Undiscovered Cape Verde
Tour Code: 48950 UNDISCOVERED CAPE Grade 6 Holiday Duration: 14 nights VERDE HOLIDAY DATES 26th Jan 2019 - 9th Feb 2019, 26th Oct 2019 - 9th Nov 2019 Exploring rugged Atlantic Islands... 19th Dec 2019 - 2nd Jan 2020 The Cape Verde Islands offer a unique blend of African and Portuguese history. We go to the geologically younger, where the way of life is relatively untouched by the outside world HOLIDAY HIGHLIGHTS Explore the dramatic canyons and fertile oases of Cape Verde’s "ribeiras". Meet friendly farmers and children on cobbled mountain and coastal trails. Discover Cidade Velha, the earliest colonial city - now a World Heritage site. Enjoy the blend of African and Portuguese culture, music and cuisine. UNDISCOVERED CAPE VERDE A day's good walking up the ribeiras on Santo Anto rewards you with stunning vistas over volcanic mountains, deep gorges and the bluest of seas. The prospect of a refreshing ocean dip, perhaps accompanied by a well- earned sundowner drink, entices you on the downward slope towards the white sand beaches. Tourism is still in its infancy here with the main development beside the sandy beaches of the flatter eastern islands. Instead, we head for the geologically younger, more rugged islands where there is some superb walking, and where the way of life is often relatively untouched by the outside world. We can enjoy the freshness of this new destination, while recognising that facilities will sometimes be limited. Our introduction to the archipelago is with the largest island of Santiago. Here we first stay on the coast at Cidade Velha, before travelling into the mountains to So Domingos, to see a glimpse of life in the very African interior. -

The authors would like to thank especially José Levy, Eunice Gomez, and the Resident Representative, Patricia de Mowbray, for their help and support. The UNDP-GEF Regional Coordination Unit in Dakar also provided support to the evaluation mission and the team would like to thank the UNDP-GEF Regional Technical Advisor, Fabiana Issler, for her input, particularly in arranging for completion of the review of the draft report. The evaluation team also wishes to express its gratitude to the Director of DGA, Ivone Lopes, and the whole of the project team for their time and enjoyable visits to Serra da Malagueta and Monte Gordo, particularly to the Project Coordinator, Maria Teresa Vera Cruz, the two Project Site Coordinators, José Luís Elba Martins (Serra da Malagueta) and Lazaro António Sá (Monte Gordo), and to the project’s Chief Technical Advisor, Abdelkader Bensada. The International Consultant would like to thank José Levy and Jeanne Gouba at the UNJO and Fabiana Issler of UNDP-GEF for very constructive comments on the draft MTE report, which helped to substantially strengthen and balance the final version. -
Assessment Report
Assessment Report Volcano Eruption Republic of Cabo Verde As of 16 December 2014 Prepared by UNDAC and the United Nations Office Cabo Verde SITUATION OVERVIEW The analysis in this document is based on the assessment conducted by the United Nations Disaster Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) Team and secondary data consolidated by the United Nations Office in Cabo Verde. 1 Severity of the Crisis A volcano eruption in Fogo Island, in Cabo Verde, began on 23 November and continues as of 16 December 2014. The eruption has had direct impact on the people living in Chã das Caldeiras, the volcano crater area. 1076 people have 1076 been evacuated from the area, of which 929 have been relocated in temporary People displaced from the affected accommodation centres and in houses built in the aftermath of the 1995 area of Chã das Caldeiras eruption, while the remaining are sheltered in host families’ homes. The affected people are a predominantly rural community, whose subsistence 929 largely depends on agriculture and livestock. As of 16 December, national People in collective centres and authorities report that lava has destroyed over 230 buildings, including the relocated in shelter housing national park headquarters, wine and jam production facilities, a primary school, a hotel, churches, 100% of Portela and Bangaeira infrastructure, as well Over 230 as more than 429 hectares of land, of which 120 hectares were agricultural Buildings destroyed land, resulting in great material and economic loss for the affected people and leaving many without a source of income. 2109 2 Priority Needs People potentially at risk of evacuation When requesting international assistance, the Government of Cabo Verde has identified the following priority needs: communication equipment, generators, temporary warehouse, tents, mattresses, portable toilets and showers, field 500 beds, blankets, bed-linen, kitchen kits, water containers and bottled water. -
An Integrative Taxonomic Revision of the Cape Verdean Skinks (Squamata, Scincidae)

An integra- Accepted: 15 September 2010 tive taxonomic revision of the Cape Verdean skinks (Squamata, Scincidae). — Zoologica doi:10.1111/j.1463-6409.2010.00453.x Scripta, 00, 000–000. A comprehensive taxonomic revision of the Cape Verdean skinks is proposed based on an integrative approach combining (i) a phylogenetic study pooling all the previously pub- lished molecular data, (ii) new population genetic analyses using mitochondrial and nuclear data resulting from additional sampling, together with (iii) a morphological study based on an extensive examination of the scalation and colour patterns of 516 live and museum spec- imens, including most of the types. All Cape Verdean species of skinks presently recogni- sed, formerly regarded as members of the genera Mabuya Fitzinger, 1826 and Macroscincus Bocage, 1873 are considered as members of the Cape Verdean endemic genus Chioninia Gray, 1845. The new phylogeny and networks obtained are congruent with the previously published phylogenetic studies, although suggesting older colonization events (between 11.6 and 0.8 Myr old), and indicate the need for taxonomic changes. Intraspecific diversity has been analysed and points to a very recent expansion of Chioninia delalandii on the southern islands and its introduction on Maio, to a close connection between Chioninia stangeri island populations due to Pleistocene sea-level falls and to a generally low haplo- typic diversity due to the ecological and geological characteristics of the archipelago. -
Cape Verde Islands, C. 1500–1879
TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History- Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT TRANSFORMATION OF “OLD” SLAVERY INTO ATLANTIC SLAVERY: CAPE VERDE ISLANDS, C. 1500–1879 By Lumumba Hamilcar Shabaka This dissertation explores how the Atlantic slave trade integrated the Cape Verde archipelago into the cultural, economic, and political milieu of Upper Guinea Coast between 1500 and 1879. The archipelago is about 300 miles off the coast of Senegal, West Africa. The Portuguese colonized the “uninhabited” archipelago in 1460 and soon began trading with the mainland for slaves and black African slaves became the majority, resulting in the first racialized Atlantic slave society. Despite cultural changes, I argue that cultural practices by the lower classes, both slaves and freed slaves, were quintessentially “Guinean.” Regional fashion and dress developed between the archipelago and mainland with adorning and social use of panu (cotton cloth). In particular, I argue Afro-feminine aesthetics developed in the islands by freed black women that had counterparts in the mainland, rather than mere creolization. Moreover, the study explores the social instability in the islands that led to the exile of liberated slaves, slaves, and the poor, the majority of whom were of African descent as part of the Portuguese efforts to organize the Atlantic slave trade in the Upper th Guinea Coast. With the abolition of slavery in Cape Verde in the 19 century, Portugal used freed slaves and the poor as foot soldiers and a labor force to consolidate “Portuguese Guinea.” Many freed slaves resisted this mandatory service. -
