Veel te vroeg moeten wij deze bevlogen lobbyiste v\u00f3\u00f3r de rechten van vrouwen en kinderen, v\u00f3\u00f3r gendergelijkheid, v\u00f3\u00f3r duurzame ontwikkeling, v\u00f3\u00f3r empowerment en economische zelfstandigheid van vrouwen en t\u00e9gen geweld, missen<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Vanuit de Stichting African Sky en als lid van het algemeen bestuur van Tiye International leverde zij op verschillende manieren hieraan een bijdrage. In Nederland onder andere door diasporavrouwen te organiseren, te informeren en te trainen in empowerment en leiderschap. Daarnaast door conferenties te organiseren om de achterban van de diasporaorganisaties, beleidsmakers en Afrikaanse en Nederlandse professionals te informeren over de strategie\u00ebn van vrouwen om geweld binnen families, clans en communities tegen te gaan en invloed uit te oefenen op het proces om vrede en veiligheid te realiseren. Stella hanteerde een brede definitie van eergerelateerd geweld waaronder ook huiselijk geweld, uithuwelijking, kindermishandeling of meisjesbesnijdenis vallen. Al dit geweld vormt een schending van de mensenrechten en wordt veroorzaakt door genderongelijkheid. Al dit geweld wordt vaak ook gepleegd vanuit een eermotief. Zich achter <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">tradities en cultuur verschuilen om geweld te plegen vond Stella onacceptabel. Geweld tegen vrouwen en meisjes is altijd onrechtvaardig en nooit eer gerelateerd. Belangrijk is dat dit wordt erkend en herkend en dat mensen elkaar motiveren om daar zelf iets aan te gaan doen. Daar streed Stella voor vanuit haar Stichting African Sky.\u00a0\u00a0 <span style=\"background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">Niet alleen op nationaal niveau, ook internationaal was Stella Ismail actief bezig om de stem van vrouwen te laten klinken, bijvoorbeeld tijdens Europese en internationale VN conferenties. Zij zette zich in om diasporaorganisaties hier en vrouwenorganisaties in de herkomstlanden elkaar te laten ondersteunen en versterken. Vanuit deze activiteiten was zij ook nauw betrokken bij de ontwikkeling en verspreiding van het Nationaal Actieplan voor uitvoering van de VN resolutie 1325 en het Wo=Men Dutch Gender Platform. Stella was een van de initiatiefneemsters van de Women\u2019s March op zaterdag 21 januari 2017 in Den Haag die Fem4All organiseerde als onderdeel van het wereldwijde protest tegen Trump\u2019s denigrerende opmerkingen over vrouwen, tegen discriminatie, racisme, uitsluiting en juist voor gelijkheid en voor inclusieve vrouwenrechten.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\"> <\/span><strong><em><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\" lang=\"EN-US\">\u201cWithout women\u2018s participation Somalia\u2019s quest for Peace, Reconstruction and Stabilization remains limited.\u201c<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">Een van Stella\u2019s prioriteiten was verbetering van de positie van vrouwen in het land waar zij was geboren en opgegroeid. Via projecten, trainingen en deelname aan conferenties leverde zij daar een bijdrage aan. Stella nam bijvoorbeeld deel aan de gender audit van het ontwerp van de Somalische grondwet in de UN Headquarters in Nairobi met vrouwen uit Zuid\/Centraal Somali\u00eb, Puntland en Somaliland, vertegenwoordigsters van Independent Federal Constitution Commission (IFCC), parlementsleden, UNPOs, UNDP en vertegenwoordigsters van de civil society en diaspora organisaties. Aan het eind van de conferentie werd een Communiqu\u00e9 uitgegeven met aanbevelingen vanuit een genderperspectief voor de nieuwe Somalische grondwet. Zij was een van de oprichters van de Somali Women Agenda, een uniek netwerk van vrouwen uit verschillende regio\u2019s (en clans) in Somali\u00eb en de diaspora.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\">Uit al haar activiteiten komt de bewonderenswaardige wijze naar voren waarop Stella haar lokale, nationale en internationale netwerk steeds verder uitbreidde en dat vervolgens heel effectief wist te benutten. Bovendien was zij in staat om de verbinding tot stand te brengen tussen verschillende onderdelen van dat netwerk: wat dat betreft was Stella echt een bruggenbouwer tussen organisaties van vrouwen met diverse achtergrond onderling en met instanties, instellingen en beleidsmakers. Tijdens conferenties, publieksbijeenkomsten en in de media wist zij op inspirerende, enthousiasmerende en overtuigende wijze de belangen en rechten van vrouwen in Nederland en wereldwijd te verdedigen. In combinatie met haar doorzettingsvermogen en creativiteit vormde dat de basis voor een geweldig rolmodel als \u2018Changemaker\u2019 voor andere (migranten en vluchtelingen) vrouwen en meisjes. Heel terecht werd zij hiervoor in 2012 onderscheiden als Ambassador for Peace door de Women\u2019s Federation for World Peace Europe en in 2013 als Ridder in de Orde van Oranje-Nassau door de burgemeester van Utrecht.