    First International Forum on Biosaline Agriculture Laayoune, Convention Center, Hôtel Paradore, May 3-4 2019

    First International Forum on Biosaline Agriculture Laayoune, Convention Center, Hôtel Paradore, May 3-4 2019 RATIONALE: Increased demands on fresh water supplies in arid regions threaten the future sustained availability of fresh water for irrigation and crop production. Currently the quantity of water in these regions are very limited and most of the time are saline. Current climate change predictions indicate that many Desert regions presently irrigated will face increasing temperatures and decreasing rainfall, further aggravating the water scarcity in these regions. The need to increase food production in Desert regions can only be achieved by increased productivity of irrigated lands and/or increased acreage under irrigation. Alternative water supplies as well as more efficient use of existing water supplies are essential in avoiding a food crisis in regions such as the Middle East, North Africa, and to sustain the food production. However, numerous constraints face brackish water use, such as the increase in soil salinity, yield reductions and high cost of agricultural inputs. On the other hand, brackish water could be looked at as an opportunity for irrigation, whether directly, or it could be desalinated or mixed with treated wastewater. BACKGROUND: Following the successful introduction of a new crop by the international Center for Biosaline Agriculture (ICBA) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE) in Foum El Oued perimeter Laayoune. ICBA has been evaluating the growth and productivity of several field crops proven to have salt-tolerance potential, with the objective of studying their adaptation and yield potential to introduce them to the farmers in marginal and salt affected areas.

    Accelerating the Implementation of Commitments to African Women

    DIRECTORATE OF INFORMATION & COMMUNICATION Press Release No: /2020 Date: 18 Nov 2020 Venue: Addis ABaBa, Ethiopia Slow progress in meeting commitment to 2020 as the year of universal ratification of Maputo protocol A two-day meeting convened to evaluate the status of the ratification, domestication and implementation of the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa, commonly referred to as the Maputo Protocol on Women’s Rights, has concluded with strong recommendations on how to accelerate actions on the commitment to African women. Described as a vanguard document at the time of its adoption in 2003, the Maputo Protocol remains one of the most progressive legal instruments providing a comprehensive set of human rights for African women. It translates Africa’s commitment to invest in the development and empowerment of women and girls, who constitute the majority constituent of the population. Convened by the African Union Commission Women, Gender and Development Directorate in collaboration with and the Gender, Peace and Security Programme of the AUC Peace and Security Department and the Solidarity for African Women’s Rights the meetings held on the 17-18 November 2020 brought together African Union Experts responsible for Gender Equality and Women’s Affairs; the Pan-African Parliament; Civil Society Organizations, women’s rights organizations, women’s movements and youth organizations to evaluate the progress achieved especially at the national level, in protecting and promoting the rights of women as encapsulated in the Protocol. In deliberating on the advancement of women’s rights, the meeting noted that across the continent, a number of countries have enacted laws against sexual and gender based violence as well as harmful cultural practices while others have established dedicated national machineries to promote and protect the rights of women.

It is administrated by France though sovereignty over some or all of the Islands is contested by Madagascar, Mauritius, and the Comoros. None of the islands has ever had a permanent population. Fig. 3 - S1 (08.12.2014) - Europa Island at high tide. It is the southernmost island of the group. 2D view In Madagascar, the question of national sovereignty remains sensitive in public opinion. Especially when it comes to litigation with the former colonial power. The claim of the Scattered Islands is therefore the subject of a broad consensus. French side, even if the subject is more unknown, however, there has always been reluctance to give up any territory whatsoever. In a similar case, the co-management agreement of Tromelin Island with Mauritius, dated 2010, is still blocked in the National Assembly.
