(2nd meeting) International Dialogue on Migration 2024 - "Facilitating Regular Pathways to a Better Future: Harnessing the Power of Migration".

International Dialogue on Migration (IDM) 2024 on the theme "Facilitating Regular Pathways to a Better Future: Harnessing the Power of Migration" (organized by the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

This session will contribute to:

An evidence-based understanding of the challenges and opportunities for migration today andtomorrow, including geopolitical crises and scaling-up of solutions, as well as ways to address gaps in current knowledge.

Identifying innovative and cutting-edge solutions that governments at local, national, and regional levels have already put in place or could develop in the future, to harness the potential of regular pathways for migration as part of a 360-degree approach to human mobility.

Unpacking how multilateral action and broad-based partnerships including private sector, diasporas and local communities, at the national, regional and global levels to facilitate regular and safe pathways for migration contribute to the response to some of the most distressing crises in the world, supporting integration and the transition to peace and prosperity.

Understanding how to achieve more accessible, people-centered, rights-based, accessible, sustainable and safe regular pathways, including key policy, operational and technical solutions that should be in place throughout the migration cycle.

"Asylkompromiss" verhöhnt UN-Flüchtlingskonvention

Mehr Haft ist keine Lösung

Da diskutieren einige Bundesländer ob sie grundrechtswidrig die Präventivhaft für Jede/n von 2 auf 7 oder 14 Tage verlängern. Gleichzeitig sind sich die EU Staaten "einig" - eigentlich ist es nur die Niederlage des Rechts gegenüber den rechten Regierungen in Polen, Ungarn, Italien, ... - dass sie die Dauer der Grenz­ver­fah­ren von bis­lang "nur" vier Wochen auf bis zu 12 Wochen verdreifachen.

Weiterhin wird allen "offensichtlich Unberechtigten" der Rechtsweg eines Asylverfahrens von vornherein genommen. Pro Asyl protestiert gegen diesen weiteren Abbau des Asylrechts genau 30 Jahre nach dessen formaler Abschaffung durch die damalige CDU Regierung unter Kanzler Kohl und beschreibt die Zustände an den Grenzen sehr realistisch:

„Wenn Menschenrechte verschwinden"

Es war ein langer Weg, die Menschenrechte international zu verankern. Marie Juchacz, Mahatma Ghandi, Eleanor Roosevelt, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela sind nur einige, die dafür gekämpft haben: Die Menschenrechte gelten für alle, das muss auch künftig so bleiben!

Diese Errungenschaft verspielt die Europäische Union heute. Indem sie unter dem Druck rechtspopulistischer Regierungen die Menschenrechte Schutzsuchender zunehmend außer Acht lässt. Indem sie bei Verbrechen gegen sie wegschaut. Indem sie das Unrecht sogar finanziert und legalisiert. Flüchtlinge werden an den Rändern der EU gedemütigt, geschlagen und gefoltert und immer wieder auch dem Tod überlassen.

Ein Beispiel: Im Oktober 2020 überqueren fünf Flüchtlinge die bosnisch-kroatische Grenze. Die kroatische Polizei nimmt sie fest und übergibt vier von ihnen an maskierte Personen, die sie grausam misshandeln. „Ich sollte mich bis auf die Unterwäsche ausziehen ... Zwei haben meine Arme festgehalten, zwei meine Beine. Vier andere haben auf mich eingeschlagen" - so berichtet einer der Betroffenen. Fast nackt und teils schwer verletzt werden die Flüchtlinge zurück auf die bosnische Seite verschleppt.

