  • LANDMINE MONITOR REPORT 2002: Toward a Mine-Free World
    LANDMINE MONITOR REPORT 2002: Toward a Mine-Free World www.icbl.org/lm/2002 KEY DEVELOPMENTS SINCE MARCH 2001 STATES PARTIES ALBANIA: On 4 April 2002, Albania completed the destruction of its stockpile of 1,683,860 antipersonnel mines. No mines are being retained for training or development purposes. Albania has identified a total of 85 contaminated areas, totaling 14 million square meters of land. Lack of funding has hampered clearance efforts. During 2001, a total of 302,000 square meters of land was cleared, including 744 antipersonnel mines. There were nine new mine and UXO casualties in 2001, a significant reduction from the previous year. Albania submitted its initial Article 7 Report in April 2002. ALGERIA: Algeria ratified the Mine Ban Treaty on 9 October 2001, and the treaty entered into force for Algeria on 1 April 2002. An interministerial commission responsible for the landmine issue is being established. ANGOLA: Angola ratified the Mine Ban Treaty on 5 July 2002. There have been no reports of new use of antipersonnel mines since the April 2002 peace agreement. The government created a new Inter-Sectoral Commission on Demining and Humanitarian Assistance to be responsible for policy-making, coordination of mine action and victim assistance, and the design of a new National Mine Action Plan. According to the mine action NGOs operating in Angola, 6.8 million square meters of land were cleared during 2001. A total of 339 mine and UXO accidents, resulting in 660 casualties, were reported in 2001, a significant decline from the year 2000. ARGENTINA: Argentina told Landmine Monitor that of the 13,025 mines it had officially declared as retained for training purposes, 12,025 will be emptied of their explosive content to make inert “exercise mines.” Argentina also reported for the first time that the Army will keep 1,160 FMK-1 antipersonnel mines to use as fuzes for antivehicle mines, apparently for training purposes.

  • Criminal Background Check Procedures
    Shaping the future of international education New Edition Criminal Background Check Procedures CIS in collaboration with other agencies has formed an International Task Force on Child Protection chaired by CIS Executive Director, Jane Larsson, in order to apply our collective resources, expertise, and partnerships to help international school communities address child protection challenges. Member Organisations of the Task Force: • Council of International Schools • Council of British International Schools • Academy of International School Heads • U.S. Department of State, Office of Overseas Schools • Association for the Advancement of International Education • International Schools Services • ECIS CIS is the leader in requiring police background check documentation for Educator and Leadership Candidates as part of the overall effort to ensure effective screening. Please obtain a current police background check from your current country of employment/residence as well as appropriate documentation from any previous country/countries in which you have worked. It is ultimately a school’s responsibility to ensure that they have appropriate police background documentation for their Educators and CIS is committed to supporting them in this endeavour. It is important to demonstrate a willingness and effort to meet the requirement and obtain all of the paperwork that is realistically possible. This document is the result of extensive research into governmental, law enforcement and embassy websites. We have tried to ensure where possible that the information has been obtained from official channels and to provide links to these sources. CIS requests your help in maintaining an accurate and useful resource; if you find any information to be incorrect or out of date, please contact us at: [email protected].

  • Mauritius - United States Department of State
    Mauritius - United States Department of State https://www.state.gov/reports/2020-trafficking-in-persons-report/mauritius/ The Government of Mauritius does not fully meet the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking but is making significant efforts to do so. The government demonstrated overall increasing efforts compared to the previous reporting period; therefore Mauritius remained on Tier 2. These efforts included convicting two traffickers, providing protective services to all identified victims, and conducting nationwide campaigns to raise awareness of trafficking. The government established and allocated funds for its first shelter for adult trafficking victims during the reporting period. The government continued to screen migrant workers for trafficking indicators upon their arrival to the country and through inspections of migrant worker employment sites. However, the government did not meet the minimum standards in several key areas. The government continued to lack standard operating procedures to identify and refer adult victims to comprehensive protection services, and no government ministry took responsibility for leading efforts to combat adult sex trafficking. While the government established a shelter for adult victims, authorities’ lack of expertise hindered shelter operations. Coordination between law enforcement and prosecutors slightly improved; however, the judicial process continued to be prohibitively slow, discouraging some victims from pursing legal redress. The government did not adopt a national action plan for the sixth consecutive year. Improve comprehensive protection services for adult trafficking victims by developing and implementing standardized procedures for proactive victim identification and referral to protective services—especially among at-risk populations including individuals in commercial sex and migrant workers—and by ensuring provision of adequate assistance once identified.

General Sir John Abercromby. They marched towards the capital and after a brief skirmishing, they took possession of the island. The island of Isle de France became British and resumed its former Dutch name Mauritius. Since that time a British Garrison remained on the island for both internal and external security. The British troops were camped in various parts of the island and it was in 1916 that the Headquarters was established at Vacoas. In 1835, the military strength was around 2,000. In 1931, the strength of Mauritius Regiment along with the Royal Navy and Air Force was 2,694. In later years a troop of the King’s own African Rifles joined the British Garrison. During the war and after, the local command became part of the East Africa Command when the British Garrison consisted mainly of Battalions of the King’s African Rifles. Creation of the Special Mobile Force and Its Role Regimental Motto - We’ll do it, What is it? In 1960, the British Government decided to withdraw its garrison from Mauritius after 150 years of service in the island.

  • Mauritius 2016 Human Rights Report
    MAURITIUS 2016 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Mauritius is a multiparty democracy governed by the prime minister, the Council of Ministers, and the National Assembly. International and local observers judged elections for both the prime minister and legislators in December 2014 to be generally free and fair. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. The most significant human rights problems reported include security force abuse of suspects and detainees and violence and discrimination against women. Other reported human rights problems included arbitrary arrests, corruption, abuse and sexual exploitation of children, human trafficking, discrimination against persons with HIV/AIDS, restrictions on labor rights, antiunion discrimination, and child labor. The government took steps to prosecute and punish officials who committed abuses, whether in the security services or elsewhere in the government; but enforcement was inconsistent and sometimes politically motivated, resulting in the appearance of impunity. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary Deprivation of Life and other Unlawful or Politically Motivated Killings Unlike the previous year, there were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. In March 2015 Iqbal Toofany died in police custody. The commissioner of police completed an investigation and referred the case to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions. There were no further developments at year’s end. b. Disappearance There were no reports of politically motivated disappearances. MAURITIUS 2 c. Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment The constitution and law prohibit such practices, but there continued to be widespread reports of police abuses.
