The Czech authorities are continuing to place Romani children in schools for pupils with quot;mild mental disabilitiesquot;, leaving them with a sub-standard education, Amnesty International said in a report published on Wednesday.br /
br /
quot;Systematic discrimination against Romani children in education continues despite repeated international and national exposure. The Czech authorities must end the segregation of Roma children in schools and act to tackle the underlying causes of discrimination,quot; said Nicola Duckworth, director of Amnesty International's Europe and Central Asia Programme.br /
br /
Amnesty International's report, emstrongInjustice renamed: Discrimination in education of Roma persists in the Czech Republic/strong/em, examines the systematic discrimination that still exists in the Czech education system, despite a 2007 judgment by the European Court of Human Rights.br /
br /
The Court found that the Czech Republic had discriminated against Romani children by placing them in quot;special schoolsquot; for children with mental disabilities, where they received a sub-standard education.br /
br /
With a new Schools Act in 2005, the Czech authorities merely renamed quot;special schoolsquot; as quot;practical elementary schoolsquot;, but the system which places children in these schools and teaches a limited curriculum, essentially remains the same.br /
br /
quot;Recent measures to support Romani children in mainstream education announced last November by the Czech authorities do not go far enough as they are neither comprehensive nor legally binding,quot; said Nicola Duckworth.br /
br /
Amnesty International visited several schools in Ostrava, where in 1999 18 Romani children initially filed the court case, which eventually led to the European Court judgement.br /
br /
The organization found Romani children are still over-represented in so-called practical schools and classes intended for pupils with quot;mild mental disabilities,quot; due to the failure of mainstream educational establishments to meet their needs.br /
br /
In some places, Romani children make up more than 80 per cent of the students of practical elementary schools.br /
br /
Romani children are also segregated in Roma-only schools which often offer a lower quality education, limiting their future education and employment opportunities.br /
br /
The placement in practical schools and classes for pupils with quot;mild mental disabilitiesquot; is based on the results of assessments that fail to factor in cultural and linguistic differences of Romani children and may be compounded by the prejudice of staff conducting them.br /
br /
quot;The duty to ensure the successful inclusion of Romani children into integrated mainstream schools lies with the Czech authorities who have a unique opportunity to reverse decades of discrimination and segregation,quot; Nicola Duckworth said. br /
nbsp; br /
quot;Education is the way out of a vicious circle of poverty and marginalization that affects a large part of the Roma population in the country. Unless the Czech authorities give them equal opportunities, they will be denying Romani children their chances for a better future and full participation in the life of the country.quot; br /
br /
Amnesty International has called on the Czech authorities to:br /
/p
ul
	liFreeze all placements of children into practical schools and classes for pupils with quot;mild mental disabilitiesquot; for the school year 2010/11, pending a review of the need for such a curriculum and schools;/li
	liEnforce in law the desegregation of education and adopt a comprehensive plan with clear yearly targets to eliminate school segregation of Romani children;/li
	liEnsure that additional support is immediately made available for children who need it in order to effectively participate in and develop to their fullest potential within the integrated mainstream elementary school./li

br /
The petition, which was delivered to key figures at the start of the conference on Monday was organized by TckTckTck, campaigning hub for over 50 international organizations.br /
br /
Amnesty International has been campaigning as part of the Tck Tck Tck coalition and helped collect signatures for the petition. A delegation from the organization will be taking part in COP15.br /
br /
At a conference organized by Amnesty International on 30 November to discuss the impact of climate change on human rights, Secretary General Irene Khan issued a joint statement with Mary Robinson ndash; former President of Ireland, former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and President of the Ethical Globalization Initiative.br /
br /
The statement said that if governments fail to act at Copenhagen, quot;basic human rights for the world's poorest and most marginalised communities will hang in the balance. The rights to food, water, shelter and health all risk being undermined by climate change.quot;br /
br /
Observed and projected changes attributable to climate change include the contraction of snow-covered areas; shrinking of sea ice and melting of polar ice caps; rise of sea levels; increased frequency of hot extremes and heat waves; increase in areas affected by drought; and increased intensity of tropical cyclones. br /
br /
There is link between such environmental impacts and the ability to realize a range of human rights. br /
br /
Acute water shortages and decreased crop yields in the poorer region of the world, to take just two examples, would have grave implications for the rights of millions of people.br /
br /
The petition was handed over to United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Executive Secretary Yvo de Boer, Danish Prime Minister Lars Loslash;kke Rasmussen and COP 15 President and Danish Climate Minster Connie Hedegaard.br /
br /
At the handover, 15 young people from all over the world held up large scale quot;building blocksquot; which spelled out quot;10 million people expect a fair, ambitious and binding dealquot; to show leaders that all the elements required for an effective climate treaty are present.br /
br /
TckTckTck chair Kumi Naidoo said the size of the petition demonstrated the huge groundswell of support for world leaders to deal with the climate crisis.br /
br /
Amnesty International's Demand Dignity campaign aims to end the human rights violations that drive and deepen global poverty.br /
br /
The campaign is mobilizing people all over the world to demand that governments, corporations and others, who have power, listen to the voices of those living in poverty and recognize and protect their rights.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Amnesty International on Wednesday urged African government representatives meeting in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to reaffirm their support for the International Criminal Court (ICC).br /
br /
In a memorandum published this week, strongemThe International Criminal Court: The Contribution Africa Can Make to the Review Conference/em/strong, the organization called on African governments to clearly state they would prevent any officials accused of genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes from seeking safe haven in their countries. br /
br /
quot;Only justice can lay a firm foundation for lasting peace,quot; said Kolawole Olaniyan, Africa Legal Adviser at Amnesty International. br /
br /
quot;More than a decade ago, African states were amongst the strongest supporters of the proposal to establish a permanent international criminal court that would be able to investigate and prosecute those responsible for some of the worst crimes in the world ndash; they must renew this commitment, as the survival of the ICC as an effective international body depends on this,quot; said Kolawole Olaniyan. br /
br /
quot;African victims of genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes are some of the chief beneficiaries of the ICC ndash; the ICC must be fully supported so that it can continue its important work on their behalf.quot; br /
br /
The call came after Sudanese President Omar al Bashir cancelled scheduled visits to South Africa, Uganda, Nigeria and Venezuela, when it became clear that he could face arrest and surrender to the ICC, particularly in light of African civil society protests to the visits. br /
br /
In its memorandum, Amnesty International urged African states to strongly defend the provisions of the ICC that exclude any claimed immunity for state officials ndash; regardless of rank,nbsp; including heads of state ndash; from prosecution for genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes. br /
br /
quot;Every single legal instrument adopted since the Second World War by the international community has rejected immunity from prosecution for any government official charged with genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes,quot; said Kolawole Olaniyan. br /
br /
quot;In fact, every international court to consider the question of immunity since the establishment of the ICC has concluded that heads of state cannot successfully assert any purported immunity from prosecution for genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes.quot; br /
br /
Amnesty International said that to ensure the ICC is an effective complement to national courts, it must be able to exercise its jurisdiction without political interference. br /
br /
quot;With the exception of Darfur, all situations under investigation by the ICC were referred to the Prosecutor by African states themselves ndash; the Central African Republic, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uganda,quot; said Kolawole Olaniyan. br /
br /
The organization also urged African governments to evaluate carefully the positive and negative aspects of establishing a regional criminal court, as suggested by the African Union in an Assembly meeting in July 2009, especially its costs.]]></description>