<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"CVNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Het bestuur van Tiye International wenst familie en vrienden van Stella alle sterkte om dit verlies te dragen.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\">Download:\u00a0<a rel=\"attachment wp-att-2588\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=2588\">Herdenkingsbijeenkomst Stella Ismail verslag 7 maart 2018 <\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-2595\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/?attachment_id=2595\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2595\" title=\"unnamed Stella\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/unnamed-Stella2-296x300.jpg\" alt=\"unnamed Stella\" width=\"296\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tiye-international.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/unnamed-Stella2-296x300.jpg 296w, https:\/\/tiye-international.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/unnamed-Stella2-1013x1024.jpg 1013w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 296px) 100vw, 296px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"CVNormal\" style=\"margin-left: 0cm;\"><span style=\"font-size: 1.5em;\"><strong>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h1 style=\"margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0cm; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 19.5pt; color: #ed028c;\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\">After 20 years, WPP closes its doors<\/span><span style=\"font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/h1>\n<p style=\"margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 7.5pt; margin-left: 0cm; text-align: justify;\"><strong><em><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #606060; font-weight: normal;\">A Letter from the WPP Team<\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 19.5pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ed028c;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\">As WPP,<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; font-weight: 400;\" type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"color: #505050; text-align: justify; line-height: 20px;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 21px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>We do not feel comfortable to continue our work by squeezing ourselves into an ever-narrowing funding framework, which forces our global transformative activism into top-down project approaches.<\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; font-weight: 400;\" type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"color: #505050; text-align: justify; line-height: 20px;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 21px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>We do not believe in fitting ourselves into narrow security paradigms that frame conflict and war as something that needs fixing elsewhere, leaving hardly any room to addressing its drivers and root causes, including those in our own backyard.<\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; font-weight: 400;\" type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"color: #505050; text-align: justify; line-height: 20px;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 21px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>We do not believe in taking on a Northern civil society role framed merely around telling civil society elsewhere how to do things better, while the whole system needs fixing.<\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; font-weight: 400;\" type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"color: #505050; text-align: justify; line-height: 20px;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 21px; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><strong>We do not believe in perpetuating an accountability idea that draws on a rigid and linear outlook on social change, and which too often ends up transforming activism into a paper tiger.

