Short Films "Lucky Dip"/Best of VideoActive: This Saturday at Filmbase, Curved Street, Dublin

From the Convergence Website: "Family, home, school, work, neighbourhood, town, city and country - our lives are filled with communities of one sort or another. These are the building blocks of our society. Doesn't it make sense that healthy communities lead to healthy societies?

For the inaugural festival of 2005, Sustainable Ireland is proud to present Convergence Seven - Building Healthy Communities : A challenging programme of events designed to educate and expand our understanding of community, and what it means to build healthy, sustainable environments. Opening with a keynote lecture by Swedish social planner and economist Torbjorn Lahti, and continuing over a four-day festival, attendees can choose from over 30 lectures, conferences, workshops, films, exhibitions, discussions and initiatives."

The _*unrecognised*_ Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus has a presidential election today.

The self-proclaimed republic was declared in 1983 in the the northern region of the island which the Turkish Army occupied back in 1974.

Turkey is the world's only country to have recognized it. The Organization of the Islamic Conference (bit bigger than the arabic league but the mint tea isn't as food) granted it observer member status under the name of "Turkish Cypriot State". read full story / add a comment

1931 the 14th of April was declared the 2nd Republic of Spain.

In its short life it brought hope, inspiration, creative solutions, the values of fraternity, liberty, equality to countless people who had lived in near feudal conditions through dictatorship.
It's "firsts" were many-
free education, free health care, over 50% of the arable land organised in autonomous collectives,
the first parliamentary representation by anarchists, the first political radio broadcasts, the first Catalan & Basque republics were declared as an associate component within it's state architecture.

All too quickly it fell, as the first victim of European fascism. read full story / add a comment