Den Schutzsuchenden gelingt später die Weiterflucht. Mit unserer Hilfe durchlaufen sie nun in Deutschland ihr Asylverfahren. Gleichzeitig geht PRO ASYL zusammen mit Partnerorganisationen gegen das Unrecht vor, das sie im EU-Mitgliedsstaat Kroatien erlitten haben: Im Dezember 2020 erstattet unser Partner in Kroatien, das Centre for Peace Studies (CPS), Strafanzeige, unter anderem wegen Folter, Misshandlung, Vergewaltigung, und Raub. Bis heute hat die kroatische Staatsanwaltschaft nicht reagiert. Ab Juli 2021 gehen wir zusammen mit dem CPS den Fall erneut an. Inzwischen liegen uns auch Schilderungen anderer Flüchtlinge über ähnliche Gewalttaten vor.

Im November 2021 verurteilt der Europäische Gerichtshof für Menschenrechte Kroatien erstmals wegen eines illegalen Pushbacks mit Todesfolge. Opfer war ein sechsjähriges Mädchen. Im April 2023 erheben die Geflüchteten beim kroatischen Verfassungsgericht Beschwerde wegen mangelnder Ermittlungen. Sie werden unterstützt von einem Netzwerk europäischer Menschenrechtsorganisationen, auch von PRO ASYL.

Kroatien wird trotz vieler Berichte über schwere Menschenrechtsverletzungen 2023 auch mit Unterstützung Deutschlands in den europäischen Schengen-Raum aufgenommen. Damit werden Kroatiens Verstöße gegen die Menschenrechte buchstäblich belohnt.

Wir sagen: So darf es in Europa nicht weitergehen. Wir alle sind betroffen, denn die Menschenrechte gelten für alle! Das absolute Verbot, Schutzsuchende an den Grenzen unter Gewaltanwendung abzuwehren, ist eines dieser wertvollen Rechte -ebenso wie der Anspruch auf ein faires und rechtsstaatliches Asylverfahren.

Auf der Webseite von Pro Asyl gibt es die Möglichkeit gegen solche Menschenrechtsverletzungen und den aktuellen "Asylkompromiss"  mit einer Petiiton zu protestieren.

Land routes through Africa twice as deadly for migrants as Mediterranean ones – UN

The UN say more migrants and refugees are crossing dangerous routes in the Sahara, becoming subject to all kinds of violence, according to AP News.

Criminal gangs in the Sahara subject migrants to enslavement, organ removal, rape, kidnapping for ransom and other abuses, according to a UN report.

The report, released Friday by the UN refugee and migration agencies and the Mixed Migration Centre research group, estimated that land routes in Africa were twice as deadly as sea routes across the Mediterranean Sea.

New conflicts and instability in countries, such as Mali, Burkina Faso, and Sudan, fuelled an increase in travelling to the Mediterranean, the report emphasised. Nigeria, Ivory Coast, and Guinea were the leading countries of origin for migrants.

This comes as many politicians in Europe and beyond have fuelled or gained support from anti-immigrant sentiment in an important election year. However, conflict, economic discord, repression, and the effects of climate change in many countries in the developing world have nonetheless increased the flow of migrants across borders. This has led to greater risks of physical violence and fatalities.

Refugees and migrants are increasingly traversing areas where insurgent groups, militias and other criminal actors operate, and where human trafficking, kidnapping for ransom, forced labor and sexual exploitation are rife.

The authors recognise that complete statistics on deaths on land routes in Africa are not available. However, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) has reported a more than threefold increase in the number of refugees and asylum seekers in Tunisia. It is a key transit country for migrants seeking to reach Europe. Read more HERE

LT Doodle Stream Recap/Questions!

(Part 1/Part 2)

Hello everyone! Wisteriasymphony here. Yesterday the LT hivemind had the wonderful experience of our first doodle stream together!

For the purposes of cataloging all of the questions we answered on our stream (because somebody doesn't know how streaming works yet *COUGH COUGH*), I'm going to be answering them all here!

La Terreur takes place in 2002, and the events of the timeline last about a year. Of course, it's a retrofuturistic cyberpunk-y 2002, which explains later developments like the alliance ring and so on.

They're the same au! Miracle Exposure has just been a tag Silu has used to categorize talking about the effects of the miraculous, but it all happens within LT.