One of these concerns access to financing, which is playing a role in shrinking women\u2019s civil society space, everywhere<\/strong>. This phenomenon is global, and comes from different angles: donors\u2019 grantmaking policies that do not meet the organizational reality of most women\u2019s groups; fierce civil society competition; banks\u2019 de-risking behavior; and a general difficult climate for those doing controversial, critical, political, and rights-based work.<\/p>\n<p>We increasingly find ourselves in a\u00a0<strong>schizophrenic reality<\/strong>, where on the one hand women\u2019s rights and gender equality activists around the world are facing\u00a0<strong>strong opposition\u00a0from different sides<\/strong> while on the other hand\u00a0many in government and donor positions\u00a0<strong>loudly commit to supporting women\u2019s rights and gender equality<\/strong>. Yet\u00a0<strong>their grantmaking increasingly fails to provide an effective<\/strong> <strong>financial infrastructure catering directly and sustainably for the women frontliners and feminist pioneers in global South, North, East and West<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Which is ironic, considering it is the women\u2019s movement, which put these issues on the global policy map and funding agenda in the first place.\u00a0<strong>It would only make sense if those who have been sowing the seeds can also be amongst the ones that are able to reap the fruits.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At WPP, based in Europe, we also have experienced this changing reality first hand. Tender procedures, which we used to be able to access directly,\u00a0<strong>are no longer accessible, despite the fact that we have a successful track record for 20 years<\/strong>. Application criteria have become too demanding, such as requiring minimum annual budgets that are unrealistic and unreachable for a middle-sized organization. We are not alone in this, as the vast majority of most women\u2019s organizations around the globe fit in the categories \u201csmall\u201d or \u201cmiddle sized\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Increasingly, the only option left for us to access funding was to try and find a large organization willing and able to take us along, which increasingly put us in a dependency position, clashing with the core feminist empowerment principle of \u201cfinancial access and control\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Increasingly, we\u00a0<strong>have also found ourselves in a constant rat race of measuring and (over)reporting, tying us to our desks<\/strong>. Like so many in civil society, we too often find ourselves caught up in a paralyzing bureaucratic reality, generated by a donor reality that locates accountability in paper. This is going at the expense of the real work we as activists set ourselves out to, which is about changing women\u2019s lives, and by women\u2019s lives, everyone\u2019s lives on this shared planet.<\/p>\n<p>Let there be no doubt that, as an activist organization, we wholeheartedly support civil society partnerships for social transformation and solidarity. As nonviolence teaches us,\u00a0<strong>large-scale economic, political and social transformation always depend on the ability to create \u201cmass\u201d amongst a wide diversity of constituencies. A diverse civil society \u2013 one in which unregistered groups, movements, small activist organizations, large international actors, and individual activists can work together on an equal footing \u2013 is a key component of this.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Any effective partnership should therefore be shaped by different changemakers coming together on an equal basis to develop bottom-up strategies based on shared values, drive, trust, and transformation agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Partnership should always be a matter of\u00a0<strong>free choice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Yet nowadays,\u00a0<strong>too many partnerships end up being pushed by top-down donor incentives<\/strong> (driven by donors\u2019 manageability needs), combined with\u00a0<strong>civil society\u2019s financial survival needs<\/strong>, with the smaller actors often ending up as the subcontracted implementors of an externally set up agenda, dangling at the end.<\/p>\n<p>The current competition-fuelling grant industry is increasingly\u00a0<strong>pitting civil society against each other, and too often merely caters for a narrow segment of civil society<\/strong>, the one that can swallow large budgets, immense amounts of bureaucracy and which can produce enormous paper trails, all under the name of \u201caccountability\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This\u00a0<strong>increasingly cuts off direct support to those who do crucial work on the ground across the globe <\/strong>\u2013 the people movements, the brave young activists organizing themselves in the face of war, the women human right defenders risking their lives on a daily basis, the activist groups that keep a critical eye on those in power. It is the very people that cannot tick the many donor boxes, are not able to swallow huge amounts of funding at once, nor have the time and resources to produce endless piles of paper. But let there be no doubt that they are accountable \u2013 they make up the immune system active in any corner of our global world, always on the look out, to protect the\u00a0<strong>lives of the people they serve, often at their own expense<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>With deep concern we see that the above is fueling a reality where women\u2019s organizations increasingly lose access to direct financial support, and have\u00a0<strong>come to depend on large organizations (often based in the global North), willing to subcontract them in their tender procedures<\/strong>, so they can get at least some scraps of financial support.