I have had again a long time not heard from me, was there in the last few weeks off. A trip to a English filmmaker to La Pajuela, a book presentation of Biblotecas Rurales de Cajamarca ("Bauer library"), the pre-premiere of the documentary "Operacion Diablo" and last week I was traveling in La Oroya and Cerro de Pasco. La Oroya is a hit with Chernobyl mentioned when it comes to pollution in this city illustrate and Cerro de Pasco is characterized by a huge hole in the place where once the old town was. But to be more in the next post!
Last week got the current world-house volunteers a Eilmail the organization that could falter due to increased job performance so far by the proper care and rapid communication with the headquarters in Bielefeld in the near future a little. The reason for this is a nasty surprise, all sending the BMZ received. Without prior consultation with the planning and executive bodies of "Weltwärts", namely the sending organizations, the Ministry decided a severe budget cut. The sending organizations met this release unexpectedly and in full preparation for the next phase of the voluntary service program to use. Contrary to the main budget planning now decided, the BMZ budget of "weltwärts" cut to the current year from 40 to 29 million €.
meets with this quick shot of the BMZ is 3 supporting actors of the "weltwärts" program the core. The sending organizations, which are assumed that the promised budget fixed for the first 3 sample years, must now for the long term reschedule the planned projects and some may even give up entirely. In addition, the application period is far from complete, the pledges of the new volunteers are out and preparing seminars have been running. If the Entsendeorgas want to keep their commitments to all the confirmed voluntary courses, they must do so with substantial advance payments. One such unplanned financial burden for most of donation-based non-profit organizations is an existential tour de force, can think of any.
Second, it makes the partner organizations in partner countries. They are also involved in the planning phase and expect the promised specifications. In some projects, a specially developed on the involvement of volunteers coordinated work package, which builds on the work of the new volunteers that of the previous one. These ongoing projects are also at risk. For new project areas to prepare to run in part for more than a year. Ultimately, the image may also be loss of the German partner (BMZ and organizations) are not ignored when blown off on long-promised and planned projects once before it starts.
Finally, the Ministry is with his haphazard action savings authoritatively in the life plans of hundreds of young volunteers. Budget cuts mean probably that many already committed volunteers are again canceled. Half a year of application and preparation time would be made for free and the expectations and objectives for the coming year, nothing.
Development Minister Dirk Niebel, in Landserchic traveling around the world (in this case Vietnam Source: Photo Library) Not only is it communicative incompetence of the BMZ, the civil society service providers of the state "weltwärts" program without prior consultation to present a fait accompli. There is also a political naughtiness the long-term planning of the sending and partner organizations to torpedo Sun Since "weltwärts" neither primary economic objectives pursued even with the Bundeswehr cooperates , the BMZ-chief Dirk Niebel of the FDP's education, environmental and human rights work is the "weltwärts" economic distance to volunteers well and unmilitary to continue to have be encouraged to pledge criteria?
