G8 Song

Author: Andrea Dal Piaz <andreaadalpiaz@gmail.com>

“G8 song” e’ una canzone scritta e cantata da un gruppo musicale di uno dei piu’ grandi slum di Nairobi, Korogocho. Il nome del gruppo, HopeRaisers, sintetizza efficaciemente l’idea che i 4 musicisti vogliono diffondere tra le nuove generazioni tanto all’interno quanto all’esterno della baraccopoli: un messaggio di speranza, unita’ e rivendicazioni sociali. In “G8 song” gli HopeRaisers chiedono ai leader del G8 di cancellare un debito che impedisce loro lo sviluppo: nel 2006 la cifra destinata a ripagare il debito e i suoi interessi e’ stata 4 volte superiore alla spesa per la sanita’ e 10 volte quella per l’acqua.

Author: Nilayan Dutta <nilayandutta@gmail.com>

Sundarban, the world’s largest estuarine forest lies 100 Km South to the Eastern Indian city of Kolkata, is the land of wild lives specially the famous Royal Bengal Tiger. The region situated in the lower end of the Gangetic West Bengal, is this world’s largest delta covered by mangrove forest and vast saline mud flats. A land of 54 tiny islands crisscrossed by innumerable tributaries of Ganges is the abode of varied flora & fauna population. An area of 9630 sq. km of which 70 percent is under saline water, makes the life of human inhabitants very difficult. The poor economic infrastructure causes many health disorders to the people living in the region.

Southern Health Improvement Samity (SHIS) a Non Government Organisation has brought a new ray of hope in fighting against Tuberculosis in Sundarban region in India.
