Maybe law makers have a right to read the bills before having to vote on them? Germany's highest court is going to have a look at that.

Re 🇪🇺 should be focused on protecting and empowering minorities, rather than placing obstacles in the path of their representation. I urge the initiators to reconsider and withdraw their proposal. Let us not revive the anti 🇭🇺 sentiments of the 90s in 🇷🇴 politics. #MinorityRights

RT @DailiesMidas: It is with sadness that we have received the news of Josep Maria Espina's death. With him, we have lost a great journalist, author and promoter of #Catalan culture. He received the Otto von Habsburg Prize in 2017 for his efforts and contribution to #MinorityRights.

#introduction I’m an associate professor of #PoliticalScience at #SUNY #Oneonta, with ongoing research projects on local contexts for #migrant #integration / #incorporation in #rural areas, #climatemigration in the Andes, and immigration’s influence on #religious #minorityrights.

"In the years just after the Civil War, as women began joining the legal profession, only a handful of spirited applicants succeeded in breaking through the cultural barriers that made it difficult to train for the law or win bar membership [...] The hostility toward women with professional aspirations was so great that only the very brave pushed ahead."

Last week I attended the UN Forum on Minority Issues, where there were growing calls for a new international minority rights treaty - some reflections and my intervention https://minority-rights.com/2022/12/06/what-next-30-years-after-the-adoption-of-the-un-declaration-on-the-rights-of-minorities/ #minorityrights #minorityissues #un #minorities

The thirtieth anniversary of the #european Charter for Regional or Minority #languages coincides with the 20th anniversary of the recognition of the Cornish as a national minority under the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities and the final stages of the Identity and Language (Nortthern Ireland) Bill. Progress on #minorityrights and #minorityissues is just so slow!

I love the idea of a different platform, cutting through all the noise. I am more of an absorber of information and a sharer of interesting links than a poster of original insights on Twitter, and hoping to use Mastadon to share more of my own thoughts. #minorities #minorityrights #minorityissues #Twittermigration
