Washington,D.C. 20433 U.S.A. The Working Group on Higher Education (WGHE) was founded in 1989 to strengthen collaboration between African governments, development agencies, and higher education institutions. Its goals are to improve the effectiveness of development assistance and, more broadly, to support the revitalization of African universities. The lead agency of the WGHE is the World Bank, which works closely with the Association of African Universities (AAU) in carrying out the WGHE's activities. © ADEAWorking Group on HigherEducation January 2001 Contents ASSOCIATIONFOR THE DEVELOPMENTOF EDUCATIONIN AFRICA(ADEA) 1 AFRICANDEVELOPMENT BANK (AFDB) 3 AGA KHANFOUNDATION 5 AGENCEUNIVERSITAIRE DE LA FRANCOPHONIE(EX AUPELF-UREF) 6 AUSTRIANDEVELOPMENT COOPERATION 9 BRITISHCOUNCIL 14 CARNEGIECORPORATION OF NEWYORK 16 CANADIANINTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT AGENCY (CIDA) 18 CONSEILINTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITAIRE DE LA COMMUNAUTE FRANQAISEDE BELGIQUE(C.l.U.F.) / COMMISSIONDE COOPERATION UNIVERSITAIREAU DEVELOPPEMENT(C.U.D.) 21 COMMISSIONOF THE EUROPEANCOMMUNITIES 24 COMMONWEALTHSECRETARIAT 26 DANISHMINISTRY OF FOREIGNAFFAIRS (DANIDA) 29 DEPARTMENTFOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT (DFID-UK) 31 FORDFOUNDATION 33 GERMANACADEMIC EXCHANGE SERVICE (DAAD) 36 GERMANFOUNDATION FOR INTERNATIONALDEVELOPMENT (DSE) CENTERFOR EDUCATION,SCIENCE AND DOCUMENTATION(ZED) 39 INTERNATIONALINSTITUTE FOR EDUCATIONAL PLANNING (IIEP) 42 INTERNATIONALDEVELOPMENT RESEARCH CENTER (IDRC) 43 KELLOGFOUNDATION 46 MACARTHURFOUNDATION 48 MINISTRYFOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF FINLANDI DEPARTMENT FOR INTERNATIONALDEVELOPMENT COOPERATION 51 MINISTRYOF FOREIGNAFFAIRS OF THE NETHERLANDS 53 NETHERLANDSORGANIZATION FOR INTERNATIONALCOOPERATION IN HIGHEREDUCATION (NUFFIC) 56 NORWEGIANAGENCY FOR DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION (NORAD) 58 NORWEGIANCOUNCIL OF UNIVERSITIESPROGRAM FOR DEVELOPMENTRESEARCH AND EDUCATION(NUFU) 60 ROCKEFELLERFOUNDATION 62 SWIDISHINTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT COOPERATION AGENCY (SIDA) 64 UNESCOINTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR CAPACITY BUILDING IN AFRICA 67 UNITEDNATIONS ECONOMIC COMMISSION FOR AFRICA 69 UNITEDNATIONS EDUCATION, SCIENCE AND CULTURALORGANIZATION 71 UNITEDSTATES AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONALDEVELOPMENT (USAID) 78 WORLDBANK 81 FOREWORD Over the past decade, donor assistance to higher education in Africa has been characterized by considerable fluctuation in the funding policies of individual donor agencies. These changes occur as donor agencies adjust their programs in response to strategic reviews, to shifting political mandates, and to new circumstances within the region. As a result, university and Mrinistryof education leaders find it difficult to obtain clear and comparative information on the range of donor priorities and possibilities for assistance in the field of higher education. Likewise, donor representatives are not always certain where they might look for useful donor partnerships in the emerging context of collaborative sector-wide approaches to education assistance. These problems were discussed at a WGHE meeting held at Abuja, Nigeria in December 1999. WGHE participants agreed that it would be a useful reference for both African university leaders as well as the donor community if the WGHE produced a "Directory to Development Assistance for Higher Education in Sub-Saharan Africa)" In doing so, they confirmed this activity as a formal part of the WGHE work program for the year 2000. For the purpose of producing this Directory, a survey questionnaire was designed and sent to donor agency representatives. The survey responses were supplemented by background informnationobtained from agency websites. The data were then organized and presented using a common format. A draft of the entry for each agency was sent to each agency's representative for comment, correction or clarification prior to the printing of the Directory. The Directory was compiled by Mr. Mactar Diagne, a specialist in higher education management from Senegal, with financial support from the World Bank and from the ADEA Working Group on Higher Education.

  • Estado Laico Y Sufismo En Senegal
    ANÁLISIS BABACAR SAMB Estado laico y sufismo en Senegal esde la implantación del Islam en Senegal en el siglo XI , los primeros guí - as religiosos, llamados morabitos, desempeñan el papel de consejeros de D los soberanos. También se encargan de redactar la correspondencia y de enseñar los principios religiosos a los allegados de los reyes. Gozan de una gran consideración entre las poblaciones porque guardan el saber esotérico y exotérico. En suma, son los depositarios del saber y los reguladores de la marcha del poder lo - cal. Las poblaciones se ponen bajo su protección contra las exacciones y las injusti - cias de las que son víctimas por parte de los monarcas no islamizados o apenas is - lamizados. La dominación colonial en Senegal, a partir del siglo XIX , tiene como consecuen - cia el desmantelamiento de las monarquías locales y el fortalecimiento de la autori - dad de los morabitos, a menudo hostiles a la penetración colonial y los valores que esta lleva. Los morabitos se convierten, entonces, en los protectores de las pobla - ciones oprimidas por el poder colonial francés. Consciente de su influencia, Francia trata de integrarlos en su política musulma - na con el fin de hacer de ellos unos aliados seguros susceptibles de defender sus in - tereses, mediante la satisfacción de sus necesidades materiales. De esto surge una acomodación entre política, religión y tradición. 1 En caso de fracaso de la integración, incluso de la asimilación, son utilizados, co - mo medios de neutralización, la represión y la deportación, como lo prueba el caso del fundador del muridismo Ahmadou Bamba. 2 Las autoridades senegalesas de después de la independencia no cuestionan las relaciones de clientelismo instauradas por el Estado colonial con los jefes religiosos.

