Sex ratio in J&K disturbing
Staff Reporter
Situation worst in Kathua district 'Figures in some pockets are simply alarming'
No positive response from people
JAMMU: Experts at a two-day workshop organised by the Post Graduate Department of Community Medicine (P&SM) under the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) at the Government Medical College here expressed concern over the disturbing sex ratio in some parts of the State.
Data compiled by the Directorate of Economics and Statistics of the
State government shows that the population of female child is fast
deteriorating. In Kathua district, the latest ratio is 796 girls to
1,000 boys in the urban side and 847 females to 1,000 boys in the rural part.
The trend in Jammu district, which includes Jammu city, is no
different. It is 820 girls to 1,000 boys in Jammu district (urban-rural combine). Udhampur with 873 girls, Rajouri with 901, Poonch with 906, Kupwara with 953, Budgam with 931, Baramulla with 927 and Leh with 934 girls present a grim scenario.
Dr. Sabu George, one of the participants in the meet, said: "The
latest figures in some pockets of the State are simply alarming, and a
cause of concern for the progressive society of the State as well the whole country."
He traced the origin of the malice to the machines used for sex determination.
Dr. Yogeshwar, nodal officer, National Rural Health Mission, J&K,
however, rued the lack of people's support for the cause. "Though we
did start a helpline and issued advertisements in both electronic and print media, seeking the support of people to register complaints against the offenders, no positive response has been received so far," he said.
In the late 90s, just few 100 ultra-sound machines were sold across
the country but now around 5,000 such machines are sold every year.
Experts also exploded the myth that that the incidence of female-foeticide and abortion of female foetuses after pre-natal sex
determination occurred mainly in the rural areas and among the
illiterate population.
Preference for boy
The phenomenon is evenly spread in all sections of society irrespective of caste, colour, region and religion. Shockingly, the preference for a boy is stronger and deep entrenched in the elite, educated, prosperous and urban sections. Hence, the incidents are more frequent in these sections, the experts said, quoting various studies.
Dr. Rakesh Behl detailed the J&K Preconception and Pre-Natal
Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act, 2002. The
Act was still in its infancy and so far only two cases were registered
against two unregistered clinics.

COP'S 3RD WIFE RULED 'HOMICIDE'
AP
February 23, 2008 -- CHICAGO - Amid the search for former police officer Drew Peterson's fourth wife, an autopsy on the exhumed body of the man's third wife found what her relatives have long suspected - her death was no accident.
Kathleen Savio died by drowning and her death was ruled a homicide, Dr. Larry Blum said in an autopsy report released Thursday by the state's attorney's office. It was the second autopsy performed on Savio.
She was found dead in her bathtub in March 2004, shortly before her divorce with Peterson was finalized. Four years ago, a coroner's jury ruled her death was an accident.
Savio's body was exhumed late last year after Peterson was named a person of interest in the disappearance of his fourth wife, Stacy. He has said Stacy Peterson ran off with another man, but her relatives deny any affair and say she would not have willingly left her two young children.
Blum's report largely echoes the work of nationally known pathologist Dr. Michael Baden, who performed a third, unofficial autopsy at the request of Savio's family. Baden concluded that Savio died after a struggle, and her body was placed in the bathtub.
Peterson, 54, who was a sergeant in the Bolingbrook, Ill., police department, has denied any involvement in either case and has not been charged with wrongdoing.

