THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC and Small Arms Survey by Eric G
SMALL ARMS: A REGIONAL TINDERBOX A REGIONAL ARMS: SMALL AND REPUBLIC AFRICAN THE CENTRAL Small Arms Survey By Eric G. Berman with Louisa N. Lombard Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies 47 Avenue Blanc, 1202 Geneva, Switzerland p +41 22 908 5777 f +41 22 732 2738 e [email protected] w www.smallarmssurvey.org THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC AND SMALL ARMS A REGIONAL TINDERBOX ‘ The Central African Republic and Small Arms is the most thorough and carefully researched G. Eric By Berman with Louisa N. Lombard report on the volume, origins, and distribution of small arms in any African state. But it goes beyond the focus on small arms. It also provides a much-needed backdrop to the complicated political convulsions that have transformed CAR into a regional tinderbox. There is no better source for anyone interested in putting the ongoing crisis in its proper context.’ —Dr René Lemarchand Emeritus Professor, University of Florida and author of The Dynamics of Violence in Central Africa ’The Central African Republic, surrounded by warring parties in Sudan, Chad, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, lies on the fault line between the international community’s commitment to disarmament and the tendency for African conflicts to draw in their neighbours. The Central African Republic and Small Arms unlocks the secrets of the breakdown of state capacity in a little-known but pivotal state in the heart of Africa. It also offers important new insight to options for policy-makers and concerned organizations to promote peace in complex situations.’ —Professor William Reno Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Political Science, Northwestern University Photo: A mutineer during the military unrest of May 1996. -

DRAFT WIDER Development Conference Public economics for development 5-6 July 2017 | Maputo, Mozambique This is a draft version of a conference paper submitted for presentation at UNU-WIDER’s conference, held in Maputo on 5-6 July 2017.

The impact of oil exploitation on wellbeing in Chad Abstract This study assesses the impact of oil revenues on wellbeing in Chad. Data used come from the two last Chad Household Consumption and Informal Sector Surveys ECOSIT 2 & 3 conducted in 2003 and 2011 by the National Institute of Statistics and Demographic Studies. A synthetic index of multidimensional wellbeing (MDW) is first estimated using a multiple components analysis based on a large set of welfare indicators. The Difference-in-Difference approach is then employed to assess the impact of oil revenues on the average MDW at departmental level. Results show that departments receiving intense oil transfers increased their MDW about 35% more than those disadvantaged by the oil revenues redistribution policy. Also, the farther a department is from the capital city N’Djamena, the lower its average MDW. Economic inclusion may be better promoted in Chad if oil revenues fit local development needs and are effectively directed to the poorest departments.

worki! ownng pap er 2017-06 Universite Laval The impact of oil exploitation on wellbeing in Chad Gadom Djal Gadom Armand Mboutchouang Kountchou Gbetoton Nadège Adèle Djossou Gilles Quentin Kane Abdelkrim Araar February 2017 i The impact of oil exploitation on wellbeing in Chad Abstract This study assesses the impact of oil revenues on wellbeing in Chad using data from the two last Chad Household Consumption and Informal Sector Surveys (ECOSIT 2 & 3), conducted in 2003 and 2011, respectively, by the National Institute of Statistics for Economics and Demographic Studies (INSEED) and, from the College for Control and monitoring of Oil Revenues (CCSRP). To achieve the research objective, we first estimate a synthetic index of multidimensional wellbeing (MDW) based on a large set of welfare indicators. Then, the Difference-in-Difference (DID) approach is used to assess the impact of oil revenues on the average MDW at departmental level. We find evidence that departments receiving intense oil transfers increased their MDW about 35% more than those disadvantaged by the oil revenues redistribution policy. Moreover, the further a department is from the capital city N’Djamena, the lower its average MDW. We conclude that to better promote economic inclusion in Chad, the government should implement a specific policy to better direct the oil revenue investment in the poorest departments.

COUNTRY Food Security Update
WEST AFRICA Food Security Outlook October 2014 to March 2015 Atypical rainfall conditions, conflict, and the Ebola outbreak increase food insecurity across West Africa KEY MESSAGES Figure 1. Most likely estimated food security outcomes for October through December 2014 Ongoing harvests are improving household and market stock levels. Despite the late start to the season in several areas, overall crop production levels are expected to be average to above average throughout the region. However, below-average production is expected in Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, northeastern Nigeria, the Central African Republic, and localized areas of other Sahelian countries. Overall, the pastoral situation in the Sahel is satisfactory. However, livestock production could be below average for the second year in a row in several pastoral zones, particularly in eastern Niger, Source: FEWS NET Mauritania, and Senegal. This will cause transhumant livestock in these areas to migrate earlier than usual. Figure 2. Most likely estimated food security outcomes for January through March 2015 With lower production levels and delayed harvests, food insecurity will remain at Stressed (IPC Phase 2) levels until January 2015 in southeastern Niger, as well as the Senegal River Valley and the agropastoral zone of Mauritania. In Mauritania, the 2015 lean season will also arrive early, contributing to Crisis (IPC Phase 3) food insecurity between February and March 2015. Stressed (IPC Phase 2) and Crisis (IPC Phase 3) levels of food insecurity will persist in northeastern Nigeria and the Central African Republic through March 2015 due to the effects of the conflict and poor crop production Source: FEWS NET in these areas. -