  • Party-Voter Linkage in Senegal: the Rise and Fall of Abdoulaye Wade and the Parti Démocratique
    84 JOURNAL OF AFRICAN ELECTIONS PARTY-VOTER LINKAGE IN SENEGAL The rise and fall of Abdoulaye Wade and the Parti Démocratique Sénégalais1 Anja Osei Dr Anja Osei is a postdoc researcher at the chair of International Relations and Conflict Management in the Department of Politics and Management, University of Konstanz, Germany e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In March 2012 Abdoulaye Wade was defeated by Macky Sall in the hotly contested presidential elections in Senegal. This article uses the concept of party-voter linkage to examine how and why Wade and his party, the Parti Démocratique Sénégalais (PDS), lost touch with the electorate. It is argued that this failure must be viewed within the context of a complex process of social change that challenged traditional, often clientelistic, forms of linkage. As an alternative strategy, the PDS emphasised the personal charisma of its leader. Charismatic linkage, however, is naturally unstable, and the PDS began to lose public support. These findings suggest that political parties in Senegal cannot build their strategies on clientelism and charisma alone, they will have to begin to compete over issues and develop programmatic visions. If this challenge is not taken up, the long-term prospects for democratic representation and effective linkage are uncertain. INTRODUCTION In March 2012 the future of democracy in Senegal hung in the balance. In the run-up to the presidential election angry youth and opposition activists took to the streets, demanding the departure of the incumbent president, Abdoulaye Wade. The fact that a key role was played by young activists who came together in the Mouvement du 23 Juin (M23) is remarkable because the urban population, especially urban youth, had been a key element in Wade’s rise to power in 2000.

  • The Cost of Parliamentary Politics in Senegal
    The Cost of Parliamentary Politics in Senegal Professor Babacar Gueye, Dr Abdoul Wahab Cissé and Abdoul Aziz Mbodji April 2017 Prof. Babacar Gueye, Dr Abdoul Wahab Cissé and Abdoul Aziz Mbodji - 1 Table of contents Introduction 3 Methodology 4 I. Historical context 6 II. Current drivers of the cost of parliamentary politics 8 III. Outlook 9 IV. Summary 11 Endnotes 13 The Cost of Parliamentary Politics in Senegal - 2 Introduction The aim of this study, undertaken jointly by Westminster Foundation for Democracy (WFD) and the Centre for Study and Research Action on Governance (CERAG), is to provide substantive data on the costs of parliamentary work in Senegal. This was done as part of WFD’s research programme on the cost of politics, which seeks to establish a mechanism for comparing factors that drive the increasing costs of engaging in politics across a span of countries, as well as assessing how they fit within existing regulatory frameworks and political systems in order to identify key trends. In Senegal, parliamentary candidates are facing increasing costs linked to their investiture, their election and their legislature. For example, candidates face the issue of having to pay large deposit fees for their candidacy - some 20 million West African francs (CFA) or over £26,000. Senegal has had a long history of multi-party elections. For example, during the colonial period the Section Francaise de l’Internationale ouvrière (SFIO, French Section of the Workers’ International) and the Bloc Democratique du Sénégal (BDS, Senegalese Democratic Bloc stood against one another in the ‘Four Communes’ of Senegal (Saint-Louis, Dakar, Rufisque and Gorée)1, which were fully recognised by France.

  • Appel Urgent - L'observatoire
    1 APPEL URGENT - L'OBSERVATOIRE Nouvelles informations SEN 001 / 0611 / OBS 094.1 Diffamation / Menaces Sénégal 14 octobre 2011 L’Observatoire pour la protection des défenseurs des droits de l’Homme, programme conjoint de la Fédération internationale des ligues des droits de l’Homme (FIDH) et de l’Organisation mondiale contre la torture (OMCT), a reçu de nouvelles informations et vous prie d’intervenir de toute urgence sur la situation suivante au Sénégal . Nouvelles informations : L'Observatoire a été informé de propos diffamatoires et hostiles à l'encontre de M . Alioune Tine , président de la Rencontre africaine pour la défense des droits de l'Homme (RADDHO) à Dakar, ainsi qu'à l'encontre de la RADDHO. Selon les informations reçues, le 10 octobre 2011, le Président de la République aurait formulé de fausses accusations par voie de presse dans le journal Le Pays , affirmant que M. Alioune Tine et la RADDHO appelaient "à la violence et à l'insurrection", et qu'il traduirait en justice M. Tine s'il n'arrêtait pas d'"inviter les gens à des manifestations violentes". Lors d'une conférence de presse peu auparavant, le Président aurait également affirmé récuser la RADDHO, qu'il considérait comme un parti politique, et aurait mis en garde cette organisation contre toute tentative d'observation des élections à venir. L'Observatoire s'inquiète de la multiplication de tels propos par les autorités sénégalaises à l'encontre de militants et d'organisations de la société civile, qui visent manifestement à entraver leurs actions pacifiques de défense des droits de l'Homme.
