  • Linkages Across the Continuum of HIV Services for Key Populations Affected by HIV (LINKAGES) Project Cooperative Agreement No
    Linkages Across the Continuum of HIV Services for Key Populations Affected by HIV (LINKAGES) Project Cooperative Agreement No. AID-OAA-A-14-00045 DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF THE CONGO QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORT JULY 1 TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2018 OCTOBER 31, 2018 LINKAGES Quarterly Report (July 1 – September 30, 2018) - DRC 0 LINKAGES DRC Quarterly Progress Report July 1 to September 30, 2018 Overall Achievement This quarter marks the end of strong year of implementation for Linkages across the Continuum of HIV Services for Key Populations Affected by HIV (LINKAGES) Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The project exceeded all annual targets for female sex workers (FSWs) and reached most targets for men who have sex with men (MSM). This quarter (Q4), case finding rates, linkage to care, and viral load (VL) testing coverage all increased notably compared with Q3. The project continued to benefit from central TOM+ funds, which were allocated to targeted technical assistance (TA) from LINKAGES headquarters (HQ), as well as to training and seed funding to improve implementation. An index testing strategy was developed and incorporated into activities, and HIV self-testing started. Enhanced peer outreach approach (EPOA) activities and risk assessment tools were reinforced to improve reach and testing services. Additionally, LINKAGES DRC signed a subagreement with a key population (KP)/MSM-led organization (Jeunialissime), launched a community service delivery point (CSDP) with a trained nurse in Kasumbalesa, and conducted programmatic mapping in two health zones (Rwashi and Kampemba) that will be covered in FY19. 1. Summary of Key Results • 3,390 FSWs, 1,338 MSM, and 735 FSW clients were reached with HIV prevention interventions.

Copper’s Corollaries: Trade and Labour Migration in the Copperbelt (1910-1940) Enid Guene University of Cologne The geopolitical importance of the mining industry in Zambia and Katanga, and the rural-urban migration patterns that it brought about, has been the subject of many studies. And yet, the extent to which these industries were interdependent is often downplayed or overlooked. Looking more closely at the history of the Zambian and Katangese Copperbelts, one can see that, despite their separateness, there was interplay between them. During the British South Africa Company rule of Rhodesia (1899-1924), Northern Rhodesia was developed as an important labour and food reserve for the Katangese mines.

Box 30552 Nairobi, KENYA Tel: +254 (0)20 762 1234 Fax: +254 (0)20 762 3927 E-mail: [email protected] Web: http://www.unep.org About the Post-Conflict Environmental Assessment In response to a request from the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), in 2009 the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) initiated a national, multi-thematic assessment of priority environmental issues facing the country. Within the context of the DRC’s ongoing peace consolidation and economic reconstruction, the main objectives of this assessment were to: (i) provide insight into and raise awareness of the key environmental and natural resource management challenges; and (ii) inform rational planning and help catalyse investments by the government and the international community. UNEP plans to follow up on its comprehensive DRC assessment by developing a country programme which will guide future interventions; this is a successful model implemented in over 10 post-conflict countries since 1999. Following the preparation of detailed scoping and desk studies, 14 separate reconnaissance field visits covering all provinces and eco-regions of the DRC were carried out by a joint UNEP- Ministry of Environment, Nature Conservation and Tourism (MECNT) team. The significant investment in fieldwork covering the whole country is one of the defining features of this assessment, which comprised extensive interviews and focus group discussions, site visits, photographic and video documentation, remote sensing and mapping, and in-situ field measurements as well as sampling for laboratory analysis.

  • Angola’S Chinese-Built Rail Link and the Scramble to Access the Region’S Resources
    ANGOLA’S CHINESE-BUILT RAIL LINK AND THE SCRAMBLE TO ACCESS THE REGION’S RESOURCES By John Grobler First published in The Africa Report in 2014 JOHN GROBLER is a veteran investigative reporter based in Windhoek from where he reports on the primary resource industries in Namibia, Angola and the DRC. He was born in Namibia, educated in South Africa at the Universities of Cape Town and Stellenbosch and briefly worked in banking before joining the Windhoek Observer in 1991. He subsequently became news editor for the Windhoek Advertiser before going on to work for the Associated Press and Voice of America. Over the years, he has won several media awards, including the CNN Business Reporting award. John’s research on the Benguela Railway, which involved travelling 8,000 km through Zambia, the DRC and Angola over a period of 30 days, formed part of a China-in-Africa transnational investigation with the Forum of African Investigative Reporters (FAIR), co-financed by a grant from the Wits China-Africa Reporting Project. Swiss commodity giant Trafigura, partnering with the politically connected Angolan company Cochan Limited and the mysterious China International Fund, has quietly gained total control of Angola’s railway infrastructure, fuel distribution network and iron ore deposits via a vast global network of offshore companies registered in various tax havens. Using funds generated by Angola’s oil sales to China, the consortium has built up a vast business empire known as the DT Group. It consists of property, fuel, steel-making, shipping and logistics holdings that could The 1,344 km Benguela rail line would connect Katanga to have profound economic and political implications for all Lobito port in Angola.
