Ministra E Ex-Atleta Assume a Chefia Do Comitê De Tóquio-2020 Notícias Postado Em: 18/02/2021 11:00 Secretaria de Políticas para as Mulheres - Estado da Bahia - Ministra e ex-atleta assume a chefia do Comitê de Tóquio-2020 Notícias Postado em: 18/02/2021 11:00 A ministra dos Jogos Olímpicos, Seiko Hashimoto, foi nomeada nesta quinta-feira a presidente do Comitê Organizador de Tóquio-2020, substituindo no cargo Yoshiro Mori, que se demitiu na última sexta após a polêmica criada por suas declarações machistas. "Não vou poupar esforços para o sucesso dos Jogos de Tóquio", garantiu a ex-atleta, de 56 anos, que já apresentou a demissão do cargo no governo japonês ao primeiro-ministro Yoshihide Suga. A nomeação de Hashimoto, que competiu três vezes nos Jogos Olímpicos e quatro nos Jogos de Inverno, é considerada um sinal importante em um país em que as mulheres continuam a ser raras em cargos de poder. Ela era também a responsável no governo pela igualdade de gênero desde setembro de 2019. A história pessoal de Hashimoto tem além disso muitas ligações com os Jogos Olímpicos. Nasceu em Hokkaido, no norte do Japão, cinco dias depois da cerimônia de abertura da Olimpíada de Tóquio em 1964. O seu nome Seiko vem de "seika", que quer dizer "chama olímpica" em japonês. A agora responsável pelo Comitê Organizador de Tóquio-2020 competiu nos Jogos Olímpicos de 1988 (Seul - Coreia do Sul), 1992 (Barcelona - Espanha) e 1996 (Atlanta - Estados Unidos), em ciclismo de pista, e nos Jogos de Inverno em 1984 (Sarajevo - Iugoslávia), 1988 (Calgary - Canadá), 1992 (Albertville - França) e 1994 (Lillehammer - Noruega), como patinadora de velocidade no gelo. Hashimoto ganhou uma medalha de bronze nos Jogos Olímpicos de Inverno, em 1992, em Albertville, nos 1.500 metros de patinagem de velocidade no gelo. A japonesa substitui no cargo Yoshiro Mori, de 83 anos, forçado a se demitir após ter feito comentários sexistas, afirmando que "as mulheres têm dificuldade em ser concisas", durante uma reunião do organismo a que presidia. "As reuniões dos conselhos de administração com a presença de muitas mulheres demoram demasiado tempo. Se for aumentado o número de membros femininos e o tempo de intervenção não for limitado, será mais difícil concluí-las, o que é irritante", sustentou Mori. O ex-dirigente disse ainda que "as mulheres têm espírito competitivo" e "se uma levanta a mão (para poder intervir), as outras sentem-se na obrigação de também falarem", fazendo com que as reuniões demorem muito tempo a serem concluídas. A polêmica gerada pelas declarações de Mori, que o próprio reconheceu "contrárias ao espírito olímpico" em um pedido de desculpas, levou à demissão de centenas de voluntários para os Jogos e causou profundo mal-estar entre os patrocinadores do evento. O Japão ocupa o 121.º lugar no mais recente relatório do Fórum Econômico Mundial sobre a igualdade de gênero, entre 153 países, e o 131.º na proporção de mulheres em lugares de topo em empresas, política e administração pública. http://www.mulheres.ba.gov.br 23/9/2021 21:26:48 - 1.

