Bulletins No 11 of Karelia regional public organization Youth Information Legal Center of Indigenous Peoples ''Nevond''


"You can't make an omelet without breaking eggs".

On October, 25th and 26th this year, within the bounds of training courses (“Education in the Field of Human Rights, Rights of Indigenous Peoples”), in the Youth Informational Legal Center of Indigenous People "NEVOND", I attended the informational methodical meeting “Mechanisms of Protection of Indigenous Rights. Right to Water and Forest Resources", which was held in the Karelian well-known sanatorium (Belye kluchy). Elvira Grishenko – executive director of autonomous non-commercial organization “Right for Life” (Moscow) and Olga Olga Yakovleva, member of Moscow Regional Board of Barristers, Honorable Barrister of Russia, the head of the civil movement "Russia's Earth is the people's property" gave lectures. There were representatives of Kondopoga, Petrozavodsk, Murmansk area, Olonetsk and Louhskogo regions and others.
The rather free atmosphere reigned at the meeting, in spite of the fact that, from time to time a couple of participants started to argue between each other, not wishing to reserve the last word for the opponent. (It is interesting to notice, that the representative of the Karelian authority appeared to be the most ardent debater. He passionately insisted that all conversations about injustice of authorities' actions in relation to the ordinary people are "an empty place", lie and provocation). But these altercations did not disturb our meeting, arousing only the understanding smiles of participants. Mainly all participants attentively listened to the lecturers, asked, and received exact and detailed answers.
Miscellaneous topics were discussed. The main theme was clear from the name of the meeting. The problem in the field of nature management was personal to me. Now many people have interest in these questions and not only experts. But how it can't excite us if we want to live in a healthy society and to use gifts of nature insofar as nature has created for us initially? I have a son and I wish that he'll respire by the clean air, swim in non-contagious water, will not be afraid to pick a known berry in a forest. I want that he'll eat natural vegetables instead of ones which were grown no one knows where. Certainly, and before I thought of this question but I was sure that our state takes care of environmental protection in full, not without reason in the Constitution of the Russian Federation it states this. Both the Water Code and the Forest Code of the Russian Federation are accepted.
After studying these Codes you can conclude that some laws accepted in them contradict the Constitution. The impression is that people which accepted them, thought first of all not about of ecology's preservation and not about people (though the state is obliged to protect national interests), but in fact thought about themselves. How can we trust ministers who allow the destruction of forests around big and small lakes? I understand that a forest is money for a lot of people. Everyone wants to be enriched.
But why, at the cost of, misbalance of nature and the initiation of natural cataclysms as a consequence? In fact, even children, studying geography at a school know that it is impossible to deforest around bodies of water because it will lead to irreparable effects.
The climate has already changed in the entire world and not for the better. Whole kinds of flora and fauna disappear from the Earth. Someone may say: “Big deal! Animals and flowers why does that worry you?” (Yes, unfortunately, there are still such irresponsible people).
But do they think that the mankind is in danger, and not minimal?! Forecasts of scientists around the world converge on it, and it becomes bad to us not in centuries but in three decades as a maximum! I do not say that already now many countries of the world suffer from natural disasters.
Even the most qualified expert in the field of ecology cannot protect the world from destruction alone. But I believe, that, being engaged in questions of ecology together with other people understanding all importance of preservation of harmony with nature, we can not only help to save the butterflies and florets, but also we will keep our children healthy.

Together we can a great deal!

I'm very lucky that I'm a trainee of courses “Development of Public Initiatives” within the bounds of program “Education in the Field of Human Rights, Rights of Indigenous Peoples” which is held by the Karelian Regional Public Organization “Youth Information Legal Center of Indigenous Peoples NEVOND”.
I has known a lot of interesting and useful things here. The wonderful teachers, lawyers told us about the environmental problems in our region and country. They familiarized with the history of traditional lifestyle of indigenous people and small groups. Within the bounds of program the seminar “About Protection of Original Habitat, Traditional Lifestyle and Traditional Landuse of Indigenous Peoples of the Russian Federation” was held. We discussed constitutional and legislative guarantees of human rights, legal mechanisms of protection of Constitutional information right.
Unfortunately, law doesn't protect our natural recourses and nobody will decide all these problems for us. It is necessary to involve the greatest masses of population into discussing. It's very important to know their opinion. Nobody should stay indifferent.
This is our Native Land. Our ancestries lived and our children live here. We must save it, restore the monuments, water, forest, nature reserves. The questions of environmental conditions, health aren't indifferent for us. We should know everything about water bodies, forests, pollution and other problems.
Let's dialogue with representatives of regional authority, with public, to carry out work at schools. Together we can a great deal!

