tragedy. this is not liberation at all this is not the kind of freedom that we want . how did we become a great way to islamist terror. sorry governor morsi has. an exclusive report from a destroyed city in. the philippines the sounds of fire starts april eleventh on d w. welcome to global three thousand today we consider the use of fire in agriculture in belize we find out about alternatives to burning crop residues.

ever heard of pangolins that scales a wealth of fortune which makes them extremely sought after by poachers. and in paris we hear about how forced sterilization has shattered the lives of hundreds of thousands of women. contraceptives come in all kinds of shapes and sizes but the most common method of old is sterilization this involves undergoing a procedure to be made in first tile. according to a two thousand and fifteen study nineteen percent of all women in the world was sterilized most of them in developing countries in india the number was thought to be thirty nine percent that's all well and good as long as the women chose the option for themselves but shockingly that tends to be the exception rather than the rule around twenty years ago in an effort to tackle poverty the peruvian government had more than three hundred thousand women. forcibly sterilized the results

lifelong pain and suffering. it's the start of another day for duties and you go as the forty eight year old makes breakfast for her husband daughter and grandchild she struggles with pain in her knees her hips and her back . it's been the same every day for the past twenty years ever since she was sterilised in an operation performed against her will. was tied to the bed and my legs to. last about that i got there pressed my head against the mattress and injected me with an anaesthetic. oh i mean well they carried on talking to me i lost consciousness although not completely all of them is that i look at all i could feel when there was sewing me up after the operation and those that i thought that meant that not only but it was very painful.

only in. twenty years ago forced sterilizations were widespread practice here in the groovy and d.s. the area is poor and largely dependent on agriculture. since the operation routine has been unable to work in the fields without pain as a result she's rarely able to help her family. experience is no isolated case up to three hundred thousand indigenous peruvian women are thought to have been forcibly sterilized today she's meeting with other local women who are willing to speak out about their experiences. yet been the doctor said you already have four children how many more do you want get yourself sterilized otherwise you're no different from a dog or a pig in another sequel than him and the notion. that. has money to persuade the

women to open up about the problems they're experiencing. since the sterilization everything hurts from my knees right up to the scar which got infected. for years the forced procedures were to boost subject here in this traditional community but more and more women are no longer willing to keep quiet about the problems on the impact on their families. my husband wanted to beat me right there in front of the nurse he cried out what are you doing here. he thought i was there voluntarily. i don't even want to think about how fate dealt me such a hand. there is this arctic since that day life with my husband has never been the same. it was usually nurses and police officers who came into the villages and took the catch of our women away they were brought to this local health center they say the same doctor who sterilize them

washington ortiz is still working here twenty years later but we're unable to find him either here or in the private clinic next door where he's also set to work. we get turned away and all written requests for an interview go unanswered a short while later takes us to see a woman who has had an especially rough time serafin a kiss was so heavily in the set eyes that she was initially thought to be dead. my family was told that someone in the mortuary had been resuscitated and was calling for them. i was dead but i was fortunate enough to come back to life. that's terrible experience took place here at the old battle rayna hospital in ca school. a place meant to be dedicated to preserving life we meet

a nurse who is willing to talk to us about what happened libya pinout is says the sterilizations were carried out systematically on the orders of the peruvian government where i would have these but it was a directive from the health ministry that is so hospitals like us were required to carry out the procedures given that. the directive applied here in cusco and in many other towns with a majority indigenous population libya tells us it was a campaign directed against the indigenous catch was that when i met they had to fulfill a monthly quota you know otherwise we'd have been fired as it was so extreme that nurses were even getting themselves sterilized to meet the quota. who gave the orders we ask. the health ministry in lima it came from the government of president fujimori of people. throughout the one nine hundred ninety s.

peru was governed by alberto fujimori who was later jailed for human rights abuses his family planning program was officially aimed at fighting poverty but not only were most of the sterilizations carried out without the women's consent the program was also deeply racist targeting only the indigenous minority. now protests are growing more and more people say it's time for justice to finally be served. looters and he has suffered for twenty years from complications linked to the operation but to this day she's never received any compensation. but it will be over able of we were fairly well my husband and i can no longer be happy because the small amount of money that we earn always has to be our last formal education so. i don't book and also i can't work in the fields anymore that's all just so horrible i got that amazing vogue of evasive measure where much. of.

