Anne Styren and All Rights Reserved Continued on page 8 Editor’s Message by Lois Colley Happy New Year to our members who celebrated the New Year on January 1. The most dramatic change in date for the New Year occurred in 45 BC, after Julius Caesar issued an edict syncing the calendar with the sun instead of the moon. That resulted in an official shift of the new year but it wasn’t until 1582 that the Gregorian calendar established the new year as January 1. Since that time, most of the world has con- formed to the calendar established by the Romans. Several cultures still celebrate a more traditional new year. This year, the Chinese New Year, which lasts for a month, occurs on January 28, 2017. Rosh Hasha- nah will be celebrated from September 20-22. Diwali (Hindu calendar) will be October 19. The Islamic New Year is September 21 and prior to the 1940’s, New Year’s Day was celebrated on March 1 in India. Whether you are eating dumplings, grapes or wheat noodles to acknowledge the new year, one thing is for sure, it’s an opportunity for a fresh start. Read on in this edition of The Councilor. New member Mamoudou Ndiaye provides an insightful synopsis of crime in South Africa and Steve Kirby weighs in on ethics for all of us.

  • LETTER to G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS
    LETTER TO G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS We write to call for urgent action to address the global education emergency triggered by Covid-19. With over 1 billion children still out of school because of the lockdown, there is now a real and present danger that the public health crisis will create a COVID generation who lose out on schooling and whose opportunities are permanently damaged. While the more fortunate have had access to alternatives, the world’s poorest children have been locked out of learning, denied internet access, and with the loss of free school meals - once a lifeline for 300 million boys and girls – hunger has grown. An immediate concern, as we bring the lockdown to an end, is the fate of an estimated 30 million children who according to UNESCO may never return to school. For these, the world’s least advantaged children, education is often the only escape from poverty - a route that is in danger of closing. Many of these children are adolescent girls for whom being in school is the best defence against forced marriage and the best hope for a life of expanded opportunity. Many more are young children who risk being forced into exploitative and dangerous labour. And because education is linked to progress in virtually every area of human development – from child survival to maternal health, gender equality, job creation and inclusive economic growth – the education emergency will undermine the prospects for achieving all our 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and potentially set back progress on gender equity by years.

  • President Danilo Türk of the Republic of Slovenia, Your Excellencies
    SPEECH BY H.E. JUDGE HISASHI OWADA, PRESIDENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL COURT OF JUSTICE, ON THE OCCASION OF THE VISIT BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF SLOVENIA, H.E. DR. DANILO TÜRK 29 NOVEMBER 2011 President Danilo Türk of the Republic of Slovenia, Your Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, On behalf of the International Court of Justice, I wish to extend to you, Mr. President, a most sincere welcome and convey to you our great sense of honour and privilege on the occasion of your visit. I am particularly pleased to welcome you to the International Court of Justice today since you are yourself a highly regarded international lawyer. I note that you enjoyed an illustrious career as an academic at the Faculty of Law in Ljubljana, where you headed the University’s Institute of International Law and International Relations. Before your election as President of Slovenia in 2007, you also had a long and impressive career in the United Nations. In 1992 you assumed the position of Permanent Representative of the Republic of Slovenia at the United Nations, where I had the pleasure of sharing common experiences with you, Mr. President. You were also President of the Security Council in August 1998 and November 1999, and you went on to serve for five years as a senior member of the United Nations Secretariat. Mr. President, the Republic of Slovenia is one of the youngest members of the international community, celebrating its 20th anniversary of independence this year. However, its experience of statehood can be traced more than a thousand years back, to the Duchy of Carantania (from the 7th to the 11th century), which was the oldest known independent Slavonic union in this area and has sometimes been regarded by historians as one of the most democratic communities of its time.
