The Carmichael Centre for Voluntary Groups is being forced to close on 9 July 2004. The Dublin-based centre is home to 45 small voluntary and community groups which provide services to 10% of the Irish population nationwide. All of these groups will be evicted on 9 July 2004. The loss of Carmichael Centre’s essential enabling role for all these groups will have serious knock-on effects for the community and voluntary sector nationwide. read full story / add a comment

Úachtarán na hEireann, Mary McAleese, has condemned recent racist incidents in Belfast. Speaking at an event in Belfast, she said that the Chinese community had honoured Ireland by choosing to make the Island their home, and condemned recent attacks on homes and businesses. The event, a breakthrough in community relations work in Belfast, was also attended by Belfast's new Lord Mayor, Tom Eakin, of the cross-community Alliance Party. Some felt that the event was somewhat undermined by the joke made by the President that if the Chinese hadn't brought their wonderful cuisine to Ireland her children would have died of starvation a long time ago. Despite this apparently patronising gaffe, the President was well received and the event was hailed as a success by all involved. read full story / add a comment

"UNCTAD´s Least Developed Countries Report 2004, provides the first comprehensive empirical analysis of the relationship between trade and poverty in the least developed countries (LDCs). The Report shows that export growth was rarely associated with sustained poverty reduction in the LDCs during the 1990s, even though trade contributes a high proportion of their GDP and most of them have undertaken far-reaching trade liberalization. Persistent mass poverty in the LDCs is not due, according to the Report, to lack of integration into the global economy, nor to insufficient trade liberalization, but is rather the consequence of underdevelopment. In fact, the evidence indicates that the extensive trade liberalization has thus far not resulted in a form of integration that will support sustained and inclusive development. Moreover, trade liberalization has actually worsened the trade balance in LDCs." read full story / add a comment