Hawkmoth is already a pretty solid design as is. Shadowmoth and Monarch will probably get overhauls later on, but why fix what isn't broken? Hawkmoth is already just the right amount of gross and creepy and fancy and bald, so no need to revamp that.

The consensus to far is that Felix arrived before the quarantine was instated, but he could easily have bribed officials into letting him into Paris if he needed to. The quarantine is mostly to keep people in, and if some idiot with a death wish high-paying member of the british aristocracy is willing to give money to a dying city just for a ticket in, then why wouldn't they let him?

@gaussiansphere put it quite nicely in the stream when he said that the heroes aren't trapped in Paris physically, but mentally. There's nothing theoretically stopping Ladybug from blowing a hole in the defenses of Paris and going on the run, but she has a moral obligation to protect her city. Everyone else feels roughly the same way, though we did discuss the idea of having the concept of migration fit Max better by virtue of his big goals in life involving getting out of Paris.

Also, the miraculous will likely be passed out differently. We're not following exact episodes, only storylines.

On a similar note....

Ladybug will probably alternate who she gives all of the minor miraculous to multiple times over the course of the story. She would find it ridiculous to pass them out to people "for keeps", as @sillysiluriforme put it, and before a certain point in the story will favor adult holders over teen holders. (Not saying why this changes though heehee, spoilers.)

MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!!!!!!!! Los ships no son un foco de La Terreur, pero.. Adrigaminette 100% mejor del mundo JAJAJAJA XP. de lo contrario es lo mismo que el canon.

Opinions de los kwamis hacia sus portadores es q los ven como niños. Son indiferentes a la humanidad en realidad. Los kwamis también los vicios q usan sus portadores para obtener. (Adrien huele a tabaco Y queso apestoso :/ Marinette no se afectada porque Tikki quiere el sabores dulces en su vaporizador).

#wispanol arc hehe. also YES you saw that right English audience, the kwamis are smokers. Marinette has to ask Luka's bandmates for vapes because the closest bodega to her house is run by a sweet Chinese grandma who her mom likes talking to, so if she bought from there she'd be absolutely screwed. Adrien just buys all of the tobacco as Chat, though.

We're not planning on having Aspik show up in LT, at least as far as we have planned. If he did, however, his rat eating desire would definitely go through the roof. He'd probably try and time his rat-eating specifically for when he's Chat Noir, just to make things easier for himself. (Until he eats one as Adrien by accident and has to live with the mental baggage for the rest of his miserable little life...)

Well.. there are a lot of characters that really don't need redesigns! Or where redesigns would be extremely minimal. Marinette's dad only really needs to get proportional legs and then that's it, and the same philosophy extends to most of the other minor characters.

Here are some of @clemnoir's designs for the rest of the class, though!

In fact, her lovely annotations somewhat answer another question we received....

We haven't figured out everyone yet, but the scholarships group so far is: Kim, Max, Ivan, Rose, Nathaniel, and Mylene. Adrien, Chloe, Sabrina, Alix, and Marinette are all paid tuition.

There could be! The ancient miraculous are indeed destroyed, much like the infinite amount of others like them, Bearinette and Lambdrien are just explorations of what it would be like if they hadn't been. The bear and lamb miraculous are not canon to LT, nor would any future ancients be. If we get any good ideas, you'll see them.

[wis is biting all of her fingers to prevent herself from talking about the coyote....]

The big issue Marinette has with being Multimouse is that she's no longer respected as the leader, at least as much as she's used to. Because she sees Ladybug as more of a responsibility than fun superpowers, her side effects are more psychological by consequence, whereas Adrien's are more physical. She also feels some sense of jealousy towards Scarabella, as well as general insecurity over not being the leader when she's Multimouse... but despite this she continues to use the Mouse Miraculous more often than in canon just for the sake of "training" Alya.

