Uruguay 2018 International Religious Freedom Report
URUGUAY 2018 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides for freedom of religion and affirms the state does not support any particular religion. Legal statutes prohibit discrimination based on religion. The government launched an interagency, computer-based system to monitor and report on issues of discrimination, including discrimination based on religion. A judge sentenced four individuals to probation for aggravated violence and hate crimes after they were convicted of physically and psychologically attacking a colleague on religious and racial grounds. Two Jewish travelers were denied entry into a hostel. The government condemned the act, referred the case to the interagency antidiscrimination committee, opened an investigation, and closed the hostel. Some government officials made public statements and wore clothing disparaging the beliefs and practices of the Roman Catholic Church. In November media reported that Minister of Education Maria Julia Munoz called evangelical Protestant churches “the plague that grows” in a WhatsApp group. The government’s official commitment to secularism at times generated controversy between religious groups and political leaders. Religious organizations welcomed opportunities for dialogue with the government on religious freedom. The installation of religious monuments in public places continued to generate tensions. The government approved two cemetery sites for the Islamic community. The government supported several events commemorating the Holocaust, including -

AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of Federico Cernuschi Rodilosso For
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Federico Cernuschi Rodilosso for the degree of Master of Science in Geology presented on February 11, 2011. Title: Geology of the Cretaceous Lascano-East Intrusive Complex: Magmatic Evolution and Mineralization Potential of the Merín Basin, Uruguay Abstract approved: John H. Dilles The Cretaceous Merín aborted-rift basin of eastern Uruguay is composed of sub- alkaline Paraná-Etendeka province basaltic flows and shallow intrusives (~133 to 131 Ma), rhyolitic ignimbrites (~130 to 128 Ma) and associated mildly alkaline to alkaline intrusions and volcanic rocks (~128 to 127 Ma). Four intrusive complexes from 20 to >30 kilometers wide are identified by circular positive gravity and cospatial magnetic anomalies and are aligned in a northeast-southwest trend. Whereas the outcropping Valle Chico complex is mainly composed by mildly alkaline syenites, drilling at Lascano East revealed mostly alkaline gabbros and trachytes. The Lascano-West and San Luis concealed complexes are inferred by the location of the aeromagnetic and gravity anomalies. Ten lithogeochemical units were identified and grouped into three rock associations. A sub-alkaline group composed of Treinta y Tres A basalts, Treinta y Tres B basalts and gabbros, Lavalleja rhyolitic ignimbries and San Miguel granodiorite granophyres; a mildly alkaline group including the Santa Lucía basalts and gabbros, Aiguá rhyolites, Valle Chico syenites and India Muerta rhyolites; and an alkaline group including the Lascano alkaline gabbro to trachyte series and the Arrayán olivine basalts. The only observed sedimentary rocks are conglomerates grouped as the Quebracho Formation. Melting of a shallow mantle source (depleted mantle) combined with abundant crustal assimilation likely produced the diversity of the sub-alkaline magmatic rocks. -

Here we analyze at- titudes toward border Portuguese and that language in general in the Uruguayan territory during the Luso-Brazilian military occupation (1816–1828) and later in the century and identify two parallel realities: a predominant neutral attitude toward Portuguese, as the language was not an object of evaluation; and the ex- istence of negative attitudes toward Portuguese promoted by the authorities in Montevideo. -