| California Judicial Council Report: Domestic Violence
No guns for targets of restraining orders
_Bob Egelko, Chronicle Staff Writer_
Friday, February 22, 2008
State judicial leaders approved plans Friday to get guns out of the hands of spousal batterers, a task that now is largely left up to the batterers themselves. Under proposals endorsed by the state Judicial Council, judges and police would enforce a provision contained in every domestic violence restraining order that prohibits the target of the order from possessing firearms or ammunition. Judges issue the restraining orders to require the abusers to stay away
from their victims.
For complete Judicial Council report, go to:
www.courtinfo.ca.gov/jc/documents/reports/022208item9.pdf
or click on active link above text.
The measures were among numerous recommendations in a report by a task force appointed by Ronald George, chief justice of the state Supreme Court and
chairman of the Judicial Council, to improve the courts' handling of domestic violence cases. Other proposals included making the state's restraining order records available to all judges, requiring family law judges to take courses in
domestic violence, and curbing court practices that may endanger victims.
"I think lives will be saved," Laurence Kay, a retired appeals court justice in San Francisco and chairman of the task force, said after the council approved the report on a voice vote. He said at least 151 Californians were killed
by a spouse, former spouse or intimate partner in 2005, the most recent year for which figures are available, and 622,000 women a year in the state suffer violence at the hands of a partner.
The 28-member Judicial Council, appointed by the chief justice, the State Bar and the Legislature, is the policymaking body for the California courts. It can adopt some of the recommendations in Friday's report on its own, but others require legislative action.
George appointed Kay's panel in September 2005 after an earlier task force, named by then-Attorney General Bill Lockyer, found that victims of domestic violence were left unprotected by a system that failed to enforce restraining
orders or disarm batterers.
The latest report found a continuing gap in enforcing the law that prohibits anyone who has been subjected to a domestic violence restraining order from owning a gun. The law requires the defendant to turn over any guns to police
or sell them to a licensed dealer within 24 hours of being ordered to do so by a judge, but contains no measures to ensure compliance.
The task force said the judge should arrange a search of computerized records to see whether the defendant owns a gun and note any weapons when issuing the order. If the records, or information from the victim, reveal gun ownership, the judge could hold a hearing and notify police if the defendant fails to produce a document showing that the weapon has been relinquished.
The Judicial Council also recommended procedures to enforce laws banning gun
ownership by those convicted of domestic violence crimes.
At present, "there is no uniform procedure for a judge to systematically inquire whether there is a gun and what's happened to that gun," said Michael Runner, legal director of the Family Violence Prevention Fund in San Francisco.
"This is a problem nationwide. I think California's taking the lead."
The Judicial Council also recommended:
-- Requiring the state attorney general's office to let judges see its
statewide law enforcement database of restraining orders. State law requires that
each order be entered in the database within a day, but they are available to judges in only a few counties.
-- Requiring all new judges, and all judges transferring to family law
departments, to take courses in domestic violence.
-- Ordering judges to consider possible dangers to the victim before notifying an alleged abuser of a restraining order. The task force said some judges notify the defendant in every case, despite evidence that the risk of abuse
may increase when a victim has left the abuser and filed for court protection.
Police can enforce restraining orders against defendants who had no previous knowledge of them, but defendants can be jailed for violations only after formal notice.
Kay said some of the proposals would require increased court staffing and other expenses, and some would also require changes in state law. The Judicial
Council will establish a new task force to assess those needs and report in June 2009.

Negligencia y falta de rigor científico: antropóloga forense
Feminicidio en Chihuahua: autoridades “sepultaron” evidencia
Primera de dos partes
Por Lourdes Godínez Leal
México DF, 18 feb 08 (CIMAC).- Con negligencia, falta de profesionalismo y absoluta carencia de rigor científico, las autoridades judiciales de Chihuahua practicaron sus “indagatorias” en decenas de restos de mujeres víctimas del feminicidio en la entidad, que suman ya 376 mujeres asesinadas o desaparecidas.
Eso se sabe desde julio de 2005, cuando el Equipo Argentino de Antropología Forense (EAAF), contratado en Chihuahua para realizar un diagnóstico a partir de 20 expedientes de caso, confirmó las deficiencias e irregularidades en las investigaciones del feminicidio, como ya suponían y habían denunciado familiares de las mujeres asesinadas y organizaciones no gubernamentales.
Pero lo más grave, dijeron las antropólogas, fue que hubo un diagnóstico inapropiado acerca de la causa y modo de muerte, así como de signos de violencia sexual. No se determinaba si se habían practicado o no los análisis correspondientes, ya que en ningún caso quedó claro el tema, ni existían exámenes bucodentarios, toma de huellas dactilares o análisis de ADN (Cimacnoticias 11 jul 05).
Las madres de las mujeres asesinadas y desaparecidas desde 1993 perdieron la credibilidad en las instancias de procuración de justicia de Chihuahua. Esa fue la razón por la cual, constituidas en la ONG Justicia para Nuestras Hijas, solicitaron la intervención de peritos independientes que dieran “certeza” sobre los restos. Así lo recomendaron también organismos internacionales de derechos humanos, señaló en entrevista telefónica con Cimacnoticias Alma Gómez Caballero, de dicha ONG.

