Turkish students facing visa rejections from Italy have begun winning legal cases, with the Lazio Regional Administrative Court ruling in favor of students who were denied educational visas. Despite acceptance from Italian universities, many students were initially rejected due to reasons like 'asylum risk' and 'financial insufficiency.' The students organized protests and took legal action, leading to some receiving their visas after court rulings. The issue has reached the Italian Parliament, with calls for resolving the visa crisis and ensuring educational rights. The Italian Foreign Ministry attributes the delays to a surge in visa applications, while the Italian Left Party highlights the risk to Italy's values and international agreements.

The concept of normality in medicine and society is critiqued for its historical and ongoing role in marginalizing individuals deemed 'abnormal.'

The article calls for a reevaluation of the term 'normal' in healthcare, advocating for a more inclusive and humane approach that recognizes the diverse humanity of all individuals.

The article discusses the ongoing negotiations and strategies surrounding the distribution of federal funds in Brazil, particularly focusing on the actions of Dino, who is working to increase transparency in the allocation of amendments. Despite the prohibition of 'secret budget' amendments by the STF, Congress continues to use strategies to obscure the beneficiaries of federal funds. A proposed law by Senator Ângelo Coronel aims to address transparency issues, but the current version lacks sufficient measures to reveal the identities of individual lawmakers involved. The government is pushing for changes to ensure greater transparency, but faces resistance from party leaders. The debate over the proposal is ongoing, with a vote expected in November.

The World Bank's private investment arm, the International Finance Corporation (IFC), is under scrutiny for refusing to directly compensate victims of sexual, physical, and financial harm at Bridge International Academies in Kenya and India. Despite pressure from civil society, U.S. senators, and an internal watchdog, the IFC's proposal to remedy the situation does not include direct payments to victims. The Compliance Advisor Ombudsman found failures in school safety and labor practices at Bridge schools, urging the IFC to compensate affected individuals. However, the IFC plans to support survivors through programs rather than direct compensation, a decision criticized by civil society groups and some World Bank board members. The IFC's approach has been labeled as inadequate, with calls for direct financial compensation continuing.
