Hello All:
Im head of a small organization that is called The United belize Advocacy movement of Belize. Right now in Belize we have cases of dicrimination in education from two christian schools in the western part of our country. We note that discrimination can be documented for close to 10 years. It seems that one of the young men "did not want any trouble." Which meant it was code for my parents dont know. It seem he feared more his parents than finishing school so when the principal confronted him about rumors heard, he simply left and walked away from his last term in 4th year. For us this was sad. The next case has been made very public around a young man named Jose Garcia. Even though Belize is party to internation conventions and convenants and our constitution protects a person from discrimination and that its a right in the preamblein the belize constitution. this young man rights is violate. Our barrier is the prefered silence by the persons expereincing the discrimination; a church state educations system which seems to think that their moral bible superceded the constitution; also the non-existence of a human rights institution. The answer is litigation, structural education to the population to improve tolerance levels.
