In order to mark the Centenary of the International Labour Organization (ILO), the Conference will be addressed by Heads of State and Government and other distinguished guests, who will gather to reaffirm their commitment to the principle of social justice upon which the ILO was founded 100 years ago and to share with the Conference their own experiences and their vision for the future of work. To begin this high-level section, we have the honour and privilege today to receive the visits of nine of these guests. Without further ado, I give the floor to the first of them, His Excellency Mr Andry Rajoelina, President of Madagascar. Statement by His Excellency Mr Andry Rajoelina, President of Madagascar Mr Rajoelina President of the Republic of Madagascar (Original French) The International Labour Organization has been tirelessly defending the values of justice and respect for dignity for a century, giving a human face to globalization. My first comments will be words of thanks. In this Centenary year, Madagascar salutes the men and women from all backgrounds who fought with all their might, with belief and conviction, to build a fairer and more decent world of work that values the individual and has favoured the fulfilment and well-being of every successive generation since 1919. I thank those thousands of anonymous people, as well as the big names, all of them benefactors of humanity. Since 1919, the ILO has contributed a great deal to the establishment of a world of work that values the individual and respect for human rights, and is mindful of the non- discrimination principle and equality of treatment. The ILO has worked to combat the worst workplace abuses. It has enabled great progress to be made in improving labour conditions all over the world. However, in spite of this century of activity, we must recognize that much remains to be done. There are numerous challenges: ending workplace violence and harassment; eradicating all forms of human trafficking and modern slavery; guaranteeing equality with regard to gender and background; and working to ensure that wages and labour conditions are respectful of human dignity. I solemnly declare here today that Madagascar stands ready to help the ILO in this task that is difficult, but nonetheless essential for the development of our world and the fulfilment of future generations. ILC108-Rec8D-En.docx 1 Since it joined in 1960, Madagascar has worked resolutely alongside the ILO to implement social justice and establish universal peace for the protection of workers from all countries. Today, we renew our commitment, in a specific and meaningful way, to greater social justice and to placing Madagascar on the path of inclusive development. We want to guarantee all Malagasy people a decent wage that can cover their basic needs and offer them a decent quality of life. In order to do that, on 1 May this year, on the occasion of International Labour Day, I announced a 19 per cent increase in the minimum wage. This followed a tripartite meeting attended by representatives of employers, trade unions and the government. In the same way, we are working ceaselessly to implement a system of social protection for independent workers and vulnerable populations. With a young population, 70 per cent of whom are aged under 25, we cannot imagine Madagascar in the future without taking into account young people today. Every year, 400,000 young Malagasy people enter the labour market. Without any prospects or openings, many find themselves unemployed and become a burden on society. To alleviate this, we have established a national entrepreneurship programme, called Fihariana, which means to free yourself or take control of your own destiny. With a budget of €50 million, this programme offers rapid financing, ranging from €300 to €50,000, for young people, women, farmers, farm workers, and even start-ups, which is a big first in the history of Madagascar. Through this national programme, we want to encourage young Malagasy people to train themselves, to take a risk and take control of their own future, while also helping the development of the country. We believe that the promotion of employment for all concerns more than simply ensuring employee status. Creating your own work and your own company can help to overcome the problems of underemployment and unemployment and to put an end to violence, insecurity and extreme poverty. Could one imagine that slavery would still be claiming new victims in 2019? No, this is unacceptable, it is a reality and it must be stopped. Did you know that more than 4,000 women are currently confined and held against their will in inhuman conditions in the Middle East? This is a cause that is particularly close to my heart, because, in accordance with our international commitments, and also because it is the duty of the State to protect its fellow citizens without exception, at the end of March, I sent a delegation to repatriate some of our citizens who had sent a distress call from Kuwait. These women had been physically and psychologically abused, beaten and even raped. Many of them came home pregnant. This modern slavery is rampant and its effects are irreversible. I therefore call on all here present in this assembly and on all who hear this message: let us take responsibility for our actions. Let us work together to put an end to modern slavery, to human trafficking. Let us end the silence and indifference that enable this evil to persist. Madagascar has faced up to its responsibilities and will continue to do so. We are also taking measures to combat gender-based violence and the different forms of violence against women and children, as well as forced child marriage. At my instigation, we have substantially increased the budgets of the ministries responsible for social issues. To do this, Madagascar has set the goal of eradicating forced labour, modern slavery and human trafficking within ten years and banning all forms of child labour. Through its willingness to go further and faster with regard to respect for fundamental labour rights and principles, I am proud to say that our country is now the first pathfinder country in Alliance 8.7, which aims to combat human trafficking, abolish forced labour and eliminate all forms of child labour. Madagascar is aware of the challenges that we need to overcome in our development. However, I will never prioritize economic growth to the detriment of the social well-being of the Malagasy people. To this end, I have designated decent work for all as one of the priorities of our general Government policy, particularly for the most vulnerable: young people, women, craft workers and agricultural workers as well as herders. We must create a 2 ILC108-Rec8D-En.docx sense of usefulness and non-expendability and give each citizen back their dignity by restoring the true value of work. By working alongside the ILO, we believe that we will achieve our goal to guarantee decent work for all, which is a crucial step in moving towards a better future. Today, I have personally delivered to the Director-General six instruments of ratification, as a demonstration of our continued engagement within the ILO. These concern the Migrant Workers (Supplementary Provisions) Convention, 1975 (No. 143); the Labour Relations (Public Service) Convention, 1978 (No. 151); the Collective Bargaining Convention, 1981 (No. 154); the Private Employment Agencies Convention, 1997 (No.

