1:34 pm
people are brought here and provisionally housing hotels for 3 weeks. all these they're told to leave. but our emergency shelters are overcrowded. it's absurd to send people away from paris because emergency accommodations are overcrowded when there are no free places here in the provinces, either. the situation has completely overwhelmed the city. the way. yeah. when they show a lot of these, here you see some migrant says setup scan under the are cables. yeah, they started setting one up, but i don't want any cam. see it, use it go. so i have the spot cleared. no, so nobody knows where they went after that show or the jump, a movie or a single thoughts. the french government says hundreds of feedback. you weighs homeless. people and my grants are being offered long term accommodation in only all and other cities. but 8 organizations are critical
1:35 pm
showing that you do the best, you know, if you're going to move them from parents to already on, for the games medium should at least offer them the support they need to be the best ones to the best at least saline will soon have to move out of the hotel. he doesn't know where to go after that. so i'm not doing well. he was. yeah. and is what can i do now that i have to get out of it in the hotel? employee told me today that i have to leave the school. the government doesn't seem to be paying for me anymore. so do i go back to paris now he's going back to us water and harris, or maybe here see ali saline hasn't been banned from returning to paris. he is interested in the games, whether he's in only all or the french capital, but he's not really in the mood to celebrate. and he's less than impressed by the organizing committees picture perfect commercials the to,
1:36 pm
for most of us school is a place you go to in order to get an education. but in more and more european countries, homeschooling is growing in popularity. for example, in belgium, where a school attendance is not compulsory in the port city of antwerp, we need oscar, who has never seen the inside of a classroom, has one and only teacher is his mother and she always makes sure that they stay on schedule. let's see what i mean. how do you say that in that? so you also say have 7. yeah. you say it's how fate, how it's very confusing. monday morning and class begins at the dining table in antwerp. the fine hope family living room is also a classroom for otis and his brother oscar. the 2 don't go to school. what are
1:37 pm
taught at home by their mother. oscar is practicing french. homeschooling is permitted in belgium and it's becoming increasingly popular. is it more choice over here? when you do homeschooling, you can watch, like if you it, for example, if you're, if you're done early, you can move on to a different subject. and so you're so you don't have to so you can go to something else. and earlier, he's grown up bilingual english and in the afternoon he's off to a theater group in the city at school. you know, like always with other people that sometimes that can be better. well, i feel like you, we also have a lot of friends like every evening we go to a some class at the like music class, i suppose that his mother prepares the lesson. it's an arduous task. let's see if on hoke explains that she began doing this while the family lived in the us
1:38 pm
and all my kids in the regular school year. because sometimes that there are 25 or 30 get somebody in the class. i think that's too much. and yeah, because of the fact that they are finding well, i think they need some extra attention sometimes for writing and reading. and maybe they wouldn't get that in a school to demonstrate that they are keeping up with a school curriculum. oh, as an oscar regularly have to take official exams, the number of home school pupils in belgium is growing. some children simply don't do well in schools. some families move frequently for others. religious considerations play a role. corona or lack of teachers. there can be numerous reasons as education research or pedro de paragraph explains what we've seen for the past the time is that one out of what because they are also being controlled. want
1:39 pm
to run out of fear. families get to message your not doing it well enough. your who education homeschooling is not up to the level. it's not always just about the teaching quality. he says. but also that some children wind up with too little social content in belgium. regional politics is responsible for education, conservative flemish m p loose, and rome is calling for even more homeschooling controls to protect children and society. say look oh, there's the there also parents who cost for homeschooling back. so because it allows them to teach certain audiological views that are not compatible with human rights or children's rights act. and that is certainly a threat. and, and they'll say no to look. but today him, she proposes a flexible model in which families who receive and negative assessments are checked more frequently.
