Nouria Benghebrit a annoncé, dans une déclaration faite au quotidien francophone El Watan en marge des visites d’inspection et de contrôle qu’elle effectue dans les centres d’examen, qu’une étude est en cours pour réformer l’examen du Baccalauréat l’année prochaine «Nous attendons que la commission constituée autour du projet de réforme du baccalauréat nous remette son rapport. Nous sommes persuadés que l’année prochaine, il y aura un autre format du baccalauréat. ».
La réforme de cet examen très important pour les élèves viendra s’ajouter aux mesures prises dans le cadre de l’amélioration de la qualité de l’enseignement. Mme Benghebrit estime qu’elle a rencontré «l’adhésion de toute la société» autour de ce projet. «Les parents sont attentifs. Aujourd’hui, le produit de l’école n’agrée pas tout le monde
La principale critique que font la société et les parents d’élèves est que l’école est devenue une machine à apprendre qui entraîne des conflits, y compris dans la maison familiale, les parents étant dans l’obligation d’aider leurs enfants dans ce travail de mémorisation qui demande beaucoup de temps.
Ce message, nous l’avons entendu et bien compris, c’est pourquoi il y aura un nouveau système d’évaluation qui ne fait pas la part belle uniquement à la compétence de mémorisation, mais qui donne la place qu’il faut aux auteurs algériens et détermine la dimension de l’algérianité. Je ne pense pas qu’il y ait un seul Algérien aujourd’hui qui s’élève contre cette réforme»
Une maman indienne a donné naissance le 23 mai dernier à une petite fille qui pourrait être reconnue comme étant la plus lourde au monde. Le bébé, qui pèse près de 7 kilos, se porte bien.
« En 25 ans d’expérience, je n’ai jamais vu un bébé aussi grand. C’est un miracle », a déclaré Venkatesh Raju, le médecin responsable de la clinique locale. Et on comprend sa sidération : la petite fille mise au monde par césarienne le 23 mai dernier en Inde avait un poids de naissance de 6,8 kilos. Un record !
Il pourrait s’agir de la petite fille la plus lourde au monde. Le bébé le plus lourd au monde est un garçon né en Italie en 1995 avec un poids de 10,2 kilos, selon le Guinness World Records.

La maman souffrait de diabète pendant sa grossesseIl faut dire que la maman, âgée de 19 ans, pesait 94 kilos au terme de sa grossesse et souffrait de diabète. Or, cette pathologie peut entraîner chez le futur bébé un poids anormalement élevé, généralement supérieur à 4 kilos.
D’autres complications peuvent survenir chez l’enfant. Heureusement, la petite Indienne se porte bien : elle ne souffre d’aucun problème de santé, pouvant être lié au diabète de sa maman, comme une hypoglycémie.
Il arrive que, après deux trimestres de grossesse, certaines femmes développent un diabète appelé « diabète gestationnel ». C’est pourquoi un dépistage systématique est réalisé chez les femmes enceintes à risque, à savoir :
ASTANA, 31 May 2016 – Expressing a strong belief in the role of inter-parliamentary diplomacy and dialogue, the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly’s Special Representative for Central and Eastern Asia, Austrian parliamentarian Christine Muttonen, today called for greater unity and co-operation across the OSCE area in countering violent extremism.
Speaking at the “Religions against Terrorism” conference taking place in Astana, Muttonen noted that the OSCE PA has become an important platform for supporting inter-religious dialogue, and stressed that promoting understanding and tolerance between religions is an essential component of the overall work of the OSCE.
“Today our co-operation is more important than ever,” she said. “In a time when groups of violent extremists try to misuse religious beliefs to justify their terrorist attacks, when they try to divide our countries and societies along religious lines, when young people hope to find solutions to their social and economic problems within extremism and violence, when competing agendas and hostile rhetoric often threaten to replace productive dialogue and co-operation among our participating States, in such a time it becomes quite obvious: The level of peace, freedom and stability that we have achieved within the OSCE area cannot be taken for granted.”
“We constantly need to stand up for it and maintain it,” she added, “if we don’t want to lose it again.” In this regard, she stressed the importance of unity in countering violent extremism, as well as respect for diversity, noting that the OSCE has appointed three personal representatives dedicated to inter-faith issues such as discrimination, intolerance and anti-Semitism. The OSCE PA also has a Special Representative on Anti-Semitism, Racism and Intolerance, Senator Benjamin Cardin of the United States.
Muttonen’s participation in the conference today was part of a week-long visit to Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan she is undertaking along with OSCE PA Secretary General Roberto Montella, which kicked off Monday with a series of high-level talks. Meetings were held with Chairman of the Senate of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, Chairman of the Majilis of Kazakhstan Baktykozha Izmukhambetov, Foreign Minister Erlan Idrissov, and with officials at the OSCE Programme Office in Astana.
Discussions largely focused on the upcoming Annual Session in Tbilisi, Georgia, the constructive role of Kazakhstan’s delegation within the Assembly, and the important work being done by the OSCE Programme Office. Other topics included Kazakhstan’s vision of possible ways to strengthen co-operation between the OSCE PA and Shanghai Co-operation Organization, as well as avenues for promoting further engagement in Eastern Asia.
The visit to Kazakhstan will end on Wednesday in Almaty, where the Special Representative is expected to meet several prominent representatives of the country’s civil society to discuss developments related to freedom of expression and assembly. Muttonen continues her Central Asia trip with a visit to Kyrgyzstan beginning Thursday.
Muttonen, who serves as Vice-President of the OSCE PA and as Deputy Head of the Austrian delegation, was appointed the Assembly’s Special Representative for Central and Eastern Asia in January 2016. In her mandate, she is tasked, inter alia, with encouraging active participation in the PA by parliamentarians from Central Asia, as well as liaising with and supporting the work of the OSCE field missions in the region.