What do we want?


Proceeding from commonplace that Russia is a multinational country where many ethnic groups live, and if to be more exact are indigenous peoples, you are asked by the question -what do they want?
Today the situation of integration of indigenous people within the bounds of both their primordial - historical territories and theirs ethnos is clearly traced. Proceeding from the above I would like to understand, what they pursue, studying their languages, reviving their "worlds" with their own lifestyles within the bounds of Russian's civilization.
Let us imagine a situation; Russia is no more as a state. Numerous peoples as they wanted, live in their territories, speak their own languages and of course they are differed by their religions. Or not? Perhaps owing to the fact that our common religion is Orthodoxy we until together and we will never allow to destroy our generality, our Native land. We'll save its multinationality, our Russian language. And our culture we'll make great, proceeding from individuality of variety of ethnos.

What to do?

What to do? How to be? These questions face us every day. Frequently there are such moments in our lives when questions and problems are not solved right away and do not depend on us. One such problem is where and how to find work. For example, we'll take young women who became mums not so long ago.
And how does it begin? The girl leaving school thinks about her future profession beforehand. What course she'll choose, how to develop further, what education to take? And what happens then? On the cusp of adulthood for the girl the question arose where she'll go, whom will she appeal to? Having received knowledge, she addresses the different organizations with an enormous wish to work in her specialty, is realized as a personality and accumulated experience.

Namely: special attention is paid to her operational experience and recommendations from where she worked. And what turns out, on graduating from the university, the girl should have experience, though she could not apply her knowledge anywhere still because she doesn't have such opportunities. The following, the employer pays attention to, her marital status. Whether she is married or not? If yes, it means that most likely she is not far off from having a child. Consequently, it is a facilitated work at the beginning then a maternity leave for the term of till 1,5 years, and maybe even 3 years. It means, the potential employer will have to search for a replacement, arrange for payments and other problems which are not necessary for him.
Finally, we'll consider our problem when the young woman begins to be a mother. She starts to look for work after childbirth. What is she faced with? The employer having studied the resume's beginning, where it is indicated about education and where it was acquired, stops on the column "children", again. She has already children. It means the constant medical certificates; possible situations when it will necessary to leave from work a bit earlier.
And what occurs with the experience, interestingly. Time which a young mum gives to her child after childbirth (a maternity leave) is protected by the law it seems, but for the employer this time is considered spent, i.e. in his opinion a qualification is simply lost for this period.
These questions appear here: “what to do? “ and “ how to be? “. And answers can be different from these questions. The woman can look for work, to address the public employment services, the labor exchanges but in the resume it is described the same that I wrote above. Accordingly just "a protection" (as we call) is stayed. We can take the conclusion that without connections, familiars, relatives and other people we can do nothing today!!

What invented Henry Ford?