a fate shared by many of the women here high up in the andes. and to this day the peruvian state refuses to accept responsibility for the grave injustice suffered. repression and discrimination are part of life for many women around the world on our new facebook channel d.w. women you'll find stories about those taking a stand and inspiring others to do the saying d.w. women gives a voice to the women of all worlds. what more could tourists on safari wish for than to see wild animals in their natural habitat sadly however widespread poaching is threatening some species with extinction. one african elephant is killed every fifteen minutes on average because their tusks are worth big bucks that adds up to thirty five

thousand grey giants every year but the most sought after animal is the pangolin scaly anteater a shy creature that's rosendahl planet for millennia up to one hundred thousand of them are killed every year they're found in southern asia or in sub-saharan africa and animal rights activists in south africa are trying to save as many as they can . walk into legs have their own protective armor and require armed guards. on watch every time animal keepers take or or the penguin out for. them because there's a high risk of her being abducted her skills are with fifteen thousand euros on the black market. or it was just a juvenile when she was rescued from poachers. we have

many security measures in place which we don't make known to the public so overlapping security helps us and the unpredictability of rehab of penguins we are constantly changing so it's unlikely. some days they're well some days they're not well so there's no set pattern as to when we are out in the bush or where we're going. sometimes police seize illegally trafficked pangolin scales like here in malaysia hundreds of pangolins died to pull the contents of the sax many believe the scales can help against cancer or promote a better sex life but they're actually made of the same substance as fingernails. pangolin meat is also highly sought after in parts of africa and china a bowl of soup served with a baby penguin console three thousand euros. the animals that naturally rogers century were all rescued from the hands of poachers some of the penguins need

medical help when they arrive because they haven't eaten in weeks poachers don't kill penguins immediately preferring to trade life specimens. some animals are still so young that natalie rogers has to feed them milk from a syringe. or a needs to gain weight to every day she gets put on the scales. today she's four point eight kilos since she arrived at the animal sanctuary five months ago she's gained about a kilo. one mall and she can be released. there's still so much still to learn on them. on her weight but she. usually still be in the mothers milk dependent still within the mothers before they became efficient enough to find their own food and find their own territory. what

happened to. a team of rangers is dedicated specifically to tracking down the poachers cleanse homes and it's in charge of the group he says antelope tracks but he says tracks left by penguins are hard to find in the bush over the course of many years observing animals in the wild he and his colleagues have only ever seen one. if you look at the bottom of it they've got a very similar foot to an elephant so it's like very soft and got lines in it and we walk on a two back feet so most of the time to find the sign of the penguin is when it's walking the tail leave marks in the road like this as a team and goes on and it's extremely difficult to see this work. glen thompson and his rangers know how rhino poachers hunt but they can only guess how illegal hunters tracked down the hidden penguins probably suggest that the probably using dogs to locate the penguin during the day because penguins move around in the

bar is during the day so we suspect it's a lot of dog poaching so i mean if they saw it they'd pick it up patrols up into a ball then that's more of. thompson and his team have repeatedly confiscated illegal goods and large animals they've also arrested a number of poachers although they've probably caught only a fraction of the criminal gangs that operate here. the rangers are dependent on tips from local residents so we'll get information that the someone in the village wanted and soon as we get that information and we can verify. and we'll set up a sting operation with a c.p.s. and then we'll go in and go affect the race collect the penguin and take it for medical treatment and medical assessment. these coaches stop to refuel. the pangolin was still alive and lying in the area the rangers had received a tip from a witness. a rescue mission like this is what saved and gave her new temporary

home. now she can at least go for walks back in the bush at the moment still accompanied by her own personal bodyguard. protecting our planet's wildlife and climate requires a lot of dedication global ideas series testifies to that this week we take a look at the effects of slash and burn agriculture a method practiced by up to five hundred million small holders worldwide and one with devastating consequences for the environment all reporter kathy had traveled to believes to meet with activists in the tornado region who are promoting more environmentally friendly alternatives. april and may are the hottest months of the year in belize. it's a time when many farmers set fire to

a tradition that dates back to ancient times. it destroys biodiversity destroy the soil it can destroy crops communities it just saw destructive it's not. slash and burn the fires actually make the earth fertile for a short time because plant remains fall to the ground and mix with the otherwise barren soil but the fires also release huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. we've come to toledo in the south of belize the district is home to the indigenous kitschy maya who trace their roots back to the ancient maya. they've kept many of their forefathers traditions including slash and burn agriculture in the past it was more sustainable because farmers only cultivated enough land to feed their families my

ancestors. knew what it was look like nature they knew that they were one with nature but as commercialization of food. comes into the picture we start making money. food so we sacrifice things like nature and unsustainability. gustavo to k. now works for the nonprofit organization jack. the ngo is working with local farmers to introduce methods that are more sustainable for our modern times. another problem with the fires is that they often get out of control like this one which has spread to a neighboring field. our goal was not eliminate fire risk completely because it was a part of the culture on the part of a tradition what we would want is to put in place the best practice is to ensure

that we partake biodiversity farms because fires do also threaten our farms because when a fire escapes so you have no control over it you can damage communities and people's lives so alternative options are needed gustavo to can and his ngo are pursuing a number of different strategies including cocoa farming. in a protected forest area which has the right to use smallholder farmers are being told how to grow organic cocoa that gives them an income without having to damage the forest. because the cocoa plants actually need the shade of the other trees in order to grow properly. here in reserve yesterday. for example. is zero use of. chemicals you know.