And my father had been in the Spanish-American ,ar and had left and come back through Mexico where he stopped off and worked in the American mbassy in Mexico City for awhile on his way back to the States. And he used to talk about it. I loved travel books, and maps, and so forth. As a result, when I went to college, instead of going to the 6niversity of Colorado, I went to the 6niversity of California at Berkeley because it had a major in international relations. So I sort of had this idea in the back of my head, not knowing really what it was, since high school days.

  • The United Nations' Political Aversion to the European Microstates
    UN-WELCOME: The United Nations’ Political Aversion to the European Microstates -- A Thesis -- Submitted to the University of Michigan, in partial fulfillment for the degree of HONORS BACHELOR OF ARTS Department Of Political Science Stephen R. Snyder MARCH 2010 “Elephants… hate the mouse worst of living creatures, and if they see one merely touch the fodder placed in their stall they refuse it with disgust.” -Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia, 77 AD Acknowledgments Though only one name can appear on the author’s line, there are many people whose support and help made this thesis possible and without whom, I would be nowhere. First, I must thank my family. As a child, my mother and father would try to stump me with a difficult math and geography question before tucking me into bed each night (and a few times they succeeded!). Thank you for giving birth to my fascination in all things international. Without you, none of this would have been possible. Second, I must thank a set of distinguished professors. Professor Mika LaVaque-Manty, thank you for giving me a chance to prove myself, even though I was a sophomore and studying abroad did not fit with the traditional path of thesis writers; thank you again for encouraging us all to think outside the box. My adviser, Professor Jenna Bednar, thank you for your enthusiastic interest in my thesis and having the vision to see what needed to be accentuated to pull a strong thesis out from the weeds. Professor Andrei Markovits, thank you for your commitment to your students’ work; I still believe in those words of the Moroccan scholar and will always appreciate your frank advice.

  • An Analysis of Five European Microstates
    Geoforum, Vol. 6, pp. 187-204, 1975. Pergamon Press Ltd. Printed in Great Britain The Plight of the Lilliputians: an Analysis of Five European Microstates Honor6 M. CATUDAL, Jr., Collegeville, Minn.” Summary: The mini- or microstate is an important but little studied phenomenon in political geography. This article seeks to redress the balance and give these entities some of the attention they deserve. In general, five microstates are examined; all are located in Western Europe-Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican. The degree to which each is autonomous in its internal affairs is thoroughly explored. And the extent to which each has control over its external relations is investigated. Disadvantages stemming from its small size strike at the heart of the ministate problem. And they have forced these nations to adopt practices which should be of use to large states. Zusammenfassung: Dem Zwergstaat hat die politische Geographie wenig Beachtung geschenkt. Urn diese Liicke zu verengen, werden hier fiinf Zwergstaaten im westlichen Europa untersucht: Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, San Marino und der Vatikan.