Safety on roads. How many people do think of it? It is difficult to say definitely, it is necessary to look statistics. Could Henry Ford, the inventor of a new child - the automobile on the petrol engine know what his became for mankind? Modern life is practically inconceivable without automobile. But let's talk about the other side of a medal of the automobile.
All lacks of the automobile can be divided into the following groups on a degree of importance:
Firstly, human life is above all. According to statistics annually in car accidents tens thousand people perish.
Secondly, the ecological question becomes more and more actual every day. Though the technical idea does not stand still, the full decision of problems will come not at once.
Sense of my work as I think - to analyze the tendency of development of the public relations connected with the automobile.
Aren't you afraid to let off your child to school? Across the road? I think yes. There are lots of examples of children's death on roads. On their fault and not only. Civil self-consciousness: two words from which observance we would remember and know the following concepts: respect on road, the responsibility for conscious behavior on road and the main formula: alcohol + driving of the automobile = absence of civil self-consciousness plus misfortune.
The amount of automobiles grows from year to year and practically already with each hour. If earlier the automobile was a luxury good now it is practically accessible to everyone. In this connection there are consequences...
I think it is possible to make the following comparisons: youth - ambition, maturity - necessity, an old age - desire to live.
If this to decipher in relation to such subject, as driving the automobile we will got the following: young people often show ambitions on road (recklessness, alcohol behind a rudder, etc.), adults do wrongful acts realized, because of their internal necessity (urgent affairs, disrespect to the law, no fear of the responsibility for an offence and a crime). Old people value life – it is too short.
Any person who gets into the driving set assigns to himself the certain duties on which observance depends life, health, safety of property of participants of public relations. It is duty to observe traffic rules, the responsibility before people and before himself. Everyone knows that it is impossible to return the past. But how many people think, what would be if I acted differently? For example, would not go drunk, would not exceed speed, would be more attentive... In fact this or that circumstance depends on behaviour of each participant of traffic.
We shall not go into subtleties of traffic rules but we shall only understand, on what the respect on road depends.
With enactment of the law about « Obligatory insurance of a civil liability", the situation with the sanction of questions of road / transport accidents improved, but nevertheless it is not panacea. The respect depends on internal belief of each person, and it is already psychology. On amount of automobiles in city depends the rhythm of his life and his… death. Sad comparison but it is so.
The environmental problem of city depends directly on its inhabitants and result of their activity. These are factories, plants, emissions of poisonous waste products and exhaust gases of automobiles and many other things.
As for automobiles the problem can be solved only with the help of science and technics when the level of toxicity from use of the automobile will be practically zero (use of hydrogen, a solar energy, etc.). For the beginning, I think, it is necessary to bring requirements to a technical condition of automobiles to the European level: in this connection to toughen requirements of passage of the official checkup. And, as I think, it is necessary to transfer the carrying out of the official checkup from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation to the specialized centers, new created for it. Not the secret, that buying the second-hand automobile from Europe its important to know if this car has the official checkup. If yes, this car is all right. And now remember the situation in Russia …
It's terrible that is suit lots of people.
Summarizing up above-stated we can say that safety on roads depends on us, our due behavior and respect each other. And the environmental problem of the big city requires the urgent sanction …

Language mustn't die.



« Everyone has the right to using mother tongue
On a free choice of language of relation,
Education, training and creativity »
The constitution of the Russian Federation
26 § 2
We, trainees of courses “Development of Public Initiatives” did not put the task to reveal problems of development of national languages of republic Karelia during our study the theme « “Education of Indigenous Peoples” ». Rapid development Karelian and Veps' languages began, in the period of "perestroika" as it was expressed by the expert in this area «the Period of romanticism ». Abc-books and textbooks, books for reading in Karelian and Veps' languages were published; the network of educational establishments with a Finno-Ugric component is open.
Having visited Finno-Ugric departments of Karelian, Veps' languages of the Karelian State Pedagogical University (KSPU) departments of Karelian and Veps' languages of Petrozavodsk State University (PetrSU) we could communicate with teachers and students. Problems begin already by entering the university. Firstly, on the faculty of KGPU the preparatory department was closed. Had finished it listeners became students. Secondly, the system "Contact" doesn't exist any more, when graduates of Petrozavodsk pedagogical college were enlisted at once to the third year. Thirdly, for two years « the School academy » didn't work during school vacation the gifted children from republic areas could improve the knowledge in the field of national languages. This year « the School academy » has opened the doors again, but parents have to pay two thousand rubles for each session, but it's too much for many families.
After finishing the universities there is a problem of employment of experts in Karelian and Veps' languages. In the areas of republic of Karelia where they could apply their knowledge, they aren't provided with dwelling.
There is a sense that an original cause of these and, probably, other problems in development of studying of national languages was the step back in this business. « The period of romanticism » was replaced by the period of pragmatism.
On Karelian lesson in Finno-Ugric school in the conversation with us girls told that it is an alive language, they want to study it to speak to grandmothers, so there is a hope, that they will transfer language knowledge, love to it to children and grandchildren. Language is the main value of any peoples; it keeps and expresses all the sides of national life. Language mustn't die!