Major Soils of Bella Union Area in Northwestern Uruguay1
Major Soils of Bella Union Area in Northwestern Uruguay1 M.A. Lugo-L6pez, Juan P. Carnelli, G. Acevedo and L. H. Riuera2 ABSTRACT The soils of the area of Bella Union are deep, of high inherent fertility, and can hold and supply sufficient amounts of water to a growing crop. They are mostly sandy clay loams and clay loams. Soil pH varies between 5.2 and 6.4. Some 38% of the soils have drainage problems mostly because of underlying impervious layers dominated by montmorillonitic clays. Irrigation and drainage are essential to guarantee high levels of crop production. Erosion can be a problem in some of the soils if they are not adequately protected. The use of open drains of suitable depth and spacing will help to maintain an optimum environment for the crops and, if well designed, can also help to minimize soil erosion. INTRODUCTION The area around Bella Union, in northwestern Uruguay, offers excep tional opportunities for crop production and livestock raising under adequate management. Bella Union is located at lat. 30°19' S and long. 57°34' W at the frontiers with Brazil and Argentina. Bella Union is 640 km from Montevideo and 140 km from both Artigas, capital city of the Department, and Saito, the nearest towns with airports. There are railroad connections between Bella Union and Montevideo. However, the network of rural roads is poor and transportation costs of sugarcane, livestock, other produce and fertilizer are high. In the Bella Union area, there are around 10,000 inhabitants; about one-half of them in rural areas. -
1 Regional Project/Programme
REGIONAL PROJECT/PROGRAMME PROPOSAL PART I: PROJECT/PROGRAMME INFORMATION Climate change adaptation in vulnerable coastal cities and ecosystems of the Uruguay River. Countries: Argentina Republic and Oriental Republic of Uruguay Thematic Focal Area1: Disaster risk reduction and early warning systems Type of Implementing Entity: Regional Implementing Entity (RIE) Implementing Entity: CAF – Corporación Andina de Fomento (Latin American Development Bank) Executing Entities: Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development of Argentina and Ministry of Housing, Land Planning and Environment of Uruguay. Amount of Financing 13.999.996 USD (in U.S Dollars Equivalent) Requested: 1 Project / Programme Background and Context: 1.1. Problem to be addressed – regional perspective 1. The Project’s implementation is focused on the lower Uruguay river´s littoral area, specifically in the vulnerable coastal cities and ecosystems in both Argentinean and Uruguayan territories. The lower Uruguay river´s littoral plays a main role being a structuring element for territorial balance since most cities and port-cities are located in it, with borther bridges between the two countries (Fray Bentos – Gualeguaychú; Paysandú – Colón; and Salto – Concordia). The basin of the Uruguay river occupies part of Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil, with a total area of approximately 339.000 Km2 and an average flow rate of 4.500 m3 s-1. It´s origin is located in Serra do Mar (Brazil), and runs for 1.800 Km until it reaches Río de la Plata. A 32% of its course flows through Brazilian territory, 38% forms the Brazil-Argentina boundary and a 30% forms the Argentina-Uruguay boundary. 2. The Project’s area topography is characterized by a homogeneous landform without high elevations, creating meandric waterways, making it highly vulnerable to floods as one of its main hydro-climatic threats, which has been exacerbated by the effects of climate change (CC). -
Like a Grain of Mustard Seed
1 LIKE A GRAIN OF MUSTARD SEED 14th Oxford Institute of Methodist Theological Studies August 2018 Mirtha Elizabeth Coitinho Machiarena 2 The Methodist Church in Uruguay1 The Methodist Church in Uruguay (IMU),2 is an autonomous church organized at national level, with its own authorities. The highest authority is the General Assembly which every four years chooses the President, Vice-president and the rest of the National Board integrated by pastors and lays. These National Board supervises the whole Church. “Besides its one thousand members there is a wider community of about two thousand people who are related to the Church” in one way or another.3 IMU adopted the system of a President as a leader instead of the episcopal tradition. The position is open to clergy as well as lay members. Women are able to be ordained. The Church has also “decided that pastors that wish to minister to homosexuals could do so freely.”.4 From its beginnings to these days, the Methodist Church has had an active role in society through the Press, radio,5 books and magazines, concerts, Sexual Diversity groups, medical clinics, pre-school nurseries, work with people with differently abled, universities, workshops against domestic violence, the creation of Hospital Evangélico, National Federation of Youth, Federation of Protestant Churches, etc. “Ecumenical relationships6 and projects are an inseparable part of the church, nationally and internationally, providing leadership to the world church (i.e. Emilio Castro, former secretary of the WCC).” 7 1 Uruguay, formally the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, is a small South American country located at the southern part of the continent bordered by Brazil and Argentina, with Río de la Plata to the south and the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast.