<\/p>\n<p>When women\u2019s\u00a0<strong>flexible, bottom-up driven, long-term, activist and globally connected movement agenda<\/strong> for social, economic, political and environmental transformation becomes subcontracted into short-term, top-down oriented, isolated project agreements, we should start asking ourselves\u00a0<strong>what kind of accountability we are talking about in these times of global turmoil<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>In the past years, we have felt how this\u00a0<strong>changed financial infrastructure\u00a0started interfering with WPP\u2019s mandate and ways of working<\/strong>. Since 1997, we have existed as an activist actor, as part of a\u00a0<strong>global community of fellow activists<\/strong>, who work together for peace and gender justice from a holistic perspective. We have always shaped our work around priorities defined by our activist partners. It has been exactly this feature that has made WPP\u2019s work\u00a0<strong>cutting edge, daring and pioneering<\/strong>. These are not our own words, but is how our work has been consistently described by many others over the years.<\/p>\n<p>This also meant that our activism around the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda has always been in line with its \u201ccivil society birth mother\u201d \u2013 the Beijing Platform for Action (1995).\u00a0<strong>This was a political and transformative peace and security\u00a0agenda from the onset<\/strong>, formulated by women activists pushing for investments in women\u2019s leadership for peace, conflict prevention and nonviolence (\u201cpeople power\u201d), human security, disarmament and addressing global militarism. As years have progressed, we have seen the WPS agenda under pressure,\u00a0<strong>increasingly moving away from its civil society origins.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We have seen it turn into one which hardly\u00a0<strong>reflects the global economy of war and militarism. <\/strong>One\u00a0in which civil society\u2019s role is increasingly relegated to being\u00a0<strong>an implementer of state-defined security priorities<\/strong> instead of\u00a0<strong>driving force of human security for all people. <\/strong>One in which civil society\u2019s mandate in \u201cthe North\u201d is too often framed around helping to build \u201cthe capacity of the women in the South\u201d<strong>, instead of women activists in the North having the space to critically reflect and address the many issues in their own backyard and the spill-over effects on the rest of the world<\/strong>, so that\u00a0<strong>women activists everywhere can unite and play their role in healing a global war system that needs fixing<\/strong>. One, in which we\u00a0<strong>struggled to find the financial support we need to play our part in global transformative activism for peace and gender justice<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Thirty years later, we should not be sounding alarm bells about women activists being left on the side. We should not be hearing about women\u2019s groups that can no longer make ends meet while policy screams \u201cgender matters!\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are indeed some things we cannot control easily in an ever-changing world. And there are some things we can. Making sure we stand firmly behind the myriad of committed women\u2019s rights groups and feminist activists that operate globally, so they can continue doing the long-term activism that is needed to heal a world in need, is one in the category of a loud \u201c<strong>Absolutely, we can!<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>We want to thank everyone who has been part of our twenty-year journey. You have blessed us with your knowledge, energized us with your laughter, inspired us with your activism, baffled us with the changes you have created, gave us hope with your courage, warmed us with your care, stood with us when times got tough.

Na een beschrijving van het emancipatiebeleid op hoofdlijnen volgt in de hoofdstukken een specificatie daarvan, plus de ingezette maatregelen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.scp.nl\/dsresource?objectid=751e3c62-877b-4231-9ff0-54d34a9dfbb2&#038;type=PDF<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000; font-size: 15.21px; font-weight: normal;\">&#8211;<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #800000; font-size: 15.21px; font-weight: normal;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000; font-size: 15.21px; font-weight: normal;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p>12 december 2016<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong>EXCLUSIVE &#8211; PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA INTERVIEW IN THE DAILY SHOW<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color: #993300;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/obama1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2400\" title=\"obama\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/obama1.jpg\" alt=\"obama\" width=\"630\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tiye-international.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/obama1.jpg 630w, https:\/\/tiye-international.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/obama1-300x140.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong>T<\/strong>revor Noah visits President Obama at the White House to discuss Russia&#8217;s impact on the 2016 election, the incoming Trump administration, the future of Obamacare and modern racism.

It refers to the use by the police, security, immigration or customs officials of generalisations based on race, ethnicity, religion or national origin &#8211; rather than individual behaviour or objective evidence &#8211; as the basis for suspicion in directing discretionary law enforcement actions.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of this round table, co-organised by ENAR, the Open Society Foundations and the European Parliament\u2019s Anti-Racism and Diversity Intergroup, is to have a multi-stakeholder discussion on the problems and experience of ethnic profiling and exchange on good practices towards EU guidelines for fair and efficient policing.<\/p>\n<p>The context has changed dramatically in the last few years, highlighting the need to better protect minority communities in Europe and improve policing. A number of recent developments would support the need for a renewed discussion at EU level:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Terrorist attacks in Brussels, Paris and elsewhere, and the assertions about an elevated terrorism threat have led to the development of counter-terrorism and counter-radicalisation policies which have increased ethnic profiling.