Indiens Regionalwahlen inmitten einer verheerenden COVID-Krise

Hunderte Millionen schreiten in fünf Regionen zu den Urnen

Im Zeitraum vom 27. März bis zum 29. April 2021 wählten die Bürger in den indischen Bundesstaaten West-Bengalen, Assam, Tamil Nadu, Kerala und dem Unionsterritorium Puducherry ihre legislativen Vertreter. Es handelte sich hierbei um Regionalwahlen in einer aus deutscher Sicht kaum vorstellbaren Größenordnung, da sie eine Bevölkerungszahl betrafen, die selbst diejenige Brasiliens (ca. 213 Millionen) übersteigt. Die Wahlen waren zudem ein Gradmesser für die tatsächliche Fähigkeit des indischen Premierministers Narendra Modi und seiner auf Unionsebene regierenden Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Regierungen in Teilen des Landes zu bilden, in denen sie bisher kaum Einfluss ausgeübt hatten. Bislang regierte die BJP von diesen Staaten nur in Assam.

Young journalists as actors of a new era of media with integrity and impact

In the last decade, especially during the last three years, many key strategies of donor support programmes have placed youth journalism high on their list of priorities. Young people in developed countries around the world have taken part in programmes for fostering the quality of journalism, which is becoming more visible. Youth journalism is considered vital for the survival of certain communities, and it is supported by means of increasingly accessible and visible trainings by media organisations, youth programmes in local newsrooms, school newspapers, as well as podcasts and other digital platforms. Youth journalism is a solution to certain pressing issues and a platform for ideas that will transform communities, cities, countries and the world, in the present and future.

La diplomacia parlamentaria en derechos humanos

Investigación de Gabriel Salvia editada por KAS Partidos y Cadal

Rara vez la política exterior en derechos humanos de un país democrático alcanza a todas las dictaduras, pues prevalecen los intereses económicos, es decir el carácter prioritario que se le asigna a exportar productos y atraer inversiones del extranjero. Este es uno de los motivos por el cual se requiere el accionar de la diplomacia parlamentaria. El Parlamento es un poder independiente del Ejecutivo y por tal motivo sus miembros surgidos del voto popular tienen la capacidad política de realizar acciones que los gobiernos no pueden, en especial en las democracias en vías de desarrollo.
