  • Sub-Saharian Immigration in France : from Diversity to Integration
    Sub-Saharian immigration in France : from diversity to integration. Caroline JUILLARD Université René Descartes-Paris V The great majority of Sub-Saharian African migration comes from West - Africa, more precisely from francophone countries as Senegal, Mali, and into a lesser extent Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mauritania. There are also migrants from other francophone African countries such as : Zaïre (RDC), Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Niger. Migrants consist mostly of workers and students. I shall speak principally of West-African migration for which sociolinguistic sources are not many. My talk will have three main parts. I General characteristics of this migration. A/ Census data First of all, I will discuss census data. The major trend of immigration to France nowadays comes from Sub-Saharian Africa ; it has tripled between 1982 et 1990 and almost doubled according to the last census of 1999 (Cf. Annexes). According to 1999 census, this migrant population counts more or less 400.000 persons. Official data are multiple and differ from one source to the other. Variations are important. Children born in France from immigrant parents do not participate to the immigrant population and, so for, are not included in the migration population recorded by the national census. They are recorded by the national education services. Moreover, there might be more persons without residency permit within the Sub-Saharian migration than within other migrant communities. I 2 mention here well-known case of “les sans-papiers”, people without residency permit, who recently asked for their integration to France. Case of clandestines has to be mentioned too. Data of INSEE1 do not take into account these people.

  • Senegal and Mali 9
    Senegal and Mali 9 MACARTAN HUMPHREYS and HABAYE AG MOHAMED n mid-December 1983, hundreds of demonstrators—armed with spears, machetes, and hunting rifles, covered in protective charms, and chanting Iincantations to render them invulnerable to bullets—invaded the streets of Ziguinchor to call for the independence of a region in the southwest corner of Senegal—the Casamance.1 The government responded with a heavy hand, leaving an official toll of 80 injured and 29 dead.2 A handful of those retreating, led by vet- erans from the Senegalese army, under the banner of the Mouvement des Forces Démocratiques de Casamance (MFDC), headed to the mangroves and dense forest of lower Casamance to set up rebel bases.They started military training and planning attacks on government positions.In doing so,they began a guerrilla war that has left thousands killed and the south of Senegal strewn with land mines.After 20 years of failed negotiations and aborted attempts at achieving military victory,no end to the war is in sight. The civil war in Mali started very differently.On the morning of June 28, 1990, a small group of Libyan-trained fighters belonging to the Mouvement Populaire de Libération de l’Azawad (MPLA), also hoping to gain independence for their region, Azawad, attacked a small government position in Tideremen in the far northeast of Mali.They killed four and gained control of a dozen automatic rifles.Moving south- west,the group attacked more government positions that same evening.In an attack at the town of Méneka, they seized 124 automatic rifles.These attacks were the beginning of a war that would engulf the region in intercommunal conflict, pitting northern “whites” against northern “blacks.”After extensive and broad-based nego- tiations, the war ended with a weapons-burning ceremony in 1996.

  • Transboundary Governance in the Senegal and Niger River Basins
    Transboundary Governance in the Senegal and Niger River Basins: Historical Analysis and Overview of the Status of Common Facilities and Benefit Sharing Arrangements1 Dr. Thomas Bolognesi / Dr. Christian Bréthaut / Dr. Komlan Sangbana / Dr. Mara Tignino University of Geneva, Geneva Water Hub I. HISTORICAL ANALYSIS AND IDENTIFICATION OF KEY DRIVERS OF CHANGE The Organization for the Development of the Senegal River (Organisation pour la Mise en Valeur du Fleuve Senegal - OMVS) and the Niger Basin Authority (NBA) are characterized by the introduction of a robust framework for cooperation covering such aspects as the exchange of information, political and financial dimensions and coordination mechanisms, planning and public participation. Featured as examples of good practice in trans-boundary cooperation, their actions cover over a dozen key sectors of economic development. The operating mechanisms of these two institutions represent real exceptions at the international level. These include the characteristics of certain co-ownership arrangements on water infrastructure, the trend towards integration of national regulatory frameworks through a forum for cooperation, and the granting of specific skills for the implementation of programmatic activities. Their success notably helps to reflect on (i) the concept of cooperation, by identifying favorable factors rather than barriers; and on (ii) the conditions for implementation illustrated by these singular models. Organization for the Development of the Senegal River (OMVS) The history of the OMVS is marked by different governance phases, four of which appear to us crucial. The first (1820-1963) began during the colonial period and lasts until the independence of the riparian States. The second (1968-1973) was marked by the great drought of the Sahel as an important engine for the definition and implementation of trans-boundary river management.
