| Guatemala: Killing a Woman of No More Importance than Killing a Fly
Posted by admin on November 28th, 2007
Yet another horrific example of the culture of impunity that allows violence against women to flourish:
According to a report from the Inter Press Service, in the last 7 years there have been nearly 140,000 domestic violence complaints in Guatemala.
“In that period, there have also been 6,025 reported cases of rape and 3,281 women have been murdered, according to official statistics in Guatemala, which has one of the highest homicide rates in Latin America and is the focus of concern from human rights groups because of the large number of women killed in a climate of impunity.”
“Unfortunately, in Guatemala, killing a woman is like killing a fly; no importance is assigned to it,” complained local activist Hilda Morales, who argued that “the perpetrators are encouraged to continue beating, abusing and killing because they know that nothing will happen, that they won’t be punished.”
A report by the Coordinadora 25 de Noviembre, an umbrella group made up of nearly 30 local women’s organisations, said that in the last seven years, only two percent of crimes against women have been solved.
In 2006, judges handed down a total of 12 sentences, one for 60 years and the rest for 50 years. And of the few cases that are actually brought to justice, some take up to three years to make it to court.”
“Although this impoverished Central American country has laws aimed at protecting women from violence and has signed international conventions on the issue, there is a “continuing lack of will to recognise and respect human rights, which translates into silence in the face of a scourge that should be classified as a crime against humanity,” says the study by the Coordinadora 25 de Noviembre.
Morales, an activist with the Network of Non-Violence Against Women, which forms part of the umbrella group, complained that in Guatemala, “domestic violence and sexual harassment, the forerunners of the current wave of murders of women, are not even classified as crimes.”
She pointed out that until last year, a law was on the books that allowed a rapist to escape charges if he married his victim, even if she was only 12 years old.”

* Sólo Tailandia lo supera * El país vive "una situación delicada" por la llegada de turistas exclusivamente para tener relaciones sexuales con niños y adolescentes: ECPAT * 16 mil menores, las víctimas * El tercer negocio más rentable para el crimen organizado * "Hay una ausencia del Estado": Emilio Álvarez Icaza * El Senado incrementa sanciones contra la trata de personas y la pedofilia
El 2 de octubre de 2007, el Senado de la República aprobó por unanimidad un dictamen que sancionará con penas de seis a 12 años de prisión, y de 500 a mil 500 días de salario mínimo de multa a quienes incurran en el delito de trata de personas. Avaló, además, una ley para la protección, atención y asistencia a las víctimas de esta trasgresión del orden social. El ordenamiento, denominado Ley para Prevenir y Sancionar la Trata de Personas, establece sanciones de nueve a 18 años de cárcel, y de 750 a dos mil días de salario mínimo de multa, si el delito es cometido en contra de una persona menor de 18 años, o en contra de una persona que no tenga la capacidad para comprender el significado del hecho o para resistirlo.
La definición de este delito, determina que "la trata de personas se entiende por quien promueva, facilite, consiga, traslade, entregue o reciba para sí mismo o para un tercero, a una persona, por cualquier medio, para someterla a cualquier forma de explotación sexual, trabajos o servicios forzados, esclavitud o prácticas similares a la esclavitud, la servidumbre o la extirpación de órganos, tejidos o componentes."
El texto señala que se perseguirá, investigará o sancionará este tipo de delitos por las autoridades federales "cuando se inicien, preparen o cometan en el extranjero y cuando se produzcan o tengan efecto en el territorio nacional".

| AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL PRESS RELEASE
AI Index: AFR 59/011/2007
30 November 2007
Amnesty International today accused the criminal justice system in northern Uganda of ignoring, denying and tacitly condoning violence against women and girls, while it protects suspected perpetrators.
The accusation came as the organization issued a new report detailing individual cases of sexual abuse against women and girls in northern Uganda.
"The utter lack of justice faced by women and girls who are the victims of sexual violence requires the immediate attention of the Ugandan government and the international community," said Godfrey Odongo, Amnesty International's researcher in Kampala.
"The vast majority of cases of violence against women are not reported to the police because most victims have lost hope in getting any kind of justice."
Amnesty International researchers visited five districts in northern Uganda -- Gulu, Amuru, Kitgum, Pader and Lira -- and spoke to scores of women, girls and their families about the discrimination they suffered while trying to access justice, and the culture of impunity around cases of rape, domestic violence, assault and other forms of violence against women.
"Violence against women is endemic throughout Uganda," said Odongo. "But violence against women in northern Uganda in particular has been exacerbated by the effects of 21 years of brutal conflict between the Lord's Resistance Army and government forces -- and the situation remains grim, despite the recent cessation of hostilities."
Forms of violence against women and girls reported to Amnesty International researchers include rape, child sexual abuse and physical assault -- perpetrated especially in camps for the internally displaced, where most of the population of northern Uganda still live.
"The horrific violence committed during the many years of conflict in northern Uganda continues to aggravate discrimination against women and girls in the area today," said Odongo. "And adding insult to injury, the justice system operating in northern Uganda is grossly inadequate in ensuring the protection of these women and girls -- almost always allowing the perpetrators to walk free."
Victims told Amnesty International that the range of perpetrators include government forces, law enforcement officers, official authorities, local council leaders, spouses and relatives. Police are reluctant to investigate cases involving soldiers, while the Ugandan law does not recognize marital rape as a criminal offence -- mainly due to the presumption that consent to sexual intercourse is given by the act of marriage.
Inadequacy of police services compound the problem. Often, there are no police officers to report cases to, as police stations are few and far between in northern Uganda. Furthermore, police demand money to investigate cases and arrest and transport suspects. Victims are also often asked to pay costs such as providing lunch for police during the investigation, or to feed the suspect while he is detained.
Background information
The conflict in northern Uganda was characterized by sexual and gender-based violence against women and girls by the LRA and government forces. UNICEF estimates that more than 32,000 children were abducted by the LRA between 1986 and 2002 and used as child combatants and sex slaves. Ugandan government forces also committed mass rapes.
The nature and scale of the crimes resulted in the International Criminal Court (ICC) issuing indictments and arrest warrants against senior LRA commanders for crimes against humanity, including sexual enslavement, rape, mutilation and abduction of girls.

| Dear feminist activist,
Take Action Today to restore affordable birth control for college students and low-income women!
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/1 400/t/1714/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=218 91
Please share this urgent action alert with your friends and family.
http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/1 400/t/1714/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=218 91
We must urge Congress to restore affordable birth control before they adjourn in December. Women cannot wait any longer, as birth control prices remain 2, 3, and even 5 times higher at college health centers and clinics serving low-income women across the country.
Prices have soared because of a provision included in the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, passed by the old Republican Congress. Take action today: tell Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Senate and all of Congress to act before they adjourn to restore affordable birth control for students and low income women!
The Prevention Through Affordable Access Act to restore affordable birth control prices for university-based and safety-net clinics (S.2347/H.R.4054), has 123 cosponsors in the House and 22 cosponsors in the Senate. There is an opportunity to include this bill in the Medicare physician payment rate bill before Congress adjourns. Join us and urge Congress to restore affordable birth control for students and low-income women now.
For almost 20 years, pharmaceutical companies provided college health centers and many clinics servicing low income women with birth control at deeply discounted prices. But the Deficit Reduction Act, which went into effect in January 2007, has eliminated these discounts for campus and low-income health centers.
Millions of women across the country are being affected by these devastating hikes in birth control prices.
We need your help and we need it now. Join the Feminist Majority Foundation and thousands of people across the country and take action today!
For Women's Lives,

HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH
UN: New Post to Combat Violence Against Children
Rights Groups Welcome Establishment of New Representative to Secretary-General
(New York, November 27, 2007) - The UN General Assembly's decision today to establish a special representative to the secretary-general on violence against children is a welcome step toward combating this worldwide problem, said a broad coalition of human rights groups and child rights advocates.
The decision to create the new position was made under the General Assembly's annual Resolution on the Rights of the Child, adopted today in the Third Committee by a vote of 176 to 1. The only country voting against the resolution was the United States.
The appointment follows the release last year of the UN Secretary-General's Study on Violence against Children. This study exposed the shocking scope of violence against children worldwide and its devastating effects on children, their families, their communities, and broader society.

