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 NOT FOR CITATION OR CIRCULATION WITHOUT AUTHOR’S PERMISSION, PLEASE An international border or just a territorial limit?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). -
The Long-Term Evolution of the Congo Deep-Sea Fan: a Basin-Wide View of the Interaction Between a Giant Submarine Fan and a Mature Passive Margin (Zaiango Project)
The Congo deep-sea fan: how far and for how long?

(*) [email protected] (**) [email protected] (†) deceased 1.- Introduction The Congo deep-sea fan is one of the largest submarine fan systems in the world and one of the most important depocentre in the eastern south Atlantic. The present-day fan extends over 1000 km offshore the Congo-Angola continental margin and it is sourced by the Congo River, whose continental drainage area is the second largest in the world (3.7 106 km²) (Droz et al., 1996) (Fig.1). There is a direct connexion between the river’s drainage basin and the deep basin through an impressive submarine canyon, which cuts down about 950 m at the shelf-break and more than 1300 m at 100 km offshore the coastline (Babonneau et al., 2002). Hence, the direct transfer of terrigenous material onto the abyssal plain takes place through the canyon, by-passing the shelf and upper slope. The submarine fan covers a surface of about 300,000 km² and contains at least 0.7 Mkm³ of Tertiary sediments (Anka and Séranne, 2004; Droz et al., 2003; Savoye et al., 2000). -

ARTICLE IN PRESS Journal of African Earth Sciences xxx (2005) xxx–xxx www.elsevier.com/locate/jafrearsci South Atlantic continental margins of Africa: A comparison of the tectonic vs climate interplay on the evolution of equatorial west Africa and SW Africa margins Michel Se´ranne *, Zahie Anka UMR 5573 Dynamique de la Lithosphe`re, CNRS/Universite´ Montpellier 2, 34095 Montpellier cedex 05, France Received 5 February 2005; accepted 18 July 2005 Abstract Africa displays a variety of continental margin structures, tectonic styles and sedimentary records. The comparative review of two representative segments: the equatorial western Africa and the SW Africa margins, helps in analysing the main controlling factors on the development of these margins. Early Cretaceous active rifting south of the Walvis Ridge resulted in the formation of the SW Africa volcanic margin that displays thick and wide intermediate igneous crust, adjacent to a thick unstretched continental crust. The non-vol- canic mode of rifting north of the Walvis ridge, led to the formation of the equatorial western Africa margin, characterised by a wide zone of crustal stretching and thinning, and thick, extensive, syn-rift basins. Contrasting lithologies of the early post-rift (salt vs shale) determined the style of gravitational deformation, whilst periods of activity of the decollements were controlled by sedimentation rates. Regressive erosion across the prominent shoulder uplift of SW Africa accounts for high clastic sedimentation rate during Late Creta- ceous to Eocene, while dominant carbonate production on equatorial western Africa shelf suggests very little erosion of a low hinterland. The early Oligocene long-term climate change had contrasted response in both margins. -

Livelihood Zone Descriptions
Government of Senegal COMPREHENSIVE FOOD SECURITY AND VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS (CFSVA) Livelihood Zone Descriptions WFP/FAO/SE-CNSA/CSE/FEWS NET Introduction The WFP, FAO, CSE (Centre de Suivi Ecologique), SE/CNSA (Commissariat National à la Sécurité Alimentaire) and FEWS NET conducted a zoning exercise with the goal of defining zones with fairly homogenous livelihoods in order to better monitor vulnerability and early warning indicators. This exercise led to the development of a Livelihood Zone Map, showing zones within which people share broadly the same pattern of livelihood and means of subsistence. These zones are characterized by the following three factors, which influence household food consumption and are integral to analyzing vulnerability: 1) Geography – natural (topography, altitude, soil, climate, vegetation, waterways, etc.) and infrastructure (roads, railroads, telecommunications, etc.) 2) Production – agricultural, agro-pastoral, pastoral, and cash crop systems, based on local labor, hunter-gatherers, etc. 3) Market access/trade – ability to trade, sell goods and services, and find employment. Key factors include demand, the effectiveness of marketing systems, and the existence of basic infrastructure. Methodology The zoning exercise consisted of three important steps: 1) Document review and compilation of secondary data to constitute a working base and triangulate information 2) Consultations with national-level contacts to draft initial livelihood zone maps and descriptions 3) Consultations with contacts during workshops in each region to revise maps and descriptions. 1. Consolidating secondary data Work with national- and regional-level contacts was facilitated by a document review and compilation of secondary data on aspects of topography, production systems/land use, land and vegetation, and population density. -