1:40 pm
and just families apart from quality of learning in exams. what does it really like to live under the same roof as your teacher? yeah, sometimes i do sometimes it's a bit hard especially, you know, because it's you mom and you're just there the whole time. so is like, but i mean you, you learn to live with it. it's otherwise, homeschooling isn't a big deal for him. his mother made the decision consciously knowing it's an unpaid full time job, but it's key to their family life. the world's largest island is greenland, although it's geographically closer to north america. it is actually a danish autonomous terry tree. until 1979 greenland was ruled by denmark and via
1:41 pm
to better than grew up on the island. and just like a majority of the people there she is in with unfortunately, the indigenous population still face of social challenges related to poverty and racial discrimination. this year, henrietta beth hudson and other indigenous women have taken the danish government to court, demanding justice and compensation. and a scandal that shook the whole nation in the greenland in the late 19 sixty's. the indigenous anyway were gaining ever more rights. but we're still subject to the authority of the colonial rule or denmark tend to, we have to battle some was for us to learn danish in school as well as to submit to danish doctors. one of them did something to her that hans are to this day. when she was just 13 years old. all the girls in her class were told to report to the
1:42 pm
public health officer, the l. p as soon as hi. so we were to be fitted with our u. d. some call to some of the girls were already crying in the waiting room after this. we were just so young so and had never had anything to do with boys. i lived in the new deeds they inserted were big, actually intended for adult swim, or mileage store, smell at the at i remember the terrible pain. oh, and the hot and none of the grown ups paid any attention to him. oh, how i'm so former, a peasant for phone bill to son is just one of thousands of green landers who had birth control forced upon them. and the 19 sixties and seventies the danish authorities intended to slow population growth on the island. the compulsory contraceptive program was put to a hold get some of the women were never able to bear children. virtual son who now
1:43 pm
lives in denmark eventually had 2 children. but she is still haunted by her to magic experience. on the call list, we are victims of this compulsory contraceptive policy and live in denmark. we receive no psychological support of any kind from the state. if we seek help, we have to pay part of it ourselves and find that in 2022, a danish broadcast are exposed. what's come to be known as the u. d scandal. since then, nearly $150.00 affected green lenders have banded together to suit the danish state . copenhagen attorney mats palmer and has taken their case on. and so we see in no way doubts that the contraceptive program was part of a larger state policy. even have very little hard evidence remains in folding and
1:44 pm
because so and the population of dived enrollment fee of was a subsidy sets have that at silver, both the during that period and then after 4 years they coach with blue. and that's also a doctor less to come to decision big success. i don't think that the doctor would put in the medical file that he inserted this i rudy in the 12 year old girl with a crying emmy being held by to uh the for the dollars after the revelations. denmark's government initiated an investigation? is greenland politicians don't only see it as a matter of compensation. they classify it as a brazen violation of human rights. so this is something that we want it the government of denmark to focus on and the research that they were doing. and they didn't want to to that at 1st, at least. so this is something that we're going to add on to the research that is already being done. we tried several times to secure
1:45 pm
a statement from the danish health minister or other representatives of the governing coalition. but nobody appears willing to talk about the u. d scandals. henrietta beatrice then finds comfort and support among copenhagen's own re lender community the here she meets with other affected members of her generation wherever they live. now, most victims of the contraceptive policy are reluctant to talk about their experiences, henrietta beth as soon as demanding more than a simple admission by the danish government's own scheme for to be kept your i want an official apology means that would show respect for me from the danish side, these are the case against the danish stage can start before the year is out. and henrietta beth doesn't intend to be sitting in the courtroom of the cars. not just the means of getting from point
1:46 pm

1:47 pm
me bundle off. or if you don't make that ramos population density is nearly 12000 feet per square kilometers. but i mean, other european cities average 3 to 6000, which in case this means far more cars for 1000 inhabitants in toronto, then in other europeans and in all the saw, it's a cancer. and she said they were a piano. many older models still apply the streets. officially, the emission standards prohibit the import of older vehicles, but the reality is different. this dealer on the outskirts of to down to cells, cars imported from germany, italy, and switzerland, including this classic this is a 1985 mercedes, 500 se. oh, is it? the car is 39 years old, and technically cannot legally be reasonable. such as old cars are considered the
1:48 pm
main cause of the big air pollution environmental as their calling for more governmental action. now we need systematic inspection use and more rigorous government policy with an inspection system that really works for this includes penalties for breaching standard, but that alone would not solve the problem. oh old car emissions have to be tested . old cars are usually driven out in the country side. here. drivers don't seem to faces many checks for valid inspection stickers. his car has over 250000 kilometers on the clock. a farmer vari receipts bought it 14 years ago for the equivalent of 800 euros. he says, an inspection sticker isn't needed for driving in the village in the field. we give her a pass the door on. the roads here are bad. shots is on. i'm lucky,
1:49 pm
i can transport everything i need to with my mercedes, just in there are no repair bills to speak of. it makes my day to day work on the farm easier. you know. i bought this car in 2010 and in 14 years it's never letting me down as an accomplice from the fact that like the mocking the importance of the automobile and albanian daily life is historical. in 1994, a strong carts were still seen on the streets, but few cars, ruler and their hotel had for business private car ownership out of fear of invasion. the roads were poorly maintained on purpose. after the end of communism, albanians wanted cars that could handle potholes. now, congress are everywhere. the government claims to have already done
1:50 pm
a great deal to reduce traffic and air pollution. a new inspection center has been built into it on. okay, what's the impact on that? the, the euro for standard applies to use the closer and the euro, 5 or 6 standard to new vehicles registered here for the 1st time they were up is they were just course need. they need the method. of course, we just need to verify what the farmer road transport director admits that the rules are not enforced across the board of the roughly 800000 registered cars. not all of them comply with the law and introduce you guys want to introduce anything. we didn't see that you course produced. we receive tips and reports every day. the police tell us they stop drivers without insurance, without an inspection sticker, and without taxes. and i estimate 10 to 15 percent, but i can't say for sure i can see if you can send the success of say the, the fact of the matter is that it's impossible to catch everyone who breaks the law on that door to that think using that one that's essentially a step by more than you can throw that will go, it's copied,
1:51 pm
you filled the drivers in the countryside are glad the police aren't everywhere. farmer barry wants some used parts to keep his car running for years to come fiscal. hi sammy, how are you and the family, and i need some replacement parts for my car. so how many is the head of the family business? she makes ends meet. stocking everything you could need and the countryside roman book hills about the problem here. now pena is the poor fuel quality. it's not the old cars that are polluting the air and well, no way. i know what i'm talking about on my ago. but i, i love my car. but sammy knows that the era of vintage cars is coming to an end in albania. he hopes to stay in business as long as he can. will now introduce you to
