Printed in the Netherlands FOREWORD The conference "Cultural Aspects of Landscape" was held to encourage scientists of various disciplines-ecologists, architects, social scientists, art and literary historians-to exchange current ideas about landscape.Ther e are some case studies in the final chapter on ways to used approach specific ecological problems. Whereas it relatively easy to hold a meeting for specialists who have narrow research interests in one field, our conference, with its broad approach, was both conceptually and organizationally difficult; there are different landscapes and spaces in the world and different culturalreaction s by human beings tothem . A number of landscapes in the world are, at the present, under threat-as is now evident to most people-and it goes without saying that we must use every possible means to avoid a catastrophe on earth. The interdisciplinary conference was one of the first to bring together the specialists from different disciplines who wanted to listen to, and to try to understand, each other. This conference was not only a difficult methodological task, but also one which demanded important human qualities from the participants: the wish to understand, and the wish to help. We need to link arms if we are to protect nature and landscape; it is both our moral duty andth e duty of ourcontemporar y culture. I would like to thank theparticipant s of the conference and the contributors to this book for their contributions toth e greattas k that weface .

Zonneveld Between June 28 and 30,1989, theWorkin g Group "CulturalEcology "o f the International Association for Landscape Ecology (IALE) held its first international conference, organized by Hanna Svobodova and Josef Fanta. Some sixtyparticipant s representing very different fields of research in natural sciences as well as in the humaniora had come to Baarn in the Netherlands. The theme of the conference was: "Cultural Aspects of Landscape" and the programme was oriented on the central theme "Landscape". But, on inspecting the programme, some participants were wondering aloud what kind of connection there was supposed to be between the lectures announced for certain sessions. And during the start of the conference the meeting could be compared with a chicken- house in which some quite different kind of fowl had been let in from various directions- There were somecommunication s problems:eac h group usedit s own language andjargon , and cherished its own point of view. But this was not embarrassing. For the goal of convening these meetings had been to have the chicken run of Landscape Ecology filled with "all sorts and conditions of fowl" - biologists and foresters, cultural anthropologists, geographers, penologists, landscape architects, artists and students of art, and have them cackling on thatcentra l theme:th elandscape . ' The results were very interesting and promising indeed. Of course, it was not possible to end theconferenc e with adocumen t in which allquestion s were answered and all problems solved, but in many cases the participants became aware that their object of study-the landscape-can be viewed from directions other than those they were used to. And as a result of this evolution they were able toformulat e theirquestion s more adequately. The start of the conference reminded us of the old, well-known Indian story of the three blind men that were dropped into an elephants's den: One man was convinced that an elephant consists of four vertical pillars; his place was under the belly of the animal. The second told everybody, with great certainty, that an elephant is ahoselik e thing that has the capacity to blow; he was the man that had landed in front of the elephant. And the third, who hadbee n on the animal's back, lived with theunshakabl e conviction that elephants are made to sito n and to beuse d asmean s of transportation. During the opening session, les S. Zonneveld, the former president of IALE, introduced a more modern metaphor, the "parable of the ball": A spherical piece of stone is discovered by a boy who thinks he has found a ball. The boy inspects its weight and hardness, plays for some moments with it, and then leaves it in the lawn. An artist, visiting the premises, admires the ball for its pure form and its colour, contrasted against the green grass. A geologist who passes by recognizes the rock as a useless dolerite. The boy's mother, however, carries the ball home and uses it as the lid for a waterjar . And finally, a visiting historian discovers that the lid is a rare specimen of a cannon ball, areli c from an ancient local war... The notion "landscape" encompasses a great variety of meanings, and people dealing with that notion may havedifferen t startingpoint s ordifferen t intentions. We are glad that in the following pages the text of practically all the papers read during the conference are represented. We hope that this publication might further the mutual understanding of people reared in different disciplines and spheres of thought, but who are nevertheless involved in the same theme:Landscape . Opening speech:"Groeneveld " 28-6-89 Isaak S.Zonneveld , Ex-President IALE Ladies andgentleme n - TheIAL E would like to welcome you to the conference, and also to the country where the

  • Speech to Parliament by H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni President of The
    Speech to Parliament By H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni President of the Republic of Uganda Parliamentary Buildings - 13th December, 2012 1 Rt. Hon. Speaker, I have decided to use the rights of the President, under Article 101 (2) of the 1995 Constitution of the Republic of Uganda, to address Parliament. I am exercising this right in order to counter the nefarious and mendacious campaign of the foreign interests, using NGOs and some Members of Parliament, to try and cripple or disorient the development of the Oil sector. If the Ugandans may remember, this is not the first time these interests try to distort the development of our history. When we were fighting the Sudanese-sponsored terrorism of Kony or when we were fighting the armed cattle- rustlers in Karamoja, you remember, there were groups, including some religious leaders, Opposition Members of Parliament as well as NGOs, which would spend all the 2 time denouncing us, the Freedom Fighters. They were denouncing those who were fighting to defend the lives and properties of the people, rather than denouncing the terrorists, the cattle-rustlers and their external-backers (in the case of Kony) as well as their internal collaborators. It would appear as if the wrong-doer was the Government, the NRM, rather than the criminals. We, patiently, put up with that malignment at the same time as we fought, got injured or killed, against the enemy until we achieved victory. Eventually, we won, supported by the ordinary people and the different people’s militias. There is total peace in the whole country and yet the misleaders of those years have not apologized to the Ugandans for their mendacity.

  • Karuma Dam EIA Report Part 2
    KARUMA HPP(600MW)_________________________________________________ EIPL CHAPTER-1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND Uganda is a landlocked country in East Africa, bordered on the east by Kenya, on the north by Sudan, on the west by the Democratic Republic of the Congo, on the southwest by Rwanda, and on the south by Tanzania. Uganda has a total landmass of 241,000 sq. km, 18 percent of which is covered by freshwater bodies. Lying astride the equator, Uganda offers exceptional diversity, combining some of the best features of Africa, including the source of the River Nile(the second longest river in the World) and Lake Victoria(the second largest fresh water lake in the World). The country’s geographical diversity is great. In the East, it overlaps the tropical Savannah and in the West, African rain-forest zones lies. Moreover, there are many existing contrasting physical features, ranging from extensive plains with undulating hills to snow-capped mountains, waterfalls, meandering rivers and spectacular flora and fauna. The country is endowed with abundant renewable energy resources. These include plentiful biomass supplies, extensive hydrological resources, favorable solar conditions and large quantities of biomass residues from agricultural production, among others. With about 43,942 km 2 of wetlands and open water (18% of total area), Uganda is considered fairly well endowed with water resources. Major water bodies include lakes Victoria, Kyoga, Albert, George and Edward while major rivers include the Nile, Ruizi, Katonga, Kafu, Mpologoma and Aswa. Almost the whole of Uganda lies within the Nile basin, which is shared by 10 countries. Favorable atmospheric conditions and mighty river provides abundant hydropower potential estimated at about 2,000 MW mainly along River Nile that can be developed to supply isolated areas or feed into the national grid.
