I sincerely thank Prof. Dr. Ulrich Schiefer and Dr. Stephan Dünnwald for their supervision and helpful suggestions. The research was part of the project African societies facing global dynamics: turbulences between external intervention, migration and food insecurity financed by the Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to write this MA thesis within the project. Finally, I would like to thank my parents, whose support made this research possible. I I. Abstract Since the beginning of the new millennium Cape Verde has become a destination for a growing number of migrants from continental West Africa, especially from other ECOWAS member states. After migrants from Guinea-Bissau, Senegalese build the second biggest community of ECOWAS migrants. This thesis addresses migration processes between Senegal and the Cape Verdean Island Boa Vista. The focus lies on migration motives, migration patterns and aspects, which influence the choice of Cape Verde as destination. Furthermore it analyses the flow of remittances and how the situation of the migrants on the island Boa Vista influences this monetary flow. Finally, the influence of these remittances on the lives of the migrants’ families in Senegal is examined. Households in Senegal spend a high percentage of their income on food, and they often depend on the support of migrated household members. Families try to minimize risk of food insecurity through the diversification of income resources, and migration is one coping strategy to do so. Empirical data from research in Cape Verde and Senegal are used for the analysis of the above mentioned factors. This thesis seeks to add knowledge about remittances in the environment of intra-continental migration in West Africa, and more specifically about the relatively new and until now barely researched phenomenon of immigration to Cape Verde. Keywords: Migration; Senegal; Cape Verde; Remittances; Food Security II II. Resumo O crescimento económico e a extensão do sector do turismo sobretudo nos últimos vinte anos fez de Cabo Verde um destino para um número crescente de migrantes da África Ocidental, especialmente de outros estados membros da CEDEAO, desde o início do nova milénio. Senegaleses formam a segunda maior comunidade de imigrantes da CEDEAO, depois de migrantes da Guiné-Bissau. Esta tese aborda os processos de migração entre o Senegal e a ilha de Boa Vista, Cabo Verde. A tese foca na análise dos motivos da migração, padrões de migração e os aspectos que influenciam a escolha de Cabo Verde como destino. Além disso, o fluxo de remessas e como a situação dos imigrantes na ilha da Boa Vista influencia esse fluxo monetário são analisados. Por fim, examinamos a influência dessas remessas na vida das famílias dos migrantes no Senegal e como elas são gastas. Dados empíricos de pesquisas de campo em Cabo Verde e Senegal são utilizados para a análise dos factores mencionados acima. Esta tese busca agregar conhecimento sobre as remessas de dinheiro no ambiente de migração intracontinental na África Ocidental, e mais especificamente sobre o relativamente novo e até agora pouco pesquisado fenómeno de imigração para Cabo Verde.

  • Joola Dynamics Between Senegal and Guinea-Bissau Jordi Tomàs (CEA-ISCTE) Paper Presented at ABORNE Fifth Annual Conference, Lisbon, September 22Th, 2011
    THIS IS REALLY A PRELIMINARY DRAFT. NOT FOR CITATION OR CIRCULATION WITHOUT AUTHOR’S PERMISSION, PLEASE An international border or just a territorial limit? Joola dynamics between Senegal and Guinea-Bissau Jordi Tomàs (CEA-ISCTE) Paper presented at ABORNE Fifth Annual Conference, Lisbon, September 22th, 2011. Introduction This paper aims to present an ongoing research about the dynamics of Joola population in the border between Guinea-Bissau and Senegal (more specifically from the Atlantic Ocean to the Niambalang river). We would like to tell you about how Joola Ajamaat (near the main town of Susanna, Guinea-Bissau) and Joola Huluf (near the main town of Oussouye, Senegal) define the border and, especially, how they use this border in their daily lives1. As most borderland regions in the Upper Guinea Coast, this international border separates two areas that have been economically and politically marginalised within their respective national contexts (Senegal and Guinea-Bissau) in colonial and postcolonial times. Moreover, from 1982 –that is, for almost 30 years– this border area has suffered the conflict between the separatist MFDC (Mouvement des Forces Démocratiques de Casamance) and the Senegalese army (and, in the last few years, the Bissau-Guinean army as well). Despite this situation, the links between the population on both sides are still alive, as we will show later on. After a short historical presentation, we would like to focus on three main subjects. First, to show concrete examples of everyday life gathered during our fieldwork. Secondly, to see how the conflict have affected the relationship between the Joola from both sides of 1 This paper has been made possible thanks to a postdoctoral scholarship granted by FCT (Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia).

Received 20 September, 2020; Accepted 11 March, 2021 This work uses the Weibull distribution for assessing the wind potential in Senegal; a country located in West Africa. In this study, data from the ERA5 reanalysis and the Ziguinchor station were used to characterize the spatio-temporal variability of wind and its available power density at 10 m and 100 m of altitude. The results showed that the wind potential was stronger on the coast and the north-western part of the country. A case study was carried out in the Basse Casamance on five (5) different sites located on the coast and inland (Kafountine, Diembering, Kabrousse, Bignona, and Ziguinhor). The results show good wind potentials in the coastal areas: Kabrousse, Kafountine, and Diembering. The most favourable period for wind power production is the winter. The ERA5 data and those of the Ziguinchor weather station were also compared. The results showed that the annual average wind power density calculated with the ERA5 reanalysis was slightly higher than that of the data from the station.

These countries belong to an interstate organization known as PALOP. In June 2018, PALOP organized a cancer meeting in Praia, Cape Verde, entitled ‘Quality in cancer care, optimization of cancer units, cancer education and training.’ This meeting was supported by faculty from the African Organization for Research and Training in Cancer (AORTIC) and was dedicated to the improvement of cancer care in PALOP countries. The burden of non- communicable diseases, which includes cancer, is increasing rapidly in these countries.. During this meeting, a plan was developed to guide the future strategic actions in this community. The main points of action include to increase access to cancer care, boost HPV and hepatitis B vaccination, improve access to cancer treatment, including radiotherapy and palliative care, amongst others. Efforts will be made to ensure the participation of all of these countries at PALOP meetings, including Equatorial Guinea, a potential new member. Keywords: Portuguese-speaking countries in Africa, Oncology, Cancer care, Education Introduction are cardiovascular related diseases, diabetes and cancers Portuguese-speaking countries in Africa include Angola, [2]. PALOP countries are facing the same challenges in Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, São Tomé the healthcare system in the establishment of effective and and Principe.

He was an untiring guerilla leader and an intelligent organizer, yet his outstanding achievement was that when he recognized that there was a breach to be closed he stepped into ft. This breach - which must be blamed for the fact that nearly all African countries after reaching national independence remained anything else but free and independent - was the absence of a theory of liberation. Such a theory was needed to prevent the national elites, after having reached national independence with the support of the people, from taking over the positions of the foreign masters and continu­ ing exploitation, and to prevent the elites not integrated in the countries' productive processes from basing their power on their function as intermediaries between the reactionary strata of their countries and imperialism.
