The question is therefore being asked about the extent of alternative production areas in southern Africa (particularly in selected neighboring countries) for the range of crops which are presently produced sub-optimally under irrigation in South Africa. The objective of this study is therefore to provide an answer to this question with adequate confidence to allow the rational pursuit of this concept which could have far-reaching mutual benefit for southern African countries. The countries that were considered are Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Zambia.

  • Global Suicide Rates and Climatic Temperature
    SocArXiv Preprint: May 25, 2020 Global Suicide Rates and Climatic Temperature Yusuke Arima1* [email protected] Hideki Kikumoto2 [email protected] ABSTRACT Global suicide rates vary by country1, yet the cause of this variability has not yet been explained satisfactorily2,3. In this study, we analyzed averaged suicide rates4 and annual mean temperature in the early 21st century for 183 countries worldwide, and our results suggest that suicide rates vary with climatic temperature. The lowest suicide rates were found for countries with annual mean temperatures of approximately 20 °C. The correlation suicide rate and temperature is much stronger at lower temperatures than at higher temperatures. In the countries with higher temperature, high suicide rates appear with its temperature over about 25 °C. We also investigated the variation in suicide rates with climate based on the Köppen–Geiger climate classification5, and found suicide rates to be low in countries in dry zones regardless of annual mean temperature. Moreover, there were distinct trends in the suicide rates in island countries. Considering these complicating factors, a clear relationship between suicide rates and temperature is evident, for both hot and cold climate zones, in our dataset. Finally, low suicide rates are typically found in countries with annual mean temperatures within the established human thermal comfort range. This suggests that climatic temperature may affect suicide rates globally by effecting either hot or cold thermal stress on the human body.

  • Kampala Declaration on Community Paralegals
    Kampala Declaration on Community Paralegals Kampala, Uganda July 26, 2012 Preamble We, the participants of a regional meeting on community paralegals held in Kampala on July 9- 11, 2012, recognize that in Africa and elsewhere the promises of law and government are often unmet. A health ministry pledges to treat tuberculosis, but many of its clinics have no drugs in stock; a mining firm uses its influence in the capital to override customary land rights; a fruit seller fails to obtain a trading license, because an official demands a bribe. Many people cannot avail themselves of nominally good rules and systems, because of cost, dysfunction, corruption, or abuse of power. In other cases, the law itself is unjust. As a result, many citizens are denied even basic rights to dignity, safety, and livelihood. We represent over fifty organizations working to advance justice in twenty African countries. Our collective experience has shown that community paralegals can help bridge the gap between law and society. Community paralegals use knowledge of law and government and tools like mediation, organizing, education, and advocacy to seek concrete solutions to instances of injustice. Community paralegals can straddle plural legal systems, engaging both formal and traditional institutions based on the needs of a given case. Paralegals are linked to lawyers who provide guidance and who can resort to litigation if frontline methods fail. Community paralegals have been active in Africa for decades, at least since the 1950s, when paralegals began assisting black South Africans to navigate and resist the codes of apartheid. Community paralegal efforts are diverse.

Academic Editors: Sune Linder and Timothy A. Martin Received: 15 December 2015; Accepted: 16 February 2016; Published: 4 March 2016 Abstract: Variability in woody plant species, vegetation assemblages and anthropogenic activities derails the efforts to have common approaches for estimating biomass and carbon stocks in Africa. In order to suggest management options, it is important to understand the vegetation dynamics and the major drivers governing the observed conditions. This study uses data from 29 sentinel landscapes (4640 plots) across the southern Africa. We used T-Square distance method to sample trees. Allometric models were used to estimate aboveground tree biomass from which aboveground biomass carbon stock (AGBCS) was derived for each site. Results show average tree density of 502 trees¨ ha´1 with semi-arid areas having the highest (682 trees¨ ha´1) and arid regions the lowest (393 trees¨ ha´1).

  • Malawi Orientation Manual
    Full Name of Republic of Malawi Country Population Malawi is home to roughly 19 million people. 84% of the population lives in rural areas. The life expectancy is 61 years, and the median age is 16.4 years (one of the lowest median ages in the world). Roughly 50.7% (2014 est.) live below the international poverty line. Time Zone GMT +2 (7 hours ahead of EST in the winter, 6 hours ahead in summer) Capital Lilongwe Ethnic Groups The African peoples in Malawi are all of Bantu origin. The main ethnic groups ('tribes') are the Chewa, dominant in the central and southern parts of the country; the Yao, also found in the south; and the Tumbuka in the north. There are very small populations of Asian (Indian, Pakistani, Korean and Chinese), white Africans and European people living mainly in the cities. Major Languages The official language of Malawi is Chichewa and English. English is widely spoken, particularly in main towns. The different ethnic groups in Malawi each have their own language or dialect. Major Religions Most people in Malawi are Christian (82.6%), usually members of one of the Catholic or Protestant churches founded by missionaries in the late 19th century. There are Muslims populations primarily in the south and central region (13%), especially along Lake Malawi - a legacy of the Arab slave traders who operated in this area. Alongside the established religions, many Malawians also hold traditional animist beliefs (2%). President’s Name In 2014, Peter Mutharika of the DPP followed his older brother Bingu wa Mutharika’s footsteps to become the current Malawian president.
