Dear conference participants, We welcome you to the first International Conference on Urbanization and Global Environmental Change, Opportunities and Challenges for Sustainability in an Urbanizing World. Over the last five years, the Urbanization and Global Environmental Change (UGEC) community has grown rapidly and generated new understandings of the relationships between urbanization and the global environment. This conference is an exciting opportunity to bring together communities of academics, decision- makers, and practitioners at local, regional, and global scales in order to take stock of UGEC science and practice. Conference participants come from 40 countries and presentation topics range from the role of higher education as a catalyst for sustainability to urban vegetation, and socio-ecological contexts for urban sustainability. We have also included special sessions such as the one on the 2014 IPCC Fifth Assessment Report and UGEC research. We want to encourage interactions and dialogue between the participants during plenaries, parallel sessions and breaks; we clearly recognize the added-value of providing such opportunities and have designed our conference structure accordingly. On Saturday, October 17th, we will hold a joint-conference day with the IHDP Global Land Project, under the theme, “Sustainable Land Systems in the Era of Urbanization and Climate Change.” The goal of this day is to strengthen existing relationships and build new networks among urban and land- change specialists to foster more collaboration worldwide, expanding the range of issues addressed. We will conclude the joint-conference day with a reception. The next three days are a great opportunity to share ideas, recent research findings, and the road forward for UGEC science. We hope this conference will be informative and engaging for everyone. It is also an occasion to reacquaint with old friends as well as meet new colleagues from around the world. Sincerely, Roberto Sánchez-Rodríguez Karen C. Seto UGEC Co-Chair UGEC Co-Chair El Colegio de la Frontera Norte, Mexico Yale University, USA University of California, Riverside, USA Urbanization, Land-Use, Sukumawiki Sukumawiki is a traditional Kenyan plant much like spinach. With its simple preparation, low price, high yield, and rich nutritional value it has become a staple of Nairobi’s food culture. It was traditionally grown in the countryside and shipped into the city. As Kenya’s population flowed into Nairobi leaving their farms to pursue education and careers, either caused by push factors like droughts or other ecological stresses or by pull factors like better education and employment, the peri-urban farming landscape has changed. Sukumawiki is now being grown in urban farms in the outer sprawl of the city and in shantytowns like Kibera, and sold frequently just minutes away in markets. Questions of land-use and urbanization – shown in a simple plant like Sukumawiki – are dynamic and interrelated. The collaboration of IHDP’s urbanization and land projects in this conference is an excellent example of a scientific response to the mesh of complex interrelations among the diverse drivers and affects of global environmental change (GEC). The phenomenon of urbanization is one of the major land use transitions today. Rapid urbanization poses major challenges like poverty reduction, maintenance of infrastructure and provision of social nets as well as the sustainable and equitable supply of ecosystem services. In this context, the question arises how cities, combined with strategic land-use decisions, can be drivers of sustainability transitions. Awareness, preparedness and overall effective governance mechanisms and institutions will be key to addressing these challenges. Substantial input from the social sciences is essential to finding effective solutions for the adaptation to global changes and for the development of sustainable pathways for the future. As issues overlap scientific integration needs to emerge. I welcome and invite the shared platform provided by these two conferences to discuss pressing questions across thematic and professional boundaries, especially those between science and policy. I hope that the events send out some clear policy advice based on solid science. I wish all the participants success in the coming days!

Urban areas are central to the demographic, economic, and environmental challenges of the 21st century. The size, form, structure, and function of urban areas and their future growth trajectories are critical elements in the transition to global sustainability. At the same time, world-wide challenges such as increases in surface temperature, accelerated sea level rise, biodiversity loss, and declines in water availability and supply pose particular threats to urban areas due to their location and concentration of people and economic resources. Urbanization is a major component of global environmental change, while at the same time global environmental change poses threats to urban areas. Especially given the rapid pace of urban growth in middle and low income countries, there is an urgent need to understand the bi-directional interactions between urbanization and global environmental change processes. And most importantly, how can urbanization be promoted as an opportunity for sustainability? The International Conference on Urbanization and Global Environmental Change “Opportunities and Challenges for Sustainability in an Urbanizing World” comes at a critical point for both the UGEC project and international research community on urbanization and global environmental change (ugec). Since the project was launched in 2005, there has been a rapid increase in the volume of ugec research, and in particular, climate change and biodiversity loss. The midway point for the project is an opportunity for stock-taking, to strengthen and expand regional and thematic networks of researchers, practitioners, NGOs, and other relevant organizations, and to identify clear goals and research paths for the next phase of the project. The conference will be open to scientists, policymakers, practitioners, stakeholders and the general public and will provide a comprehensive perspective of current knowledge of the dynamic and complex interactions between urbanization and global environmental change. The goal is to build a forum 1 for reflection, exchange of knowledge, experiences, lessons, ideas, and information, contributing to the creation of efficient strategies for urban sustainability. The structure and approach is specifically designed to foster dialogue among participants. On Friday, October 15th and Saturday, October 16th the UGEC conference will showcase oral presentations and posters analyzing the lessons learned from a wide-range of case studies on the interactions between urbanization and global environmental change in diverse regional settings (biogeographic regions but also geopolitical regions), particularly those that focus in coastal areas, arid lands, the humid tropic, mountain and temperate zones. Furthermore, the conference encourages reflective presentations on conceptual and methodological challenges for constructing multidimensional and integrated approaches of the interactions between urbanization and global environmental change, fostering dialogue about the construction of useful knowledge for urban sustainability and future research and operational agendas. The following five themes have been identified as the most compelling for guiding the future ugec research agenda and will help frame the conference presentations and dialogue. Effects of and responses to climate change in urban areas. Human beings have always had an intimate relation with climate. The changes in climate have varied effects on urban systems at different spatial and temporal scales. Current attention to climate change at the local, national, regional, and international level creates opportunities to improve urban responses for mitigation and adaptation to climate change. The conference will focus on the complex and diverse bidirectional interactions between urban areas and climate change. Land use and land cover. Urban land change is one of the most profound human interventions in the Earth System functioning, especially at the local and regional levels. Focusing on the theme of

