On June 24, 1982, at the 2nd UN Special Session on Disarmament held at UN Headquarters in New York, then Mayor Takeshi Araki of Hiroshima proposed a new Program to Promote the Solidarity of Cities toward the Total Abolition of Nuclear Weapons. This proposal offered cities a way to transcend national borders and work together to press for nuclear abolition. Subsequently, the mayors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki called on mayors around the world to support this program. The Mayors for Peace is composed of cities around the world that have formally expressed support for the program Mayor Araki announced in 1982. As of December 1, 2016, membership stood at 7,196 cities in 162 countries and regions. We were registered as a NGO in Special Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council in May 1991.

Argentine Chapter Of Transparency International. Poder Ciudadano is a non-partisan and non-profit foundation that was born in 1989 as an initiative of a group of citizens concerned about the defense of civic rights in our country. From its origins the founders took into account for their integration the criterion of gender equality, diversity in political-party inclinations and social classes. But they shared a base of common values, considering that in this plurality a civic thought could be built that would engage the participants beyond the vote, setting aside differences to strengthen the true value of democracy.

The Ministry of Health (MISAU), in fulfilling its mandate to provide health services to all Mozambicans, has drawn up the Strategic Health Sector Plan (PESS) 2014-2019 with a view to “helping all Mozambicans, especially target groups vulnerable, to enjoy the best possible health, at an affordable cost. ” Despite the existence of a lot of health information available to help citizens to avoid contracting diseases as well as taking initial measures whenever symptoms arise, the segment of the population that most needs this information is often deprived of it, due to the means of communication. communication used. Email / Internet campaigns rarely reach hidden areas, and many citizens remain without the means to buy televisions or enough energy to power this device. It is for these reasons that we found a possible solution on mobile phones, and in particular the Educational Health Information Platform (PENSA).
