Read a summary of the agreements reached so far (September 3, 2002) at Johannesburg by IFG's Environment Project Director Victor Menotti: Where To Go After Johannesburg? Cancun or Bust!
A brief overview
On August 26th to September 4th, 2002, the United Nations (UN) World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) is meeting in Johannesburg, South Africa. This ten-year retrospective of the 1992 Rio +10 summit is designed to "seek consensus on the general assessment of current conditions, and on priorities for further action in new areas or issues." UN planning sessions for the summit are now underway and it is already clear that the WSSD is not addressing in any substantial way the number one threat to the survival of the natural world - economic globalization. A decade after the Rio Earth Summit there is nearly unanimous agreement among participating countries and organizations that the outcome has been a failure. The Rio processes have not achieved any of their goals, and some of the most notable undertakings, as in the area of climate change, have been profoundly disappointing.

    Save a personal copy of this article and quickly find it again with Furl.net. It's free! Save it. Pampang, a village inhabited by Kenyah Dayaks, an indigenous people of Indonesian Borneo, was recently declared the first "culture village" in the province of East Kalimantan. This study traces the development of "Pampang Culture Village" and examines the incipient effects of tourism on the lives and livelihoods of local people. Even as the village's cultivation as a tourist destination has begun to garner benefits for residents, their role in the enterprise remains ambiguous. Left unresolved, this confusion could contribute to fissures within the community. Another disturbing side effect is the creation of a new arena for competition among native subgroups. Competition for tourists may have negative consequences for whether indigenous peoples can forge and maintain a common identity for themselves in an era of rapid social transformation.

    4. From Bali to Johannesburg For two weeks in June representatives met for PrepCom 4, the final official round of negotiations before the World Summit in Johannesburg. The aim of the preparatory process before the summit is for the major groups involved to debate and arrive at substantial agreement on the outcomes of the summit.
    Given the widespread feeling that Agenda 21 has not been adequately implemented in the decade since the Rio Earth summit, the call has been for a clear implementation plan with specific targets and time schedules and for a supporting political declaration.
    At a briefing on the WSSD process on Tuesday morning, 18 June 2002, WSSD Secretary General, Nitin Desai, said that the text of the Draft Plan of Implementation for the WSSD as it was on 7 June will go forward to Johannesburg with no changes. Delegates will have to present any work done in between once the WSSD begins in August.
    Most of the 27 per cent of the text that is unresolved is in the chapters on globalisation and means of implementation, and deals mainly with trade and finance. Most commentators agree that the challenge for Johannesburg will be finding common ground, rather than time, to resolve these issues, with some arguing that failure to agree on these issues will undermine the ability to implement agreements in many other areas

    Peace-building in Aceh through Community-based Participatory Economic Development
    The Japanese Ambassador Yutaka Iimura, US Ambassador Ralph L. Boyce, Italian Ambassador Maria Greco (representing the European Union) and World Bank Director Andrew Steer visited Aceh from 13-15 January 2003 to demonstrate the support of the international community for the peace process in which the Indonesian government and the Free Aceh Movement (GAM) have agreed to end the conflict and begin post-conflict reconstruction in Aceh. This visit was a follow-up to the Preparatory Conference on Peace and Reconstruction in Aceh held in Tokyo on 3 December 2002. The donors participating in this conference agreed to provide economic aid to support the implementation of this agreement. The agreement was discussed in more detail at the CGI meeting 21-22 January 2003. During this visit, the delegation met with both legislative and executive local government bodies, the Joint Security Committee, GAM, Muslim religious leaders, civil society representatives, humanitarian aid workers and the business community, as well as the Co-ordinating Minister for Political and Social Affairs, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. The delegation agreed that the most appropriate economic development model for Aceh was community-based development using a participatory approach, such as the Kecamatan (subdistrict) Development Programme pioneered by the World Bank and currently in progress. This is in keeping with the principles expressed by the donor community that there is a strong relationship between economic development and the peace process, meaning that not only can the peace process improve economic development but also that economic development can bring peace.

    Bali, Indonesia, 27 May -7 June, 2002 Participants in the 4th and final PrepCom before the World Summit on Sustainable Development gathered on the beautiful, spirit-filled island of Bali, Indonesia. The climate was tropical, the Balinese people were gracious and welcoming. The venue for the meeting was sumptuous. The irony of meeting in a place of such opulence to look for ways to wipe out the scourge of poverty was not lost on many who gathered. I SUMMARY OF THE TWO WEEKS 1. The Meeting: The task of the meeting was to continue negotiation on the Revised Chairman’s Paper that began during the informal consultations that preceded PrepCom IV. After the plenary session the work was divided between 3 working groups.
    Working Group I dealt with the introduction; poverty eradication; changing unsustainable patterns of consumption and production; protection and management of the natural resource base for economic and social development.
    Working Group II continued its work on sustainable development in a globalising world; health and sustainable development; Small Island Developing States; Africa; means of implementation.

    Kingdom on Mount Cameroon: Studies in the History of the Cameroon Coast, 1500-1970; Cameroon Studies, Volume 1. By Edwin Ardener. Edited and with an Introduction by Shirley Ardener. (Providence and Oxford: Berghahn Books, 1996. Pp. xix, 380. $49.95.) In fact, both of these volumes stand at the methodological crossroads between history and anthropology in that they strive to unravel the sometimes-obscure chronology and context of the Cameroonian past using the tools and approaches of both of those disciplines. The first volume of the series constitutes a partial collection of the efforts of a scholar whose work mainly appeared in the 1950s and 1960s "when Cameroon Studies were in their relative infancy" (xviii). The second, dedicated to another ground-breaking researcher in the field, E. M. Chilver, is a diverse assembly of papers by more recent researchers who build on earlier work on the Bamenda Grassfields of Cameroon. In African Crossroads: Intersections between History and Anthropology in Cameroon, Ian Fowler and David Zeitlyn lead off with a discussion of the scholarly controversies surrounding the economic and linguistic diversity of the Grassfields area. An emphasis is placed on the "Tikar Problem", wherein the many dynasties claiming descent from the Tikar have neither linguistic nor cultural commonalities among them. The editors suggest that the Tikar introduced a "model" for a tribe, which Grassfields, chiefdoms emulated by claiming origin from them. Richard Fardon, in the first essay, "The Person, Ethnicity and the Problem of Identity in West Africa," confirms the view that the identity of the Chamba seems to be a product of the retrojection of the tribe's collective memory into a comprehensive historical narrative in which they could not have participated.
