The United Nations World Urbanisation Prospects study (UN-Habitat, 2018) shows that the world's urban population reached 50% of the global population, and that this phenomenon is expected to increase over the next thirty years. According to the projections of UN- Habitat study, Africa will be the continent that will experience the largest urban population growth in the coming decades. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), like Tanzania and Nigeria, will be among the 10 countries with the highest rate of urban population by 2050 (Maiga and Bocquier, 2016). Urbanisation is associated with major health challenges, particularly in the African region and the DRC.

  • In Search of Peace: an Autopsy of the Political Dimensions of Violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo
    IN SEARCH OF PEACE: AN AUTOPSY OF THE POLITICAL DIMENSIONS OF VIOLENCE IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO By AARON ZACHARIAH HALE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Aaron Zachariah Hale 2 To all the Congolese who helped me understand life’s difficult challenges, and to Fredline M’Cormack-Hale for your support and patience during this endeavor 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I was initially skeptical about attending The University of Florida (UF) in 2002 for a number of reasons, but attending UF has been one of the most memorable times of my life. I have been so fortunate to be given the opportunity to study African Politics in the Department of Political Science in a cozy little town like Gainesville. For students interested in Africa, UF’s Center for African Studies (CAS) has been such a fantastic resource and meeting place for all things African. Dr. Leonardo Villalón took over the management of CAS the same year and has led and expanded the CAS to reach beyond its traditional suit of Eastern and Southern African studies to now encompass much of the sub-region of West Africa. The CAS has grown leaps and bounds in recent years with recent faculty hires from many African and European countries to right here in the United States. In addition to a strong and committed body of faculty, I have seen in my stay of seven years the population of graduate and undergraduate students with an interest in Africa only swell, which bodes well for the upcoming generation of new Africanists.

It has several geothermal surface manifestations, mainly hot springs in Mutsora, Masambo, Kikura, Kyavitumbi and Kambo. All these geothermal manifestations have been mapped and are currently under geoscientific investigation. The area also has a large hydrologic network and several other geothermal fields which are yet to be discovered with further research. This paper focuses on reviewing the direct and indirect uses of known geothermal resources from which the local population of the Ruwenzori sector may benefit in the future. Applications related to direct use of geothermal manifestations include greenhouse in agriculture, hot water pool for bathing and medical benefits for tourist and local people, hot water for fish farming and other several applications. Indirect use of geothermal resources would generate energy for local communities and this would allow them to shift from traditional to modern agricultural practices. Electricity would benefit the local people in transforming products such as cocoa, palm oil, maize and preserving other crops after their harvest.
