    PRESS RELEASE No: 153/2019 Date: 5th March 2019 CyberCenturion Finals Three Gibraltar teams competing in the CyberCenturion finals leave for London on Wednesday 6th March. The finals are being hosted at Queen Elizabeth Park in London on Thursday 7th March. This is the first time that an under 14 team has qualified for the finals of the competition. The teams are being accompanied by teachers from Bayside Comprehensive School, trainers from GVC Holdings and the University of Gibraltar’s Director of ICT. The two over 14 teams secured their place in the top 10 of their qualifying rounds, with the Under 14 team qualifying in the Top 5 of their category. The teams overcame three qualifying rounds, all held in the University of Gibraltar, to qualify from over 300 teams that entered. Qualifying rounds were based on insecure Linux and Windows operating systems. Overall, eight operating systems were secured during these rounds. The teams have been preparing for the finals by undergoing specialist training that has been provided by the security team at GVC Holdings. The hoodies for all team members have been sponsored by EY accountants, with Gibtelecom supplying two broadband lines for students to use during training their sessions. There is no doubt that this support from the private sector plays a huge part in the teams' successes so far. The Minister for Education, John Cortes, said: “Once again I congratulate our Cyber Centurion teams for qualifying and wish them the best of luck in the finals this week. As usual, they have already done us proud.

  • Conference Report
    Sustaining Partnerships: a conference on conservation and sustainability in UK Overseas Territories, Crown Dependencies and other small island communities Gibraltar 11th to 15th July 2015 Sustaining Partnerships international environmental conference in Gibraltar On 11th July 2015, conservation workers, scientific researchers, representatives of civil society environmental groups and governments environment departments from across the UK Overseas Territories met in Gibraltar for a 5-day gathering. The purpose was to exchange best practice, discuss successes, explore innovations and forge partnerships with the overall aim to ensure that the wildlife, and the ecosystems of the UK Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies is secured for future generations by the people. Over 90% of the global biodiversity for which the UK has responsibility under international agreements depends on these territories and their ecosystems are vital too for services to humans. The conference was organised by the UK Overseas Territories Conservation Forum (UKOTCF) and the Government of Gibraltar, with support from the Gibraltar Ornithological and Natural History Society. Seventeen UK territories were represented, several up to ministerial level, as well as nine other countries, with over 100 participants. Blue iguanas, mountain chickens (a threatened frog species), spiky yellow woodlice, sea turtles, gigantic whales and millions of albatross all have homes in the UKOTs. Many are not found anywhere else on Earth. Each UKOT has a set of unique challenges but they all share some similarities – for example, small human populations, often remote locations, many are low-lying islands, and small land areas. This means that many of them face the same pressures for example, the enormous pressures caused by climate change and sea- level rise, unsustainable development, and alien species introduced by humans.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE No: 14/2016 Date: 11th January 2016 The Chief Minister’s New Year’s Message 2016 Good evening, Once again this year Christmas will happily have been marked in most Gibraltarian households with growing prosperity and abundance. This will have been true for the family celebration of all the other festivals of the many religions that peacefully co-exist in our small nation. In most homes there will have been much leftover food and drink. Like many of you, my wife and I have enjoyed the Christmas festivities with our children. It is certainly true that children really make Christmas. And in most homes in our Community they will have received more gifts and toys than they can play with. Yet there will have been some who have not had plenty. They have needed help to put food on the table. In Gibraltar, that is, blessedly, a small number of people. We must continue to work to ensure that the numbers in such a situation in our Community is always reducing. HM Government of Gibraltar • 6 Convent Place • Gibraltar GX11 1AA t +350 20070071 f +350 20076396 e [email protected] w gibraltar.gov.gi In the rest of the world, too many are suffering. We will all have seen on our television screens how terrorism and wars are destroying lives, ruining economies and bringing suffering to families. And so as we start the year, we need to work together so that everything we each do is designed to ensure that Gibraltar continues to enjoy prosperity and abundance.

This year saw this House pass unanimously a motion recognising that our planet faces a climate emergency. While there are still many people who would deny this fact, it is true to say that none sit in this House. I congratulate the Minister for showing leadership in bringing the motion and Government as a whole for seeing the 10 wisdom of accepting a minor amendment which would allow its unanimous passage. There is no doubt that all of us seated here understand the urgency of the global crisis being faced and appreciate the need for urgency and continued unanimity in mapping out our community’s future.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE No: 492/2021 Date: 28th June 2021 Statement by the Minister for Equality the Hon. Samantha Sacramento MP - Pride Month 2021 Today, 28th June is the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots or Stonewall Uprising as it is also called, an event that happened in New York in 1969. Many people may already know the meaning of this historic event and what its eventual consequences were. However, I think it is still important to repeat this for the benefit of people who do not know, so that they can appreciate the importance of Pride Month in Gibraltar and why our Government has introduced different initiatives to commemorate it. In the early hours of the 28th June in 1969, the New York Police Department raided the Stonewall Inn, a gay club in the Greenwich Village in New York. During this raid the Police roughly mistreated and removed patrons from the club. As a result, there were 6 days of violent clashes with the police. This event proved to be a catalyst for gay rights movements across the USA and in other places around the world. It is evident that LGBTQ+ people have suffered a great deal in the past and continue to be victimised today in many parts of the world. This year, to mark the start of the Pride Month, HM Government flew LGBTQ+ Pride flags at different locations, including the land frontier and at No 6 Convent Place on the 1st June. The flags are again flying today to commemorate the Stonewall Riots. The Moorish Castle was also brightly lit up with the rainbow colours on the 1st of June and again will be lit up this evening.
