However, trypanosomiasis cases have not been reported from that area for decades and it is believed that transmission no longer occurs. A large tsetse fly control programme has been implemented for many years in this area. The country has excellent health structures but no specific HAT surveillance system, for which there is apparently no need.

    The Luanda to Ambaca Railway As a Pioneer Case of the Transfer of Technical Engineering Knowledge Overseas to Africa

    The Luanda to Ambaca Railway as a pioneer case of the transfer of technical engineering knowledge overseas to Africa. Bruno J. Navarro Interuniversity Center of Science History and Technology On 31 October 1886, three years after construction work had started on the Tua Line, the official launch ceremony was held for the Luanda-Ambaca railway, the first inland railway that the Portuguese state planned in its vast overseas space. It was the culmination of a long process of reorganization of the Portuguese colonial empire, marked out between the independence of Brazil and the defining of an agenda for the promotion of the African provinces, due to the urgent necessity to promote effective occupation of those territories, just as they had been imposed, by the major European powers at the 1885 Berlin Conference. To politicians and especially the professional class of Portuguese engineers, the railway emerged as a prodigious symbol of modernity and development, an indispensible tool for strategic territorial ownership (of a region where lines of communication were practically inexistent). It was as well directed to its population, a systematic implementation of the Portuguese state’s administrative machinery, economic use of natural resources – in domestic and foreign trade – , agricultural and industrial revitalization, and above all, the affirmation of Portugal (a small country in peripheral Europe, but in the political center in extensive colonial rule) in the community of nations that disputed influence and power in Africa. The first stretch, with a distance of 45 km linking Luanda to Funda, was open to exploitation on 1 November 1888. The connection to Ambaca appeared to be, in the spirit of its ambitious mentors, the first stage (353 km) of a more extensive project, whose ultimate goal would be the link to the opposite shore of the continent in Mozambique, in the Zambezi region.

    Working Paper Civil wars and state formation: violence and the politics of legitimacy in angola, côte d'ivoire and south sudan PECLARD, Didier, et al. Abstract Civil wars do not only destroy existing political orders. They contribute to shaping new ones, and thereby play a crucial role in dynamics of state formation. This working paper is based on a 2-year research project funded by the Swiss Network of International Studies and conducted by a consortium of five research institutions in Switzerland and Africa. It reflects on the social construction of order and legitimacy during and after violent conflict by focusing on political orders put in place by armed groups, their strategies to legitimize their (violent) action as well as their claim to power, and on the extent to which they strive and manage to institutionalize their military power and transform it into political domination. Drawing on case studies in Angola, Côte d'Ivoire and South Sudan, it shows how strategies of legitimization are central to understanding the politics of armed groups and their relation to the state, how international aid agencies impact on the legitimacy of armed groups and state actors, and how continuities between war and peace, especially in key sectors such as security forces, need to be taken [...] Reference PECLARD, Didier, et al.

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.

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.

    Tell Me Still, Angola the False Thing That Is Dystopia

    https://doi.org/10.22409/gragoata.v26i55.47864 Tell me Still, Angola the False Thing that is Dystopia Solange Evangelista Luis a ABSTRACT José Luis Mendonça’s book Angola, me diz ainda (2017) brings together poems from the 1980s to 2016, unveiling a constellation of images that express the unfulfilled utopian Angolan dream. Although his poems gravitate around his personal experiences, they reflect a collective past. They can be understood as what Walter Benjamin called monads: historical objects (BENJAMIN, 2006, p. 262) based on the poet’s own experiences, full of meaning, emotions, feelings, and dreams. Through these monadic poems, his poetry establishes a dialogue with the past. The poet’s dystopic present is that of an Angola distanced from the dream manifested in the insubmissive poetry of Agostinho Neto and of the Message Generation, which incited decolonization through a liberation struggle and projected a utopian new nation. Mendonça revisits Neto’s Message Generation and its appeal to discover Angola: unveiling a nation with a broken dream and a dystopic present, denouncing a future that is still to come. The poet’s monads do not dwell on dystopia but wrestle conformism, fanning the spark of hope (BENJAMIN, 2006, p. 391). They expose what Adorno named the false thing (BLOCH, 1996, p. 12), sparking the longing for something true: reminding the reader that transformation is inevitable. Keywords: Angolan Literature.

    The Botanical Exploration of Angola by Germans During the 19Th and 20Th Centuries, with Biographical Sketches and Notes on Collections and Herbaria

    Blumea 65, 2020: 126–161 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/blumea.2020.65.02.06 The botanical exploration of Angola by Germans during the 19th and 20th centuries, with biographical sketches and notes on collections and herbaria E. Figueiredo1, *, G.F. Smith1, S. Dressler 2 Key words Abstract A catalogue of 29 German individuals who were active in the botanical exploration of Angola during the 19th and 20th centuries is presented. One of these is likely of Swiss nationality but with significant links to German Angola settlers in Angola. The catalogue includes information on the places of collecting activity, dates on which locations botanical exploration were visited, the whereabouts of preserved exsiccata, maps with itineraries, and biographical information on the German explorers collectors. Initial botanical exploration in Angola by Germans was linked to efforts to establish and expand Germany’s plant collections colonies in Africa. Later exploration followed after some Germans had settled in the country. However, Angola was never under German control. The most intense period of German collecting activity in this south-tropical African country took place from the early-1870s to 1900. Twenty-four Germans collected plant specimens in Angola for deposition in herbaria in continental Europe, mostly in Germany. Five other naturalists or explorers were active in Angola but collections have not been located under their names or were made by someone else. A further three col- lectors, who are sometimes cited as having collected material in Angola but did not do so, are also briefly discussed. Citation: Figueiredo E, Smith GF, Dressler S.
