UN drivers have reported on three additional active weighbridges: Barra do Dande and Barra do Kwanza near Cabo Ledo (Bengo Province); Municipality of Humpata (Huila Province). Travel Time Matrix Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Road Security There is a common agreement amongst transporters interviewed that Angola has not yet achieved sufficient road security, below some factors: Conditions of the road range between fair and bad. Mainly common in the west, roads link towns along the coast, but the further east to the inland provinces the worse road deterioration gets. Bridges and weighbridges are a pivotal compliment for the road system in Angola however, the need of replacement of old structures or its rehabilitation has been slow and/or not up to speed as per the needs of the transport industry. Bridges, weighbridges and roads are not protected by regular inspection and rehabilitation, and above all the application of regulations related to e.g. axle load limits, therefore, being common to notice vehicles overloaded. Speaking with transporters while all aware of damages caused by overloading of trucks none knew the contents of the law and/or there is acknowledgement that non-compliance is general.

  • Taxonomy of Tropical West African Bivalves V. Noetiidae
    Bull. Mus. nati. Hist, nat., Paris, 4' sér., 14, 1992, section A, nos 3-4 : 655-691. Taxonomy of Tropical West African Bivalves V. Noetiidae by P. Graham OLIVER and Rudo VON COSEL Abstract. — Five species of Noetiidae are described from tropical West Africa, defined here as between 23° N and 17°S. The Noetiidae are represented by five genera, and four new taxa are introduced : Stenocista n. gen., erected for Area gambiensis Reeve; Sheldonella minutalis n. sp., Striarca lactea scoliosa n. subsp. and Striarca lactea epetrima n. subsp. Striarca lactea shows considerable variation within species. Ecological factors and geographical clines are invoked to explain some of this variation but local genetic isolation could not be excluded. The relationships of the shallow water West African noetiid species are analysed and compared to the faunas of the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Panamic and Indo- Pacific regions. Stenocista is the only genus endemic to West Africa. A general discussion on the relationships of all the shallow water West African Arcoidea is presented. The level of generic endemism is low and there is clear evidence of circumtropical patterns of similarity between species. The greatest affinity is with the Indo-Pacific but this pattern is not consistent between subfamilies. Notably the Anadarinae have greatest similarity to the Panamic faunal province. Résumé. — Description de cinq espèces de Noetiidae d'Afrique occidentale tropicale, ici définie entre 23° N et 17° S. Les Noetiidae sont représentés par cinq genres.

    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.

  • The Expansion of Slavery in Benguela During the Nineteenth Century
    IRSH (), pp. – doi:./S © Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis The Expansion of Slavery in Benguela During the Nineteenth Century M ARIANA P. CANDIDO Department of History, University of Notre Dame O’Shaughnessy, Notre Dame, IN USA E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: This article explores the nature and expansion of slavery in Benguela, in West Central Africa, during the nineteenth century, engaging with the scholarship on second slavery. Robert Palmer, Eric Hobsbawm, and Janet Polasky have framed the nineteenth century as the age of contagious liberty, yet, in Benguela, and elsewhere along the African coast, the institution of slavery expanded, in part to attend to the European and North American demand for natural resources. In the wake of the end of the slave trade, plantation slavery spread along the African coast to supply the grow- ing demand in Europe and North America for cotton, sugar, and natural resources such as wax, ivory, rubber, and gum copal.

For the thousands of people who remained in captivity in Benguela, the nineteenth century continued to be a moment of oppression, forced labor, and extreme violence, not an age of abolition. After the abolition of slave exports, local merchants and recently arrived immi- grants from Portugal and Brazil set up plantations around Benguela making extensive use of unfree labor.