Integrarían red de pornografía infantil con vínculo en España
Denuncian estructura de protección para pederastas de Oaxaca
Por Susana Trejo de Jesús
México DF, 22 feb 08 (CIMAC).- Existe una gran estructura de protección y seguridad en Oaxaca para los prófugos de la justicia Adán Pérez Ramírez y Hugo Constantino García, presuntos integrantes de una red de pornografía infantil que operaba en los institutos San Felipe y Miguel de Cervantes de la entidad y que tendría vínculos en España, denunciaron la periodista San Juana Martínez, José Bonilla, abogado de una de las víctimas, y la diputada perredista Claudia Cruz.
Esta aseveración, señalaron en conferencia de prensa realizada hoy, surgió por las similitudes que existen entre las denuncias de abuso sexual cometido por autoridades del Instituto Miguel de Cervantes, ubicado en la población de Villa de Etla, y en el Instituto San Felipe, en la ciudad de Oaxaca, pues el modo de operar era el mismo: narcotizaban a los niños, los ataban de pies y manos y eran abusados sexualmente, mientras eran filmados.

| Natasha Hall Murder
Police Told Her to Stop Calling
The mother of a 17-year-old girl who was killed in an apparent murder-suicide allegedly committed by her ex-boyfriend said police told the teen to stop calling them for help or she would be arrested, local6.com reported.
"The police officer said if you call us one more time on him, I'm going to arrest you both, Sherry Hall told the Web site about the Jan. 15 conversation her daughter had with police. "So, the day she died, she knew she couldn't talk to police. So, she handled it herself."
Natasha Hall was allegedly shot by Daniel "Clay" Coffner, 19, outside her DeLand, Fla. home Feb. 15, before killing himself, police said.
DeLand police have not responded to Sherry Hall's allegations, the Web site reported.
**************
The DeLand police chief, the individual responding officers, and the police department and city of DeLand, Fl need to be investigated for their responsibility in contributing to the murder of Natasha Hall. And they need to be held accountable if these allegations are true.

911 Calls Made Before DeLand Teen’s Murder
Last Edited: Tuesday, 19 Feb 2008, 5:44 AM EST
Created: Monday, 18 Feb 2008, 5:25 PM EST
DELAND, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35, Orlando) -- FOX 35 has obtained paperwork that shows the family of a DeLand teen who was murdered by her former boyfriend called police nine times since November.
On Friday police say 17-year-old Natasha Hall, a student at DeLand High School, was shot on her front porch by her former boyfriend Clay Kufner, 19, who then killed himself.
According to paperwork Natasha’s family called police nine times since November.
Two police reports were filed and according to one call back in December, Natasha’s mom refused to press charges against Kufner, but told a detective she had contacted the Deland police department in reference to legal advice.
Here's how the events break down according to the police paperwork.
In July 2007, Natasha’s mom called police on clay claiming he was stalking her daughter.
In November, her mom called again saying clay was threatening to bang their door in and was threatening her.
In December Natasha’s mom called police saying clay beat up her daughter because he was mad about an email she'd written.
At this time the mom and Natasha refused to press charges.
Two weeks later Natasha’s mom called 911 saying clay made harassing phone calls to their home and that he took Natasha to a McDonald’s where she says he threw ice cream in her face, then chased her into a grocery store and forcefully carried her out. This time a police report was filed.
On January 12th this year cops responded to Natasha’s home after she and her mom got in a fight. Her mom claims Natasha was sneaking out to see clay.
A week later Natasha’s mom called police saying clay punched Natasha in the face and split her lip.
And another call a few days later from Natasha who said clay was upset banging on the doors and windows of her home.
She says he was mad because she was at a party with boys, and he was jealous.
So, what do Deland police have to say about all of this?
“To say that we've been called to assist this family several times, absolutely, we have since November of last year. To say that the police dept has done nothing to help this family, I think is a misnomer,” said Deputy Chief Randel Henderson.
Deputy chief Henderson says he has yet to hear from Natasha’s parents if they really are concerned about how their calls were handled. He said if they have a problem they should come here and sort it out.

Family: Police Didn't Protect Murder-Suicide Victim
POSTED: 5:26 pm EST February 18, 2008
UPDATED: 6:17 pm EST February 18, 2008
DELAND, Fla. -- Records released Monday showed that DeLand police received many calls about a teenager behind a murder-suicide that took place Friday night.
Police found the bodies of 19-year-old Daniel Kufner and his former girlfriend, 17-year-old Natasha Hall, on the front porch of her home. They also found a pistol near the bodies.
Hall's family remembered their daughter Monday, and claimed that police did not take action to protect her.
With difficulty, Michael Cummings remembered his stepdaughter's dreams and aspirations.
He said she was a gifted writer and that she was very interested in journalism.
According to DeLand police department records, officers were called out to the Hall home at least nine times since July 2007. Each incident involved Kufner.
Records show that Kufner was charged with battery twice, cases that were pending in court. The Hall family also accused Kufner of stalking, threatening to burn down their house, and making harassing phone calls.
Cummings said he felt police didn't take strong enough action in the episodes involving Kufner.
However, Randall Henderson, deputy chief of the DeLand Police Department said he could only address the law in a manner he was allowed.
"Although we may know something is occurring, and people have told us it's occurring, it does not fit the definition of any law, and there's no protocol for us to actually address it," Henderson said.
Hall's family admits they could have filed for a restraining order to keep Kufner away, but that he appeared to be getting his life in order and they did not want to ruin the life of someone once special to their daughter.
Hall was a junior at DeLand High School. There were no classes Monday because of the President's Day holiday, but crisis team counselors are scheduled to be on campus Tuesday to help students and faculty members cope with Hall's death.

