The Washington Conference designated tho United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) as Secretariat of the Gtobal Programme of Action and requested that, as co_ordinator and catalyst of environmental activities within the United Nations system and beyond, tt should through its programmes and secretariat rote: (a) Promoteand fadlitate implementation of the programme ofAction at the naucnauevek (b) Promote and facilitate implementation at the regional, including sub-regional tevel through, in particular a revitalisation of the UNEP regiunal seas programme; and (e) Playa catalytic role in the implementation at the international level with other organisations and institutions. The present overview was commissioned by the Co-ordination Office of lhe GPA in eo-operation with the Regional Co-ordinating Unit (RCU) of the West and Central Africa Aelion Plan (WACAFIRCU) to assist the countries of the West and Central African region in their efforts to proteel the marine environment and achieve sustainable development. This overview will also be used to provide data and information for a global review on land-based sources and activities affeeling the quality of the marine, ooastel and aS80dated freshwater environment. currently being prepared (under the leadership of UNEP) by the working group in Marjne Environmental Assessments of the Joint Group of Experts of the ScientifiG A,peels of Marine Environmental Protection {GESAMP). The present overview identifies and aSsesses the problems related to land· based aciivities rorcountries for which information was found and the region as a whole. Executive Summary This doCtlmenl provkJes a regional oven/lew Dn land-based sources ;md acnvmss affect'lng the marine, coastal and associated rresrwater environment in the West and Central African region. It addresses natural condffions and processes, anthrop~enic impacts and ils sucio-€cQJlDmic implications, including losscs of cultural herjtage snes. This overview also contains information on emerging and forseeabje problems in the rogion, proposing priorities fur action including regional and internatiOllal ectlvltes fur cooperation. This cocument encompasses the following nations; Angola, Benin, Chad, Congo (Democratic Republic), C~te d'ivoire, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, GUinea-Bissau, Uberia, Mauri1ania, Nigeria, Sao Tome and Principoe, Senegal and Togo. In summary, information received from various WACAF oounlfies and obtained from a number 01 other sources shows tha! the major issu"" related to lhe marine, coastal and associated freshwater environment pollution in the region include; (a) The decline of water quality, due to land-based human activities, SUCll as lhe introduction of sewage and waste watcr /rom industrial, domeslic and agricultural run off as weli as coastal urbaniLatilJl1; (b) Physical degradation and habilal modification; and (e) Fishery resources deplelion and the loss of mm;no biodiversity The sccto-eccnomlc and cultural implications can be tremendous in tenns of income reduction arising from a loss of fisheries stocks and c.a1chas, recreation and tourism amenHies, increase 01 waler lreatment and coesat ~rol8ction costs.

  • The History of Banjul, the Gambia, 1816 -1965
    HEART OF BANJUL: THE HISTORY OF BANJUL, THE GAMBIA, 1816 -1965 By Matthew James Park A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History- Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT HEART OF BANJUL: THE HISTORY OF BANJUL, THE GAMBIA, 1816-1965 By Matthew James Park This dissertation is a history of Banjul (formerly Bathurst), the capital city of The Gambia during the period of colonial rule. It is the first dissertation-length history of the city. “Heart of Banjul” engages with the history of Banjul (formerly Bathurst); the capital city of The Gambia. Based on a close reading of archival and primary sources, including government reports and correspondences, missionary letters, journals, and published accounts, travelers accounts, and autobiographical materials, the dissertation attempts to reconstruct the city and understand how various parts of the city came together out of necessity (though never harmoniously). In the spaces where different kinds of people, shifting power structures, and nonhuman actors came together something which could be called a city emerged. Chapter 1, “Intestines of the State,” covers most of the 19 th century and traces how the proto-colonial state and its interlocutors gradually erected administration over The Gambia. Rather than a teleology of colonial takeover, the chapter presents the creation of the colonial state as a series of stops and starts experienced as conflicts between the Bathurst administration and a number of challengers to its sovereignty including Gambian warrior kings, marabouts, criminals, French authorities, the British administration in Sierra Leone, missionaries, merchants, and disease. Chapter 2, “The Circulatory System,” engages with conflicts between the state, merchants, Gambian kings, and urban dwellers.

    HDGambiaOFFLITH.qxd 8/7/08 11:32 AM Page 1 AFRICA HISTORY HISTORICAL DICTIONARIES OF AFRICA, NO. 109 HUGHES & FOURTH EDITION PERFECT The Gambia achieved independence from Great Britain on 18 February 1965. Despite its small size and population, it was able to establish itself as a func- tioning parliamentary democracy, a status it retained for nearly 30 years. The Gambia thus avoided the common fate of other African countries, which soon fell under authoritarian single-party rule or experienced military coups. In addi- tion, its enviable political stability, together with modest economic success, enabled it to avoid remaining under British domination or being absorbed by its larger French-speaking neighbor, Senegal. It was also able to defeat an attempted coup d’état in July 1981, but, ironically, when other African states were returning to democratic government, Gambian democracy finally suc- Historical Dictionary of Dictionary Historical cumbed to a military coup on 22 July 1994.
