Mushi and Richard Y. M. Kangalawe Institute of Resource Assessment, University of Dar es Salaam, P. O. Box 35097, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Tourism is one of the fastest growing sectors of the economy in Tanzania. This study was conducted to assess the climate change impacts on coastal tourism along the coast of Tanzania focusing on Bagamoyo District. Specifically, the study aimed at identifying climate change impacts on coastal resources that are used as tourist attractions, the vulnerability of coastal tourism and it is adapted to impacts. Data collection methods include Geographical Information System and remote sensing, key informants and household interviews, participant observation as well as review of secondary data sources. The results from the analysis of rainfall data from 1950-2007 showed that the rainfall availability trend declined by about 23 percent from about 1100 mm in the 1950s to 850 mm in 2007. This was mainly associated with variations and changing patterns. The mean maximum and minimum temperature increased by approximately 0.5°C and 2°C respectively, whereas the average annual temperature increased by 1°C from 1978 to 2008, causing discomfort to tourists as well as local communities. The impacts such as sea level rise and coastal erosion are evident, causing destruction of infrastructures such as hotels, cultural, historical, and archaeological sites, and sea walls and seawater intrusion into hotels compounds. The occurrences of climate-related diseases such as malaria, dysentery, and skin rashes were common, posing a threat to coastal tourism activities. Generally, incidences related to climate change

    The Ethiopian Journal of Social Sciences Volume 7, Number 1, May 2021 The 2016 Mass Protests and the Responses of Security Forces in ANRS, Ethiopia: Awi and West Gojjam Zones in Focus 1Kidanu Atinafu Abstract This study examined security forces’ abuse of power and their accountability in connection with the 2016 mass protests that unfolded in the Amhara National Regional State (ANRS) in general and Awi and West Gojjam Zones in particular. Specifically, the study assessed the nature of the use of force and the consequent investigations to punish security forces who abused their power. To address these objectives, the study employed a mixed methods research approach with a concurrent parallel design. Data for this research was obtained both from primary and secondary data sources. Interview, questionnaire and document analysis were used to collect data. A sample of 384 respondents was selected randomly to complete the questionnaire, whereas key informants were selected for the interview through snowball sampling technique. Based on the data gathered from all these sources, the study revealed that security forces committed arbitrary and extrajudicial killings and inflicted injuries against protesters who were chiefly unarmed and non-violent. The measures taken were found excessive and arbitrary with several civilians risking their lives and physical wellbeing. With few exceptions, the administrations at different levels of the government failed to investigate these extrajudicial and arbitrary killings and injuries inflicted in the process of punishing alleged perpetrators of the protest using civil and criminal laws. It is finally recommended to undertake independent investigations into the legitimacy of the murders, injuries, beatings and other forms of violence committed by the security forces.

  • Narratives of Environmental Disaster in Ethiopia: the Political Ecology of Famine
    Narratives of Environmental Disaster in Ethiopia: The Political Ecology of Famine By Abeal Biruk Supervised by Dr. Nirupama Agrawal A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies York University, Toronto, Ontario Canada July 31st, 2020 Abstract: The conception and inheritance of narratives are an important component of being human. At the foundation of many societies, narratives take shape through verbal and written stories, songs, artifacts, records of events, testimonials, and even memories. These narratives are carried forward to the next generation in the hopes of remembering and educating those who look to the past to understand their present and future environments. Despite ethnic and cultural differences, groups of people find ways to preserve the narratives that can either form or unite their identities together. This statement by no means disparages the impact of historical forces, such as European colonialism, that has tampered the narratives of countless Indigenous groups in North America, the Global South and Africa. The pursuit of identifying narratives can aid in the unravelling of so-called truths of history, seeking justice for people who can no longer do so themselves, and healing generations of systematic oppression in countless broken communities. Ethiopia has spent over a century facing significant drought conditions that have rendered many of the nation’s northern regions vulnerable to famine. For this reason, this paper focuses on the impacts of anthropogenic environmental disasters in Ethiopia, specifically the famine of 1983- 1985. The goal of this research is to analyze the 1983-1985 famine to understand its significance in relation to contemporary Ethiopian disaster management.