Women and War
The seminar starts on Tuesday March 25 at 5 pm and will reconvene on the fourth Tuesday of every month until June. It will continue in the next academic year. We are also preparing a conference in January 2009 in Paris to be run in conjunction with SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London).
Recent research on new forms of warfare has revealed the radical
changes in the conceptualizing and experiencing of conflict and
warfare. Today distinctions and boundaries between the military and civilians, fighters and victims are blurred. The question of gender
has gained complexity as traditional male and female roles are being
challenged
This monthly seminar at the Sorbonne in Paris seeks to map out the role of women as active protagonists in conflict situations, be it as victims, warriors, civilian or military employees of a country at war, resistors and survivors both on the front line and the home front.
Strategies of everyday survival under extreme conditions, from sieges to refugee camps, civil reconstruction, post-war justice and the writing of official history are domains to explore, whilst considering warfare in the past or the present day. Such a focus elaborates what Bourdieu called "the modest side of history…history reflected, the
public sphere perceived from the private, domestic domain".
We will explore the nature of male/female relationships during
conflicts, the reconfiguration of families, the gendered forms of
violence, representations and constructions of gender norms during war situations with consequences on childhood and old age. The role of women during international wars, civil, nationalist, religious and ethnic strife will equally be explored, as will ensuing health and social issues. The role of the media and cultural expression of every form (from war photography, films to memorials and public monuments)
is also included.
These questions will be approached via multiple
disciplines including sociology, anthropology, political sciences,
history, and encompass different periods of history, including the two
world wars.
The seminar starts on Tuesday March 25 at 5 pm and will reconvene on the fourth Tuesday of every month until June. It will continue in the next academic year. We are also preparing a conference in January 2009 in Paris to be run in conjunction with SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London).
Researchers in all these fields are encouraged to submit their
proposals, 300 words to Jane Freedman.
L.Freedman@soton.ac.uk
et Carol Mann (cmann@femaid.org)
We are also seeking to create a network of universities, protest
groups and grass-roots women's organizations especially in conflict zones
This seminar has been organized by the Femmes et Conflits/WomeninWar
research association founded in Paris in February 2008. (the site
will be up soon!)

Muchas mujeres viven el amor como un mandato Y otras mueren a manos de sus parejas
Por Soledad Jarquín Edgar/corresponsal
Oaxaca, Oax, 14 feb 08 (CIMAC).- Hay amores que matan. En Oaxaca, en los últimos tres años, fueron asesinadas de manera dolosa 113 mujeres y en los últimos 20 años otras 803 mujeres fueron contagiadas por el VIH/SIDA, según cifras oficiales.
Estos “amores que matan”, tendrían fundamento en la forma en que las mujeres fueron concebidas para amar “para las mujeres más que para los hombres, el amor es definitorio de su identidad de género. Para las mujeres, el amor no es sólo una experiencia posible, es la experiencia que nos define”, sostiene la antropóloga y feminista Marcela Lagarde y de los Ríos.

Native Women’s Association of Canada disappointed with Pickton verdict
In this 9th December 2007 press release, the Native Women’s Association of Canada comments the verdict issued after an important trial concerning a serial killer of native women. NWAC contributes to open the difficult debate about specific discriminations towards native Canadians, and more specifically native women, who are targetted and harrassed in sexist and racist ways.
Ottawa, ON (December 9, 2007) – The Native Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC) is disappointed with the jurors’ verdict in the case of Robert William Pickton, who was found guilty on six counts of second-degree murder in the murders of six women. NWAC was recently advised that all of the victims were Aboriginal or of Aboriginal descent.
NWAC was hoping for a first degree conviction, which would have been a more definitive finding that the serial killer intentionally and deliberately planned to murder these women. Unfortunately, a second degree verdict leaves an impression that the accused is less accountable for his actions. President of NWAC, Beverley Jacobs said, “The verdict of second-degree murder will have ramifications on the trial set for the next twenty victims that Pickton is charged with murdering and I fear it will add more undue stress on the families of the victims.”
Ms. Jacobs said, “We are grateful the jurors found Pickton guilty and are especially relieved that he did not receive an acquittal. For these first six families, this is the end of an ugly chapter in their lives which I hope will assist them on the long road to recovery. I send my prayers and condolences for those families whom have had to continue to grieve and that I hope today marks the first sign of closure for these families.”
NWAC offers its wholehearted support for the families of the victims. The Sisters in Spirit initiative continues to work at increasing the understanding at a national level of the impact of violence against Aboriginal women in Canada, often leading to their disappearance or murder. It is the hope that the high-profile nature of this case will bring about a greater awareness of this epidemic that is plaguing Canada from coast to coast to coast as there are many others like Pickton targeting Aboriginal women.
The NWAC is an aggregate of 13 Native women’s organizations and is the national voice of Aboriginal women in Canada.