| La Deseada Justicia - New Cuban film on domestic violence
Cuba Takes On Domestic Violence
Prensa Latina November 25, 2007
By Circles Robinson
This year the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against
Women falls on a Sunday, but it's not a day off for the victims or those
people who fight against an evil that crosses all borders and ignores social class, race, creed or age.
In Cuba, the day is being observed by many organizations and a recently released documentary titled La Deseada Justicia (The Desired Justice) brings the issue home. Several Cuban civic groups and public institutions are stepping up their efforts to address the problem.
The film, by Cuban director Lizette Vila, artfully intertwines the
testimonies of seven Cuban survivors of domestic violence and is being shown at special functions prior to its screening at the Havana New Latin American Cinema Festival set for December 4-14.
Many of those who have seen the 35-minute documentary have said they hope to see it shown on Cuban TV where it would reach an even wider public. Moving, powerful, sensitive and heart rendering are some of the adjectives used to
describe it. The film is also seen as encouragement for more women to emerge from their cycle of violence.
Coordinated by the Oscar Arnulfo Romero Group for Reflection and Solidarity of Havana, the documentary was made to help break the silence and stimulate
discussion on a thorny issue that in many countries still gets confused as being a private matter rather than a societal or public health concern.
"We know that in our society the violence indicators are not as dramatic as in many others, but it is present and if we can't totally eradicate it we need to at least diminish it as much as possible," states a publication of the Cuban organization.
A week long campaign "for a culture of peace to prevent gender violence"
concludes tomorrow, but the effort to visualize the problem of domestic
violence in Cuba and address it more effectively is only beginning to pick up steam and will continue year round.
"To deny that there is violence in our society means ignoring the issue
instead of confronting it in its entire destructive dimension," notes the
Oscar Romero Group.
"The Cuban revolution, based on deeply humanistic values, can only improve by the active and aware participation of society. Learning to live without violence is a challenge of any civilized society."
International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women was first marked on November 25, 1981.
The date recalls the brutal assassination in 1960, of the three Mirabal sisters, political activists in the Dominican Republic, on orders of Dictator Rafael Trujillo.
On December 17, 1999 the UN General Assembly, officially recognized the date by adopting Resolution 54 134 and invited governments, international
organizations and NGOs to organize activities designated to raise public awareness of the problem.

Dear Friends and Colleagues:
The New York Times (October 7, 2007) recently wrote:
"Eastern Congo is going through another one of its convulsions of
violence, and this time it seems that women are being systematically
attacked on a scale as never seen before. According to the United
Nations
<http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/07/wor ld/africa/07congo.html?_r=2&th&emc=th&or ef=slogin&oref=slogin >
, 27,000 sexual assaults were reported in 2006 in South Kivu Province alone, and that may be just a fraction of the total number across the country."
The sexual violence in Congo is the worst in the world, said John
Holmes, the United Nations under secretary general for humanitarian
affairs. The sheer numbers, the wholesale brutality, the culture of
impunity its appalling.
One in Three is sending out this important alert in conjunction with
Women for Women International <http://www.womenforwomen.org/ >
(WWI) because we believe that WWI has created a way for all of us to
make that change we want to see in the Congo and other places in the
world.
One in Three is responding to WWI's call to action by sponsoring a
woman in need. For $27.00 a month a woman will receive tools and resources that will give her hope and change her life.
To Sponsor a woman: http://www.womenforwomen.org/congowomen/
Please consider giving your support - sponsor a woman.
Please write One in Three in the last line where it asks how you were
referred.
As always...in the Spirit of Friendship and Peace,
Cheyla and Evelyn

what a great website. I'm in dire need of any assistance from your readers. I've been divorced for 10 years and my former husband continues to battle over custody. We have 50/50 custody.After 16 yrs. of marriage, he filed. Before filing, he cut off all finances, credit cards etc so I had NOTHING. Over the years, we both worked and lived very well off. Five children. With all of his "ducks in a row" before filing 2 months after child 5 was born, I was helpless. Insufficient funds, I had no dwelling for my kids so he got residential custody. Now I pay child support to a man who makes $105,000. I can't keep up with the child support payments and he keeps bringing me to court. The last time the court threatened me for jail. I pleaded with a family member for a lump sum and made the payment but because I'm still in arrears, he's now prevented visitation and my kids are a mess. I filed contempt charges on visitation but because he now has prostrate cancer, the court f!
ell for him with sympathy and ordered that I provide transportation to see the kids (a round trip which is 128 miles each weekend). The court order was to share transportation but he hasn't done his share of driving for the last 2 yrs. My request was for him to make up the time and the Judge not only didn't honor my request, he ordered that I CONTINUE THE DRIVING FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS. Footnote: he used to live 7 miles from me but in the interim moved to his new wife's home a 45 minute drive. I left that courtroom stunned. I don't know how to proceed on how to overturn this (unfair!) Judges decision and certainly can't afford an attorney. He's living in luxury and myself in poverty. No alimony granted - I had no funds to hire an attorney at the close of the divorce and NO knowledge of the political arena...Any suggestions, I would be so grateful. And thanks, karen

