Recognizing the important role played by civil society in the process of implementing and monitoring the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the need for increased involvement in the processes necessary to implement these rights at the national level, the following organizations take this opportunity to provide comments and contributions to the Universal Periodic Review process, hoping thus to give visibility to the Convention and contribute to implementation of the rights of people with disabilities provided by this human rights convention. Introduction 2. Brazil is a country of continental dimensions and is part of the list of nations with higher levels of social inequality in the world. According to the Instituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada (IPEA), 10 million people live with less than US$ 1per day. Approximately 54 million people (30% of the population) are considered poor. Of these, 34 million live in poverty and 20 million in extreme poverty. 3. In this scenario of poverty and inequality, disability stands out. According to preliminary data from the last Census, there are 45.6 million people with disability in Brazil - or approximately 23.9% of the population. 4. Among the Brazilian regions, the north and northeast represented higher percentage of disability incidence than the national average - 16.7% and 16.1%, respectively. According to data from the census of the Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) in 2000, 15.3% of women and 13.7% of men have some form of disability. When comparing ethnic origin, disability is higher among indigenous peoples (17%) and African descent - or afrodescendent (17.5%) and browns (pardo) (17%) - as designated by the IBGE. Among people over 15 years old, the deficiency represents 18.8%. The rural population represents 15.1% and 14.3% are urban population considering the total of persons with disabilities in the country, according to the same survey. 5. The School Census (Censo Escolar) of 2010 indicates 10% increase in enrollment made in Special Education - from 639,718 in 2009 came to 702,603, of which 218,271 (31%) are in special classes or schools exclusive and 484,332 (69%) in common classes. Enrollment of students with disabilities are basically concentrated in elementary education (74.4%), with little presence in high school (4%) and infant education(9.8%) and higher education and adult (11.3%). Currently 30% of the nation's public schools are considered accessible. 6. The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities was the first human rights treaty incorporated the Brazilian legal system with the status of constitutional law. This achievement was a result of the efforts of groups engaged in promoting and protecting the rights of persons with disabilities, members of civil society, nongovernmental organizations, activists in the area of human rights and people with disabilities, as well as public and academic authorities. 7. After more than two years that the Convention entered into force, Brazil must submit its official report to the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. From April to June 2011, the Brazilian government, through the National Secretariat for Promoting the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, through the Public Consultation No. 01/2011, has opened the text of the report for comments and contributions from civil society. Until de closure of this UPR submission, Brazil, however, has not yet sent its report to the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. 8. In 2008, Brazil submitted the first report submitted under the Universal Periodic Review process. [2] The report dealt with women's rights and racial equality, land rights, education, health and work, adequate food, combating poverty and social inequality, the practice of torture and extrajudicial executions, right to public citizen security, memory and truth, sexual orientation and gender identity, the rights of indigenous people and children and adolescents. 9. About the rights of persons with disabilities, the document brought only a few percentage data on the situation of this population in Brazil, references to the First National Conference on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2006), the National Program of Accessibility and the process of ratifying the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities that was, at that time, still on process. This content was insufficient to provide a picture of the invisibility and exclusion faced by people with disabilities in the country. 10. The effective implementation of the rights guaranteed by the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities requires that the Universal Periodic Review process gives greater visibility to the inequalities that still contribute to the lack of participation of persons with disabilities on an equal basis with others, in all aspects of life such as access to education with quality and basic public services, to health care, transportation and adequate housing, ensuring employability and ability to exercise rights. Legislative Measures 11. Through the recent Decree. 7612 of 17 November 2011, the Brazilian government instituted the National Plan of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities – Plano Viver sem Limite (Living Without Limits Plan). In addition to adopting the social model of disability and the concept of people with disabilities provided in the Convention, the plan focuses on measures aimed at ensuring access to education, health care, accessibility and social inclusion. [3] The actions foreseen in the plan tend to indicate a greater realization of the rights of people with disabilities at national level. Gradually the government has been mobilizing in order to adopt effective measures to harmonize the national legislation to the content of this human rights treaty ratified by the State in 2008. 12. On the other hand, there is a concern about the official Portuguese version of the Convention translated by the Brazilian government, which is inaccurate in the translation of the preamble and Article 1, which can lead to misconceptions about who are or may be considered a person with disability under the social model of disability adopted by the treaty. 13. In Article 1, the text of the Portuguese official version in Brazil says "[p]eople with disabilities * are those * who have long-term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments which in interaction with various barriers may hinder their full and effective participation in society on an equal basis with others". In the original English, in turn, included people with disabilities include those who (...)". The use of different expressions makes all the difference in the interpretation of who is the target audience of treaty. The Convention does not propose a definition that limits the persons that is protected by it, just highlights those that that at least should be included. The writing in Portuguese, in this sense, is more restrictive. 14. In the letter 'E' of the Preamble - which is not legally binding, but supports the understanding of the treaty and the new concept of disability in which it is based -, the official Portuguese version in Brazil says, that "Recognizing that disability is an evolving concept and that disability results from the interaction between people with *disabilities* (...) and barriers, using the own concept of disability to describe the concept itself, but the original version says that "disability results from the interaction between people with impairments and the barriers..." establishing a key concept for the disability social approach. 15. Inaccurate translation can result in misunderstandings about the target audience of the international standard, preventing certain groups of people to benefit from the rights guaranteed in the CRPD and take part in the process of discussing, implementing and monitoring the Convention. An example is the persons with psychosocial disabilities, who are not recognized as people with disabilities in Brazil, despite their activism for the implementation of the Convention at the international level. 16. There are only few measures adopted in the legislative framework - which are crucially important as first steps to ensure the realization of the rights contained in the Convention. In this sense, as an example, it is needed to promote discussions and proposals in order to update the definition of persons with disabilities in other national legislations, criminalize discrimination based on disability, including the denial of provision of reasonable adaptation and ensure the recognition of all people with disabilities as citizens before the law. Recommendations: 17. The Brazilian government should make efforts to correct misunderstandings in the translation of the CDPD contained in the preamble and Article 1 in accordance with the original text of the CRPD. 18. Update the legal framework