LA PREVENCIÓN, NO LA ABSTENCIÓN, ES LA CLAVE PARA MENOS ABORTOS
La prevención debe estar equilibrada con la inclusión de una extensa educación sexual
Hay buenas noticias en el tema del aborto. El Instituto Guttmacher informó recientemente que entre el 2000 y el 2005, ha habido una disminución en el número de abortos realizados en los Estados Unidos de 1.3 a 1.2 millones, la menor cifra desde 1974. Desde luego, 1.2 millones de abortos continúa siendo un número grande y nuestro trabajo para reducir el número de abortos realizados en este país está lejos de haber terminado.
La gran pregunta permanece: ¿Cómo continuamos reduciendo el número de abortos en Estados Unidos? Los defensores de la educación en la abstinencia alegan que lo que está detrás de la disminución total del número de abortos es este proceso educativo en las escuelas estadounidenses.
Una disminución en los embarazos adolescentes recientemente reportada no es el resultado de la educación en sólo abstinencia, más bien es algo secundario ante el uso cada vez más efectivo de la anticoncepción. Mientras que el porcentaje de alumnos en escuelas superiores que tienen relaciones sexuales ha disminuido en un 7.3% desde 1991, el uso de los condones ha aumentado en un 16.6%.
Si bien el enseñar a nuestros jóvenes las ventajas de la abstinencia es apropiado y deseable, esto tiene que ser equilibrado con la inclusión de una extensa educación sexual junto con formas de prevenir el embarazo si la actividad sexual ocurre.

| TERMINEMOS LA GUERRA EN CONTRA DE LAS MUJERES
por Peggy Flanagan
Tres millones de mujeres y niñas son asesinadas cada año
Un informe de las Naciones Unidas estima que, tres millones de mujeres y niñas son asesinadas en promedio cada año a nivel mundial; y al menos 113 millones de mujeres están “desaparecidas”. Esto es generocidio.
En Brasil, como en muchos otros países, escuchamos de los llamados asesinatos por “honor”, en donde mujeres y niñas son asesinadas por sus parientes porque supuestamente han deshonrado a su familia. ¿Qué podría tener de honorable el asesinar a mujeres indefensas; en especial a mujeres a quienes el hombre ha prometido amar y proteger, en las buenas y en las malas?
En Canadá, los asesinatos domésticos son en ocasiones asesinatos por “honor” con otro nombre, como “crimen pasional”. Los así llamados asesinatos de “honor” van en contra de cualquier religión y cultura, pero ¿qué tan frecuentemente escuchamos a los líderes de cualquier tendencia política o de cualquier religión hablar sobre la violencia contra las mujeres y condenarla?
En algunas partes del mundo, las mujeres no pueden poseer propiedades. En muchas partes del mundo, ellas son una propiedad. En algunos lugares, ellas no pueden votar o ser votadas. En muchos lugares, no pueden ser vistas solas en la calle. En la mayoría de lugares, no están educadas. En demasiados lugares, son escondidas de la vista, claramente casadas con el hogar en vez de con el hombre, mantenidas en silencio y en servidumbre doméstica.
Las mujeres y niños continúan siendo las víctimas mudas, invisibles e incontables de la guerra. En más lugares de los que nos gustaría pensar, sus cuerpos se han convertido en instrumentos para la guerra. En más lugares de los que desearíamos admitir, están siendo golpeadas frecuentemente en sus propios hogares, están siendo vendidas como esclavas sexuales o quedando financieramente destituidas después de la viudez o el divorcio.

