  • Bangui, Central African Republic
    CITIES IN CRISIS CONSULTATIONS - Bangui, Central African Republic MARCH 2016 INTRODUCTION Overview of Urban Consultations Bangui has been affected by violence and displacement over the past 4 years and currently hosts over 50,000 internally displaced people. By 2050 over 70% of the global population will live in urban areas. This accelerating urbanization trend is accompanied by an increasing vulnerability of cities to The crisis has put significant strain on municipal services, which have lacked the required resources and capacity to meet the evolving needs both natural and man-made disasters. More and more, humanitarian actors are of Bangui’s increasingly vulnerable population. As a consequence, the provision of basic services has become heavily reliant on international responding to urban crisis. They are however often badly equipped to understand humanitarian stakeholders. Due to a multiplicity of factors, linkages between humanitarian stakeholders and municipal actors have remained and effectively engage with cities’ complex socio-economic dynamics and weak, contributing to sub-optimal coordination and affecting the efficiency of humanitarian planning and targeting. With the recent elections governance structures. Recognizing these challenges, the World Humanitarian and a renewed hope for stability in the CAR, strengthening this linkage must become a priority in order to support the recovery effort and the Summit has mandated an Urban Expert Group to identify key recommendations for promoting better humanitarian response to urban crisis. re-establishment of municipal services. With a view of contributing to this discussion, IMPACT Initiatives and UCLG’s KEY FINDINGS Task Force On Local and Regional Government Disaster Response facilitated a series of consultations in six cities affected by natural or man-made disasters.

  • Medicinal Plants Sold in the Markets of Antananarivo, Madagascar Randriamiharisoa Et Al

Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2015) 11:60 DOI 10.1186/s13002-015-0046-y JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Medicinal plants sold in the markets of Antananarivo, Madagascar Maria Nirina Randriamiharisoa1*, Alyse R. Kuhlman2, Vololoniaina Jeannoda1, Harison Rabarison1, Nivo Rakotoarivelo3, Tabita Randrianarivony3, Fortunat Raktoarivony3, Armand Randrianasolo2 and Rainer W. Bussmann2 Abstract Background: This study focuses on the large outdoor markets of the capital of Madagascar, Antananarivo. As the largest metropolitan area in Madagascar with a population of nearly two million, the region has great capacity for consumption of medicinal plant remedies despite numerous pharmacies. Medicinal plant use spans all socioeconomic levels, and the diverse metropolitan population allows us to study a wide variety of people who consume these plants for medical purposes. The purpose of this study is to identify and generate a list of medicinal plants sold in the traditional markets with a focus on those collected in the forests around Antananarivo, get an idea of the quantities of medicinal plants sold in the markets around Antananarivo, and assess the economy of the medicinal plant markets. Methods: In order to determine which medicinal plants are most consumed in Antananarivo, ethnobotanical enquiries were conducted in the five main markets of the capital city. Ethnobotanical surveys were conducted with medicinal plant traders, suppliers, harvesters and cultivators, with voucher specimens created from the plants discussed.

  • WIND SPEED POTENTIAL ASSESSMENT of SELECTED CLIMATIC ZONES of ETHIOPIA Endalew Ayenew1, Santoshkumar Hampannavar2 •
    Endalew Ayenew RT&A, Special Issue № 1 (60) WIND SPEED POTENTIAL ASSESSMENT Volume 16, Janyary 2021 WIND SPEED POTENTIAL ASSESSMENT OF SELECTED CLIMATIC ZONES OF ETHIOPIA Endalew Ayenew1, Santoshkumar Hampannavar2 • 1College of Electrical & Mechanical Engineering, Addis Ababa Science and Technology University, Ethiopia Professor, School of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, REVA University, Bengaluru, India [email protected] Abstract In this paper the wind speed potential assessment of different climatic zones of Ethiopia are proposed. Statistical analysis of wind speed were carried out using Rayleigh and Weibull probability density functions (PDF) for a specific location. Real time Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) data was used for the wind speed potential assessment of three different climatic zones and to plot wind rose diagram. Keywords: Wind speed assessment, Statistical analysis, Wind Energy I. Introduction Wind is one of the globally recognized potential renewable energy source and it is important to have an inclusive knowledge about the wind characteristics for efficient planning and implementation of wind power generation plants. The wind energy assessment is very crucial and draws attention of researchers. Wind resources assessment is a basic requirement for the following reasons: i) wind power is proportional to the cube of the wind speed (10% difference in wind speed leads to 33% changes in wind power), ii) fluctuating wind speed and wind shears. According to the statistics the country has existing wind energy capacity of about 18.7GW with wind speed of 7.5 to 8.8 m/s at 50m height above the ground level. Wind energy is recognized throughout the world as a cost-effective energy plant.