use a fire is in control in another part of the forest outside the protected reserve there are plans to start growing corn and beans instead of slash and burn agriculture even got trees are making the ground here for tile. from orlando cool planted them three years ago the tops of the trees now form a canopy overhead and the leaves and seeds that will fall into the ground have created a nitrogen rich soil as fertile as after a fire you can even find the mulch blocks for feet. we had restored. this is more for you can see with help from jack jay he plans to sow the first maize seeds in a few weeks but first he'll cut off the tops of the trees to allow more light for the plants the trees will grow back again later when he used to slash and burn the

land would lie waste for years after the harvest and now wildlife is starting to return. first i don't even see anymore birds are all even rabbits and even there there was a visit thirty i did there was a deer here. closer because if i was going to going to do burning all the smoke or did the fire going to cheese sandwich. if there was are afraid of fire so they're going to start the wrong. gustavo take a nice hoping to convince more farmers of the benefits of the sustainable farming methods he says it's obvious that things need to change here another piece of forest has just been burned to the ground. but. of course i do feel saddened when i look at it but i'll saw feel proud because it shows that if i don't do it and if my organization don't doesn't do it if my colleagues are good

then who is going to do it so it gives me a sense of pride to know that we are doing the right thing. what's the secret to a successful marriage. how to married couples remain happy together well into old age. it's not always easy. especially for couples whose faith prohibits them from living together before the wedding in these cases premarital counseling can be worth its weight in gold. to current met are getting married and they've bought this apartment but they've no plans to live in it yet. two can ometer strict muslims and that means they can't live together before being married they'll move in after the wedding if it's ready by them right now there's still plenty to do. our family if you

don't we're into a lot of pressure we have to see what's been done and what hasn't. for them a lot of there's always something new to deal with the primary don't have much time but all of a sudden you. took on ahmed are not quite sure what to expect from. their life together so they're also keen to get some marriage guidance before the wedding they're turning to the dar ifta a government institute that provides guidance for many sunni muslims it's also known as the fatwa house as it's responsible for drafting religious edicts as well the couple is interested to see what the classes will be like at the very conservative institution. saudi shaykh amara is something of a star among the clerics here today's giving advice to young people who want to marry with a mixture of the ology knowledge of human nature and a good dose of humor. neither of us is what i have a question. of the how who is more able to deal with suffering a man or

a woman maybe want to raise your hand if you think it's a man. if. only the men are raising their hands not a single woman not. so much fun at the venerable fatwah house is unusual a theologian who not only preaches but gives advice without talking down to people and he even hands over to a woman to a non theologian russia is a couples therapist incorporating psychology at this official center for religious instruction is an unusual approach for the muslim world. calkins what i didn't know is that happiness is a decision if i want to hurt me i have to make a decision and accept the challenges of. the courses are also designed to help couples figure out if they're even well matched. that led some to no longer want to get married. but today shake ammar is on his way to visit

a couple for whom it worked out. mahmoud was in shaker aamer is marriage counseling class with his now wife ameena. they've been married for nine months now and they have a small far. arm together. or wants to know what they thought was the main thing they learned in his class and. that is when. i learned in the class that i can't just assume certain things why is a good for example that the man will be german and the woman us to be submissive isn't. about oppression instead it's more about understanding had his mother failed. to accept that the other person has a different opinion and thinks differently makes life easier. but shake armors

approach doesn't go over well with everyone an attitude of acceptance towards those who think differently whether women christians or foreigners many orthodox muslims see this as a betrayal of islam but the shaykh says the fat white house tries to keep an open mind even when it comes to science that was unthinkable for a long time. sociology and psychology are deeply rooted in religion and in religion itself there are three things that are important you have to understand the text understand the religious values and know how to apply them in the real world. without the sciences we can't grasp reality or apply religion to reality the. two can ahmed still can't believe it the training schedule at the daraa lifter includes not only sex education and family planning but also interior design. of us if we want to put everything that they tell us

into practice what. i think it's very good. religious and spiritual aspects are very important. furnishing your home. i know that on the board of a good little book the two head to the actually go furniture store known for its straightforward clear designs. here they meet with interior designer jasmine from the fatah or house jasmine encourages them to break with the arabesque tradition in favor of more modern designs. for took on ahmed this is a whole new way of thinking. there are two sides to married life and it's good that we're dealing with both the religious and the secular i thought it would be all about religion which i'm very interested in because in my view that's more important but i think it's good that they brought the two topics together the

particles that are as they prepare for married life took on ahmed are learning that it's all a matter of finding the right balance frank surprisingly to cairo's normally very conservative fatwa house. and that's all from us this week but don't forget we love hearing from you send us an e-mail to global strace thousand at v.w. dot com and check us out on facebook d.w. women see you next week.
