Go for a walk during your lunch break. If you want to talk to people in the next office, don't send them an e-mail or call them. Walk over to them. Well, my office building doesn't have an elevator. So, I always take the stairs at work! Are there any exercises we can do when we're sitting at our desks? Sure. Move your feet in circles. Lift your legs up and down. Stretch your arms. That's not hard to do at all. Yes, they're very easy exercises. These are all great tips. Thanks Ray, I can't wait to try them out.

It was the capital of the Viceroyalty of Peru and the largest and most important city of South America during Spanish rule. After Peru’s Independence it became the capital of the Republic. In the present day, Lima is the political, cultural, financial and commercial center of the country. Internationally, the city is the fifth most populated city in Latin America and is among the thirty most crowded urban agglomerations in the world. The city lies mainly within the province of Lima, and extends partially to the west within the constitutional province of Callao. That's where the maritime port and Jorge Chavez International Airport are located. Info taken from http://www.munlima.gob.pe/lima Translated and adapted by José Mendoza

The Enchanted Bull Razuhuillca is a lagoon located about fifteen kilometers away from Huanta, in Ayacucho Peru. It is surrounded by three other lagoons, but Razuhuillca is the biggest of the four, making it the main lagoon in the area. Razuhuillca is on the top of a mountain at the entrance of Huanta, near a dam that supplies water for irrigation and drinking. According to the Huantine tradition, deep inside this lagoon lives a big beautiful black bull, with a golden chain. The bull is under the control of an old woman with gray hair. It is said that many years ago, the bull managed to beat the old lady and come up to the surface. Immediately, the waters of the lagoon broke the dykes. They flooded the town and devastated its population, creating great chaos. When the native people of the mountain realized what had happened, they quickly tied the bull and submerged it again into the depths of the lagoon. Since that day, people are afraid that the bull might escape from the lagoon again one day and destroy the prosperous city of Huanta, once more.

