Press Release 22/08/08 - CIVIL SOCIETY SHOULD BE REPRESENTED ON CLIMATE CHANGE COMMITTEE - Zminijietna

Zminijietna - Voice of the Left said that while it welcomes the setting up of Government's Climate Change Committee, this should include wide representation from civil society.

Zminijietna said

"To our knowledge, Environmental NGOs have not been consulted to nominate representatives in the Climate Change Committee. Besides, in order to be truly representative, the climate change committee should also include other civil society representatives, for example, from socio-economic sectors, which once again, should be nominated by the organisations themselves".

Zminijietna added that civil society should also be widely represented in the MEPA Board, in MEUSAC, and in similar boards and committees. As regards NGOs, such processes should not only include NGOs which are registered with the State, but also other NGOs which actively participate in civil society.

Press Release 19/08/08 - MEPA Reform – Zminijienta’s proposals 

Zminijietna – Voice of the Left, appealed to Government to take action in order that MEPA becomes accountable, consistent and democratic through its reform process. 

Zminijietna said

"MEPA is too far away from common citizens, who are frequently voiceless when they want to speak up on particular issues”.

"MEPA is characterised by ideology and political interference which are too much in favour of unsustainable development. Whilst we believe that Government should have ultimate responsibility on MEPA, we cannot accept that big developers are privileged over common citizens. Nor can we accept that MEPA boards frequently ignore advice of MEPA’s own experts and of civil society representatives”. 

"Zminijietna believes that there should be wider representation of civil society on MEPA boards, through the representation on NGOs, local councils and other organisations, together with representatives of the Government. We also appeal that MEPA uses more representative and scientific methods in its studies, whereby social and ecological impacts are given the importance they deserve together with economic impacts”.

Visit Cuba July 2009

Zminijietna Left Youth is supporting the organisation Malta Cuba Friendship Association for the Jose-Marti European Solidarity camp covering a full two weeks next July. The International Work Brigade consists of groups from solidarity and socio-political organisations of several European countries mostly youths. Members of the Brigade spend two weeks in Caimito - Havana as a ‘Brigadista’, working and socialising with Cubans and people from all across Europe. It is a unique opportunity to experience the Cuban Revolution firsthand and show that Cuba is not alone. This event is organised by ICAP (Cuban Association of Friendship with other Nations).

This camp is ideal for students, youths, teachers, political activists and those wanting a different holdiay.

Participants will have the opportunity to see and experience the real Cuba:

Participation in any of the events is non-obligatory. Brigadistas also take part in a full programme of activities including educational and political events plus visits to hospitals and schools to see for yourself the successes of the Revolution. Entertainment is provided at the camp with live bands and dance lessons, whilst excursions to some of Cuba’s fantastic beaches and places of interest are organised. The brigadistas will also stay a weekend at a hotel in Pinar del Rio, an adjacent province to Havana, which also has its distinct characteristics from Havana.

More information can be obtained by emailing ZLY on zzxmalta@hotmail.co.uk or phoning/sms to 7928 3716 or 7937 0523 or from the maltacuba Society's website. www.maltacuba.org
