News-Bangladesh Cabinet Approves Death Penalty For Rape Convicts After Nationwide Outrage.

Bangladesh’s cabinet has approved the proposal to increase the maximum punishment in rape cases to death from life imprisonment after widespread anger across the country due to a rise in sexual assaults. The in-principle approval was reportedly given at a cabinet meeting chaired by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

“Bangladesh Law Minister Anisul Huq told reporters that the proposed law stipulates that “the maximum punishment is death penalty for the sex offenders.” Bangladeshi President Abdul Hamid is expected to promulgate an ordinance, amending the Women and Children Repression Prevention Act, on October 13 to enact the increased punishment for rapists.”

Currently, capital punishment in rape cases can be sought only if the victim dies after the assault. A series of violent sexual attacks in Bangladesh triggered protests in Dhaka and other major cities, demanding strong action against perpetrators. Local women’s rights group Ain-o-Salish Kendra (ASK) said that 975 rapes, including at least 208 gang rapes, occurred between January and September. As many as 43 of the rape victims died after an aggravated assault and 12 committed suicide, the rights group says on its website.

Webinar on Gauging The Response Of International Health Law To Covid Crisis on 25 July,2020.(12P.M.)

About the Webinar:

Marwadi University and Weeramantary Centre For Peace , Justice and International Law Organises Webinar on Gauging The Response Of International Health Law To Covid Crisis.

COVID-19 has brought the debate concerning the role of international health regulations at the centre stage. While there are varied issues such as accessibility to healthcare, affordability and consolidating the operating procedures to deal with a disease, equity has emerged as one of the major concerns in recent times. The interface between law and science is another critical area where more attention is an urgent requirement. Engaging with these areas is indispensable now because the line between jurisdictional responses and international health regulations is becoming very thin.

The webinar thus seeks to explore the scenario through roping in voices from major organisations like the World Health Organisation and the Third World Network.

Date: 25th July, 2020

Time: 12 Noon

CALL FOR PAPERS FOR AN EDITED BOOK ON FISHERIES CONSERVATI O N AND T RADE IN FISHERIES: TOWARDS SUSTAINAB LE USE @ CENTER FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADE LAW , NLUO

About Edited Volume:

Centre for International Trade Law of National Law University Odisha proposes to bring out an edited book with a multidisciplinary approach on Fisheries Conservation and Trade in Fisheries: Towards Sustainable Use. Sustainable use of natural resources is very pivotal for ensuring long term prosperity and to prevent extinction of resources. Fisheries are one such natural resource which is over exploited. There is no doubt that fisheries have contributed significantly to global food security, livelihoods for many and not to mention the economy of the country. Fisheries play a crucial role in ensuring food security, employment as well as in livelihood in many countries, especially in developing countries and least developed countries. There has been a growth in seafood trade with the increased exports from the developing countries and with the advancement in storage and preservation technologies.

There is a growing interconnectedness between trade and resource conservation and the WTO can play a pivotal role in resource conservation. This has been evidenced in the WTO in United States- Import Prohibition of Certain Shrimp and Shrimp Products case. A healthy balance may be achieved if fish stocks are maintained within sustainable limits. The percentage of world marine fish stocks within biologically sustainable levels declined from 90 per cent in 1974 to 69 per cent in 2013. It is absolutely essential to achieve sustainable fishing not just for protecting the marine environment and the livelihoods which depend on fish stocks but for the World Trade Organisation as an institution itself if does not address a pressing environmental problem. Even the Goal 14 of the Sustainable Development Goals relates to ‘conserve and sustainable use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development.’ To achieve this goal, certain targets and indicators were identified and accordingly target 14.4 and target 14.6 is relevant to fisheries conservation. Thus, there is an imminent need to balance the trade needs of a country, its food security and fisheries conservation. The proposed book aims at espousing the need for such a balance.

Suggested Theme:

We invite original unpublished papers that may address one or more of the following themes:

• Fisheries Conservation and Management Practices
• Fisheries and the WTO
• Emerging trends in sustainable fishing
• Food security and fisheries conservation
• Dependency of developing countries on fisheries
• Fisheries conservation and environment

Submission Procedure:

 Academicians, scholars and trade lawyers having expertise in this area are invited to submit original unpublished paper on or before September 30, 2020 to citl@nluo.ac.in. Length of the paper should normally be between 5000 to 7000 words and an abstract of 200-300 words should also be sent along with the paper.