  • Arizona State University June 30, 2005 Financial Report
    2005 FINANCIAL REPORT On the front cover Clockwise from the top – In August 2004 ASU welcomed 58,156 students to its campuses. Included were 162 National Merit Scholars and over 7,700 fi rst time freshmen. More than 27% of the fi rst time freshmen on the campuses were rated in the top 10% of their high school graduating classes. During the past 11 years ASU has had more students than any other public university selected for the USA Today’s ranking of the nation’s top 20 undergraduates. When compared against private universities, ASU ranks 3rd overall in students selected for this ranking. ASU’s student population represents all 50 states and more than 140 nations. As a part of the University’s initiatives to enhance the freshmen classroom experience, the average class size of core freshmen classes, such as English composition and college algebra courses, has been reduced. ASU’s Barrett Honors College is considered among the top honors colleges in the nation and selectively recruits academically outstanding undergraduates. In the 2004/2005 academic year ASU had one of the largest classes of freshmen National Merit Scholars of any public university. ASU is committed to community outreach through its schools and colleges, non academic departments, and student organizations. Often these programs involve interaction with local schools or neighborhoods. Programs include helping American Indian students who have an interest in health care programs explore those interests in the nursing, math, and science fi elds; exposing the children of migrant farm workers to various technology programs and equipment; providing professional development resources to Arizona’s K 12 teachers through a web portal; and preparing minority engineering students for the college experience.

    BUILDING INTEGRITY SINCE 1890 The Remarkable History of Sundt Construction SUNDT CONSTRUCTION, INC. / 800.280.3000 / SUNDT.COM Chapter One From Small Beginnings Mauritz MAURITZ MARTINSEN SUNDT, founder of the company that bears his name, was Martinsen Sundt born in Gjovik, Norway, on October 3, 1863, and grew up on the family farm near Eina, which is south of Gjovik. Th e farm is on a point of land on the east coast of Lake Mjosa, about 70 miles due north of the capitol city of Oslo, and has been in the Sundt family for 400 years. Lake Mjosa is Norway’s largest lake and is extremely deep, one of the deepest lakes in all of Europe. From Farmer to Ship’s Carpenter Norway has always been a hard place to earn a living off the land because less than fi ve percent of the entire country is arable. Th e rest is mountains covered with snow, ice and rocks. Nothing has been written about the Sundt farm’s crops but it likely was a subsistence farm, meaning everything the family raised was consumed by the family and livestock. What is known, though, is that M.M. Sundt left home very early in life. It was about 1877, when he was 12 or 13, that he left home to join the Norwegian Merchant Marine. He apparently sailed fi rst as a cabin boy, but he was ambitious and within a short time was appointed ship’s carpenter when the ship’s regular carpenter died. For the next four years he sailed aboard windjammers on the North and Baltic Seas, transporting freight between England and Leningrad and ports between.

  • Volume 33 2006 Issue
    Review of African Political Economy No.110:619-634 © ROAPE Publications Ltd., 2006 Religion, Ideology & Conflict in Africa Roy Love Prologue: Whose Political Agenda? The last issue which ROAPE devoted entirely to religion (‘Fundamentalism in Africa: Religion and Politics’, No. 52, 1991) reflected what its editors saw then as the principal area of concern, particularly Christian fundamentalism often sponsored by US evangelical churches. Global events since the devastation of the ‘twin towers’ in New York on 9 September 2001, the election and re-election to the American presidency of a ‘born again’ Christian,1 terrorist atrocities in Kenya and Tanzania and the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, have altered the picture so radically that a revisit to the topic is now timely, if not overdue. In so doing it is appropriate also to update the terminology. ‘Fundamentalism’ has increasingly come to be seen as a problematic label, with a shift from its meaning of a dogmatism of belief that did not depart from literal interpretation of sacred texts. Concern today is not with religious belief per se, but faith as the basis for political activities and organisation, even if the rigidity of those beliefs adds intolerance to violent politics. This will be the focus of the current issue. In it we will tend to use the now more standard ‘Islamism’ and talk about Islamist movements rather than ‘Islamic fundamentalism’; likewise, rather than Christian fundamentalism we will talk about ideologies such as evangelism or Pentecostalism and in organisational terms concentrate on the familiar ‘Christian right’. There is also a contextual shift internal to Africa (and elsewhere globally) in the apparent burgeoning of religious bodies, of converts to new faiths and in the centrality of religious concerns, especially in politics – in turn reflected in the number of books, articles and conferences on these themes.2 The contemporary global backcloth is thus the starting point for looking at religion and politics in Africa.