All children are equal!

To say the truth, now the main problem is to create an environment for self-actualization of young invalids by means of receiving special skills of quick adaptation in developing and educational area; to organize the employment of young people with childhood disability. Development of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) isn’t available to youth with physical disability. Professional rehabilitation is not developed either. There is no normative base and practical guarantee of the accessible environment of life activity for invalids though there are a lot of laws and normative programs for availability of invalids in society. All these problems are worried about by parents with children - invalids, members of KRPOPWCI «Special family».
Karelian Regional Public Organization of Parents With Children - Invalids «Special family» (KRPOPWCI) has been carrying out its activity in Karelia territory since 1989. The main directions of its work are: adaptation, rehabilitation and integration of children into society, training and development of creative abilities, employment of children and youth with limited abilities, social support of families’ life activity and legal protection. A lot of things are made by members of the organization in the field of treatment, health improvement and physical development, pedagogical and professional education; in the field of development of working and everyday skills, receiving the higher and secondary education of children and youth with health problems. The organization carries out the great work on social support of families in the field of youth and family policy. There are examples when organization’s youth study in higher educational institutions of Republic Karelia and Russia. Children and youth of the organization participate in republican, All-Russian competitions and Paraolympic games. Since 2000 the organization has carried out eleven exit health improving camps «mother and a child », both in territory of Karelia, Russia and abroad.
KRPOPWCI «Special family» constantly takes part in the international programs, financing projects. All this helped to realize the organization’s tasks in the field of health improvement; to create the entertainment center, to publish five methodical instructions; to give a social help the families, having children with health problems.
But the experience shows that not any child can continue training for the lack of individual programs in educational institutions, because of health (retardation, being in confinement indoors, hearing disorder and sight, etc). Members of the organization consider that the right to education is connected with the right to life. The recognition of the right to life excludes the bottom border of educational abilities. But today the term "not trainee", is still used for our children and young people contrary to the International and Russian legislation. So they lose an opportunity to receive education in the state educational establishments.
To help such children and young people to adapt to a civil society and to show the society and the state that any invalid has a right to education, parents with the help of projects in 2004 on the basis of the organization created the Center with the complex program "Serdzevina". In our opinion it has shown a high productivity. In the Center children and young people could receive educational, social services; get working, everyday, intellectual skills. The environment for physical development and health improvement is created. The center "Serdzevina" united young people from 15 till 27 years. There children met friends, found interesting dialogue with the teachers involved with experts, parents, volunteers. They learned to be independent in everyday situations, remaining kind, trustful and valid. Young people got practical skills of positive interaction, learned to express correctly ideas, feelings and emotions.
On the basis of the organization clubs for the young families having children with health problems and for people on pension are opened. Additional social services are constantly given the population with the low material income.
There are a lot of positive results and achievements in organization’ activity, but in practice (KRPOPWCI) «Special family » constantly faces with a problem of children’s training and young people with the limited abilities in educational establishments of the general type.
The problem of inclusive education of children with limited abilities is really a social problem. However today it’s not realized as a public need, «because provoking conditions and behavior of people don’t reached the level on which it becomes obvious ». The organization «Special family» together with Petrozavodsk State University investigated in the field of integration of children and youth with the limited abilities in the process of continuing inclusive education (a kindergarten - school - technical school - university).
Due to realization of the project the actual direction was brought out - quality’s rise and improvements of access to educational services and services in the area ICT of children and young people with physical disability in Karelia and necessity of interaction of public organizations, educational establishments and parents in the field of accessible education.
KRPOPWCI’s members «Special family» constantly expand frameworks of their activity, look for innovational methods and approaches to help children, youth with the limited abilities; to adapt them to a civil society; to improve their life quality. But a lot of problems cannot be solved without financing. In fact till now public organizations exist only on grants. Organization’s members consider old methods don’t work any more. It’s necessary to find new forms of financing and to involve investments. It’s important to attract attention of authorities and business to problems of young invalids.
We parents have an opinion that invalids are not an attractive sphere for business; therefore it does not want to help this group of our society.
The organization has no staffers and all work is made by voluntaries, therefore it is difficult for us to realize the opportunities and plans to help our children – invalids to become self-governing citizens of our country.
