ABSTRACT Background. West African landscapes are largely characterised by complex agroforest mosaics. Although the West African forests are considered a nonhuman primate hotspot, knowledge on the distribution of many species is often lacking and out- of-date. Considering the fast-changing nature of the landscapes in this region, up- to-date information on primate occurrence is urgently needed, particularly of taxa such as colobines, which may be more sensitive to habitat modification than others. Understanding wildlife occurrence and mechanisms of persistence in these human- dominated landscapes is fundamental for developing effective conservation strategies. Submitted 2 March 2018 Accepted 6 May 2018 Methods. In this paper, we aim to review current knowledge on the distribution of Published 23 May 2018 three threatened primates in Guinea-Bissau and neighbouring regions, highlighting Corresponding author research gaps and identifying priority research and conservation action.

    TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History- Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka This dissertation explores how the Atlantic slave trade integrated the Cape Verde archipelago into the cultural, economic, and political milieu of Upper Guinea Coast between 1500 and 1879. The archipelago is about 300 miles off the coast of Senegal, West Africa. The Portuguese colonized the “uninhabited” archipelago in 1460 and soon began trading with the mainland for slaves and black African slaves became the majority, resulting in the first racialized Atlantic slave society. Despite cultural changes, I argue that cultural practices by the lower classes, both slaves and freed slaves, were quintessentially “Guinean.” Regional fashion and dress developed between the archipelago and mainland with adorning and social use of panu (cotton cloth). In particular, I argue Afro-feminine aesthetics developed in the islands by freed black women that had counterparts in the mainland, rather than mere creolization. Moreover, the study explores the social instability in the islands that led to the exile of liberated slaves, slaves, and the poor, the majority of whom were of African descent as part of the Portuguese efforts to organize the Atlantic slave trade in the Upper th Guinea Coast. With the abolition of slavery in Cape Verde in the 19 century, Portugal used freed slaves and the poor as foot soldiers and a labor force to consolidate “Portuguese Guinea.” Many freed slaves resisted this mandatory service.

In mid 2016 the region has about 50 operational hydropower plants and about 40 sites are under construction or refurbishment. The potential for hydropower development – especially for small-scale plants – is assumed to be large, but exact data were missing in the past. The ECOWAS Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE), founded in 2010 by ECOWAS, ADA, AECID and UNIDO, responded to these challenges and developed the ECOWAS Small- Scale Hydropower Program, which was approved by ECOWAS Energy Ministers in 2012. In the frame of this program ECREEE assigned Pöyry Energy GmbH in 2015 for implementation of a hydropower resource mapping by use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for 14 ECOWAS member countries (excluding Cabo Verde). The main deliverable of the project is a complete and comprehensive assessment of the hydro resources and computation of hydropower potentials as well as possible climate change impacts for West Africa. Main deliverables of the GIS mapping include: • River network layer: GIS line layer showing the river network for about 500,000 river reaches (see river network map below) with attributes including river name (if available), theoretical hydropower potential, elevation at start and end of reach, mean annual discharge, mean monthly discharge, etc.

In my first semester at UT, I was lucky enough to find what many grad students never do. Sandra Lauderdale Graham has been better than the best advisor I could have hoped for. By always pushing me to ask hard questions and seldom allowing me to take the easy way out, she has helped me more than anyone else to think and write about the past. I am honored to be her student. With his merciless red pen and caustic wit, Richard Graham has sent me back to the drawing board many times. I am sure that this dissertation would be much better if I had followed more of their advice.

  • International Union for Conservation of Nature
    International Union for Conservation of Nature Country: Guinea Bissau PROJECT DOCUMENT Protection and Restoration of Mangroves and productive Landscape to strengthen food security and mitigate climate change BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT Mangrove ecosystems cover a major part of the Bissau-Guinean coastal zone and the services they provide to the local population are extremely valuable. However, these ecosystems are at risk and face several challenges. In the past, many mangrove areas were turned into rice fields by the local population. During the independence war of Guinea Bissau (1963-1974), many of these mangrove rice fields were abandoned but they were never restored, leading to both mangrove natural habitat and land degradation, and their respective impacts in terms of loss of biodiversity, decrease in natural productivity and local food insecurity. In response to the above challenges, the objective of the proposed project is to “support the restoration and rehabilitation of degraded mangroves ecosystems functionality and services for enhanced food security and climate change mitigation”. The overall strategy is built around policy influence and knowledge sharing which will lead to replication and scaling up of the approaches and results. It is structured into four components. The first component will support knowledge-based policy development and adoption that promotes mangrove and forests restoration. The second component of the project, promoting a participatory land use planning and management approach at the landscape level, focuses on the restoration and rehabilitation of degraded land in mangrove areas. The third component will contribute to improving the institutional and financial context of mangroves and forests restoration in Guinea Bissau.

The protection of the environment and the promotion of human rights are increasingly seen as interconnected, complementary goals that share a core of common interests and objectives indispensable for sustainable development. Nonetheless, the complex interrelation of species in the semi-humid ecosystems of tropical latitudes is increasingly threatened by paths of economic development molded by the capitalist world economy. The creation of National Reserves and National Parks has often integrated sustainable management of natural resources and biodiversity conservation.

Thesis Report Thierry van der Hoeven (6529380) Abstract The Boé is a unique nature reserve in the southeastern border region of Guinea-Bissau that is home to a relatively large chimpanzee population. However, nowadays there are a number of phenomena threatening this nature. One of these phenomena is the emergence of cashew plantations. One of the focusses of this research is on this problem. However, it is difficult to distinguish cashew plantations from gallery and dry forests with remote sensing data with medium resolution. Furthermore, it is quite difficult to collect representative samples in the study area because there are few resources available and it is a very diverse and fragmented area in terms of landscape. The research aim of this study has been to identify land use trends with an emphasis on deforestation in the last 20 years and specifically in the last 4 years in the Boé area. To achieve this, samples were collected during a fieldwork campaign of four months. During this fieldwork campaign, different land cover types were sampled throughout the Boé area with an emphasis on cashew plantations and forests.