Let's end the war against women
Posted By Peggy Flanagan
A United Nations report estimates that, on average world- wide, three million women and girls are murdered every year, and at least 113 million women are "missing." This is gendercide.
In Brazil, and in many other countries, we hear of so-called "honour" killings, in which women and girls are killed by relatives because they have supposedly dishonoured their family. What can possibly be honourable about killing a defenceless woman, especially a woman whom a man has promised to love and protect, for better or for worse?
In Canada, domestic murders are sometimes honour killings by another name, such as a "crime of passion."
So-called honour killings are contrary to every religion and culture, but how often do we hear the leaders of any political stripe or of any religion speak out and condemn violence against women?
The silence is deafening.
In some parts of the world, females can't own property. In many parts of the world, they are property. In some places, they can't vote or be voted for. In many places, they can't be seen on the streets alone.
In most places, they aren't educated. In too many places, they are tucked away out of sight, clearly wedded to the house rather than the man, kept in silence and domestic servitude.
Women and children are still the muted, uncounted and unseen victims of war. In more places than we like to think, their bodies have become the instruments of war. In more places than we are willing to admit, they are being beaten regularly in their own homes, sold into sexual slavery and left financially destitute after widowhood or divorce.
But not in Canada, eh?
Those who think women are free from violence in Canada have very poor memories, or perhaps have skipped over news reports concerning this issue in our daily newspapers.
Statistics Canada reports that more than 60 women are killed in Canada each year by their partners. In Ontario, police report that, on average, 28 women are killed by their partners each year.
Advertisement
Let us not forget that every year in Canada, up to 360,000 children are exposed to domestic violence, resulting in psychological and behavioural problems that can extend into adolescence and adulthood. They live in a domestic war zone.
Yes, it is true that men also are victims of violence, but most serious violence against men is perpetrated by other men, not by women. Of the almost 34,000 victims of spousal violence reported in the year 2000, women accounted for 85 per cent of the victims. The Domestic Violence Death Review Committee reported in 2004 that women were the main victims in all cases, and 91 per cent of the perpetrators were men.
Kingston has its own share of victims of relationship violence.
This past November, in City Hall's Memorial Hall, two male police officers facilitated a day entitled "Relationship Terrorism" to a packed audience. Both men were experienced in dealing with domestic violence, and they made those of us attending realize that we are all affected by such violence and we all must help implement changes in the attitudes that allow this abuse to continue.
What does all this mean?
I think it means that the solution to this problem must involve more men. Most men do treat women as equals, and more men, especially in law enforcement and in some religious circles, are getting involved in confronting other men who do not. Still, we have a worldwide war against women that is largely being ignored, and this must not be allowed to continue. The diminished condition of women in both church and state everywhere around the world is proof that much more must be done.
An outspoken act on the part of any respected man on behalf of women is a sign of hope to us all. If the full human development of both men and women is ever to finally succeed, the movement will need the leadership of men of conscience, as well as women of courage.
In 1998, the Sisters of Providence of St. Vincent de Paul, a religious congregation founded 145 years ago in Kingston, committed its members to take concrete actions to eradicate violence, especially against women, in collaboration with both men and women, by raising awareness of violence and its underlying causes. We made a 10-year commitment to host a series of biannual conferences focused on healing violence against women.
We plan to culminate the work we have done over the past eight years by offering a two-day conference on March 4-5, during International Women's Week. This conference will commence with an inspirational address by Sally Armstrong, an Amnesty International award winner, a member of the Order of Canada, a documentary filmmaker, a teacher, an author and a human rights activist.
Her keynote address will be followed by workshops addressing specific areas of gender violence and outlining positive steps being made toward prevention, eradication and healing.
It is designed to call us all - women and men - out of the shadows of powerlessness and denial into the light and power of love in action.

Dear colleagues,
Unfortunately, many people have been provided with systematic
disinformation about the revised TVPA. We have put together a fact
sheet which has been vetted by legal experts. I hope this is useful
in explaining some of the details of the reauthorized Trafficking
Victims Protection Act, HR 3887, overwhelmingly passed in the House, and now waiting approval in the Senate. Please circulate this
document to the many people in your network that are concerned about this issue.
Thanks for your support for this important bill protecting the human
rights of trafficking victims,
Melissa Farley, Ph.D., Director
Prostitution Research & Education