There were 918 deaths and thousands made homeless in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro State due to several landslides triggered by heavy rainfalls. This area constantly suffers high volumes of rain and episodes of landslides. Due to these experiences, we used the MaCumBa (Massive CUMulative Brisk Analyser) software to identify rainfall intensity–duration thresholds capable of triggering landslides in the most affected municipalities of this region. More than 3000 landslides and rain data from a 10-year long dataset were used to define the thresholds and one year was used to validate the results. In this work, a set of three thresholds capable of defining increasing alert levels (moderate, high and very high) has been defined for each municipality.

This development became a source of change in the constitutions of federal states in order to trace prospects and limits for such process. Brazil is part of the group of states where non-central governments reaching beyond the national borders have occurred without a legal framework specific to the issue. In a federal state known for its centralization like Brazil such discussion can be harsh but its relevance to local and regional development and to the balance of the federative pact turns is necessary.

  • The Impact of Land Inequality on Public Education in Brazil
    THE IMPACT OF LAND INEQUALITY ON PUBLIC EDUCATION IN BRAZIL By Mathias Piccoli Korbes Submitted to Central European University Department of International Relations In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Global Economic Relations Supervisor: Professor Andrew Cartwright Word Count: 14,155 Budapest, Hungary 2019 CEU eTD Collection Abstract For a country to achieve long term economic growth, there is no standard formula. It is widely known that education is one of the main pillars along the developmental path of a country. Based on previous studies, this research shows the impact of land inequality on education and the consequences for further economic growth. The Brazilian government has long neglected education and done everything to avoid redistributing land from a powerful rural elite. As the agricultural sector needs less high skill labor than the industrial sector, the rural elite, through their political and economic power, influence policies benefiting their own group instead of the general population. Though Brazil has gone through a process of industrialization, land inequality still impacts educational achievements in Brazilian municipalities. This research demonstrates that land inequality still negatively impacts public education achievements in Brazil even after the industrialization and decrease of agricultural importance in the economy. Although, higher levels of educational expenditure in the last two decades by the Brazilian government have decreased the impact, it is still present nowadays. CEU eTD Collection ii Acknowledgments First of all, I would like to thank my family for all the support they have given me though the whole Master’s period. I am grateful to my supervisor, Andrew Cartwright, who has provided me the support and guidance on this thesis.

  • UNHCR Operation Fact Sheet in the State of Pará
    Indigenous Warao produce handicrafts at the Pintolândia shelter in Boa Vista. UNHCR Operation Fact Sheet in the State of Pará Since April 1st, 2019 the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) has been present in the State of Pará with the aim to support Municipal and State authorities to strengthen the emergency response for the arrival of Venezuelan refugees and migrants, especially indigenous Warao from Venezuela. Since then, UNHCR has been working closely with local partners, both in Belém and Santarém, in three axes of action: Advocacy, Technical Support on Emergency Response and Capacity Building on refugee protection. It’s estimated the presence of 800 Waraos as asylum seekers in the State of Pará, accommodated in municipal and state shelters as well as in private housing. The total number of Venezuelans in Pará is unknown given the high level of mobility among the group and the geographic dimension and characteristics of the State. In addition, non- indigenous Venezuelans demand less support from public services and tend to live in private housings, which poses a challenge for local authorities to identify their location. As there isn’t a systematic data collection capacity or a state-wide database, the obtention of more accurate data remains challenge. Estimates are based primarily on the number of PoCs residing in shelters managed by various state and municipal actors. Belém is a river city and most refugees and migrants arrive here by boat after reaching Manaus by road. Venezuelans, especially indigenous Waraos, come to the State of Pará for different reasons, some come in search of better living conditions, looking for shelter and work opportunities, and many come to reunite with family members who are already in Pará.

  • Honor Culture in Brazil: Assessing Intra-Cultural Variation
    University of Nevada, Reno Honor Culture in Brazil: Assessing Intra-Cultural Variation A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology by Alvaro Bartolotti Tomas Dr. Markus Kemmelmeier/Thesis Advisor December, 2016 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by Alvaro Bartolotti Tomas entitled Honor Culture in Brazil: Assessing Intra-Cultural Variation be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Markus Kemmemeier, Ph.D. Advisor Johnson W. Makoba, Ph.D. Committee Member Louis C. Forline, Ph.D. Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph. D., Dean, Graduate School December, 2016 i Abstract Sociologists and social psychologists often approach honor as a cultural trait belonging to specific countries and communities. An honor culture is defined as a society in which social status is defined by willingness of individuals to use force to defend one’s reputation (Black, 2011; Cooney, 2014). Studies in the past have compared countries in order to establish which cultures can be considered as belonging to an honor culture (Vandello & Cohen, 2003); yet, they ignored the intra-cultural variability within countries. The purpose of this study was to systematically analyze Brazil, an honor culture, for intra-cultural variability in honor attitudes and values. To do so, we used data from the Latin American Public Opinion Survey and aggregate individual responses regarding honor concerns into regional data to create an Honor Index for the municipalities represented in the survey. Next, we compared the average responses of each municipality to demographic data and material conditions, such as the average education, violence, urbanization and trust in law enforcement of each municipality, thus analyzing variability of the presence of this type of culture across different regions.