CARTA DEMOCRÁTICA INTERAMERICANA I La democracia y el sistema interamericano

Artículo 1 Los pueblos de América tienen derecho a la democracia y sus gobiernos la obligación de promoverla y defenderla. La democracia es esencial para el desarrollo social, político y económico de los pueblos de las Américas. Artículo 2 El ejercicio efectivo de la democracia representativa es la base delestado de derecho y los regímenes constitucionales de los Estados Miembros de la Organización de los Estados Americanos. La democracia representativa se refuerza y profundiza con la participación permanente, ética y responsable de la ciudadanía en un marco de legalidad conforme al respectivo orden constitucional. Artículo 3 Son elementos esenciales de la democracia representativa, entre otros, el respeto a los derechos humanos y las libertades fundamentales; el acceso al poder y su ejercicio con sujeción al estado de derecho; la celebración de elecciones periódicas, libres, justas y basadas en el sufragio universal y secreto como expresión de la soberanía del pueblo; el régimen plural de partidos y organizaciones políticas; y la separación e independencia de los poderes públicos. Artículo 4 Son componentes fundamentales del ejercicio de la democracia la transparencia de las actividades gubernamentales, la probidad, la responsabilidad de los gobiernos en la gestión pública, el respeto por los derechos sociales y la libertad de expresión y de prensa. La subordinación constitucional de todas las instituciones del Estado a la autoridad civil legalmente constituida y el respeto al estado de derecho de todas las entidades y sectores de la sociedad son igualmente fundamentales para la democracia. Artículo 5 El fortalecimiento de los partidos y de otras organizaciones políticas es prioritario para la democracia. Se deberá prestar atención especial a la problemática derivada de los altos costos de las campañas electorales y al establecimiento de un régimen equilibrado y transparente de financiación de sus actividades. Artículo 6 La participación de la ciudadanía en las decisiones relativas a su propio desarrollo es un derecho y una responsabilidad. Es también una condición necesaria para el pleno y efectivo ejercicio de la democracia. Promover y fomentar diversas formas de participación fortalece la democracia. II La democracia y los derechos humanos Artículo 7 La democracia es indispensable para el ejercicio efectivo de las libertades fundamentales y los derechos humanos, en su carácter universal, indivisible e interdependiente, consagrados en las respectivas constituciones de los Estados y en los instrumentos interamericanos e internacionales de derechos humanos. Artículo 8 Cualquier persona o grupo de personas que consideren que sus derechos humanos han sido violados pueden interponer denuncias o peticiones ante el sistema interamericano de promoción y protección de los derechos humanos conforme a los procedimientos establecidos en el mismo. Los Estados Miembros reafirman su intención de fortalecer el sistema interamericano de protección de los derechos humanos para la consolidación de la democracia en el Hemisferio. Artículo 9 La eliminación de toda forma de discriminación, especialmente la discriminación de género, étnica y racial, y de las diversas formas de intolerancia, así como la promoción y protección de los derechos humanos de los pueblos indígenas y los migrantes y el respeto a la diversidad étnica, cultural y religiosa en las Américas, contribuyen al fortalecimiento de la democracia y la participación ciudadana. Artículo 10 La promoción y el fortalecimiento de la democracia requieren el ejercicio pleno y eficaz de los derechos de los trabajadores y la aplicación de normas laborales básicas, tal como están consagradas en la Declaración de la Organización Internacional del Trabajo (OIT) relativa a los Principios y Derechos Fundamentales en el Trabajo y su Seguimiento, adoptada en 1998, así como en otras convenciones básicas afines de la OIT. La democracia se fortalece con el mejoramiento de las condiciones laborales y la calidad de vida de los trabajadores del Hemisferio. III Democracia, desarrollo integral y combate a la pobreza Artículo 11 La democracia y el desarrollo económico y social son interdependientes y se refuerzan mutuamente. Artículo 12 La pobreza, el analfabetismo y los bajos niveles de desarrollo humano son factores que inciden negativamente en la consolidación de la democracia. Los Estados Miembros de la OEA se comprometen a adoptar y ejecutar todas las acciones necesarias para la creación de empleo productivo, la reducción de la pobreza y la erradicación de la pobreza extrema, teniendo en cuenta las diferentes realidades y condiciones económicas de los países del Hemisferio. Este compromiso común frente a los problemas del desarrollo y la pobreza también destaca la importancia de mantener los equilibrios macroeconómicos y el imperativo de fortalecer la cohesión social y la democracia. Artículo 13 La promoción y observancia de los derechos económicos, sociales y culturales son consustanciales al desarrollo integral, al crecimiento económico con equidad y a la consolidación de la democracia en los Estados del Hemisferio. Artículo 14 Los Estados Miembros acuerdan examinar periódicamente las acciones adoptadas y ejecutadas por la Organización encaminadas a fomentar el diálogo, la cooperación para el desarrollo integral y el combate a la pobreza en el Hemisferio, y tomar las medidas oportunas para promover estos objetivos. Artículo 15 El ejercicio de la democracia facilita la preservación y el manejo adecuado del medio ambiente. Es esencial que los Estados del Hemisferio implementen políticas y estrategias de protección del medio ambiente, respetando los diversos tratados y convenciones, para lograr un desarrollo sostenible en beneficio de las futuras generaciones. Artículo 16 La educación es clave para fortalecer las instituciones democráticas, promover el desarrollo del potencial humano y el alivio de la pobreza y fomentar un mayor entendimiento entre los pueblos. Para lograr estas metas, es esencial que una educación de calidad esté al alcance de todos, incluyendo a las niñas y las mujeres, los habitantes de las zonas rurales y las personas que pertenecen a las minorías. IV Fortalecimiento y preservación de la institucionalidad democrática Artículo 17 Cuando el gobierno de un Estado Miembro considere que está en riesgo su proceso político institucional