Sea Experience in Developing Countries
Chapter 6 SEA EXPERIENCE IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES Increasingly, developing countries are experimenting with SEA and some have SEA-type approaches and elements in place already. There is also considerable experience with using a variety of strategic planning processes that display many of the characteristics of SEA (para SEA). We focus first on SEA in southern Africa where a dedicated regional workshop on SEA was organised to feed into this review (SAIEA 2003a), followed by sections covering francophone Africa, the rest of sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, Asia and elsewhere. But our survey of this field represents no more than a preliminary reconnaissance. Selected examples of SEA and para SEA illustrate some of the indigenous approaches that have been adopted. These are less common than SEAs promoted and funded by development assistance agencies (which are reviewed in Chapter 4). In most cases where formal SEA has been undertaken in developing countries, the basic aim and approach has mirrored that in the north – namely to identify the environmental consequences (and associated social and economic effects) of existing, new or revised policies, plans and programmes. These represent only a small number of the broad family of SEA approaches. But they are a highly visible sub-set of the large suite of informal or para-SEAs which form part of development policy-making, land use planning or resource management. No strict boundaries can be drawn for this latter area of application. Only the more evident SEA type elements and approaches are introduced in this chapter. Nevertheless, they indicate the scope and diversity of the extended SEA family in developing countries, where political and economic realities constrain what can be done. -

Afrique SCIENCE 16(1) (2020) 1 - 10 1 ISSN 1813-548X, http://www.afriquescience.net La variabilité pluviométrique, une pression supplémentaire sur les systèmes de production vivrière : cas de la riziculture inondée dans le département d’Oussouye, Sénégal Thérèse Marie Ndébane NDIAYE Laboratoire LEÏDI « Dynamiques des Territoires et Développement », Université Gaston Berger de Saint-Louis, Sénégal _________________ * Correspondance, courriel : [email protected] Résumé Le département d’Oussouye fait partie des régions les plus arrosées du Sénégal. Mais il est soumis aux fluctuations spatio-temporelles de la pluviométrie observables dans les pays du Sahel. Ces fluctuations de la pluviométrie pèsent sur les systèmes de production vivrière. Cet article a pour objectif d’analyser les impacts potentiels de la variabilité pluviométrique sur la riziculture inondée dans le département d’Oussouye, une activité séculaire qui a un rôle primordial dans la sécurité alimentaire des ménages ruraux. Des données climatiques constituées par les hauteurs de pluie annuelles et les jours pluvieux ainsi que des statistiques agricoles ont été utilisées. L’indice de pluie standardisé, la variation du nombre de jours pluvieux, le test de détection de rupture de Buishand ont permis de caractériser la variabilité pluviométrique. Celle-ci peut être considérée comme un facteur de vulnérabilité alimentaire en raison de l’impact qu’elle peut avoir sur la productivité rizicole.

SENEGAL Work Plan FY 2017 Project Year 6
SENEGAL Work Plan FY 2017 Project Year 6 October 2016‒September 2017 ENVISION is a global project led by RTI International in partnership with CBM International, The Carter Center, Fred Hollows Foundation, Helen Keller International, IMA World Health, Light for the World, Sightsavers, and World Vision. ENVISION is funded by the US Agency for International Development under cooperative agreement No. AID-OAA-A-11-00048. The period of performance for ENVISION is September 30, 2011 through September 30, 2019. The author’s views expressed in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views of the United States Agency for International Development or the United States Government. ENVISION PROJECT OVERVIEW The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)’s ENVISION project (2011‒2019) is designed to support the vision of the World Health Organization (WHO) and its member states by targeting the control and elimination of seven neglected tropical diseases (NTDs), including lymphatic filariasis (LF), onchocerciasis (OV), schistosomiasis (SCH), three soil-transmitted helminths (STH; roundworm, whipworm, and hookworm), and trachoma. ENVISION’s goal is to strengthen NTD programming at the global and country levels and support Ministries of Health (MOHs) to achieve their NTD control and elimination goals. At the global level, ENVISION—in close coordination and collaboration with WHO, USAID, and other stakeholders—contributes to several technical areas in support of global NTD control and elimination goals, including the following: • drug and diagnostics procurement where global donation programs are unavailable • capacity strengthening • management and implementation of ENVISION’s Technical Assistance Facility (TAF) • disease mapping • NTD policy and technical guideline development • NTD monitoring and evaluation (M&E).
