Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2015) 11:60 DOI 10.1186/s13002-015-0046-y JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Medicinal plants sold in the markets of Antananarivo, Madagascar Maria Nirina Randriamiharisoa1*, Alyse R. Kuhlman2, Vololoniaina Jeannoda1, Harison Rabarison1, Nivo Rakotoarivelo3, Tabita Randrianarivony3, Fortunat Raktoarivony3, Armand Randrianasolo2 and Rainer W. Bussmann2 Abstract Background: This study focuses on the large outdoor markets of the capital of Madagascar, Antananarivo. As the largest metropolitan area in Madagascar with a population of nearly two million, the region has great capacity for consumption of medicinal plant remedies despite numerous pharmacies. Medicinal plant use spans all socioeconomic levels, and the diverse metropolitan population allows us to study a wide variety of people who consume these plants for medical purposes. The purpose of this study is to identify and generate a list of medicinal plants sold in the traditional markets with a focus on those collected in the forests around Antananarivo, get an idea of the quantities of medicinal plants sold in the markets around Antananarivo, and assess the economy of the medicinal plant markets. Methods: In order to determine which medicinal plants are most consumed in Antananarivo, ethnobotanical enquiries were conducted in the five main markets of the capital city. Ethnobotanical surveys were conducted with medicinal plant traders, suppliers, harvesters and cultivators, with voucher specimens created from the plants discussed.

  • Impact of COVID-19 on Children's Education in Africa Submission
    Impact of Covid-19 on Children’s Education in Africa Submission to The African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child 35th Ordinary Session 31 August – 4 September 2020 Human Rights Watch Observer status N⁰. 025/2017 Human Rights Watch respectfully submits this written presentation to contribute testimony from children to the discussion on the impact of Covid-19 on children at the 35th Ordinary Session of the African Committee of Experts on the Rights and Welfare of the Child. Between April and August 2020, Human Rights Watch conducted 57 remote interviews with students, parents, teachers, and education officials across Burkina Faso, Cameroon, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Madagascar, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, and Zambia to learn about the effects of the pandemic on children’s education. Our research shows that school closures caused by the pandemic exacerbated previously existing inequalities, and that children who were already most at risk of being excluded from a quality education have been most affected. Children Receiving No Education Many children received no education after schools closed across the continent in March 2020.1 “My child is no longer learning, she is only waiting for the reopening to continue with her studies,” said a mother of a 9-year-old girl in eastern Congo.2 A mother of two preschool-aged children in North Kivu, Congo, said, “It does not make me happy that my children are no longer going to school. Years don’t wait for them. They have already lost a lot... What will become

  • English Version: Submission of Comments As the Follow-Up of the Minamata Convention's COP3 Decision About Dental Amalgam
    English version: Submission of comments as the follow-up of the Minamata Convention’s COP3 Decision about Dental Amalgam By: The African Region To: To the Secretariat, Minamata Convention on Mercury Summary: The Africa Region has long been committed to phasing out amalgam use. As government officials in the Africa Region, we advise the Secretariat that mercury-free dental materials offer benefits to the Africa Region on many levels: more widespread oral health care, 21st century minimally-invasive dentistry, a cleaner environment, and a better public health system. For African budgets, too, they are better: Rather than spend millions of dollars of the infrastructure budgets on separators (it is worth to recall that currently, there is no dental clinic operating with separator in Africa as revealed by the survey performed by African Minamata Focal Points prior COP 3 in November 2017), operation maintenance, mercury-waste facilities, and transportation; rather than spend thousands of dollars per child on neurologically-damaged medical conditions . it is much wiser to choose the pollution-free option, with the much smaller costs of dental fillings and for one-time expenses to re-tool dental schools and do classes for dentists. 1. Mercury-free alternatives provide superior dentistry to rural Africa. Mercury-free alternatives like glass ionomer can be less expensive and more accessible than amalgam. Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) was developed in Eighties in East Africa to address this weakness of amalgam, because (i) ART does not need electricity or expensive equipment; (ii) ART can address most cavities in children; and (iii) its clinics can be portable, reaching into remote villages.