Silu dice muchas gracias!!!!! ...No conocen sus identidades fsgdss. Exposición al milagros del raton causa disocociación, duplicación no literal para Marinette jajaj. (Pero, no puedo decir si dos Marinettes aparecen en LT..... tal vez, tal vez no? huummmm)

Tambien, ellos comiendo ratones en privado. Nadie los trae en su almuerzo. Todos ellos tratan con sus síntomas en secreto.

Violence and misery and horror and class dynamics. I'll get into it more in Part 2, but characters' relationships to power is a huge part of this AU, both of the magical and non-magical variety.

Lucifer x GN adopted child reader

A/n: still have writers block. Trying to move and do school! Sorry it’s taking long! But I’m also going through some stress and emotions too and couldn’t write- but to heal me, I have made some Lucifer parent headcannons because he is the father I never had😔😔

-Platonic

-He adopted you out of depression, and being lonely. Not seeing his daughter for so long, and his wife(wives) really broke his heart. And since he can’t have children due to his lack of woman, he decided to adopt! Where you come in!

-When he saw your adorable little face in one of the foster home rooms, he knew you were perfect. You were young, not old enough to know who he was since Lucifer/Satan wasn’t out in public all the time, or at all. So while the other kids that were older cowered in fear, you were curious and un afraid, something that Lucifer loved about you.

-He can cook. Good. Expect him to make you home cooked meals all the time, so homemade dinosaur nuggets, aren’t you lucky? He’ll also help you learn how to cook, family bonding time! He has so many pictures of you two cooking together. He doesn’t mind the mess, he’s literally Satan, just a snap of his fingers and everything is clean!

-He definitely gives you rubber ducks as gifts almost everyday. He’ll make you personal ducks for you, a character, friend, yourself, anything! Of course, he’d never test any of the rubber ducks with abilities on you. He’ll give you those once he’s 100% sure they’re safe. Expect him to get or make you duck costumes or clothes. He’ll order some matching duck pajamas for the two of you to wear on movie nights, both of you watched DreamWorks “migration” so many times, but it’s your favorite movie, you both watch it together at least once a week.

-he’s not big on punishments. The farthest he’ll go is put you in time out. He has a stool for you in the corner of his office(with duck prints of course) and makes you sit there until you learned your lesson. He’s never hit you, or punish you physically, nor would he hurt you mentally, he loves you to much to do that.

-He would help you accomplish your dreams. He wasn’t able to accomplish his, but he can help you. He wants you to be free, to be as curious as you want, to let you learn. He wants you to be happy. He’ll give you everything he didn’t get. and, he’ll make sure you are on the right path to your life, and that you have everything you need to accomplish your goals and dreams. He’ll do make sure every obstacle is solved for you, but will also let you try to get through it on your own.

-He will never let heaven know you exist. He doesn’t want you to be targeted but them, especially exorcists. If your a sinner child, he’ll protect you with his life in his castles he’ll put you in a hidden room with him, and to keep you entertained he’ll play with toys with you, watch tv, sing to you, or just talk and tell you his past dreams. If your hellborn, then he’ll be less panicked about the extermination. But he wouldn’t let you outside, or near any of the doors and windows during that time.

-Lucifer would be very nervous to tell Charlie about you. He doesn’t want her to think he replaced her l, he just needs someone to take care of and protect that wouldn’t leave him. The day you met Charlie was the day Charlie had called him over to talk to him about getting them into heaven. And he thought it would be a “great” time to meet your older sister.

-You were Nervous, but more excited than your father. When Charlie saw you, she was overjoyed and knelt down on say hi, she was so kind and sweet to you. You were a little kid! She couldn’t be mean (if she was). She asked her father who you were and when she found out you were her adopted sister, she was both excited and heartbroken. She was upset. Not at you, her father. He was just starting another family being her back…? She would have loved to help raise you, play with you. But she can’t change the past, so she might as well make the most of your appearance now.