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Responses to increase in migrants and asylum seekers flux have led to enhanced border controls and stricter return policies towards undocumented.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Communities-police relations seem to deteriorate in a context of social protest, counter-terrorism and stricter migration policies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Renewed debates at national level on stop and search practices and solutions, including in France and the Netherlands<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The Dutch Presidency made inroads on addressing police discriminatory practices by the mention of ethnic profiling in Council Conclusions on the application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights and by proposing that the newly created High level Working Group on racism, Xenophobia and other forms of Intolerance would tackle these practices.<\/p>\n<h5>To register:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1Esp1hDKc1VSJVhWUYovovFl4e-02n5u_sn7CvXmcHes\/viewform?edit_requested=true\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1Esp1hDKc1VSJVhWUYovovFl4e-02n5u_sn7CvXmcHes\/viewform?edit_requested=true<\/a><\/h5>\n<h3>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/h3>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Geneva-logo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2317\" title=\"7 to 11 November 2016\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tiye-international.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Geneva-logo.png\" alt=\"7 to 11 November 2016\" width=\"224\" height=\"224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tiye-international.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Geneva-logo.png 224w, https:\/\/tiye-international.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Geneva-logo-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\" lang=\"EN-US\">Dear NGO Colleagues,<\/span> <span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\" lang=\"EN-US\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">We are pleased to share the final programme of the third edition of <strong>Geneva Peace Week that will take place from 7 to 11 November 2016.<\/strong> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">A detailed programme is available at <\/span><a style=\"font-stretch: normal;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.genevapeaceweek.ch\/programme\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\" lang=\"EN-US\">http:\/\/www.genevapeaceweek.ch\/programme<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\" lang=\"EN-US\">. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\" lang=\"EN-US\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;\">Over five days, Geneva Peace Week will be the umbrella for 52 events with over 100 speakers organized by 55 institutions.

Eiseres, met vijf andere zelfstandig erkende vrouwen al meer dan tien jaar gesteund door VVR en Proefprocessenfonds Clara Wichmann procederend, heeft recht op geldelijke vergoeding van het UWV. Bij de aanvraag van de UWV-uitkering en in de fase van bezwaar en beroep is eiseres ondersteund door haar vakbond FNV Zelfstandigen.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;\">Tot 1 augustus 2004 bestond er een uitkering volgens de Wet Arbeid en Zorg (en de Wet Arbeidsongeschiktheiduitkering Zelfstandigen). De Wet Zwangerschapsuitkering Zelfstandigen (ZEZ) is van kracht sinds 4 juni 2008.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;\">De rechtbank volgt het \u201cgezaghebbende oordeel\u201d van \u201chet CEDAW als een internationaal comit\u00e9 op het gebied van vrouwenrechten\u201d, dat een oordeel gaf over \u201cde door eiseres zelf ingediende klacht over hetzelfde onderwerp\u201d. De rechtbank verwerp het verweer van het UWV (in navolging van minister Asscher) dat het betreffende artikel van het VN-Vrouwenverdrag (art. 11 lid 2 onder b) geen betrekking zou hebben op zelfstandig werkende vrouwen. Eerder in de uitspraak had de rechtbank al vastgesteld dat dit artikel van het VN-Vrouwenverdrag rechtstreekse werking toekomt. Eiseres moet een uitkering of een vervangende schadevergoeding krijgen. Rechtbank Midden-Nederland heeft het UWV opgedragen een nieuw besluit te nemen op het bezwaar van eiseres, met in achtneming van deze uitspraak.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;\">Rechtbank Amsterdam oordeelde in juli 2016 in het beroep van twee medeklaagsters dat er geen reden was om geldelijke vergoeding toe te kennen (uitspraak is niet gepubliceerd). Uiteindelijk zal de Centrale Raad van Beroep het laatste woord hebben: klaagsters gaan beroep in de laatst genoemde zaak en het UWV ongetwijfeld tegen de goed gemotiveerde uitspraak van Rechtbank Midden\u2013Nederland.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;\"><strong>Oproep zwangere zelfstandigen 2004 \u2013 2008<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;\">Wie in de bewuste periode zelfstandig werkte en zwanger is geweest doet er goed aan om een ZEZ-uitkering bij het UWV aan te vragen. Doel is het veilig stellen van uitkeringsrechten als ook de CRvB tot het oordeel komt dat klaagsters recht hebben op een uitkering dan wel schadevergoeding. Het is overigens goed denkbaar dat zo\u2019n eventuele positieve uitspraak van de CRvB in eerste instantie alleen direct betrekking heeft op de zes vrouwen die bij CEDAW met succes een klacht indienden. Met andere woorden: dat er voor de andere vrouwen die bij UWV een aanvraag indienen mogelijk opnieuw geprocedeerd zal moeten worden. Het is daarom zeker aan te bevelen om een beroep te doen op een eventuele rechtsbijstandsverzekering. Wie lid is van een vakbond of beroepsorganisatie kan waarschijnlijk langs die route juridisch ondersteuning krijgen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-weight: normal;\"><strong>Verslagen expertbijeenkomsten<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;\">Dat zoveel organisaties de schaduwrapportage VN-Vrouwenverdrag hebben ondertekend komt mede doordat het rapportageteam tal van op de diverse issues actieve NGO\u2019s en CSO\u2019s (Civil Society Organisations) en andere deskundigen heeft geraadpleegd, onder meer tijdens verschillende expertmeetings.

