It's because of residents like Coral Montilla Gonzalez, who needs a wheelchair to get around. Going shopping downtown used to be a daunting task for her. That changed after the district was revamped to improve access for the disabled. Now kerbs have been lowered, wheelchair ramps added, and doors replaced with wide openings. "I can go into a lot of places that were not accessible to me before," she says. "I used to need help. Not anymore." The Linares initiative illustrates the importance of local government in the wider effort to bring disabled people into the mainstream. Such actions are drawing new interest as the EU - whose current ]]> http://www.ladysilvia.info/astronomia/13324/BambiniSociale/0/ http://www.ladysilvia.info/astronomia/13324/BambiniSociale/0/ Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:22:44 +0200 School children aged 6-12 are invited to take part in a competition to design a t-shirt for ESA astronaut Frank De Winne to wear during his mission to the International Space Station next year.

A major problem for law enforcement agencies is that many sites and children being abused are not in the EU - but in the developing world. In a speech on children's rights in Berlin in June last year the EU's Justice Commissioner Franco Frattini told delegates he was "saddened and shocked" to hear that the number of sites with child-sex material went up 1500% from 1997 to 2005.

Madagascar's parliament yesterday passed a law that bans child marriages, widespread on the African Indian Ocean Island. As reported by the local and international press, the new law raises the legal age of marriage to 18 years from 14 for girls and 15 for boys. The law will come into effect following approval by the senate and the President's signature. The law reinforces other international accords the country has already signed.

Madeleine McCann "A friend said he'd been speaking to people in Spain and this isn't news there," she told Sky News. "There was nothing about it at all. And there is the possibility that she could be in Spain. "I thought if I asked all my friends to pass it to their friends, we know a lot of people between us.

Il titolare dell'inchiesta, Luigi Boccia, che il 1 Settembre si era recato a casa della famiglia della piccola, ha risollecitato i cittadini ad ''informare anche anonimamente gli ordini di polizia''. Secondo gli investigatori la scomparsa di Denis non può non avere dei testimoni visto che la piccola è sparita sotto casa sua, in via La Bruna, dove c'era in corso il mercatino di quartiere.

Such situation is more evident in schools, where bullying is particularly pervasive and often motivated by xenophobia or homophobia. More evident and more harmful, since victims are adolescents, that is persons in the process of developing their personality, self-representation and sexual identity. In schools, among adolescents, offensive remarks towards homosexuals, insults, sometimes accompanied by threats or physical violence, are common: a survey carried out in Italy in 1999 pointed out that 3 homosexuals out of 4, both males and females, have been a victim of verbal assault or physical ]]> http://www.ladysilvia.info/ladysilvia/8911/BambiniSociale/0/ http://www.ladysilvia.info/ladysilvia/8911/BambiniSociale/0/ Sun, 04 Feb 2007 22:15:41 +0100 Each day Abadice Etienne engages in battle. He duels with the discouragement facing poor parents who want to send their children to school. He fights the fears of families who are superstitious and believe their future is bleak. This 25-year-old project worker at the Fauché Student Center (HA-311) struggles each day to convince members of his community that a mixture of belief in Christ, education and hope can lead them out of poverty. If they only knew what he knows. A Changed Destiny More than two decades ago, Abadice, the firstborn of a family of nine, had one destiny — grow up, drop out of school, and work with his father to support his siblings. This was the only future for a boy growing up in the crowded, impoverished coastal village of Port-Mango, Haiti.
