Impact Survey: Guinea Bissau
Impact survey: Guinea Bissau A selective nationwide survey of communities affected by landmines and explosive remnants of war Survey team: Dionco Sousa Cardoso (Team Leader) Mamadu Lamine Cante (Team Leader) Eufemia Barros Agosto Aurelia Gomes Lamine Gomes Clemente Mendes Support staff: Ricardo Nhaga Nicolau Nharo Balde Jose Pedro Gomes Amido Jalo Technical Advisor: Hagos Kiflemariam, Landmine Action Report by: Melissa Fuerth, Operations Officer, Landmine Action Penelope Caswell, GIS Officer, Landmine Action Editor: Rob Deere, Operations Director, Landmine Action Commissioning Editor: Sebastian Taylor, Director, Landmine Action Special thanks to: John Blacken, Director General, HUMAID Financial support from: U.S. State Department’s Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement United Kingdom’s Department for International Development 1 Executive summary Background Guinea Bissau is a former Portuguese colony, situated on the west coast of Africa. It has been affected by three periods of conflict, including the Liberation War (1963–1974), the Civil War (1998-1999) and the Casamance Conflict (March 2006) in the north which remains unresolved. These periods of fighting have left the largely rural and agricultural country of Guinea Bissau affected by mines and explosive remnants of war (ERW). ERW and mine contamination is contextualised by relatively very high rates of absolute poverty, rural marginalisation, low rates of rural and urban health and education services, and employment, and stalled or reversed socio-economic development. Weapons contamination and persistent, encompassing poverty are, themselves, contextualised by structural insecurity – frequently associated with criminality and armed violence – resulting from continuously contested government and weak and failing systems of governance. Project With funding from the United Nations Development Programme, Landmine Action conducted the country‟s first selective nationwide Impact Survey of 264 communities from October 2007 to May 20081. -

A todos os que participam e tornaram possível o projecto “Carboveg-GB: Quantificação do carbono armazenado e da capacidade de sumidouro da vegetação florestal da Guiné- Bissau”. Em particular à Doutora Maria José Vasconcelos, coordenadora do projecto, pela sua visão e dinamismo, por me ter fascinado com este trabalho e ter promovido esta oportunidade. Ao meu orientador, o Professor José Miguel Cardoso Pereira, por me ter cativado com a detecção remota e as suas possibilidades, pela sua contínua capacidade de me (re)animar em alturas de maior frustração. À Doutora Marina Temudo, minha co-orientadora, porque este trabalho não me faria qualquer sentido sem a abordagem multidisciplinar que a sua experiência e conhecimentos permitem. -