120

democrático o su legítimo ejercicio del poder, podrá recurrir al Secretario General o al Consejo Permanente a fin de solicitar asistencia para el fortalecimiento y preservación de la institucionalidad democrática. Artículo 18 Cuando en un Estado Miembro se produzcan situaciones que pudieran afectar el desarrollo del proceso político institucional democrático o el legítimo ejercicio del poder, el Secretario General o el Consejo Permanente podrá, con el consentimiento previo del gobierno afectado, disponer visitas y otras gestiones con la finalidad de hacer un análisis de la situación. El Secretario General elevará un informe al Consejo Permanente, y éste realizará una apreciación colectiva de la situación y, en caso necesario, podrá adoptar decisiones dirigidas a la preservación de la institucionalidad democrática y su fortalecimiento. Artículo 19 Basado en los principios de la Carta de la OEA y con sujeción a sus normas, y en concordancia con la cláusula democrática contenida en la Declaración de la ciudad de Quebec, la ruptura del orden democrático o una alteración del orden constitucional que afecte gravemente el orden democrático en un Estado Miembro constituye, mientras persista, un obstáculo insuperable para la participación de su gobierno en las sesiones de la Asamblea General, de la Reunión de Consulta, de los Consejos de la Organización y de las conferencias especializadas, de las comisiones, grupos de trabajo y demás órganos de la Organización. Artículo 20 En caso de que en un Estado Miembro se produzca una alteración del orden constitucional que afecte gravemente su orden democrático, cualquier Estado Miembro o el Secretario General podrá solicitar la convocatoria inmediata del Consejo Permanente para realizar una apreciación colectiva de la situación y adoptar las decisiones que estime conveniente. El Consejo Permanente, según la situación, podrá disponer la realización de las gestiones diplomáticas necesarias, incluidos los buenos oficios, para promover la normalización de la institucionalidad democrática. Si las gestiones diplomáticas resultaren infructuosas o si la urgencia del caso lo aconsejare, el Consejo Permanente convocará de inmediato un período extraordinario de sesiones de la Asamblea General para que ésta adopte las decisiones que estime apropiadas, incluyendo gestiones diplomáticas, conforme a la Carta de la Organización, el derecho internacional y las disposiciones de la presente Carta Democrática. Durante el proceso se realizarán las gestiones diplomáticas necesarias, incluidos los buenos oficios, para promover la normalización de la institucionalidad democrática. Artículo 21 Cuando la Asamblea General, convocada a un período extraordinario de sesiones, constate que se ha producido la ruptura del orden democrático en un Estado Miembro y que las gestiones diplomáticas han sido infructuosas, conforme a la Carta de la OEA tomará la decisión de suspender a dicho Estado Miembro del ejercicio de su derecho de participación en la OEA con el voto afirmativo de los dos tercios de los Estados Miembros. La suspensión entrará en vigor de inmediato. El Estado Miembro que hubiera sido objeto de suspensión deberá continuar observando el cumplimiento de sus obligaciones como miembro de la Organización, en particular en materia de derechos humanos. Adoptada la decisión de suspender a un gobierno, la Organización mantendrá sus gestiones diplomáticas para el restablecimiento de la democracia en el Estado Miembro afectado. Artículo 22 Una vez superada la situación que motivó la suspensión, cualquier Estado Miembro o el Secretario General podrá proponer a la Asamblea General el levantamiento de la suspensión. Esta decisión se adoptará por el voto de los dos tercios de los Estados Miembros, de acuerdo con la Carta de la OEA. V La democracia y las misiones de observación electoral Artículo 23 Los Estados Miembros son los responsables de organizar, llevar a cabo y garantizar procesos electorales libres y justos. Los Estados Miembros, en ejercicio de su soberanía, podrán solicitar a la OEA asesoramiento o asistencia para el fortalecimiento y desarrollo de sus instituciones y procesos electorales, incluido el envío de misiones preliminares para ese propósito. Artículo 24 Las misiones de observación electoral se llevarán a cabo por solicitud del Estado Miembro interesado. Con tal finalidad, el gobierno de dicho Estado y el Secretario General celebrarán un convenio que determine el alcance y la cobertura de la misión de observación electoral de que se trate. El Estado Miembro deberá garantizar las condiciones de seguridad, libre acceso a la información y amplia cooperación con la misión de observación electoral. Las misiones de observación electoral se realizarán de conformidad con los principios y normas de la OEA. La Organización deberá asegurar la eficacia e independencia de estas misiones, para lo cual se las dotará de los recursos necesarios. Las mismas se realizarán de forma objetiva, imparcial y transparente, y con la capacidad técnica apropiada. Las misiones de observación electoral presentarán oportunamente al Consejo Permanente, a través de la Secretaría General, los informes sobre sus actividades. Artículo 25 Las misiones de observación electoral deberán informar al Consejo Permanente, a través de la Secretaría General, si no existiesen las condiciones necesarias para la realización de elecciones libres y justas. La OEA podrá enviar, con el acuerdo del Estado interesado, misiones especiales a fin de contribuir a crear o mejorar dichas condiciones. VI Promoción de la cultura democrática Artículo 26 La OEA continuará desarrollando programas y actividades dirigidos a promover los principios y prácticas democráticas y fortalecer la cultura democrática en el Hemisferio, considerando que la democracia es un sistema de vida fundado en la libertad y el mejoramiento económico, social y cultural de los pueblos. La OEA mantendrá consultas y cooperación continua con los Estados Miembros, tomando en cuenta los aportes de organizaciones de la sociedad civil que trabajen en esos ámbitos. Artículo 27 Los programas y actividades se dirigirán a promover la gobernabilidad, la buena gestión, los valores democráticos y el fortalecimiento de la institucionalidad política y de las organizaciones de la sociedad civil. Se prestará atención especial al desarrollo de programas y actividades para la educación de la niñez y la juventud como forma de asegurar la permanencia de los valores democráticos, incluidas la libertad y la justicia social. Artículo 28 Los Estados promoverán la plena e igualitaria participación de la mujer en las estructuras políticas de sus respectivos países como elemento fundamental para la promoción y ejercicio de la cultura democrática.
