  • Madrid Statement
    Mainstreaming gender equity in health: The need to move forward Madrid Statement GENDER MAINSTREAMING HEALTH POLICES IN EUROPE · MADRID, SPAIN, 14 SEPTEMBER 2001 Gender Mainstreaming Programme Division of Technical Support Background All women and men have the right to live without discrimination in all spheres of life, in- cluding access to health care, education, 1 and equal remuneration for equal work . All women and men have the right to the 2 highest attainable standard of health . WHO’s Constitution states that: “The enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political bel- 3 ief, economic or social condition”. To achieve the highest standard of health, health policies have to recognize that women and men, owing to their biological differences and their gender roles, have different needs, obstacles and opportunities. The word “gender” is used to define those char- acteristics of women and men that are socially constructed, while “sex” refers to those that are biologically determined. People are born female or male but learn to be girls and boys who grow into women and men. This learned behaviour makes up gender identity and determines gender roles. Many Member States have endorsed inter- national agreements that recognize gender as a determinant of health. Very few countries in the European Region, however, have translated this international political commitment into clear policy at the national level. Participants from 28 European countries met in Madrid for the Seminar on Gender Mainstreaming Health Policies in Europe, on 14 September 2001, and, acknowledging the need to move from international commitments into implementation, made the following statement.

  • 'Gay Olympics'?: the Eurovision Song Contest and the Politics of LGBT/European Belonging Catherine Baker
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repository@Hull - CRIS The ‘Gay Olympics’?: The Eurovision Song Contest and the politics of LGBT/European belonging Catherine Baker (University of Hull) Accepted for publication in European Journal of International Relations Abstract The politics of gay and transgender visibility and representation at the Eurovision Song Contest, an annual televised popular music festival presented to viewers as a contest between European nations, show that processes of interest to Queer International Relations do not just involve states or even international institutions; national and transnational popular geopolitics over ‘LGBT rights’ and ‘Europeanness’ equally constitute the understandings of ‘the international’ with which Queer IR is concerned. Building on Cynthia Weber’s reading the persona of the 2014 Eurovision winner Conchita Wurst with ‘queer intellectual curiosity’, this paper demonstrates that Eurovision shifted from, in the late 1990s, an emerging site of gay and trans visibility to, by 2008–14, part of a larger discursive circuit taking in international mega-events like the Olympics, international human-rights advocacy, Europe/Russia relations, and the politics of state homophobia and transphobia. Contest organisers thus had to take positions – ranging from detachment to celebration – about ‘LGBT’ politics in host states and the Eurovision region. The construction of spatio-temporal hierarchies around attitudes to LGBT rights, however, revealed exclusions that corroborate other critical arguments on the reconfiguration of national and European identities around ‘LGBT equality’. Introduction The theoretical interventions of Queer International Relations, which recognise how sexualities and gender non-conformity are embedded in international politics, have ‘transformative’ potential for International Relations (Langlois, 2015: 1).

  • A Virtual Field Trip to Copenhagen, Denmark
    A Virtual Field Trip to Copenhagen, Denmark We will be taking a trip this morning to visit Copenhagen, Denmark! We will be reading the novel, Number the Stars, by Lois Lowery. The novel is set in the Scandinavian country of Denmark in 1943. To build background knowledge you will virtually tour areas of interest in the city described in the novel and learn more about the history of the Danish Jews. The story you are about to read takes place in Denmark, a country 16,639 square miles in size; 20th Century Denmark has been a peaceful land whose economy is based on farming and fishing. Its government is a constitutional Monarchy in which there is a ceremonial head of state. During World War II, when the story takes place, Christian X was the king. This is a country of little disharmony because all people can vote, have guaranteed political rights, and are entitled to practice any religion. Anti-semitism (hatred of Jews) has never been a problem here. On April 9, 1940, the German army overran Denmark. The government agreed to surrender provided that among other things there was no discrimination against Jews. Of a population of 4.5 million people, 8,000 were Jews, most of whom lived in Copenhagen and had been fully absorbed into Danish life. The Germans tried to poison Danish minds by producing anti-Semitic newspapers, films, and pamphlets. When they tried to burn down a synagogue, the Danish police stopped them. A resistance movement engaged in sabotage against the Nazi occupiers and harassed soldiers.

Munich, 26 November 2020 — Tallinn ranks 35th, followed by Helsinki (36th), Stockholm (45th), and Copenhagen (46th) in the Expat City Ranking 2020 by InterNations, the world’s largest expat community with around 4 million members. All four cities make it into the upper half of the Quality of Urban Living Index, with Helsinki (15th) and Copenhagen (17th) performing best. When it comes to the Urban Work Life Index, Stockholm (10th) outperforms the other cities, but they all make it into the top 10 for work-life balance, except for Tallinn (23rd). On the other hand, Tallinn ranks best in the Getting Settled Index, which just means a low 46th place, though. In the end, Tallinn is voted the best city in the region since it seems to be the most affordable: The Estonian capital ranks best by far in both the Finance & Housing and the Local Cost of Living Indices.

  • Effects of Traffic on NO and PM Emissions in Novi
    Pol. J. Environ. Stud. Vol. 23, No. 5 (2014), 1837-1842 Short Communication Effects of Traffic on NO2 and PM10 Emissions in Novi Sad Valentina Basarić1*, Vladimir Đorić2, Vuk Bogdanović1, Jelena Mitrović1, Jadranka Jović2 1Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad, Novi Sad, Serbia 2Faculty of Traffic and Transport Engineering, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia Received: 15 May 2013 Accepted: 2 April 2014 Abstract Traffic-related emissions depend on traffic volume, traffic flow composition, and fleet age, as well as urban housing density and meteorological conditions. Thus, software technology and high-quality (applicable) input databases are the key prerequisites for multidisciplinary and multiparameter analysis of the impact of traffic on air quality. A series of studies conducted in Novi Sad and the use of modern technology for data mea- surement and storage enabled improved assessment of the impact on air quality. This paper presents the sim- ulation results pertaining to the influence of traffic on NO2 and PM10 emissions at the most heavily congested city streets, based on the surrounding housing and meteorological conditions in Novi Sad. The results of this type of research have multiple benefits, including application in the development of air quality plans and testing environmental effects of different transport policy measures. Keywords: traffic, urban street environment, meteorological conditions, pollution Introduction pollution levels that tend to decrease harmful effects on human health and the environment [5, 8]. In Europe, high Air pollution modeling has received increasing political particulate matter (PM10) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) pollu- attention in terms of development of emission abatement tion is predominantly encountered in highly-populated strategies, city planning measures, and the identification of areas, where these are recognized as the main contributors.
