    Gorilla Extract from No. 18 June 1999 Journal Tourist Killings in Bwindi About 100 armed men entered Uganda from the Democratic Republic of Con go on March 1st to raid 3 tourist camps in Buhoma, Bwindi Impenetrable National Park. Buildings were looted and set on fi re, vehicles were burnt, and 17 people were kidnapped and taken into the forest. It seems likely that the attackers had been told about the exact wherea- bouts of the tourists by Ugandans. After freeing some hostages, the kidnappers hack ed 8 tourists to death with machetes (4 Britons, 2 Americans and 2 New Zealanders). One Ugandan, the Community Conservation Offi cer John Ross Wagaba, was shot and his body set on fi re. It is not clear to which group the murderers belong. They spoke Kisua heli, French and Kinyarwanda. Some people de- scribed them as Interaham we, others as Hutu militia. They themselves said that they belonged to the ALIR (Rwandan Libera- tion Army) which has become notorious for their numerous raids in northwestennorthwesten Rwan da. Since the war in Rwanda, some ten thousand Rwandan rebels, militia and bandits are said to roam the forests of eastern Congo and the Virunga National Park. Afterwards, a group calling itself NALU (National Army for the Liberation of Uganda) claimed responsibility for the murders. This could not be confi rmed. After the massacre, the rebels forced a Ugandan to show them the way back to the Congo. Ugandan and Rwandan troops immediately took up the chase. By the end of March, they had killed 35 Rwandan rebels and captured 4.

Llamada originalmente Etulá por la población autóctona de la isla, los bubis; Formosa y posteriormente Fernando Poo por los europeos; o Macías Nguema Biyogo por el presidente del mismo nombre; la actual isla de Bioko, ubicada en el Golfo de Guinea y perteneciente a la república de Guinea Ecuatorial, es uno de los territorios del África Ecuatorial con mayor riqueza natural y etnográfica. Sin embargo, es uno de los destinos turísticos menos visitados de todo el continente. Pocos son los turistas que se deciden por esta isla para disfrutar de unos días de vacaciones y desconexión, muy probablemente por la imagen política y sanitaria, principalmente, que tiene a nivel exterior. No obstante, también influye la casi completa pasividad por parte del gobierno respecto del sector turístico hasta hace pocos años. Por su parte, España, tanto por razones históricas como lingüísticas, es uno de los países donde puede existir un mayor número de turistas potenciales, por lo que dar a conocer este lugar a los españoles supone un aporte destacable a la carrera que está llevando a cabo el gobierno ecuatoguineano en los últimos años para impulsar el turismo. Una de las mejores formas de atraer dicho turismo, ya sea proveniente de España o de cualquier otro país, es una descripción de los diferentes recursos turísticos existentes, en este caso, en Bioko, como se realiza, tras una parte preliminar, en las siguientes páginas.

    THE PERCEPTION of CHILD POVERTY AMONG CAMEROONIAN FAMILIES Children´S Capabilities in Cameroonian Households in Berlin

    THE PERCEPTION OF CHILD POVERTY AMONG CAMEROONIAN FAMILIES Children´s Capabilities in Cameroonian households in Berlin Doctoral Thesis Submitted in fulfilment for the degree of Doctor Philosophiae (Dr. Phil.) At the Micro-sociology Institute of the Philosophical Faculty III, Humboldt University to Berlin / Germany By Diane Flora Brahms, born Nsong Supervisors: 1st: Mr Professor Doctor Hans Bertram 2nd: Mrs Professor Doctor sec. Karin Lohr President of the Humboldt University to Berlin: Mr Prof. Dr. Jan-Hendrick Olbertz (2012) Dean of the Philosophical faculty at the Humboldt University in Berlin: Mrs Prof. Dr. Julia von Blumenthal (2012) Berlin / Germany, October 2015 Date of the oral exam: October 16th 2015 ABSTRACT Why should the perception of child poverty in Cameroonian families in Germany be analysed? This is a question we had to deal with all through this research phase. Why does it matter to take time trying to understand how Cameroonian people perceive child poverty and how it can impacts the Capabilities of their children in the German setting? Although the concept of poverty may seem obvious, experiencing it is a different story because of the way people perceive it. An interesting point in Cameroonian families in Berlin is that the concept of child poverty does not exist in their cultural background based on their languages. This is because children are viewed as their wealth. This study is an investigation of the Cameroonian perception of child poverty in Berlin and the application of the Capability Approach on it. The aim is to find out according to this, the future life opportunities of children with Cameroonian background in Germany.

