International Petition through AVAAZ

PRESS RELEASE

International Petition through AVAAZ

The Metropolitan Community Clinic at Helliniko has started an international petition, to be signed on-line, through the webpage of AVAAZ.  The goal of our campaign is to reverse the criminal policies implemented by the Greek government in the public health system.  These laws have been enacted under the influence of the “Troika” (i.e., the European Union, the European Central Bank and the IMF).  We wish to make known the plight of citizens in our country.

The signatures we collect will be sent to a variety of international organizations, including the European Union, the ECB, the IMF, The Council of Europe, the UN and the Greek Government.

It’s time for citizens to show their strength and it’s time for the international community to listen.  Human life is above numbers and money!

The petition will be translated into a number of languages

Here below you can find the English language version of the petition.  If you wish to sign, you can at https://secure.avaaz.org/en/petition/Stop_with_the_criminal_budget_cuts_to_Greeces_Public_Healthcare_System_1/

You can also watch the BBC's news coverage "In Sickness and in Debt" which shows in detail the humanitarian crisis currently unfolding in Greece http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rkKhwg0EPM
