INTRODUCTION The MENTOR Initiative is an international non-governmental organization dedicated to reducing death and suffering from malaria and neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) in humanitarian crises. Currently MENTOR is providing support to the most vulnerable communities in Angola, Liberia, Kenya, Central African Republic, South Sudan and Chad. The MENTOR is present in Angola since 2002, working with the National Malaria Control Program to reduce the burden of disease in the provinces of Huambo, Uíge and Zaire. Since 2011, MENTOR is implementing a private health sector malaria program in partnership with the Government and the NGO Population Services International (PSI), introducing combination therapies based on artemisinin (ACTs) and Rapid Diagnostic Tests (TDR) in private pharmacies. In partnership with the Government and the NGO World Learning, a public health malaria programme based on case management and capacity building within the National Health Structure is being implemented. In 2013, the MENTOR Initiative started the Neglected Tropical Disease control programme with the overall purpose to support the Ministry of Health of Angola to achieve a significant reduction in infections of Schistosomiasis, Soil Transmitted Helminths and Lymphatic Filariasis, in areas of high endemicity.

    COMO PODEM AS COMUNIDADES COSTEIRAS ENVOLVER-SE E BENEFICIAR DO PROGRAMA BCLME : UMA ANÁLISE I. RELATÓRIO DA VISITA A ANGOLA Fevereiro 2004 Como Podem as Comunidades Costeiras Envolver-se e Beneficiar do Programa BCLME: Uma Análise I. Relatório da Visita a Angola i O Programa do Grande Ecossistema Marinho da Corrente de Benguela (BCLME) visa a gestão deste ecossistema único de afloramento costeiro que acompanha as costas de Angola, Namíbia e África do Sul. Financiado pelo portfólio de Águas Internacionais do Fundo para o Ambiente Mundial (GEF), o Programa é implementado pelo Programa das Nações Unidas para o Desenvolvimento (PNUD), sendo o Gabinete das Nações Unidas para os Serviços de Apoio aos Projectos (UNOPS) a agência executora. Os três países membros asseguram financiamento adicional através de contribuições em espécie. Ao longo dos 4 000 km de costa vivem comunidades que dependem, a diferentes níveis, dos recursos naturais deste ecossistema, desempenhando um papel importante na gestão e saúde dos recursos costeiros. Ainda que o envolvimento das comunidades costeiras não seja o foco principal do Programa, é cada vez mais aceite que as actividades ao nível comunitário podem contribuir significativamente para o sucesso global do Programa, ao mesmo tempo que criam oportunidades para desenvolvimento comunitário. Foi neste contexto que a EcoAfrica Environmental Consultants realizou um estudo de ‘primeira paroximação’ para analisar como as comunidades costeiras podem contribuir para a gestão do BCLME e posicionar-se de modo a obter o máximo proveito dos recursos costeiros, bem como para recomendar qual o papel que o Programa BCLME pode desempenhar para atingir este objectivo.

    Monitorização e Avaliação de Recursos Florestais Nacionais de Angola Inventário Florestal Nacional Guia de campo para recolha de dados . NFMA Working Paper No 41/P– Rome, Luanda 2009 Monitorização e Avaliação de Recursos Florestais Nacionais As florestas são essenciais para o bem-estar da humanidade. Constitui as fundações para a vida sobre a terra através de funções ecológicas, a regulação do clima e recursos hídricos e servem como habitat para plantas e animais. As florestas também fornecem uma vasta gama de bens essenciais, tais como madeira, comida, forragem, medicamentos e também, oportunidades para lazer, renovação espiritual e outros serviços. Hoje em dia, as florestas sofrem pressões devido ao aumento de procura de produtos e serviços com base na terra, o que resulta frequentemente na degradação ou transformação da floresta em formas insustentáveis de utilização da terra. Quando as florestas são perdidas ou severamente degradadas. A sua capacidade de funcionar como reguladores do ambiente também se perde. O resultado é o aumento de perigo de inundações e erosão, a redução na fertilidade do solo e o desaparecimento de plantas e animais. Como resultado, o fornecimento sustentável de bens e serviços das florestas é posto em perigo. Como resposta do aumento de procura de informações fiáveis sobre os recursos de florestas e árvores tanto ao nível nacional como Internacional l, a FAO iniciou uma actividade para dar apoio à monitorização e avaliação de recursos florestais nationais (MANF). O apoio à MANF inclui uma abordagem harmonizada da MANF, a gestão de informação, sistemas de notificação de dados e o apoio à análise do impacto das políticas no processo nacional de tomada de decisão.
