The United Nations World Urbanisation Prospects study (UN-Habitat, 2018) shows that the world's urban population reached 50% of the global population, and that this phenomenon is expected to increase over the next thirty years. According to the projections of UN- Habitat study, Africa will be the continent that will experience the largest urban population growth in the coming decades. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), like Tanzania and Nigeria, will be among the 10 countries with the highest rate of urban population by 2050 (Maiga and Bocquier, 2016). Urbanisation is associated with major health challenges, particularly in the African region and the DRC.

  • In Search of Peace: an Autopsy of the Political Dimensions of Violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo
    IN SEARCH OF PEACE: AN AUTOPSY OF THE POLITICAL DIMENSIONS OF VIOLENCE IN THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO By AARON ZACHARIAH HALE A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2009 1 © 2009 Aaron Zachariah Hale 2 To all the Congolese who helped me understand life’s difficult challenges, and to Fredline M’Cormack-Hale for your support and patience during this endeavor 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I was initially skeptical about attending The University of Florida (UF) in 2002 for a number of reasons, but attending UF has been one of the most memorable times of my life. I have been so fortunate to be given the opportunity to study African Politics in the Department of Political Science in a cozy little town like Gainesville. For students interested in Africa, UF’s Center for African Studies (CAS) has been such a fantastic resource and meeting place for all things African. Dr. Leonardo Villalón took over the management of CAS the same year and has led and expanded the CAS to reach beyond its traditional suit of Eastern and Southern African studies to now encompass much of the sub-region of West Africa. The CAS has grown leaps and bounds in recent years with recent faculty hires from many African and European countries to right here in the United States. In addition to a strong and committed body of faculty, I have seen in my stay of seven years the population of graduate and undergraduate students with an interest in Africa only swell, which bodes well for the upcoming generation of new Africanists.

    Proceedings, 8th African Rift Geothermal Conference Nairobi, Kenya: 2 – 8 November 2020 Project for Development of Geothermal Resources in the Ruwenzori Sector, a Preliminary Report Pacifique S. Mukandala0, Georges M. Kasay 0, 0, Vikandy S. Mambo 0,0 1Department of Geology, Université Officielle de Ruwenzori, P.O. Box 560 Butembo 2Department of Geosciences, Pan African University of Life and Earth Sciences, University of Ibadan, Nigeria 3Department of Chemistry, Université de Kinshasa Email: [email protected],[email protected] ,[email protected] Keywords: Development, Geothermal, Resources, Energy, Geology, Hot springs, DR Congo ABSTRACT The Ruwenzori sector is located in the North-Kivu province, Beni territory in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DR Congo) at the border with Uganda. It has several geothermal surface manifestations, mainly hot springs in Mutsora, Masambo, Kikura, Kyavitumbi and Kambo. All these geothermal manifestations have been mapped and are currently under geoscientific investigation. The area also has a large hydrologic network and several other geothermal fields which are yet to be discovered with further research. This paper focuses on reviewing the direct and indirect uses of known geothermal resources from which the local population of the Ruwenzori sector may benefit in the future. Applications related to direct use of geothermal manifestations include greenhouse in agriculture, hot water pool for bathing and medical benefits for tourist and local people, hot water for fish farming and other several applications. Indirect use of geothermal resources would generate energy for local communities and this would allow them to shift from traditional to modern agricultural practices. Electricity would benefit the local people in transforming products such as cocoa, palm oil, maize and preserving other crops after their harvest.

  • Displacements in the Beni Territory, North Kivu Province Briefing Note, 30 July 2010
    Displacements in the Beni Territory, North Kivu Province Briefing note, 30 July 2010 Headlines • Almost 90,000 people have been displaced in the Beni Territory of the North Kivu Province following armed confrontations. • The displaced are in need of protection, food, water, shelters, medicines and non-food items. • The presence of unaccompanied children was reported, as well as of other vulnerable people. Context • According to local authorities, almost 90,000 people are estimated to have fled their homes in the Beni Territory in the eastern North Kivu Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), following military operations between the Forces armées de la République Démocratique du Congo (FARDC) and the Allied Democratic Forces – National Army for the Liberation of Uganda (ADF- NALU). The military operation, called “Ruwenzori Operation”, started at the end of June 2010. • The ADF-NALU, based in western Uganda, was formed in 1996 and gradually expanded its activities to eastern DRC. After being largely destroyed in 2005 by the former United Nations Organization Mission in the DRC (MONUC) and the national army, this group gradually reorganised itself. • The epicentres of the fighting between the two belligerent parties, during which at least six civilians have died and dozen of people injured, are the towns of Eringeti, 85 km North of Beni and the town of Mutwanga, 42 km south-east from Beni. Fearing new attacks, the majority of the displaced population (70%) has fled preventively in different directions — from Eringeti towards the neighbouring Orientale Province, in the Ituri District — from Mutwanga towards the town of Beni and Lubango.