SUPPORT HR 3887 AS CURRENTLY DRAFTED
The William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2007
Enhancing the federal fight against trafficking in persons, a modern form of slavery
HR 3887 PASSED THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WITH ONLY 2 DISSENTS
MAJOR PROVISIONS:
INTRODUCES A COHESIVE LEGAL FRAMEWORK FOR FIGHTING TRAFFICKING: combines efforts against international and domestic sale of human beings.
REMOVES THE NEED TO PROVE TRAVEL, WHILE KEEPING VIOLATIONS IN COMMERCE: constitutionally targets the demand for international trafficking by directly addressing the network that buys and sells women and children for commercial sexual exploitation
REMOVES A BARRIER TO EFFECTIVE PROSECUTIONS AGAINST TRAFFICKERS: makes “force, fraud, and coercion” part of aggravated trafficking rather than a requirement for all convictions.
MAKES EXPORTING SEXUAL EXPLOITERS TO OTHER COUNTRIES (“SEX-TOURISM”) AS SIGNIFICANT A CRIME AS IMPORTING VICTIMS FOR SEXUAL EXPLOITATION.
INCREASES PENALTIES FOR TRAFFICKING.
STRENGTHENS THE STATE DEPARTMENT’S ABILITY TO PRESS FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS TO COMBAT HUMAN TRAFFICKERS IN THEIR COUNTRIES.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO CHANGE THE ‘FORCE FRAUD AND COERCION’ REQUIREMENT?
Because anti-trafficking laws should focus on the actions of people and businesses that prostitute others, not on the resistance level of victims.
Because prostituted women and children often appear to be in the industry by choice when they are anything but free.
Because lies about victim “willingness” to engage in prostitution are now being used by pimps and traffickers to avoid accountability for modern day slavery and the sexual exploitation of the world’s most vulnerable and harmed people, prominently women and children, including boys.
In Chicago alone, 16,000-25,000 women are involved in prostitution every year. Statewide, an estimated 6,500 youth are prostituted annually. Of women in prostitution:
62% were first pimped out before they were 18.
75% are survivors of sexual assault—most of multiple rapes.
66% are victims of incest.
50% are homeless.

Mom: Police Told Daughter To Stop Calling Before Murder-Suicide
'The Day She Died, She Knew She Couldn't Talk To Police,' Mom Says
Orlando News
POSTED: 7:38 am EST February 18, 2008
UPDATED: 8:49 am EST February 19, 2008
DELAND, Fla. -- A Central Florida woman whose 17-year-old daughter was killed in a murder-suicide apparently committed by her ex-boyfriend said the teen was told by police to stop calling for help or she'd be arrested.
Police said Clay Coffner shot his estranged girlfriend, Natasha Hall, in the head outside her DeLand home Friday before turning the gun on himself.
Hall's mother, Sherry, said her daughter was concerned about Coffner and informed police.
In fact, Hall said her daughter called police so much that on Jan. 15 they threatened her.
"The police officer said if you call us one more time on him, I'm going to arrest you both," Sherry Hall said. "So, the day she died, she knew she couldn't talk to police. So, she handled it herself."
Michele Karpowicz said everyone noticed the warning signs before the homicide -- except police.
"I was going crazy," Hall's best friend said. "He was psycho, jealous and abusive."
Local 6 is trying to obtain a police call log to determine how many times the teen called police.
DeLand police officials have not responded to the allegations.

ONG mexicana pide amparo a la ONU ante la falta de justicia contra los asesinatos y abusos de mujeres y niñas
MADRID, 18 (ATB NOTICIAS)
El Consejo de Mujeres Defensoras de los Derechos Humanos y la Familia envió una carta a la Alta Comisionada de Naciones Unidas, Louise Arbour, para demandar su apoyo en la resolución de muertes y abusos contra las mujeres y niñas mexicanas ante la falta de justicia en el país, según publicó la agencia 'ABN'.
Emerencia López, presidenta de la organización no gubernamental, expresó que "durante estos años le ha tocado al sector femenino lidiar con administraciones reticentes al cambio y a ofrecer justicia por los asesinatos de unas 200 mujeres en sólo dos años".
También sostuvo que no existe un esfuerzo real por parte de las autoridades para castigar y sancionar a quienes abusan de niñas y asesinan a decenas de mujeres en la zona fronteriza de Ciudad Juárez.
La defensora local de los derechos humanos apeló al apoyo legal mediante instrumentos y documentos internacionales que amparen a los mexicanos ante la falta de aplicación de justicia en el país.

