The overall aim of the association is to improve the quality of life and future prospects of poor people, women in particular. The main target groups are the urban poor, the displaced and refugees. The NGO has maintained a dynamic relationship with ACORD and is currently working with ACORD on the Eastern Sudan Rural Urban Linkages Programme (SUD/25). Programme teams from Northern and Southern Sudan attended a Focus Meeting in Zurich on 21-22 May 2001 to design and present a unified country strategy as part of ACORDs planning and consultation process for its future programming implementation in Sudan. The meeting was also aimed at sharing viewpoints, information and strategies with partners, supporters and colleagues working on humanitarian aid development issues. The meeting was hosted by HEKS, one of ACORDs consortium members.

Extractions: By Father Martin Ritsi God’s call to serve Him has been given throughout biblical history. We see this in His calling of Abraham, Moses, Jonah, and the Prophets. It is woven throughout the Old and New Testaments, as God elects people to proclaim His message. But most powerfully the calling to follow the Lord and preach the Gospel to all creation is seen at the Ascension of Jesus Christ. In His last appearance to the disciples, just before His ascension into heaven, Jesus commissions them with these parting words: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit…" (Matt. 28:19). What about today, is God still calling? To answer this question we can first look at the situation of the world, nearly 2,000 years later. Living in a country where the majority professes to be Christian can make it hard to realize that only 1/3 of all humanity is Christian. Even harder to imagine, in a world of jet travel, technology and the Internet, is that of the 2/3 who are not Christian there are 1.5 billion people who have never heard the Gospel or met a Christian in their entire lives!

Extractions: 17. Zambia (see Map 1 and Figure 3A) A. Angola - Trend in numbers of displaced/war affected. Nutritional and food security information on affected populations is still patchy although, with some exceptions, most surveys in 1995 have indicated levels of wasting below 10%. Subject to the results of the coming harvest, some agencies are planning to phase out general ration distributions. There are however, still numerous reports of large numbers of people in desperate need of food aid. For example, one recent assessment found 21,000 people in need of immediate food assistance in UNITA controlled Quibala town, which recently became accessible. Additional relief requirements have also been identified in Huambo and resumption of full general rations (rations had recently been cut to half) have been reported as necessary in Cubal given the loss of the maize crop [WFP 25/03/95, WFP 07/04/95]. More recent information from Luena is that wasting levels have continued to rise and are currently as high as 20.3% (see Annex 1 (1b)). Several measures to improve the food distribution system have been taken as a result of this. These include automatic referral of families with malnourished children for enrolment on the general ration programme, opening 20 feeding kitchens serving all children under five years old, ex-camp residents and displaced persons identified as food insecure [WFP 07/04/95].
Extractions: P.O. Box 1661, BUKOBA - KAGERA. Abstract The Kagera Livestock Development Programme (KALIDEP) had 2096 smallholder dairy farmers (1-2 cows with followers) and 2382 cows, which produced 4.1 million litres of milk in fiscal year 1993/94. Smallholder milk production, achieved on zero grazing basis, depends mostly on the Kikulula Heifer Breeding Complex of the National Ranching Company and the Heifer-in-Trust (HIT) credit scheme for heifer supply. The HIT credit scheme is also the major source of credit for starting smallholder dairy farmers in Kagera Region. These two sources of heifers supplied, approximately on equal basis, a total of 487 pregnant heifers out of 517 distributed to new farmers in fiscal year 1993/94. Approximately 500 fully prepared farmers were on the waiting list as of 1st July, 1994. The present paper discusses the constraints to and potential for increasing heifer and credit supply for small scale dairying in Kagera, in striving to meet KALIDEP's targets of 6000 dairy farmers and 5000 dairy cows producing 12 million litres of milk by the year 2000.
