Sign up for Chalkbeat Detroit’s free newsletter to keep up with the city’s public school system and Michigan education policy. Mayor Mary Sheffield made Pershing High School the first stop after her public swearing-in ceremony on Friday. The stop at the Detroit Public Schools Community District’s neighborhood school reflected her campaign promise to focus her term on initiatives that will improve the lives of young people. Lines of cheerleaders and a hallway booming with applause greeted Sheffield. As students and adults clamored to point their cellphone cameras at the mayor when she walked in, girls talked to each other about how excited they were to meet the city’s first female mayor. “I’m very grateful to be in the presence of such a person,” said senior Neveah Washington. Sheffield, who was sworn in during a private ceremony on Jan. 1, spent 30 minutes with nearly 90 students in the school’s library. She talked about partnering with the city’s schools to address systemic issues that affect the quality of students’ education, from improving city transportation to offering more after-school programming and wraparound services. DeAngelo Allen, left, and Darnell Miller, right, listen to Sheffield talk about her policy priorities. The mayor said she also wants to give youth reasons to stay in Detroit, such as more career opportunities and affordable housing. Though the mayor does not have control over schools, Sheffield told the students, “that does not mean that the mayor cannot be a great partner, that we cannot be visible and hands-on with our youth – and that is what I intend to do.” Education became a key issue in the mayor’s race as more advocates pushed for the office to address underlying systemic challenges that contribute to poor academic performance and chronic absenteeism in the city’s schools. Superintendent Nikolai Vitti told the students that Sheffield’s presence at the school reflects her interest in investing in opportunities that will benefit neighborhood schools. “Being here at Pershing, being here at DPSCD, in a traditional public school, and a neighborhood school on the east side, all of that is intentional,” he said. “If we don’t have strong neighborhood schools, you can’t have a strong city.” Sheffield told the students she is creating the city’s first youth department. Jerjuan Howard, the city’s new director of youth affairs, said each department in the mayor’s office will make a “youth priority statement” to detail how decisions may affect young people. “What that means is that you all will be at the center of decision making for anything the city is talking about moving forward,” he said. “No other city in the nation has done this yet.” Sheffield talked to the students one-on-one and collected their written questions. DeAngelo Allen, a junior who takes a city bus to school every day, asked Sheffield how she will improve the city’s transportation. Allen said he is often late to school because the buses he relies on either come far earlier or later than their scheduled times. The teen said he feels like he has to be vigilant about safety when he rides the bus. “You have to watch your surroundings,” he said. “You see some pretty disturbing stuff.” Mac Sconi, 17, asked Sheffield how she will address safety concerns – an issue many students say affects their ability to learn and get to school. The teen said he was optimistic about the response he got from the mayor after she expressed she would take a holistic approach to improving safety with crime prevention programs. The city’s new neighborhood and community safety office will promote long-term solutions like mental health and conflict resolution programs, Sheffield added. Mac Sconi, center, asks Sheffield how she will make Detroit a safer place for youth. “There’s a lot of things right now that are threatening the safety of our students,” Sconi said. “It’s something that needs to be addressed, because what is the importance of anything if we are not safe?” Hannah Dellinger covers Detroit schools for Chalkbeat Detroit.

Após mais de 25 anos de negociações, o acordo comercial entre Mercosul e União Europeia (UE) foi aprovado nesta sexta-feira (9) pelo Conselho da EU. Com a previsão de ser assinado no dia 17 em Assunção, Paraguai, o tratado estabelece as bases da maior zona de livre comércio do mundo, envolvendo cerca de 700 milhões de pessoas. Embora celebrado por governos e setores industriais, o acordo ainda enfrenta resistência de agricultores europeus e ambientalistas, que criticam possíveis impactos sobre o clima e a concorrência agrícola. A implementação será gradual e os efeitos práticos devem ser sentidos ao longo de vários anos. Notícias relacionadas: Haddad e Tebet destacam benefícios para Brasil com acordo UE-Mercosul. Empresariado brasileiro comemora avanço no acordo com União Europeia. Líderes europeus comemoram aprovação provisória de Acordo UE-Mercosul. Após a assinatura formal, o acordo ainda precisará ser aprovado pelo Parlamento Europeu. Partes que extrapolam a política comercial, como acordos técnicos, exigirão ratificação nos parlamentos nacionais da UE, o que pode alongar o cronograma e abrir espaço para disputas. Confira os principais pontos do acordo: 1. Eliminação de tarifas alfandegárias Redução gradual de tarifas sobre a maior parte dos bens e serviços; Mercosul: zerará tarifas sobre 91% dos bens europeus em até 15 anos; União Europeia: eliminará tarifas sobre 95% dos bens do Mercosul em até 12 anos. 2. Ganhos imediatos para a indústria Tarifa zero desde o início para diversos produtos industriais. >>Setores beneficiados: Máquinas e equipamentos; Automóveis e autopeças; Produtos químicos; Aeronaves e equipamentos de transporte. 3. Acesso ampliado ao mercado europeu Empresas do Mercosul ganham preferência em um mercado de alto poder aquisitivo; UE tem PIB estimado em US$ 22 trilhões; Comércio tende a ser mais previsível e com menos barreiras técnicas. 4. Cotas para produtos agrícolas sensíveis Produtos como carne bovina, frango, arroz, mel, açúcar e etanol terão cotas de importação; Acima dessas cotas, é cobrada tarifa; Cotas crescem ao longo do tempo, com tarifas reduzidas, em vez de liberar entrada sem restrições; Mecanismo busca evitar impactos abruptos sobre agricultores europeus; Na UE, as cotas equivalem a 3% dos bens ou 5% do valor importado do Brasil; No mercado brasileiro, chegam a 9% dos bens ou 8% do valor. 5. Salvaguardas agrícolas >>UE poderá reintroduzir tarifas temporariamente se: Importações crescerem acima de limites definidos; Preços ficarem muito abaixo do mercado europeu; Medida vale para cadeias consideradas sensíveis. 6. Compromissos ambientais obrigatórios Produtos beneficiados pelo acordo não poderão estar ligados a desmatamento ilegal; Cláusulas ambientais são vinculantes; Possibilidade de suspensão do acordo em caso de violação do Acordo de Paris. 7. Regras sanitárias continuam rigorosas UE não flexibiliza padrões sanitários e fitossanitários. Produtos importados seguirão regras rígidas de segurança alimentar. 8. Comércio de serviços e investimentos >>Redução de discriminação regulatória a investidores estrangeiros. >>Avanços em setores como: Serviços financeiros; Telecomunicações; Transporte; Serviços empresariais. 9. Compras públicas Empresas do Mercosul poderão disputar licitações públicas na UE; Regras mais transparentes e previsíveis. 10. Proteção à propriedade intelectual Reconhecimento de cerca de 350 indicações geográficas europeias; Regras claras sobre marcas, patentes e direitos autorais. 11. Pequenas e médias empresas (PMEs) Capítulo específico para PMEs; Medidas de facilitação aduaneira e acesso à informação; Redução de custos e burocracia para pequenos exportadores. 12. Impacto para o Brasil Potencial de aumento das exportações, especialmente do agro e da indústria; Maior integração a cadeias globais de valor; Possível atração de investimentos estrangeiros no médio e longo prazo. 13. Próximos passos Assinatura prevista para 17 de janeiro, no Paraguai; Aprovação pelo Parlamento Europeu; Ratificação nos Congressos do Brasil, Argentina, Paraguai e Uruguai; Entrada em vigor apenas após conclusão de todos os trâmites; Acordos que extrapolam política comercial precisam ser aprovados pelos parlamentos de cada país.
