  • SOMALIA - May 2011
    Minority Rights Group International (MRG) - individual UPR submission - SOMALIA - May 2011 1. Introductory executive summary 1.1 The situation and struggle for minority rights in Somalia must be considered in the context of Somalia in the last 20 years of state collapse, civil war and resulting humanitarian disaster. Immense violations of basic human rights have affected all Somalis, majorities (Darod, Hawiye, Dir and Rahanweyn) and minorities alike (Bantu, Gaboye, Madhiban, Musse Deriyo, Tumal, Yibro, Benadiri, Barawani, Bajuni, Boni, Ashraf and Shekhal). However, majority groups benefit from a traditional clan structure that has afforded them protection and privilege not available to minorities, who, regardless of the conflict, continue to suffer marginalization and exclusion from mainstream economic, social and political life, thanks to a legacy of slavery, customary segregation, dispossession and displacement. Somalia’s minorities are diverse and not framed simply by elements of ethnic, religious or linguistic differentiation. Their diversity also rests on social and historical distinctions between minorities and the pastoralist majorities. 1.2 Civil war, and later an Islamist insurgency against a weak transitional government in south-central Somalia, have forced thousands of minorities from their homes and lands, both to other parts of Somalia and abroad. Minorities have been targeted due to lack of protection as well as, in some cases, for their religious or other traditional beliefs and practices. Through field research results, MRG has found that minority women, in particular, suffer egregious abuse in the context of displacement. In 2009, MRG’s researchers, visiting internally displaced person (IDP) camps in semi-autonomous Puntland in northeastern Somalia, were told of a disturbing and persistent pattern of rape of minority women, perpetrated by majority men and sometimes by members of the Puntland police, army or security service.

De quelles informations dispose-t-on sur la situation des droits humains pour les membres de la caste des Gabooye en Somalie ? 2. Dans quelle mesure l’État somalien peut-il protéger les membres de la caste des Gabooye ? Les informations reposent sur une recherche limitée dans le temps (recherche rapide) dans des documents accessibles au public actuellement à disposition de l’OSAR. 2 Les Gabooye en Somalie 2.1 Clans et minorités en Somalie Les Gabooye (connus aussi sous le nom de Midgan, Madhiban et Musse Deriyo) ne constituent pas un clan, mais un groupe minoritaire. Selon un rapport de l’Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada (IRB) de décembre 2012, les Gabooye (autre orthographe possible : Gaboye, aussi connu sous le nom de Midgan) forment un groupe minoritaire en Somalie et une « caste professionnelle » qui exerce des métiers traditionnels. Lors d’une présentation organisée en mai 2009 par l’Austrian Center for Country of Origin and Asylum Research (ACCORD), le Professeur Joakim Gundel, l’un des politologues spécialisés de la région Somali, a déclaré que la majorité de la population somalienne était composée de Somali, une ethnie d’éleveurs nomades appartenant aux clans dits « nobles » des Darood, des Hawiye, des Dir et, selon le point de vue, des Isaaq.

Brown Department of Geology & Geophysics, University of Utah 115 South 1460 East, Room 205, Salt Lake City, Utah 84112, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT The Koobi Fora region east of Lake Turkana in northern Kenya ranges in elevation from ca. 360 to 560 m, has a mean annual temperature of ca. 32ºC, and rainfall of ca. 130 mm per year. The area, much of which lies within Sibiloi National Park, supports a diverse flora. Here we provide a list of 367 plant species (361 angiosperms) collected from an area of about 2600 km2 between 2012 and 2014, compare the region’s angiosperm flora with the only other documented floras nearby, discuss the principal vegetation types in the study area, and highlight occurrences of some less common plants and plants of restricted distribution. Some 137 plant species (131 angiosperms) are newly documented in this region, none of which have been recorded in the Marsabit region to the east-southeast or in the lower Omo Valley to the northwest. Comparison of the flora of this region with reported floras of the Omo Valley and the Marsabit region show that only 98 species are common to all three areas, and that each area has unique taxa that make up about one-third of its angiosperm flora.