  • 1 GR JAPAN Update on the Appointment of Prime Minister Suga
    GR JAPAN Update on the appointment of Prime Minister Suga and the Suga Cabinet 17 September 2020 Executive Summary • As expected, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga easily won the election for leadership of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) on 14 September, taking over 70% of the vote. His premiership was cemented by the formal votes in the Diet on 16 September, where Suga received 314 of 465 votes in the House of Representatives and 142 of 245 in the House of Councillors. • After serving as Prime Minister Abe’s right hand as Chief Cabinet Secretary for nearly eight years, Suga is expected to be a “continuity” Prime Minister who will carry forward very similar policies, but he is seen as less of an ideologue and more focused on practical reforms. • The decisiveness of his victory gives Suga a solid platform within the party, helping him to push ahead with his own agenda and limiting internal dissent. • Suga’s Cabinet appointments reflect his commitment to continuity on the whole, with strategic appointments to further his plans for reform. • Policy priorities will focus on domestic issues, primarily economic recovery and Covid-19 pandemic mitigation, but the new Cabinet will also face tough diplomatic challenges. • Suga has indicated that he will continue Abe’s efforts to place a strengthened US- Japan alliance at the centre of Japan’s foreign policy, but also that he wants to achieve “balanced” relations with China. Yoshihide Suga as party leader As the new prime minister, Suga is stressing political continuity, but also talking about his commitment to administrative and regulatory reform as key priorities for his government.

    The Honorable Seiko Hashimoto President Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games The Honorable Yuriko Koike Governor of Tokyo Secretarial Section, General Affairs Division, Office of the Governor for Policy Planning Tokyo Metropolitan Government 8-1 Nishi-Shinjuku 2-chome Shinjuku-Ku, Tokyo 163-8001 Japan Re: Tokyo Olympics and Elephant Ivory Dear Ms. Hashimoto and Governor Koike: Congratulations to Ms. Hashimoto on becoming President of the Tokyo Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee). We commend Governor Koike, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government (TMG), and the Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee team for rising to meet the unprecedented challenges in managing the COVID-19 crisis and the postponement of Tokyo 2020. All eyes will soon be on Tokyo for the highly anticipated Olympic and Paralympic Games. The Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA), Humane Society International (HSI), and Japan Tiger and Elephant Fund (JTEF) have been working to protect elephants for decades. The evidence is clear: ivory trade is incompatible with the conservation of elephants. We are appealing for the Tokyo 2020 Organising Committee to join the TMG and take action to prevent illegal trade and export of elephant ivory products. African elephants have been decimated in an alarming number to supply the market demand for their ivory tusks. The IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) recently listed the African forest elephant as Critically Endangered and raised the threat level

  • 2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations ALBANIA
    2014 Winter Olympic Competing Nations We list below detailed historial Olympic information for every IOC Member Nation that has previously competed at the Olympic Winter Games and that will compete in Sochi, as of 27 January 2014. There appear to be 88 qualified NOCs that have met IF quota requirements as of 24 January, and have accepted them (the previous record for a Winter Olympics is 82 in 2010 at Vancouver). Unfortunately, after reallocation of some quotas, only the skiing federation (FIS) has published the final quotas as of 26 January. We have tried to list below the sports for which each NOC has qualified but there is a small chance, with reallocations, that there may be minor differences in the final allocation by sport. There are seven nations that will compete in Sochi that have never before competed at the Olympic Winter Games – Dominica, Malta, Paraguay, Timor-Leste (East Timor), Togo, Tonga, and Zimbabwe. Their factsheets have been published previously on olympstats.com – see http://olympstats.com/2014/01/23/new-winter-olympic-nations-for-sochi/, which came out on 23 January. One problem nation is listed below and that is DPR Korea (North). They have not qualified any athletes for Sochi. They had the 1st and 2nd reserves for pairs figure skating but those do not appear to have been chosen by final reallocation of quota sports by the International Skating Union (ISU). However, yesterday (26 January), DPR Korea has petitioned the IOC for redress to allow them to have Olympic athletes compete in Sochi. So they are included below but it is unknown if they will compete.

First of all in the name of all the people in attendance I would like to express warm gratitude and sympathy to Mrs. Morana Palikovic-Gruden, President of the Croatian Skating Federation, who is living a very sad moment; we thank her for hosting the major ISU meeting here in beautiful Dubrovnik. It is a pleasure to be in such a relaxing place, with many sea-views, though the Agenda in front of us is very demanding; I am confident that the atmosphere around us will help all of us go through it in a very constructive way. At the very beginning of my speech I feel committed to honor in your name the memory of great friends of the ISU, who are no longer with us. First of all allow me to say few words on David Dore, the 1st Vice President Figure Skating, who recently passed away, after many years of restless dedication to our sports that involved him even in the last days of his illness.
