Extractions: afrol.com, 24 September - Irritation is growing between the Indian Ocean neighbours of Comoros, Mauritius, Seychelles and Madagascar. The reconciliation pact between the Comoran government and Anjouan separatists is rejected by its neighbour states, which themselves struggle with differing claims on a great number of Indian Ocean islands. Yesterday, Mauritian and Comoran representatives attacked each other in the UN. Regional cooperation is of growing importance in the Indian Ocean islands off the African coast. But lately, regional cooperation has consisted of the countries Mauritius, Seychelles and Madagascar, leaving Comoros out. After several years of internal conflict and crisis, Comoros is reaching stabilisation reviewing its Constitution and heading for a federal state. This provokes the neighbours, the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC), threatening their ideal of not giving concessions to separatist movements.

Extractions: Overview Discovered by the Portuguese in 1505, Mauritius was subsequently held by the Dutch, French, and British before independence was attained in 1968. A stable democracy with regular free elections and a positive human rights record, the country has attracted considerable foreign investment and has earned one of Africa's highest per capita incomes. Recent poor weather and declining sugar prices have slowed economic growth, leading to some protests over standards of living in the Creole community.

Extractions: Berkeley Anthropologists Have Their Say Anthropologist Elizabeth Colson doesn't often think of the past. If asked, however, she easily recalls the year 1946, when she first traveled to Africa. Taking field supplies from Johannesburg, she and two other researchers journeyed for three days to Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia). There she met a fellow anthropologist, J. Desmond Clark. "Desmond somehow knew we were coming, and he met our train," she says. Colson, an American from Minnesota, and Clark, a Londoner, crossed paths that year when she became senior research officer and then director of the Rhodes- Livingstone Institute. He was curator of the David Livingstone Memorial Museum. "With Desmond, of course, prehistory was everything," Colson says, "although as curator of the museum he had to be interested in contemporary things, too." Desmond Clark's death in February 2002 ended this friendship of more than half a century. But the stories survive. Clark, Colson, and three other anthropologists recently documented their experiences through oral histories. Available as manuscripts and on the Web, the interviews complement Bancroft's other holdings in anthropology, archaeology, and linguistics. As told in the oral histories, Colson and Clark each spent substantial time in Africa, directing institutions and lighting up the developing field of anthropology with their work. While he pursued prehistory, she explored social-cultural issues among the Plateau and Gwembe Tonga. Both joined the Berkeley faculty in the 1960s.
Extractions: In 1994 the regional delegation in Nairobi once again provided a range of services for major ICRC operations in the region. Many of the agricultural and water and sanitation programmes implemented in East Africa required backup from Nairobi. The regional delegation also provided logistic support, tracing services, telecommunications, administrative assistance and information and press services for the large-scale operation in Rwanda. For tracing services alone, the delegation in Nairobi hired about 60 employees to work around the clock processing the files for Rwanda. Details concerning some 60,000 people were entered on computer in Nairobi. Activities were also conducted in Tanzania and Uganda for victims of the conflict in Rwanda and of those in Sudan and Somalia (see the relevant chapters). The regional water and sanitation coordinator worked mainly in connection with the crisis in Rwanda. Several evaluation missions were conducted early in the year from Burundi and Uganda to areas controlled by the two sides; these were followed up with logistic support. The ICRC dispatched chemicals (some 300 tonnes of aluminium sulphate and 50 tonnes of chlorination products) for water treatment from the delegation in Nairobi and from Kampala and Dar es Salaam. Emergency repair equipment was also supplied. In addition, the regional coordinator gave support to the ICRC's water and sanitation activities in Somalia and Sudan.
Extractions: The transfer of regional responsibilities to the Pretoria-based ICRC delegation on 1 January 1995 reflected the new-found political stability in southern Africa. In February the South African government and the ICRC signed a new Status Agreement, defining the ICRC's position as a regional delegation for southern Africa and the Indian Ocean. Despite the generally peaceful climate, however, insecurity still reigned in some areas. The South African province of KwaZulu/Natal and certain townships of Gauteng province were still plagued by politicized violence. Political unrest in Lesotho and Swaziland demonstrated that there too stability was not to be taken for granted. In the strife-ridden areas of South Africa the ICRC ran relief operations in conjunction with the National Society, distributing food parcels, kitchen sets, jerricans, plastic sheeting and blankets to thousands of victims. Beyond this, the main activities developed by the ICRC in the region involved promoting the role of the Red Cross, teaching international humanitarian law to defence forces and providing protection for detainees. Delegates made unannounced visits to police stations in KwaZulu/Natal to check the conditions of detention of people arrested in connection with political violence.

Extractions: SIYB originated from business management training materials called "Look After Your Firm" which had been developed by the Swedish Employers' Confederation. During the late 1970's, the Swedish International Development Agency (SIDA) funded an ILO project which adapted these materials to suit the needs of small entrepreneurs in developing countries. This new material was named “Improve Your Business” (IYB). At the same time, the ILO developed a specific training methodology, which was based on participatory learning and with an action oriented approach. The IYB training materials and methodology together became the IYB programme.
