The question is therefore being asked about the extent of alternative production areas in southern Africa (particularly in selected neighboring countries) for the range of crops which are presently produced sub-optimally under irrigation in South Africa. The objective of this study is therefore to provide an answer to this question with adequate confidence to allow the rational pursuit of this concept which could have far-reaching mutual benefit for southern African countries. The countries that were considered are Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Zambia.

  • Global Suicide Rates and Climatic Temperature
    SocArXiv Preprint: May 25, 2020 Global Suicide Rates and Climatic Temperature Yusuke Arima1* [email protected] Hideki Kikumoto2 [email protected] ABSTRACT Global suicide rates vary by country1, yet the cause of this variability has not yet been explained satisfactorily2,3. In this study, we analyzed averaged suicide rates4 and annual mean temperature in the early 21st century for 183 countries worldwide, and our results suggest that suicide rates vary with climatic temperature. The lowest suicide rates were found for countries with annual mean temperatures of approximately 20 °C. The correlation suicide rate and temperature is much stronger at lower temperatures than at higher temperatures. In the countries with higher temperature, high suicide rates appear with its temperature over about 25 °C. We also investigated the variation in suicide rates with climate based on the Köppen–Geiger climate classification5, and found suicide rates to be low in countries in dry zones regardless of annual mean temperature. Moreover, there were distinct trends in the suicide rates in island countries. Considering these complicating factors, a clear relationship between suicide rates and temperature is evident, for both hot and cold climate zones, in our dataset. Finally, low suicide rates are typically found in countries with annual mean temperatures within the established human thermal comfort range. This suggests that climatic temperature may affect suicide rates globally by effecting either hot or cold thermal stress on the human body. KEYWORDS Suicide rate, Climatic temperature, Human thermal comfort, Köppen–Geiger climate classification Affiliation: 1 Department of Architecture, Polytechnic University of Japan, Tokyo, Japan.

  • Kampala Declaration on Community Paralegals
    Kampala Declaration on Community Paralegals Kampala, Uganda July 26, 2012 Preamble We, the participants of a regional meeting on community paralegals held in Kampala on July 9- 11, 2012, recognize that in Africa and elsewhere the promises of law and government are often unmet. A health ministry pledges to treat tuberculosis, but many of its clinics have no drugs in stock; a mining firm uses its influence in the capital to override customary land rights; a fruit seller fails to obtain a trading license, because an official demands a bribe. Many people cannot avail themselves of nominally good rules and systems, because of cost, dysfunction, corruption, or abuse of power. In other cases, the law itself is unjust. As a result, many citizens are denied even basic rights to dignity, safety, and livelihood. We represent over fifty organizations working to advance justice in twenty African countries. Our collective experience has shown that community paralegals can help bridge the gap between law and society. Community paralegals use knowledge of law and government and tools like mediation, organizing, education, and advocacy to seek concrete solutions to instances of injustice. Community paralegals can straddle plural legal systems, engaging both formal and traditional institutions based on the needs of a given case. Paralegals are linked to lawyers who provide guidance and who can resort to litigation if frontline methods fail. Community paralegals have been active in Africa for decades, at least since the 1950s, when paralegals began assisting black South Africans to navigate and resist the codes of apartheid. Community paralegal efforts are diverse.

Academic Editors: Sune Linder and Timothy A. Martin Received: 15 December 2015; Accepted: 16 February 2016; Published: 4 March 2016 Abstract: Variability in woody plant species, vegetation assemblages and anthropogenic activities derails the efforts to have common approaches for estimating biomass and carbon stocks in Africa. In order to suggest management options, it is important to understand the vegetation dynamics and the major drivers governing the observed conditions. This study uses data from 29 sentinel landscapes (4640 plots) across the southern Africa. We used T-Square distance method to sample trees. Allometric models were used to estimate aboveground tree biomass from which aboveground biomass carbon stock (AGBCS) was derived for each site. Results show average tree density of 502 trees¨ ha´1 with semi-arid areas having the highest (682 trees¨ ha´1) and arid regions the lowest (393 trees¨ ha´1).
