  • Inequality of Child Mortality Among Ethnic Groups in Sub-Saharan Africa M
    Special Theme ±Inequalities in Health Inequality of child mortality among ethnic groups in sub-Saharan Africa M. Brockerhoff1 & P. Hewett2 Accounts by journalists of wars in several countries of sub-Saharan Africa in the 1990s have raised concern that ethnic cleavages and overlapping religious and racial affiliations may widen the inequalities in health and survival among ethnic groups throughout the region, particularly among children. Paradoxically, there has been no systematic examination of ethnic inequality in child survival chances across countries in the region. This paper uses survey data collected in the 1990s in 11 countries (Central African Republic, Coà te d'Ivoire, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Namibia, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Uganda, and Zambia) to examine whether ethnic inequality in child mortality has been present and spreading in sub-Saharan Africa since the 1980s. The focus was on one or two groups in each country which may have experienced distinct child health and survival chances, compared to the rest of the national population, as a result of their geographical location. The factors examined to explain potential child survival inequalities among ethnic groups included residence in the largest city, household economic conditions, educational attainment and nutritional status of the mothers, use of modern maternal and child health services including immunization, and patterns of fertility and migration. The results show remarkable consistency. In all 11 countries there were significant differentials between ethnic groups in the odds of dying during infancy or before the age of 5 years. Multivariate analysis shows that ethnic child mortality differences are closely linked with economic inequality in many countries, and perhaps with differential use of child health services in countries of the Sahel region.

  • Lessons Learned from Power-Sharing in Africa
    8/2008 Lessons Learned from Power-Sharing in Africa Håvard Strand, Centre for the Study of Civil War (CSCW) Scott Gates, Centre for the Study of Civil War (CSCW) Several power-sharing agreements have been reached in Africa over the last decades. This project has compared the experiences of various forms of power-sharing in five countries, Bu- rundi, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone. The cases differ significantly both with regard to the implementation of power-sharing and the rationale for adopting such institutions. Our conclusions is that power-sharing institutions have proven themselves useful in some countries and less so in others. The most positive experiences have been in the peace processes of Sierra Leone and Liberia, where power-sharing played a vital role in securing peace. There are less clear support for power-sharing institutions with regard to good governance. Introduction tions.

The material has been prepared at the request of CICRED, as part of its contribution to the objectives of the World Population Year, 1974. In common with other developing countries of Africa, the East African countries are becoming acutely aware of the importance of rapid population growth and its significance to the attainment of development objectives. It has become increasingly clear that with the current rates of growth and the limited resources, the burden of socio-economic development programmes has become more serious. The search for alternative strategies to development must therefore focus attention on the impact of accelerating growth rate which leads to retardation of the rate of economic and social development.

It further discusses the repercussions of this on the unity and leadership of the country. The CAR has, for a long time, been embroiled in a crisis that has impeded the unity of the country. It is a failed state in Africa to say the least, and the involvement of neighboring and other states in the crisis in one way or the other has compounded the multifarious problems of this country.

  • Nation Building and Public Goods in Kenya Versus Tanzania
    TRIBE OR NATION? Nation Building and Public Goods in Kenya versus Tanzania By EDWARD MIGUEL* I. INTRODUCTION HE design of public policies that promote interethnic cooperation Tremains poorly understood nearly twenty years after the appear- ance of Horowitz's seminal work.1 Recent research suggests that ethni- cally diverse societies are prone to corruption, political instability, poor institutional performance, and slow economic growth and that in the United States higher levels of diversity are related to lower provision of local public goods across municipalities. Addressing ethnic divisions is likely to be particularly important for Africa, the most ethnically di- verse and poorest continent. This article examines how central government nation-building poli- cies affect interethnic cooperation, by comparing the relationship be- tween local ethnic diversity and public goods across two nearby rural districts, one in western Kenya and one in western Tanzania, using colonial-era national boundary placement as a "natural experiment." Despite their largely shared geography, history, and colonial institu- tional legacy, governments in Kenya and Tanzania have followed radi- cally different ethnic policies along a range of dimensions—most notably in national language policy, the educational curriculum, and local institutional reform—with Tanzania consistently pursuing the more serious nation-building policies during the postcolonial period. The empirical evidence in this article suggests that the Tanzanian nation-building approach has allowed

Mr. Tarek Ladeb Permanent Representative of the Permanent Mission of Tunisia to the United Nations Open VTC on the Situation in the Central African Republic United Nations Security Council January 21st, 2021 New York Check Against Delivery Mr. President, I have the honor to deliver this statement on behalf of the A3+1 members of the Council, namely Kenya, Niger, Tunisia and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. At the outset, let me thank the Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Mr. Mankeur Ndiaye, for his comprehensive briefing and reiterate our strong support for his efforts and for MINUSCA’s fundamental role in assisting the Central African Republic authorities and people in their quest to achieve lasting peace and stability. We reiterate our strongest condemnation of the attacks perpetrated by the CPC armed elements since the beginning of its offensive last December 2020 during which several MINUSCA peacekeepers were killed and several others were injured. We renew our deepest condolences and sympathy to the families of the deceased peacekeepers as well as to Bangladesh, Burundi, Cameroon, Gabon, Morocco, Rwanda, and MINUSCA. We call on national authorities of the CAR to swiftly investigate and bring to justice the perpetrators of these heinous acts. Such attacks against peacekeepers may constitute war crimes and should not go unpunished. We are deeply perturbed by the volatile security situation in the CAR and the continued destabilization efforts by these armed groups and spoilers throughout the country.