In our NAP1325 pilot project, Tiye International and DRCC foundation emphasize also social economic empowerment, expertise sharing, peace missions, diplomacy and lobbying. Women in rural areas in the DRC, South Kivu province will be trained how to use these international instruments.

Door een twintigtal auteurs wordt hierin aandacht besteed aan racisme, antisemitisme en islamfobie en de wijze waarop idee\u00ebn uit de tijd van slavernij, arbeidsmigratie en kolonialisme\u00a0 nu nog doorwerken (bijvoorbeeld in de discussie over Zwarte Piet).<\/p>\n<p>Voor TIYE International speelt Professor Dr. Philomena Essed als wetenschapper en medeactivist een buitengewoon belangrijke rol zoals bij het\u00a0 mede ontwikkelen van de <em>Strategie Sociale en Culturele Sensitiviteit<\/em> binnen het project <em>Towards a Workforce Without Discrimination<\/em> en als nationale en internationale expert op het gebied van Gender and Race.<\/p>\n<p>Sinds het begin van de 21e eeuw woont en werkt Philomena Essed afwisselend in de Verenigde Staten en Nederland, aanvankelijk aan de Universiteit van California en de Universiteit van Amsterdam.\u00a0 Sinds 2005 is ze hoogleraar Critical Race, Gender and Leadership Studies aan de Antioch Universiteit in de Verenigde Staten en daarnaast\u00a0 geaffilieerd onderzoeker van het Graduate Gender Program aan de Universiteit van Utrecht.\u00a0 Op 5 september 2011 kreeg Philomena Essed in Zuid Afrika een Eredoctoraat aan de Faculty of Education, University of Pretoria.

De training genaamd \u201cNegotiation and Mediation as a Conflict Resolution Instrument\u201d is bedoeld voor senior mediators vanuit heel Afrika. Zij hebben op verschillende manieren te maken met mediatie: als adviseur, als inside mediator, of als mediator in internationaal of nationaal conflict. De groep is eerder bij elkaar geweest tijdens trainingen georganiseerd door het Zuid-Afrikaanse BZ, de Afrikaanse Unie en UNWomen. In dat kader werd eerder ook al de African Women Mediation Forum opgericht &#8211; ter ondersteuning en versterking van de rol van vrouwen in vredesprocessen.<\/p>\n<p>De training heeft twee hoofddoelstellingen 1) de capaciteit van de vrouwen vergroten om succesvol op te treden als mediator in conflicten en 2) de institutionalisering en het beleid van de African Women Mediation Forum verder ontwikkelen.<\/p>\n<p>Dit netwerk event is bedoeld voor zowel u als de deelneemsters om ervaringen en idee\u00ebn uit te wisselen over beleid en instrumenten op gebied van vredesinitiatieven en\/of gender. En uiteraard om nuttige contacten te leggen voor de toekomst.<\/p>\n<p>De netwerkreceptie vindt plaats op dinsdagmiddag 13 oktober van 16:30 tot 17:30u op Instituut Clingendael in Den Haag.