BISHKEK, 31 May 2016 – To mark International Children’s Day on 1 June, the Kyrgyz Interior Ministry in co-ordination with the OSCE Centre in Bishkek organized a roundtable discussion on child trafficking, bringing together 25 representatives of state agencies, parliament, international organizations, civil society and the media.
The event aimed at improving co-ordination and co-operation among all organizations dealing with child trafficking issues and working out recommendations for preventing trafficking in children.
“Without a comprehensive approach covering the legal, education and law enforcement systems, as well as guardianship authorities - government actions to prevent trafficking in children will have a limited impact,” said Silvia Pogolsa, Human Dimension Officer at the OSCE Centre in Bishkek.
The participants also discussed the current situation on crimes against children, existing state policies, necessary improvements in the legal framework, and the level of implementation of existing laws. Two human rights non-governmental organizations shared their experience and challenges in preventing child trafficking in Kyrgyzstan.
“A society with happy children and elderly can be considered as a healthy one”, said Jyldyz Akhmedgalieva, representative of the Kyrgyz Interior Ministry. “Crimes against those who are defenceless are always painful, even if these are isolated cases. We stand for the strengthening of accountability for crimes against children.”
The participants decided to have a follow-up meeting based on the results of this event, which was part of the OSCE Centre’s project on supporting a comprehensive model of prevention in addressing human trafficking in Kyrgyzstan through grassroots initiatives and multi-agency co-operation.

The meeting was followed by the first EDA Single European Sky Military Aviation Board (ESMAB) policy level meeting.
The aim of this year’s Forum was to share with a wider audience, in an informal setting, the main strategic issues with regard to Single European Sky. The meeting was chaired by General Fernando de la Cruz Caravaca of the Spanish Air Force. Mr. Umberto Rossi of the European Commission replacing Mr. Henrik Hololei, Director General Mobility and Transport, opened the discussion on the challenges and opportunities for civil-military cooperation deriving from the EU Aviation Strategy and civil rulemaking activities in the framework of Single European Sky.
The Chairman of the EU Military Committee General Mikhail Kostarakos then provided the vision of the EU Chiefs of Defence on SES/SESAR in the wider context of military aviation.
Finally, Vice Admiral Ignacio Horcada focused on NATO C2 needs in the wider context of Single European Sky. The discussion provided for relevant exchanges on innovative technologies to be considered in SESAR, taking into account global trends in civil and military aviation.
“The SMIF is a key opportunity for European air forces to come to a common understanding of key priority areas of the Single European Sky. Today also underlined the importance of a broad consultation and coordination between the European and Allied defence community as well as civil aviation. The SMIF reconfirms EDA’s commitment to the three-step consultation process with EUROCONTROL and NATO, to serve the need of Member States”, said Jorge Domecq.
The first EDA Single European Sky Military Aviation Board (ESMAB) policy level meeting then brought together representatives from the participating Member States, as well as Denmark, Norway and Switzerland, and a representative from EUMC. Experts collectively agreed on priorities with regard to the upcoming milestones for Single European Sky in the broader context of military aviation and to ensure the necessary national involvement up to the appropriate decision-making level. Concretely, experts discussed and validated among other things the SES Military Aviation Action Plan and the roadmap on Performance Based Navigation.