Alerta CLADEM-PERU Y DEMUS sobre Feminicidio. EL MACHISMO ESTATAL TA
El machismo mata
Cada mes, 9 mujeres son asesinadas por esta causa
Las muertes de Katherine Sihuas1, Doris Pereda Farfan2, Mar¦ía Isabel
Guerrero Rojas3, e Irma Garate4 ocurridas en el mes de enero del año en curso, develan el incumplimiento por parte del Estado Peruano de sus
obligaciones jurídicas y políticas para prevenir, investigar y sancionar la violencia hacia la mujer, principio de debida diligencia consagrado conforme en la Convención Belem do Pará5 y en la Recomendación N 19 de la Convención para eliminar toda forma de discriminaci¦ón contra la mujer6.
A pesar de la gravedad de la situaci€ ¦ón, mediante la adopci¦ón de medidas tales como el ³Plan de Reforma de Programas Sociales7 y la creación de la Direcci€ ¦ón General de Protecci€ ¦ón Social del MIMDES8, la PCM est€ ¦á
transfiriendo los Centros de Emergencia Mujer, servicios de atenci€ ¦ón para las mujeres en casos de violencia familiar y sexual, a las Municipalidades provinciales, sin enfoque de derechos, g€ ¦énero, ni garant€ ¦ías de
sostenibilidad, calidad y cobertura; ha extinguido el Programa Nacional
contra la Violencia Familiar y Sexual. Adem€ ¦ás, el gobierno no ha aprobado el Plan Nacional contra la Violencia hacia la Mujer 2008-2012.
El Poder Judicial, el Ministerio P€ ¦úblico y la Polic€ ¦ía Nacional tambi€ ¦én incumplen con el principio de debida diligencia cuando no otorgan medidas de
protecci€ ¦ón y no sancionan a los criminales. En un estudio realizado por DEMUS9, sobre procesos judiciales relacionados con el feminicidio; la cuarta
parte de las mujeres asesinadas por sus parejas o ex parejas, denunci€ ¦ó por violencia familiar ante la Polic€ ¦ía Nacional del Per€ ¦ú, llegando en uno de los
casos a solicitar garant€ ¦ías personales hasta en 4 oportunidades, sin obtener
la protecci€ ¦ón requerida.
De otro lado, el Estado no cumple con la obligaci€ ¦ón de garantizar la
investigaci€ ¦ón y recopilaci€ ¦ón de estad€ ¦ísticas y dem€ ¦ás informaci€ ¦ón pertinente
sobre las causas, consecuencias y frecuencia de la violencia contra la
mujer, con el fin de evaluar la eficacia para prevenir, sancionar y
erradicar la misma, as€ ¦í como buscar y aplicar las f€ ¦órmulas y cambios que sean necesarios.
El panorama se vuelve mas sombr€ ¦ío cuando comprobamos que ni el Ministerio P€ ¦úblico, ni el Poder Judicial, cuentan con datos y estad€ ¦ísticas que den cuenta de la verdadera magnitud del feminicidio en el Per€ ¦ú10, a pesar que el tema viene siendo abordado por diversas organizaciones de la sociedad civil desde hace mas de 7 a€ ¦ños11.
Por ello, las organizaciones de la sociedad civil para conocer la magnitud y gravedad de la violencia machista que mata, han tenido que recurrir a la investigaci€ ¦ón en algunos medios de comunicaci€ ¦ón escrita a nivel nacional.
As€ ¦í, de acuerdo a la € ¦última investigaci€ ¦ón sobre feminicidio realizada por CLADEM PER€ ¦Ú12, entre enero del 2004 y julio del 2007, 403 mujeres fueron
asesinadas, victimas de la discriminaci€ ¦ón y la violencia basada en g€ ¦énero.
Cabe criticar que los medios de comunicaci€ ¦ón persistan en un tratamiento noticioso, que € ¦’³romantiza€ ¦’´ la violencia y donde los celos invisibilizan la
verdadera causa de estos asesinatos, el deseo machista de controlar la sexualidad de las mujeres.
Nos parece importante abordar el problema desde una perspectiva de la salud mental y los celos como un problema psicol€ ¦ógico y psiqui€ ¦átrico, pero este
abordaje no debe ser descontextualizado del problema de la violencia contra la mujer como un problema de desigualdad y discriminaci€ ¦ón producto del
machismo existente, por lo que no s€ ¦ólo se necesita de tratamiento
terap€ ¦éutico para solucionarlo si no la voluntad pol€ ¦ítica expresada en leyes, pol€ ¦íticas y recursos eficaces para erradicar el origen pol€ ¦ítico, social y cultural del problema.
Por todo ello, demandamos al Presidente de la Rep€ ¦ública rinda cuentas sobre los asesinatos de las mujeres debido a la falta de pol€ ¦íticas eficaces de
prevenci€ ¦ón; al Presidente del Poder Judicial y a la Fiscal de la Naci€ ¦ón rindan cuentas por la falta de protecci€ ¦ón de las mujeres y sanci€ ¦ón de los criminales; y al Congreso de la Rep€ ¦ública, que apruebe una Ley Marco contra
la Violencia de G€ ¦énero a las Mujeres, fiscalice el cumplimiento del principio de debida diligencia tanto del Poder Ejecutivo como del Poder Judicial, y apruebe las partidas presupuestales proporcionales a la gravedad
del problema que se debe erradicar.

1 Katherine Sihuas era una sub € ¦’¶ oficial de la Polic€ ¦ía, que fue asesinada por su esposo de dos balazos el € ¦último 3 de enero. Luego de asesinar a su