Submission Guidelines :

Only original papers will be accepted for publication. Revised version of papers that was published earlier will not be accepted. The book will be published by Centre for International Trade Law, NLUO. Copyright will be with Centre for International Trade Law, NLUO and the authors will have to sign a Declaration of Originality and Transfer of Copyright Agreement. With regard to the selection of papers, the decisions of Editors will be final. Submissions should be made in Microsoft Word. The paper shall be written in Times New Roman Font with size 12.

Friedrich Naumann Foundation SCHOLARSHIPS AND INTERNSHIPS

ABOUT:

The Friedrich Naumann Foundation (German: Friedrich-Naumann-Stiftung für die Freiheit) (FNF) is a German foundation for liberal politics, related to the Free Democratic Party. Established in 1958 by Theodor Heuss, the first president of the Federal Republic of Germany, it promotes individual freedom and liberalism. The Foundation follows the ideals of the Protestant theologian, Friedrich Naumann. At the beginning of the last century, Naumann was a leading German liberal thinker and politician. He resolutely backed the idea of civic education. Naumann believed that a functioning democracy needs politically informed and educated citizens. According to him, civic education is a prerequisite for political participation and thus for democracy. In this regard, the Foundation is an agent of organized liberalism. It promotes this through civic education, international political dialogues, and political counselling. The Foundation has numerous offices in Europe, Africa, America, and Asia. It also enjoys close links with Germany’s Free Democratic Party (FDP) and Liberal International (LI). While the Foundation’s activities in the field of civic education consist of seminars, conferences and publications aimed at promoting liberal values and principles, the international political dialogue program provides a discussion forum for a wide range of liberal issues. The Foundation’s counselling programs focus on candidates for political office, liberal political parties and other democratic organizations. The Friedrich Naumann Foundation, together with other foundations of different philosophical, political and ideological orientation and the non-political German National Academic Foundation, acts as an instrument for the promotion of excellence in German university education. This scholarship system is subsidised by the Federal Government of Germany. Currently, the foundation sponsors around 800 students, among those 175 PhD students (as of 2009 (German)). Awards are granted after a multi-stage selection process and are based on grades, letters of recommendation, personality and character, political and social commitment with a dedication to liberal values and interviews with staff and affiliates of the foundation. Around 20% of the scholarships are held by foreign students, studying at a university in Germany.

Use Zoom at your own risk: Privacy concerns around this viral video conferencing app

About:
Zoom video conferencing has been the talk of the town for weeks now. Due to the ongoing lockdown globally, Zoom’s popularity quickly shot up as people used it for meetings and students for online classes. However, Zoom was soon discovered to have many security loopholes.
Zoom’s CEO Eric S. Yuan even apologised for all the security issues that the video conferencing app was packed with. Zoom also announced a 90-day feature freeze to focus on security and privacy. The company also rolled out two new features aimed at making the app more secure. However, schools in the US decided to ban the video conferencing app for their online classes.
If you’re still using Zoom, these are some security issues you should be aware of.

Zoombombing:
Probably the most popular Zoom security issue is zoombombing which lets just anyone easily hack into meetings and show inappropriate content. While the meeting host can remove these users from the meetings, they often come back with new accounts. This is possible because Zoom requires meeting IDs which if out in the open becomes very vulnerable.
To fix this, Zoom actually rolled out two new features which enhances the usage of passwords for video meetings. It’s also advised that users don’t share meeting IDs in public, and keep them password protected.

End-to-end encryption:
A report by The Intercept revealed that Zoom’s meetings aren’t end-to-end encrypted as the company claimed. Zoom later clarified that it’s concept of end-to-end encryption is different from other companies. In simple terms, Zoom data is decrypted at the server which makes it possible for the company to see and hear conversations. The company however assured that it doesn’t decrypt user transmissions.

Email addresses, profile photos leak:
Users who share the same email domain will find their email addresses in a universal company folder which is visible to all the members. This doesn’t work for major email clients like Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail or Outlook. But this isn’t the case for users who use small email clients. It happened to Dutch Zoom users who could see information like email addresses, usernames and even photos of them and others in the company folder. These users reportedly used ISP-provided email addresses.

Selling user data:
Zoom’s privacy policy was revealed to have clauses which give the company full right to share user data with third-party marketers. Once this was revealed, Zoom reworked its privacy policy removing those bits and stating that it does not sell user data.
