"Het aantal bij de Kamer van Koophandel geregistreerde kerkgenootschappen is in 10 jaar tijd meer dan verdubbeld." Daar kijken we niet van op: SKIN begeleidt ca 10 kerken per jaar hierbij. De groei is groter want velen worden stichting ipv kerkgenootschap. ad.nl/binnenland/gel…

Mijn hart breekt bij dit bericht en foto. Dit heeft niets met #democratie te maken. Denk met diep respect aan de vrouwelijke parlementariërs die voor de coup in het parlement zaten en met wie ik mocht samenwerken, en contact houd, tot op de dag van vandaag nos.nl/artikel/260658…

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

UNESCO expresses concern over the protection of cultural heritage sites amidst escalating violence in the Middle East. On Monday 2 march, the Golestan Palace in Tehran, a UNESCO World Heritage site, was reportedly damaged by debris and the shock wave following an airstrike to the Arag Square, located in the buffer zone of the site in the Iranian capital. UNESCO continues to closely monitor the situation of cultural heritage in the country and across the region, with a view to ensuring its protection. To that end, the Organization has communicated to all parties concerned the geographical coordinates of sites on the World Heritage List as well as those of national significance, to avoid any potential damage. UNESCO recalls that cultural property is protected under international law, notably the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict, including its enhanced protection mechanism, as well as the 1972 Convention concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.