    Hernández-González et al. Parasites & Vectors (2016) 9:509 DOI 10.1186/s13071-016-1779-8 RESEARCH Open Access Evaluation of onchocerciasis seroprevalence in Bioko Island (Equatorial Guinea) after years of disease control programmes Ana Hernández-González1,4, Laura Moya2,3, María J. Perteguer1,4, Zaida Herrador2,4, Rufino Nguema4,5, Justino Nguema4,5, Pilar Aparicio2,4, Agustín Benito2,4 and Teresa Gárate1,4* Abstract Background: Onchocerciasis or “river blindness” is a chronic parasitic disease caused by the filarial worm Onchocerca volvulus, transmitted through infected blackflies (Simulium spp.). Bioko Island (Equatorial Guinea) used to show a high endemicity for onchocerciasis. During the last years, the disease control programmes using different larvicides and ivermectin administration have considerably reduced the prevalence and intensity of infection. Based on this new epidemiological scenario, in the present work we aimed to assess the impact of the strategies applied against onchocerciasis in Bioko Island by an evaluation of IgG4 antibodies specific for recombinant Ov-16 in ELISA. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Bioko Island from mid-January to mid-February, 2014. Twenty communities were randomly selected from rural and urban settings. A total of 140 households were chosen. In every selected household, all individuals aged 5 years and above were recruited; 544 study participants agreed to be part of this work. No previous data on onchocerciasis seroprevalence in the selected communities were available. Blood samples were collected and used in an “ELISA in-house” prepared with recombinant Ov-16, expressed and further purified. IgG4 antibodies specific for recombinant Ov-16 were evaluated by ELISA in all of the participants.

    Who Knows What About Gorillas? Indigenous Knowledge, Global Justice, and Human-Gorilla Relations Volume: 5 Adam Pérou Hermans Amir, Ph.D

    IK: Other Ways of Knowing Peer Reviewed Who Knows What About Gorillas? Indigenous Knowledge, Global Justice, and Human-Gorilla Relations Volume: 5 Adam Pérou Hermans Amir, Ph.D. Pg. 1-40 Communications Coordinator, Tahltan Central Government The gorillas of Africa are known around the world, but African stories of gorillas are not. Indigenous knowledge of gorillas is almost entirely absent from the global canon. The absence of African accounts reflects a history of colonial exclusion, inadequate opportunity, and epistemic injustice. Discounting indigenous knowledge limits understanding of gorillas and creates challenges for justifying gorilla conservation. To be just, conservation efforts must be endorsed by those most affected: the indigenous communities neighboring gorilla habitats. As indigenous ways of knowing are underrepresented in the very knowledge from which conservationists rationalize their efforts, adequate justification will require seeking out and amplifying African knowledge of gorillas. In engaging indigenous knowledge, outsiders must reflect on their own ways of knowing and be open to a dramatically different understanding. In the context of gorillas, this means learning other ways to know the apes and indigenous knowledge in order to inform and guide modern relationships between humans and gorillas. Keywords: Conservation, Epistemic Justice, Ethnoprimatology, Gorilla, Local Knowledge, Taboos 1.0 Introduction In the Lebialem Highlands of Southwestern Cameroon, folk stories tell of totems shared between gorillas and certain people. Totems are spiritual counterparts. Herbalists use totems to gather medicinal plants; hunting gorillas puts them in doi 10.26209/ik560158 danger. If the gorilla dies, the connected person dies as well (Etiendem 2008). In Lebialem, killing a gorilla risks killing a friend, elder, or even a chief (fon).

Identification keys have been added for genera and species of the subfamily. The best represented genus is Macaranga with ten species. Bibliographical references for Acalyphoideae (Euphorbiaceae) from Equatorial Guinea have been gathered and checked. Eight taxa are recorded for the first time from the country. One species is included based on literature records, because its distribution ranges suggest it may occur in Equatorial Guinea, and two introduced species could be naturalized. Key words: biodiversity, flora, floristics, tropical Africa Introduction The Euphorbiaceae sensu stricto are one of the largest and most diverse plant families with over 246 genera and 6300 species. Additionally they are one of the most diversified angiosperm families. The circumscription and the systematic position of this family have been controversial (Webster 1994, Wurdack et al. 2005, Xi et al. 2012). Today Euphorbiaceae s.str. are subdivided into four subfamilies: Cheilosioideae, Acalyphoideae, Crotonoideae and Euphorbioideae (Radcliffe-Smith 2001, APG 2009). Acalyphoideae are the largest subfamily of Euphorbiaceae and have a pantropical distribution.
