Anfang der 1990er-Jahre waren es der somalische Bürgerkrieg und die daraus hervorgehende huma- nitäre Katastrophe, die im Rahmen der Vereinten Nationen den ersten großen Auslandseinsatz deutscher Streitkräfte erforder- lich machten. Nach den Anschlägen vom 11. September 2001 in den USA und dem Beginn der »Operation Enduring Freedom« (OEF) wurde das Horn von Afrika erneut zum Einsatzgebiet der Bun- deswehr. Die Deutsche Marine wird seit 2002 – zunächst im Zuge der OEF und seit 2008 als Teil der Mission »Atalanta« der Europäischen Union – in der Region eingesetzt: unter anderem zur Kontrolle des Seeverkehrs auf einer der wichtigsten mariti- men Verkehrsadern des Welthandels, zum Schutz von Schiffen des Welternährungsprogrammes auf ihrem Weg nach Somalia sowie zur Sicherung von zivilen Schiffen im Indischen Ozean vor terroristischen Angriffen und vor Piratenüberfällen.

  • The Interaction Between International Aid and South Sudanese
    Lost in Translation: The interaction between international humanitarian aid and South Sudanese accountability systems September 2020 This research was conducted by the Conflict Sensitivity Resource Facility (CSRF) in August and September 2019 and was funded by the UK, Swiss, Dutch and Canadian donor missions in South Sudan. The CSRF is implemented by a consortium of the NGOs Saferworld and swisspeace. It is intended to support conflict-sensitive aid programming in South Sudan. This research would not have been possible without the South Sudanese and international aid actors who generously gave their time and insights. It is dedicated to the South Sudanese aid workers who tirelessly balance their personal and professional cultures to deliver assistance to those who need it.

Without their contributions, this study would not have reached its findings. This study was self funded by SIDRA and would not have materialized without the sacrifice of keeping aside other cost to allocate resources for this study. Finally, this study would not have come to be without the tireless efforts of SIDRA staff through the direction of Sahro Koshin, SIDRA Head of Programmes and leadership of Guled Salah, SIDRAs Executive Director. Many other people supported this study in different ways and made it a success. SIDRA whole heartedly appreciates all these people.

It seems we are deviating from our agenda. What I expected was that the Chiefs of our land, Dinka and Nuer, would sit on one side and address our grievances against the soldiers. I differ from previous speakers… I believe this is not like a traditional war using spears. In my view, our discussion should not concentrate on the chiefs of Dinka and Nuer, but on the soldiers, who are the ones who are responsible for beginning this conflict. “When John Garang and Riek Machar [leaders of rival SPLA factions] began fighting did we understand the reasons for their fighting? When people went to Bilpam [in Ethiopia] to get arms, we thought they would fight against the Government. We were not expecting to fight against ourselves. I would like to ask Commanders Salva Mathok & Salva Kiir & Commander Parjak [Senior SPLA Commanders] if they have concluded the fight against each other. I would ask if they have ended their conflict. Only then would we begin discussions between the chiefs of Dinka and Nuer. “The soldiers are like snakes. When a snake comes to your house day after day, one day he will bite you.

  • Heading with Word in Woodblock
    Gambella Region Area Brief Regional Overview Gambella Peoples' region is one of the nine regional states of Ethiopia. This region is located at the western edge of the country bordering South Sudan. The capital of the region, Gambella, is 766km from Addis Ababa. This region has an estimated density of 10 people per square kilometre. The main ethnicities of the region are the Nuer (46.66%), the Anuak 21.16%), Amhara (8.42%), Kafficho (5.04%), Oromo (4.83%), Mezhenger (4%), Shakacho (2.27%), Kambata (1.44%), Tigrean (1.32%) and other ethnic groups predominantly from southern Ethiopia 4.86%. Children below the age of 18 years accounts for 66.5% (27,974) of the refugee population. Female (women and girls) significantly outnumber male (adult & young men) due to the fact that sizable number of adult and young men died during the 21 years of liberation struggle. Currently there are three refugee camps in Gambella region namely Pugnido, Leite Chore and Okugo which host about 68,000 refugees from South Sudan. Pugnido, 876 kilometres from Addis Ababa to the south west is the oldest refugee camp, which is hosting 42,044 refugees and has existed since 1992 while Okugo, which hosts 5,927 refugees, was established in mid 2013 following interethnic clash between Nuer and Murle people. Leite Chore refugee camp, which is under establishment, will host 20,000 South Sudanese asylum seekers displaced from their homeland due to the countrywide deadly armed conflict that erupted in December, 2013 between the supporters of President Salva Kir and the former vice president Dr.

  • Interagency Rapid Protection Assessment - Bahir Dar, Amhara Region
    Interagency Rapid Protection Assessment - Bahir Dar, Amhara Region 18-19 December 2018 MISSION OBJECTIVE / PURPOSE: In mid-December 2018, the Protection Cluster was informed of the arrival of approximately 1,200 Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) from Kamashi zone in Benishangul-Gumuz region to Bahir Dar in Amhara region. Amhara regional DRM confirmed the numbers and added that an upwards of 200 IDPs continue to arrive Bahir Dar on a daily basis. The IDPs are of Amharic ethnicity, whom have reported instances of GBV and human rights violations, suffered in Kamashi and en route to Bahir Dar. The Protection Cluster conducted an interagency Rapid Protection Assessment between the 18th – 19th December, to better understand the protection needs of the new arrivals to Bahir Dar, as well as the conditions in Kamashi zone. As humanitarian access to Kamashi zone is restricted, the total number of IDPs and conditions in Kamashi, remains largely unknown by the humanitarian community. The aim of a Rapid Protection Assessment is to assist the Protection Cluster and protection agencies to collect relevant information to identify key protection concerns and information gaps according to an agreed common methodology, which included: key informant interviews, focus group discussions and observations.

    Journal of Critical Reviews ISSN- 2394-5125 Vol 7, Issue 9, 2020 SOCIAL CONDITIONS OF SHINASHA TRIALS IN NORTHWESTERN ETHIOPIA 1Abebe Ano Alula, 2Arjun Rao Kuthadi (Ph.D.) 1Ph.D. candidate in Department of History, College of Social Sciences and Art Osmania University, Hyderabad, India 2Professor of History ,Supervisor, Department of History, College of Social Sciences and Art Osmania University, Hyderabad, India Received: 24.03.2020 Revised: 14.04.2020 Accepted: 22.05.2020 Abstract This article is primarily concerned to explore the social conditions of the Shinasha community in northwestern Ethiopia. Shinasha is some of the Indigenous groups with Ca. 60,587 population in Ethiopia, Africa continent, who are living Benishangul-Gumuz Regional State, near the Sudanese borderland. They have different social practices that distinguish them from others. They were part of the historical Gonga people who once lived on edges of the River Abay. Where were the early places of settlement of the Shinasha? What were the Social conditions, social changes and continuity in the Shinasha community? I address these questions by historically juxtaposing with social conditions and its dynamics with my interviews with the key informants and observations of changes in conditions of the Shinasha. This study highlights the geographic and background of the study area. The study tries to focus on the early settlement of the Shinasha and their conquest under imperial rule. It attempted to analyze the social organization of the Shinasha society. The significance of the paper is contributed to the understanding of the Social conditions and social changes and continuity of the Shinasha community in the historical outline.
