legal Counsel of the AUC, and invited guests.
President Weldu welcomed the participants in the city of Mekelle and presented the historical background of the region which he qualified as courageous and privileged population who inherited the most archeological objects and sites of humanity. He said the agenda of this retreat has a significant meaning to the Tigray tribe/people of Ethiopia. He appreciated the vision of the Union aimed at creatiing an integrated, prosperous and peaceful Africa”.
In her opening remarks, Dr. Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma, AUC Chairperson, recalled the first retreat in the city of Ethiopia Bahir Dar in 2014, where she introduced the Dream of the African People in “the e-mail from the future”, among others. “Two years ago, as we concluded the 50th anniversary of the OAU/AU, we met as in retreat in the city of Bahir Dar, to discuss the core responsibilities of this important organ, the Executive Council. It was then when I spoke about our dream of the Africa we want, in the e-mail from the future.
Two years later, as we gather here in Mekelle, Tigray region we can report that we have made some headway. As discussed at this retreat, we now have Agenda 2063 as our clarion call for action, supported by all sections of the African society”, stated the AUC Chairperson. She explained that, “we are now clear on the priorities of Agenda 2063, investing in our people, especially youth and women; in agricultural modernization and agro-businesses; in manufacturing and industrialization; the development of our infrastructure; democracy and developmental governance, as well as the need of silencing the guns by 2020.”
“Our Agenda 2063 flagship projects - such as the free movement of people, the Commodities strategy, the Pan African Integrated High speed Rail network - is taking off, and should help towards our vision of an integrated, peaceful and prosperous Africa, driven by its own people and taking its rightful place in the world”, underscored Dr. Dlamini Zuma.
Referring to the song on Agenda 2063 composed by a group of artists from Zimbabwe, played during the opening ceremony of the retreat, the AUC Chairperson called on other artists within the continent to emulate the good example. “ I would like to thank the Zimbabwean artists who came up with that song on Agenda 2063, and I challenge all of us to encourage our artists to compose as many songs as possible. Of course as the Chair of the Union, Zimbabwe led from the front”. She thanks the Mekelle authorities for hosting the AU Ministerial retreat and wished the Ministers fruitful deliberation. (See complete speech of the AUC Chairperson on the website: www.au.int ).
The Chairperson of the Executive Council on his part, recalled the high moments and priorities on Agenda 2063 saying “our Agenda is centred in the review of implementation of decisions taken during the 2nd Ministerial retreat and update on the implementation of the 1st ten year plan of Agenda 2063, the free movement of goods and persons, the issue of Immigration and tourism and wild life preservation”. Minister Mumbengegwi stressed that “as we continue streamlining and improving the working methods of our Union, we also need to consider how best we can align our bi-annual Summits in order to improve the effectiveness of our organisation and to give ourselves ample time to implement our decisions”. He expressed satisfaction to the fact that notable success has already been achieved in this vein, hence the need to proffering new and innovative ideas that will take the organisation to greater heights. (See complete speech of the Executive Chairperson on the AU Website: www.au.int) .
Speaking earlier, Hon. Dr. Tedros Ghebreyesus, stressed on the importance of holding the ministerial retreat which he said will enhance friendly and convivial relationship between the ministers. The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia said such gathering will enable the participants to express themselves freely while socialising with one another. He called on his pars saying, “We have a number of important issues to deliver including exchanging views and best practices on how to domesticate and enhance the implementation of agenda 2063 and its flagship projects.

The concept of Universal Access of the ICT sector was established by the policy arising from the Global Vision 2020, launched in 2000. This concept is materialized by the Telecoms Law, the Law establishing the independent ICT regulatory body and the enforcement instrument regarding functioning of the Universal Access Fund (UAF) and its sources of funding.
The key objective of the UAF is to allow the general public, in all parts of the country, to the widest possible access, at affordable terms, to a reliable network, to telecommunication and ICT services.

