    U.S. Foreign Assistance to Latin America and the Caribbean: Recent Trends and FY2013 Appropriations Peter J. Meyer Analyst in Latin American Affairs Mark P. Sullivan Specialist in Latin American Affairs June 26, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R42582 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress U.S. Foreign Assistance to Latin America and the Caribbean Summary Geographic proximity has forged strong linkages between the United States and the nations of Latin America and the Caribbean, with critical U.S. interests in the region encompassing economic, political, and security concerns. U.S. policymakers have emphasized different strategic interests in the region at different times, from combating Soviet influence during the Cold War to advancing democracy and open markets since the 1990s. Current U.S. policy toward the region is designed to promote economic and social opportunity; ensure citizen security; strengthen effective democratic institutions; and secure a clean energy future. As part of broader efforts to advance these priorities, the United States provides Latin American and Caribbean nations with substantial amounts of foreign assistance. Congress – which authorizes and appropriates aid for the region, and engages in oversight of assistance programs – is currently considering the President’s foreign aid request for FY2013. In recent years, the State Department, Foreign Operations, and Related Programs appropriations measure has been the primary legislative vehicle through which Congress reviews U.S. assistance and influences executive branch policy toward the region. Trends in Assistance Since 1946, the United States has provided over $148 billion (constant 2010 dollars) in assistance to the region.

The Chilean Red Cross (CRC) has determined that external assistance is not required at this time; however, as the situation is assessed, there may be a need for funding or other assistance from donors once more information is available on the impact of the disaster. <click here to view the map of the affected area, or here for detailed contact information> On 27 February 2010 at about 3:35 a.m. local time, an earthquake of magnitude 8.8 occurred in the moderately populated region of Bio-Bio in central Chile. The earthquake struck 90 kilometres north-east of the city of Concepción, the capital of Bio-Bio, and there have been many aftershocks. A tsunami alert has been generated in Chile and most of all countries on the Pacific Coast. At least 100 people have been killed and many affected after the huge earthquake struck the Chilean coast and caused buildings to collapse in the capital, Santiago. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre informed that sea level readings indicate a tsunami was generated. The Situation The 8.8 magnitude earthquake that hit the coast of Chile has killed at least 100 people, flattening buildings and triggering a tsunami. This has been the country’s largest earthquake for 25 years. A tsunami warning has been extended across the Pacific rim, including most of Central and South America and as far as Australia and Antarctica.

    Session 2793 Africa: A Focus on the Southern Cone Arthur Gerstenfeld, Ph.D. Worcester Polytechnic Institute Worcester, MA 01609 Abstract The purpose of this paper is to discuss an innovative project, partly based on a recently passed law entitled "Africa Growth and Opportunity Act" and to show how this presents opportunities for universities and for businesses. The first part of this paper discusses some of the background regarding U. S. and Africa. The second part of the paper describes a project starting in summer 2001 that we believe may impact many students and faculty at our university and at others. The final portion of the paper presents a view of the future role of teaching in terms of Africa and other developing nations. Introduction The purpose of this paper is to show the importance of increasing our focus on Africa rather than avoiding it. There are enormous problems that exist on the continent but unless we make attempts to work with this part of the world, those problems will become worse and there is no doubt that the problems will spread to other countries in other parts of the world, including United States. In this paper the emphasis will be on Namibia and South Africa. There are increasing expressions of Africa indignation at Western countries tepid response to local efforts to turn around the Africa economies.i Foreign investment in sub- Saharan Africa increased by 17 percent during the 1900’s to reach $6 billion in 1999. However that is now flattened off. Colonial rule ended in Namibia in 1990 while apartheid was dismantled in South Africa in 1994.

  • Controlling Chagas Disease in the Southern Cone of South America
    Case 12 Controlling Chagas Disease in the Southern Cone of South America Geographic area: Seven countries in South America’s southern cone: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Para- guay, Uruguay, and Peru Health condition: In the early 990s, Chagas disease was ranked as the most serious parasitic disease in Latin America. The disease was endemic in all seven countries of the southern cone, and wavering politi- cal commitment and reinfestation of the insect vectors across borders hampered efforts to control the disease. Global importance of the health condition today: Today an estimated million people in 5 Latin American countries are infected with Chagas disease. The disease also plagues northern South America, Central America, and Mexico, as well as the remaining pockets in the southern cone. Intervention or program: The Southern Cone Initiative to Control/Eliminate Chagas was launched in 99 under the leadership of the Pan American Health Organization. Spray teams operated by ministries of health have treated more than 2.5 million homes across the region with long-lasting pyrethroid insecti- cides. Houses in poor rural areas have been improved to eliminate the insect’s hiding places, and blood is screened for Chagas disease. Cost and cost-effectiveness: Financial resources for the regional program, provided by each of the seven countries, have totaled more than $400 million since 99. The intervention is considered among the most cost-effective interventions in public health, at just $37 per disability adjusted life year saved in Brazil. Impact: Incidence in the seven countries covered by the initiative fell by an average of 94 percent by 2000.

    geopolitics of gas working paper series NATURAL GAS PIPELINES IN THE SOUTHERN CONE david r mares Natural Gas Pipelines in The Southern Cone David R. Mares Working Paper #29 May 2004 Prepared for the Geopolitics of Natural Gas Study, a joint project of the Program on Energy and Sustainable Development at Stanford University and the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy of Rice University. About the Program on Energy and Sustainable Development The Program on Energy and Sustainable Development at Stanford University is an interdisciplinary research program focused on the economic and environmental consequences of global energy consumption. Its studies examine the development of global natural gas markets, reform of electric power markets, and how the availability of modern energy services, such as electricity, can affect the process of economic growth in the world’s poorest regions. The Program also works on legal and regulatory issues surrounding the development of an effective international regime to address the issues of global climate change. The Program, established in September 2001, includes a global network of scholars—based at centers of excellence on six continents—in law, political science, economics and engineering. The Program is part of the Center for Environmental Science and Policy at the Stanford Institute for International Studies.

Forests and forest management have changed substantially over the past 25 years. Overall, positive progress has been made to save and restore forests over this period, according to the Global Forest Resources Assessment Report 2015 (FRA 2015). While the extent of the world’s forests continues to decline as the human population grows and demand for food and land increases, the rate of net forest loss has been cut by over 50 percent. At the same time, the attention paid to sustainable forest management has never been higher: more land is designated as permanent forest, more measurement, monitoring, reporting, planning and stakeholder involvement is taking place, and the legal framework for sustaining forest management is nearly universal. Larger areas are being designated for conservation of biodiversity at the same time as forests are meeting increasing demand for forest products and services. 2. FRA 2015 contains results for 234 countries and territories, including contributions from 155 countries representing the hard work of national correspondents who prepared country reports that present government forest statistics in a common format. When FRA began in 1948, FAO was the only organization collecting and reporting global forest resource information.