Rechazo a la violencia de género en multitud de ciudades
Cientos de españoles han salido hoy a las calles para mostrar su rechazo a la violencia y los malos tratos a mujeres en el Día Internacional contra la Violencia de Género.
La actriz Pilar Bardem recordó hoy, Día Internacional para la Eliminación de la Violencia contra las Mujeres, que al menos una de cada tres mujeres de todo el mundo "sufre violencia grave alguna vez en su vida".
Bardem fue a encargada de leer el manifiesto elaborado por Amnistía Internacional España con motivo de la jornada de reivindicación de la violencia de género contra la mujer.
Sevilla
En Sevilla, alrededor de 2.500 personas, según la plataforma '8 de marzo', se concentraron en la Plaza Nueva para protestar contra "una lacra social" que permanece y que "se perpetúa con la misma brutalidad y perseverancia" y reclamar de forma "urgente" que la voluntad política trascienda de las palabras y de las buenas intenciones.
En esta mañana fría, además, se realizó la 'perfomance' 'El amor no es ciego', donde varias personas representaron un consultorio de oftalmología. Se revisó la vista a todas los ciudadanos que se acercaban y se repartieron gafas "que ayudan a ver claro", así como recetas médicas que prescribían 'Relaciones de Buenos Tratos'.
Vigo
Unas 700 personas, según datos de la Policía Local, se manifestaron hoy en el centro de Vigo para pedir "el fin de la violencia machista" y para exigir implicación de la sociedad y de las autoridades para terminar con la "lacra de la violencia de género".
La manifestación partió de la Calle Urzáiz poco después de las 12.00 horas, encabezada por una pancarta de la Marcha Mundial das Mulleres en la que podía leerse 'Podemos acabar con la violencia machista, cada cual desde su responsabilidad'. Los asistentes a este acto lucían brazaletes con este mismo lema, en el caso de las mujeres, y con la frase 'Yo no soy cómplice' en el caso de los hombres.
Entre los participantes estaba la secretaria xeral de Igualdade, Carme Adán, así como representantes de los distintos grupos municipales del Ayuntamiento de Vigo y de organizaciones como la asociación Alecrín, la Rede Veciñal de Mulleres contra os Malos Tratos, la Federación vecinal, y de la Marcha Mundial das Mulleres.
Zaragoza
Otras 700 personas se sumaron hoy a la concentración convocada en la Plaza de España de Zaragoza en contra de la violencia de género coincidiendo con la conmemoración del Día Internacional contra la Violencia de las Mujeres.
Se trató de un acto reivindicativo en que no faltó la lectura de un comunicado, recital de poemas, música e incluso un simulacro de autodefensa de mujeres.
La responsable en el secretariado de la Federación de Asociaciones de Barrios de Zaragoza (FABZ), Nieves Boj Martínez, declaró que acudieron para denunciar sobre la situación de las mujeres que son víctimas y, por otro lado, por solidaridad y recuerdo a las mujeres maltratadas y asesinadas.
Valladolid
Unas 400 personas se manifestaron hoy en Valladolid en el Día Internacional contra este tipo de hechos y actitudes con el fin de pedir el cese de la violencia contra las mujeres.
En la capital vallisoletana se dieron cita unas 400 personas que recorrieron las principales calles de la ciudad bajo el lema 'Ante la violencia, no hay más palabras', convocados por la Coordinadora de Mujeres, para finalmente dar lectura a un manifiesto al que puso voz la periodista de la Cadena Ser Eva Moreno.
Palma de Mallorca
Cerca de 200 personas se concentraron hoy en la Plaza Juan Carlos I de Palma, con motivo del Día Internacional para la eliminación de la violencia contra las mujeres, en un acto en el que se leyeron los nombres de las 69 mujeres que han sido asesinadas en el 2007 en España a manos de sus parejas o ex-compañeros sentimentales.