Every day, perpetrators go unpunished. Most women and girls do not report their rapes, as those who do are blamed, even shunned by their communities. But, thanks to the support of Global Fund for Women grantee partners, these women are not only unbroken but fighting even harder for justice. Through counseling, education, and women-led peace building, our grantee partners are enabling recovery and working for a safe future for everyone.<\/p>\n<p>Can you make a generous gift today to join in supporting unbroken women in the DRC and around the world?<\/p>\n<p>Melinda was just 13 when she was raped by her 52-year old teacher. She became pregnant. Fearful to tell anyone, she carried the child, and even then her school did nothing. Her suffering didn&#8217;t end there. Just a few years later, she was raped and became pregnant again. After learning of her pregnancy, her attacker took her in and married her, only to cause her more suffering with his beatings and abuse.<\/p>\n<p>Then Global Fund grantee partner PAIF entered Melinda&#8217;s life, providing her with the shelter and support she so desperately needed. With help from PAIF, Melinda is staying strong. Together, even though she fears for her life, Melinda and PAIF are taking her husband to court and Melinda is rebuilding her life.<\/p>\n<p>DONATE: \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/community.globalfundforwomen.org\/t\/d-l-jjlkgk-tytluuljy-c\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>You can show women like Melinda you care with a gift today and have a long-term impact ensuring women remain unbroken!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Our grantees partners are creating a resilient movement of women activists and survivors who are working to end violence with their courage and determination.

Flying at more than 70,000 feet is really beautiful and peaceful. I enjoy the quiet, hearing myself breathing, and the hum of the engine. I never take it for granted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aug. 1, 2015, will mark the 60th anniversary of the U-2; making it one of the few aircraft to operate in the U.S. Air Force for more than 50 years.<\/p>\n<p>The U-2 first flew in 1955, in the same year the Montgomery, Alabama, bus boycott and the Civil Rights Movement began, setting the stage for desegregation. \u201cThe Air Force has always been on the forefront of breaking aviation and racial barriers,\u201d Tengesdal said. \u201cI am extremely proud of being the first black female U-2 pilot in history.\u201d The U-2 provides high-altitude intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance in direct support of national objectives. The aircraft enables the capture of imagery and delivers intelligence to decision makers worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>These missions are often at altitudes\u00a0 equivalent to approximately 13 miles. Pilots are required to wear full pressure suits during flight, similar to those astronauts wear. According to many aviation experts, limited visibility caused by the required helmets, along with the U-2\u2019s bicycle landing gear, makes it arguably the most difficult aircraft to land.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery aircraft I\u2019ve flown has something unique,\u201d Tengesdal said. \u201cThe U-2 is no exception. I enjoy the challenge of landing on two wheels.\u201d Tengesdal is no stranger to challenges. The colonel acknowledged that during her childhood, there were many opportunities for her to stray down the wrong path. With guidance from her mother and teachers, she excelled in high school, particularly in math and science. After high school, she attended the University of New Haven in Connecticut and graduated in 1994 with a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering. Afterward, she attended Officer Candidate School in the Navy, commissioned as an ensign in September 1994, and attended flight training shortly after. \u201cDuring the mid-90s, the military had just begun opening more roles for women in combat,\u201d Tengesdal said. \u201cCombat pilot was one of the opportunities. There was also a massive push for more minorities into the pilot training program. I remember when I attended flight training, it was racially diverse, which I was surprised to see. It was a good feeling. However, I could tell there were a few people who did not appreciate us.\u201d The first aircraft she flew was the Navy\u2019s SH-60B Seahawk helicopter, used for anti-submarine warfare, search and rescue, anti-ship warfare and special operations. She loved the versatility of the aircraft and its capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>In 2004, Tengesdal followed her dream of flying higher and cross-commissioned into the Air Force, joining less than 1,000 pilots to join the U-2 program at Beale.<\/p>\n<p>The U-2 pilot training is a rigorous nine-month course. Every candidate must conduct training \u00a0missions aboard the TU-2S, a duel seat trainer aircraft located only at Beale. A solo high-flight occurs as a final challenge. Upon completion, pilots are often deployed around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Lt. Col.

According to Tengesdal, many women have contacted her to tell her they are proud of her accomplishments and that she is an inspiration to them. \u201cI\u2019m incredibly fortunate. It\u2019s surreal.\u201d Tengesdal said. \u201cFrom my time in the Navy to my experiences in the U-2 program, I like to think I\u2019ve played a part in helping some of the troops on the ground get home safely.\u201d She has flown at the edge of space and witnessed a shooting star from the inside of a cockpit. She achieved what no African American woman ever had before.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is very uncommon, even for this day and age, to be a female pilot, much less a female minority,\u201d Tengesdal said. \u201cMy career field is very male dominated, but I hope I have helped other females with similar aspirations to realize this is an option.