-After meeting Charlie, Lucifer brought you to her hotel more often after they felt with all the extermination stuff and rebuilt it. He’d leave you with Charlie for a weekend every now and then so you two could bond. You two have sleep overs all the time. Plus Vaggie. Vaggie likes getting involved, she wants to get to know you more and have someone from Charlie’s family like her more. You three have little “girls days” together, even jf alastor joins from time to time

-Speaking of Alastor, neither Charlie and Lucifer let you go near him alone. He’s too dangerous. Charlie will let you go near him, speak to him and play with him only if she is with you. Lucifer will not let you go near him at all. He tried to talk Charlie out of letting you see him, but Charlie doesn’t want to start any tension. Lucifer fears you may be taken away from him or hurt by Alastor. Charlie clearly likes Alastor more than him, and Lucifer doesn’t want it to happen again, so your interactions around Alastor are very limited here Lucifer is around.

-But he is a pretty great father otherwise. He wants to treat you right, and be there for you even if he couldn’t be there for Charlie.

i'm so infuriated

I'm not Jewish and I'm so infuriated at the world.

I can't imagine how it must feel to be Jewish. Especially as this entire ordeal has made me dive more into educating myself about Jewish history and how the world truly has always blamed everything on the Jews.

How is everything their fault?

Even the crucifixion of Christ has been blamed on the Jews when it was a Roman tradition?

Martin Luther who is known as one of the original reformers in Christianity's history wrote a book called "On the Jews and Their Lies". In which he advocated for burning down synagogues, Jewish homes and if that didn't work, Jewish people!

Apparently, somehow, Jews caused the Black Death despite the fact that the most predominant modern theory is that due to climate change in Asia, rodents began to flee the dried out grasslands to more populated areas which ended up spreading the infected fleas they carried, thus spreading the disease. The fleas infected not just rats but ground rodents in general, so once the rats migrated the fleas could jump to any ground rodent and the infection spread.

Some of the craziest modern stuff though has come mostly from the Middle East (i wonder why)...

Apparently, Israel has remote control sharks that can attack Egyptian civilians and tourists, at least that's what a Governor of Egypt things. source

According to a fundamentalist group of Muslims called the Wahhabis, the Jews have a secret ally they've been conspiring with... the Gharqad tree. A tree, they call it the Jew tree. source Which is identified as either nitre bushes or Lycium which is part of the nightshade family, it's such a thing that the TREE WIKI PAGE TALKS MORE ABOUT THAT THAN THE TREE ITSELF source

Palestine once said that Israel was breeding super rats that could grow twice the size of a normal rat - just to chase Arabs out of Jerusalem, note this was in like 2008, where are these super rats NOW? source

The Nation of Islam (an organization) accused Jews of tricking people into thinking slavery exists??????? Sorry, "still" exists. This was originally in 1996, the gall this motherfucker had in 1996 to say "Where is the proof?" - oh, his name is Louis Farrakhan btw and there is an entire section dedicated to him on the anti-slavery website iabolish.org - his page

Also, Pokémon is a Zionist conspiracy plot to overthrow Saddam Hussein, at least, in 2001 that was what some Iraqi security personal reported. source

listen... I won't lie. I love a good conspiracy theory because to be honest, the amount I trust my government or anyone in authority is so small that just about anything could come out as true and I'd be so un-phased.

but blaming the Jews for everything when they make up an estimated 0.2% of the population versus say the 23% that is Muslim? Which there are approximately 50 Muslim-Majority countries in the world, though depending on sources the exact number differs.

If anything Christianity (32%) and the unaffiliated (16.3%) should be eyed at. Also, how come no one ever gives the folk religion people a hard time? Not that anyone deserves to be given a hard time as long as they aren't hurting anyone, it just boggles my mind to be honest.

sources for numbers cited came from this website: https://worldpopulationreview.com/

anyway, woke up this morning and just wanted to say this cause I'm mad and I want to show my support but also call out stupid people. I'm here to fight for Israel and the Jews, fuck off pro-palestine simps.
