It is aimed at developing a methodology for early detection of subjects at risk of de- veloping type-2 diabetes, the prevalence of which is high in Reunion’s population. The Baker Institute in Melbourne has identified a specific lipid signature for pre-diabetes and diabetes in their population. The OMDIABRUN project is based on the transfer of this Australian expertise. It will consist in testing plasma lipids in a population at major risk ©ANNA-NGUYEN-THAI-SCALED of type-2 diabetes so as to identify a lipid signature, which will then be tested in the general population.

    Agulhas and Somali Current Large Marine Ecosystem Project Seychelles National Level Policy and Governance Assessment for Marine And Coastal Resources Final Report 11th July 2011 Prepared By: Joel Nageon de Lestang Iris Carolus PART I A. GENERAL: COUNTRY PROFILE Overview The Seychelles is an archipelago consisting of 115 granite and coral islands that occupy a land area of 445 sq. km within an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of 1.3 million sq. km in the South Western Indian Ocean between 4 and 9 degrees south of the equator. The country’s population is currently estimated at around 87,300 (2010).1 Approximately 90% of the population and infrastructure is located on the main island of Mahe. The country has a per capita income of around US$ 7,000. Tourism, fisheries and a growing industrial sector dominate the economy of the country. The Seychelles economy has undergone major structural changes since gaining independence in 1976. As recently as the early 1970’s, agriculture accounted for around 9% of total GDP, with cinnamon and copra the major exports. Today, agriculture accounts for a mere 3% of GDP, and employs less than 6% of the labour force. The opening of the international airport in 1971 transformed the economy by laying the foundations for the development of the tourism industry, which is now the principal industry in Seychelles accounting for more than 12% of GDP and around 17% of the labour force. The sector is also the main foreign exchange earner, accounting for around SR 750 million in 1999 (US$137 million). The fisheries sector is now the second most important, both in terms of foreign exchange earnings and employment.

  • Vol. 22 - Comoros
    Marubeni Research Institute 2016/09/02 Sub -Saharan Report Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the focal regions of Global Challenge 2015. These reports are by Mr. Kenshi Tsunemine, an expatriate employee working in Johannesburg with a view across the region. Vol. 22 - Comoros June 10, 2016 It was well known that Marilyn Monroe wore Chanel No. 5 perfume when she went to bed. Did you know that Chanel No. 5’s essence (essential oils) comes from the flower called ylang-ylang, which is found in the African country of Comoros? Comoros is also where the so-called “living fossils”, a rare pre-historic species of fish called coelacanths, discovered in 1938 in South Africa after having thought to be extinct, are mostly found. So this time I would like to introduce the country of Comoros, fascinating like Marilyn Monroe and a little mysterious like the coelacanths. Table 1: Comoros Country Information The Union of the Comoros is an archipelago island nation located off the coast of East Africa east of Mozambique and northwest from Madagascar. 4 main islands make up the Comoros archipelago, Grande Comore, Moheli, Anjouan and Mayotte, with Grande Comore, Moheli, and Anjouan forming the Union of Comoros and Mayotte falling under French jurisdiction as an ‘overseas department” or region. The population of the 3 islands making up the Union of the Comoros is about 800,000, while their total land area comes to 2,236 square kilometers, about the same land size as Tokyo, which makes it quite a small country. Nominal GDP is roughly $600 million, which is second from the bottom among the 45 sub-Saharan African countries, just above Sao Tome and Principe, and its population is the 5th lowest (note 1).

In addition, water resources are limited and basic infrastructures are still insufficient. WHAT WILL THE NEW STRATEGY BRING TO MAYOTTE? By encouraging the outermost regions to capitalise on their unique assets, the strategy will help them create new opportunities for their people, boost innovation in sectors like agriculture, fisheries or tourism, while deepening the cooperation with neighbour countries. For the Mayotte, the strategy could help support in particular: ✓ A solid blue economy sector, by encouraging the development of marine renewable energy, aquaculture and blue biotechnologies and local fisheries ✓ A more competitive agri-food sector with modernised production processes ✓ Enhanced mobility, employability and new skills for young people by financially

ISSN 1435-9812 i The European Centre for Minority Issues (ECMI) is a non-partisan institution founded in 1996 by the Governments of the Kingdom of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany, and the German State of Schleswig-Holstein. ECMI was established in Flensburg, at the heart of the Danish-German border region, in order to draw from the encouraging example of peaceful coexistence between minorities and majorities achieved here. ECMI’s aim is to promote interdisciplinary research on issues related to minorities and majorities in a European perspective and to contribute to the improvement of inter-ethnic relations in those parts of Western and Eastern Europe where ethno- political tension and conflict prevail. ECMI Working Papers are written either by the staff of ECMI or by outside authors commissioned by the Centre.

Blue Economy in the Indian Ocean: Governance Perspectives for Sustainable Development in the Region ABSTRACT The Indian Ocean is vital to the economies, security and livelihoods of its littoral states. However, the economic and sustainable development issues in the rim are particularly challenging since the countries, with diverse political systems, development status and agendas, are home to one- third of the world’s population that rely extensively on the marine resources for sustenance, thereby subjecting the ocean’s resources to pressures from pollution, habitat degradation, and over-exploitation.