  • Statement by the Most Excellent Captains Regent of the Republic Of
    Statement By The Most Excellent Captains Regent Of the Republic of San Marino Mrs. Fausta Simona Morganti and Mr. Cesare Antonio Gasperoni At the High Level Plenary Meeting of the 60th Session of the General Assembly Of the United Nations Thursday, September 15th , 2005 Please check against delivery Mr President, Mr Secretary General, Excellencies, Honourable Delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen, I am taking the floor today also on behalf of my Peer since, according to our legal system, the Republic of San Marino has two Heads of State, who jointly guarantee a democratic decision-making process. After having identified and established, five years ago, in this very hall, the main goals to be achieved at the beginning of the XXI century, we now gather again to discuss and decide how to reach them. Undoubtedly, the success of this five year old process - or its failure - depends only on us. The challenges of the Millennium Declaration, contained in the Secretary General report entitled "In larger freedom: towards development, security and human rights for all" are trans-national in nature and trans-institutional in terms of possible solutions. We are gathered here because we are aware that these challenges cannot be addressed individually by each Country. Indeed, a close cooperation among Governments, international organizations and non-governmental organizations representing all sectors of civil society is essential. In this spirit, the Republic of San Marino - characterized by a century- old tradition of freedom, democracy, peace and solidarity - has always upheld multilateralism, prompted by the conviction that in the modern world there are no frontiers able to stop both positive and negative events.

  • San Marino 2020 Human Rights Report
    SAN MARINO 2020 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Republic of San Marino is a multiparty democracy. Twice yearly, the popularly elected unicameral Great and General Council (parliament) selects two of its members to serve as Captains Regent (coheads of state). They preside over meetings of the Council and of the Congress of State (cabinet), which has no more than 10 other members (secretaries of state), selected by the Council. Parliamentary elections were held in December 2019 and observers considered them generally free and fair. The Civil Police operates under the authority of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Captains Regent oversee the Gendarmerie (national police force) and National Guard (military) when they are performing duties related to public order and security. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs exercises control over such administrative functions as personnel and equipment, and the courts exercise control over the Gendarmerie when it acts as judicial police. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. There were no reports of significant human rights abuses. The government had mechanisms in place to identify, investigate, and prosecute officials who commit human rights abuses. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary Deprivation of Life and Other Unlawful or Politically Motivated Killings There were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. b. Disappearance There were no reports of disappearances by or on behalf of government authorities. c. Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment SAN MARINO 2 The law prohibits such practices, and there were no reports that government officials employed them.

    Tour Code MCMS MICROSTATES OF EUROPE San Marino, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Andorra, Vatican City & Luxembourg 20 days Created on: 1 Oct, 2021 Day 1 Arrival in Rome Today we arrive in Rome and transfer to our hotel. There are few cities in the world as beautiful as Rome, and few are as glamorous. With an artistic heritage dating back to Etruscan times, Rome is one of the world’s great art cities. Throughout history, it has played a starring role in the major upheavals of Western art and the results are here for us to see -- breathtaking baroque churches, stunning Renaissance frescoes and amazing classical statues. Overnight in Rome. Included Meal(s): Dinner, if required. Day 2 Rome: City Sightseeing Rome is the true 'Eternal City', and it boasts one grand tourist attraction after another. For any traveller the memories of a visit to the Roman Forum and the Colosseum will last forever. This ancient city has two focal points: the Colosseum to the east, and the Campidoglio (Capitoline Hill) to the west. In between lie the Forums. Rome is best explored on foot, and today we will experience many of the impressive sights on offer. Our grand tour will of course include a visit to the Roman Forum and the Colosseum. Though it's only a shell of its former glory, the Colosseum remains the greatest architectural heritage from ancient Rome. It was here in this massive structure, capable of holding 80,000 people, that the fabled and bloody gladiatorial combats took place. The ancient Roman Forum was the political and commercial center of Rome when Rome was at its greatest power.
