    COMO PODEM AS COMUNIDADES COSTEIRAS ENVOLVER-SE E BENEFICIAR DO PROGRAMA BCLME : UMA ANÁLISE I. RELATÓRIO DA VISITA A ANGOLA Fevereiro 2004 Como Podem as Comunidades Costeiras Envolver-se e Beneficiar do Programa BCLME: Uma Análise I. Relatório da Visita a Angola i O Programa do Grande Ecossistema Marinho da Corrente de Benguela (BCLME) visa a gestão deste ecossistema único de afloramento costeiro que acompanha as costas de Angola, Namíbia e África do Sul. Financiado pelo portfólio de Águas Internacionais do Fundo para o Ambiente Mundial (GEF), o Programa é implementado pelo Programa das Nações Unidas para o Desenvolvimento (PNUD), sendo o Gabinete das Nações Unidas para os Serviços de Apoio aos Projectos (UNOPS) a agência executora. Os três países membros asseguram financiamento adicional através de contribuições em espécie. Ao longo dos 4 000 km de costa vivem comunidades que dependem, a diferentes níveis, dos recursos naturais deste ecossistema, desempenhando um papel importante na gestão e saúde dos recursos costeiros. Ainda que o envolvimento das comunidades costeiras não seja o foco principal do Programa, é cada vez mais aceite que as actividades ao nível comunitário podem contribuir significativamente para o sucesso global do Programa, ao mesmo tempo que criam oportunidades para desenvolvimento comunitário. Foi neste contexto que a EcoAfrica Environmental Consultants realizou um estudo de ‘primeira paroximação’ para analisar como as comunidades costeiras podem contribuir para a gestão do BCLME e posicionar-se de modo a obter o máximo proveito dos recursos costeiros, bem como para recomendar qual o papel que o Programa BCLME pode desempenhar para atingir este objectivo.

  • Trade and the Merchant Community of the Loango Coast in The
    Trade and the Merchant Community of the Loango Coast in the Eighteenth Century Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Hull by Stacey Jean Muriel Sommerdyk Honors BA (University of Western Ontario) MA (York University) May 2012 ii Synopsis This thesis explores the political, economic and cultural transformation of the Loango Coast during the era of the transatlantic slave trade from the point of contact with Europeans in the sixteenth century until the end of the eighteenth century, with particular focus on the eighteenth century. While a number of previous studies of the West Central African slave trade have focused principally on the role of the Portuguese on the Angola Coast, this thesis makes a new contribution by evaluating the balance of power between Dutch and Loango Coast merchant communities. In doing so, this thesis concludes that well into the eighteenth century, local African religious and political traditions remained relatively unchanged on the Loango Coast, especially in comparison to their southern neighbours in Angola. Drawing upon detailed records compiled by the Middelburgse Commercie Compangie (MCC), the thesis builds upon an original database which accounts for approximately 10,000 slaves sold by 640 identified African merchants to the Dutch Middelburg Company over the course of 5,000 transactions. Expanding upon the work of Phyllis Martin and other scholars, this thesis highlights a distinction between the Loango and the Angola coasts based on models of engagement with European traders; furthermore, it draws attention to the absence of European credit data in the MCC slave purchasing balance sheets; and, finally, it explores the difficulties involved in procuring slaves via long distance trade.
