Refugees
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Unjustly exiled from their home country, refugees are persons forced to migrate to a new country for security and protection. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees legally defines refugees as “people who are outside their countries because of a well-founded fear of persecution based on their race, religion, nationality, political opinion or social group.”The UNHCR reports that there are 20.8 million refugees and other people in need of protection worldwide. Out of that large number, nine million children are refugees.With these large numbers of people, it’s easy to neglect the real human struggle that takes place for every individual whose home and safety is taken away from them. Every human being must have the right to find refuge in a foreign country, with the option to return home voluntarily, or resettle in another country.

a man having a baby
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

A transgendered man and his wife were seeking to become pregnant. His wife was physically unable to carry a child because in a previous surgery the womb was removed. The couple decided that instead of choosing a seregate mother, that they would simply impregnate her husband. How, you might ask? The man was once a female. Tormented by the feeling of being in someone else’s body, the man had taken testosterone hormone therapy to change his body into the body he felt he needed. The man, however, had never undergone reconstructive surgery of the reproductive organs because he always wanted to have a child. Therefore since he had all of the necessary organs to successfully carry a child, the couple decided that the husband would be artificially inseminated.

Civil War in Africa
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Africa is the one region where such economic characteristics are the norm and this fully explains Africa’s distinctive incidence of civil war. Yes, Africa is riven by ethnic differences, so that where civil wars flare up they will invariably be fought along ethnic lines. But this does not mean that the ethnic differences are ‘causing’ the conflict. Globally, ethnically diverse societies are no more at risk of civil war than other societies. The only exception to this pattern is where the largest ethnic group is in a majority – that does indeed increase risks and we can think of examples in Africa. But Africa is so ethnically diverse that in most societies no group is in a majority. Fewer African societies have ethnic majorities than other regions.

AIDS/HIV

The International AIDS Society is the world's leading independent association of HIV/AIDS professionals from around the world.The organization's vision is a worldwide force of professionals working together to prevent, control and treat HIV/AIDS.The growth of the HIV/AIDS epidemic can be linked to national and global inequalities. It will influence many aspects of international political, economic, and social relations this century. This now inexorably unfolding long-wave event presents us with many challenges. How and whether we confront them poses questions of how we think about our humanity, our obligations and our responsibilities to others.