21 September 2017 - UNGA - Implementation of SDGs should be country-led and country-owned.
This high level side event organized at the helm of the 72nd Session of the UN General Assembly continues to advocate the nature of the 2030 Agenda—‘country-led and country-owned,’ as reflected during the UNDG high level event during the HLPF 2017 earlier this year.
UN Deputy Secretary-General, Ms. Amina J. Mohammed in her key note remarks stated, “We have hit the SDGs walking – not yet running – and we need to pick up the pace. Progress will only be achieved through genuine and meaningful partnerships.”
Host of the event, Mr. Achim Steiner, the UNDG Chair and the Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) said, "In the SDGs we have found a common language in identifying the challenges and opportunities in development. We need new partnerships- we need investment bankers to work with rural farmers, policy makers with activists."
The side event also marked the launch of the 2016 UNDG results report: Lift Off: Agenda 2030—Shared Results of the UNDG in 2016. The new report captures the collective results and impact achieved by the UN Development System through 131 UN Country Teams supporting 165 countries and territories, as well as by the UNDG at the regional and global levels. The report is now available at undg.org

•Desde que se implementó este espacio creado por la Autoridad Portuaria Nacional, los casos delincuenciales han disminuido en un 20% en la zona.
¿Sabías que el Centro de Control, Comunicaciones y Respuesta a Emergencias de la Autoridad Portuaria Nacional, entidad adscrita al Ministerio de Transportes y Comunicaciones (MTC), brinda apoyo a las embarcaciones, a los camiones que ingresan y salen del puerto y a las instalaciones portuarias del Callao? Efectivamente, cumple esa función con el fin de que la cadena logística sea más rápida y segura.
El citado centro de control, con ayuda de un sistema de cámaras de videovigilancia, ubicadas en las vías de acceso terrestre al puerto del Callao, efectúa un monitoreo diario del flujo de vehículos que se dirigen a las instalaciones portuarias de APM Terminals y DP World para dejar o retirar carga.
Julio Cruz, encargado del citado centro de control, explicó que, gracias al trabajo que realizan, la delincuencia ha disminuido en un 20% en la zona.
“Teniendo en cuenta que a diario ingresan como mínimo tres mil camiones al puerto del Callao, se requería con carácter de urgencia que exista un control y monitoreo de la zona en las vías y en el mar. Antes, era un caos, había mucho desorden vehicular, robos y extorsiones a los camineros. Hoy, el panorama es diferente y ello ayuda a dinamizar la economía”, sostuvo.
Se monitorea la prestación de los servicios portuarios a nivel terrestre y marítimo, centralizando, procesando y analizando cualquier información que pueda afectar al Sistema Portuario Nacional en el marco del Código Internacional para la Protección de los Buques y de Instalaciones Portuarias.
Para realizar un trabajo articulado, este centro se encuentra instalado en el Comité de Inteligencia Portuaria, conformado por la Dirección Nacional Antidrogas (Dirandro), la Dirección de Investigación Criminal (Dirincri), la Dirección Contra el Terrorismo (Dircote) y la Dirección de Policía Fiscal (Dirpolfis), así como el Programa Global de Control de Contenedores, quienes se encargan del perfilamiento de contenedores de exportación para identificar casos de narcotráfico y contrabando.
Trabajo articulado
Cabe anotar que, en junio pasado, con el fin de brindar seguridad a las instalaciones portuarias, a las vías y a las unidades de transporte de carga, el MTC y la Policía Nacional del Perú (PNP) firmaron un convenio para la prestación del servicio policial en los alrededores de los terminales chalacos.
Los transportistas de carga que acceden al puerto del Callao requerían contar con una mayor protección policial para reducir los actos delictivos en la zona y mantener la fluidez del ingreso y salida en el puerto a fin de entregar sus cargas a tiempo. Para ellos se dispuso el resguardo de 42 efectivos policiales, quienes se distribuyen en tres turnos las 24 horas del día y se ubican en puntos estratégicos.
