The whole area is designated "Wandorobo, a very poor people despised and maltreated by all tribes around".

Extractions: Oloipung'o Experience - Sample Itinerary Day 1-2 - Depart your hometown for flight to East Africa. Arrive either in Nairobi or Kilimanjaro International Airport. Relax and recover from travels. Day 3-4 - Drive from Arusha, Tanzania to Lolkisale in Monduli District. We spend the first part of the day meeting local farmers and discussing issues related to environment and resources and learning some aspects of Tanzanian life. After lunch we proceed to a Maasai village where you get a chance to see how true "earthpeople" live. There is opportunity to ask many questions about the Maasai lifestyle and culture, including their intimate interaction with the natural world. We sleep next to their indigenous huts in their village in our own tents. The next morning, we do a hike up a nearby mountain. We watch baboons and see and hear an amazing amount of birds as we sit on rocks overlooking the African savannah. After saying goodbye to our Maasai hosts, we drive to Tarangire National Park where we spend the evening in a tented lodge. Day 5 - Game drive the following day in Tarangire, an acacia woodland ecosystem, where you will see many elephants, giraffes and most of the animals that have made East Africa the famous wildlife viewing area that it is. We spend the night in the same tented lodge. The lodge overlooks Tarangire River where you can see many animals drinking water while you sip drinks from the lodge patios. We can meet for a discussion about conservation of wildlife and indigenous cultures in the region.

Their founder was Johann Conrad Beissel (16901768), a native of Eberbach and one of the first emigrants, who, after living as a hermit for several years on Mill Creek, Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, founded the sect (1725), then again lived as a hermit in a cave.

Extractions: 5. Special Need: Indonesia This Week's Lead Story - He Boldly Goes Where No Missionary Dares To Go The leader of a 30-year-old indigenous ministry in Colombia is willing to go where nobody else will go. He started his ministry in Bogota, the capital of Colombia. But soon he felt led by the Lord to explore a region that was a "desert" for the gospel: Los Llanos (the plains) of Colombia. That area of Northeast Colombia is a battlefield of four different violent groups: the military, the drug cartel bands, the paramilitary army, and terrorists. Many organizations have already recalled their missionaries out of that region, and not even the official religion of the country (Roman Catholicism) is sending priests to minister to the forgotten hundreds of thousands of people scattered in towns and villages alongside the rivers of Los Llanos. The Latin America director for Christian Aid visited the group a couple of years ago: "The ministry leader took me to visit a church planted in a remote riverside village in Los Llanos. As the local missionary and I sat talking in hammocks in front of his hut, he suddenly interrupted our conversation and told me to hide. He spoke with great urgency. From my hiding place, I saw the entire village in pandemonium. Within seconds I heard a truck approaching on the only road into the village. At least a dozen armed men dressed in commando uniforms rode in the bed of the truck. As they entered the town I heard several shots ring out amid the cries and screams of the villagers. Then, as if nothing had happened, the truck left the village.

Embora os dois países africanos tenham emergido do colonialismo em diferentes momentos históricos (O Quénia em 1963 e o Zimbabwe em 1980), eles partilham experiências coloniais similares. Foram colonizados pelos britânicos, e o Estado colonial instituiu políticas que subordinaram os direitos e interesses dos povos indígenas aos seus. Edificando uma sociedade racista, o Estado colonial apoiou a alienação de quase toda a terra arável em detrimento dos africanos, conduzindo à criação de uma Economia colonial. Os camponeses e os sem

Extractions: ECO ECO PIECES International Revenues from international tourism shrank 2.6 percent last year because Sept. 11 "severely aggravated" the impact of a global economic slowdown, according to the World Tourism Organization . The United States was among the hardest-hit countries, with its earnings from foreign tourists falling by 11.9 percent. The global downturn was worse than forecast in the aftermath of the attacks, but the WTO forecast (if anyone can forecast anything) it will return to growth by the end of this year. France remained the top destination with 76.5 million visitors, followed by Spain at 49.5, with the US falling to third place with 45 m. Greenpeace argued that 12 percent of the world's future electricity by 2020 could be derived from wind power, and that the only thing that stands in the way of a Renewable Energy revolution is the lack of political will. We can think of a couple of more characters standing in the way.

Extractions: Kenya is a nation of 28,337,000 people located on the eastern coast of the continent of Africa bordering the Indian Ocean between Somalia and Tanzania. Kenya has a total land area of 582,650 km (or almost 227,600 mi ), which is slightly smaller than the states of Arizona and New Mexico together. Kenya's land is only 7% arable, or capable of supporting agriculture, with only 1% devoted to permanent crop production. However, nearly 37% of Kenya's land is used for pasture land. Cattle production remains one of the more important economic products of Kenya. Kenya's climate is highly variable over its territory, from a lush tropical environment in the south near the coast, to arid regions in the north and west, to the glacier-capped peaks of Mount Kenya. Kenya still has one of Africa's more promising agricultural potentials despite recurring drought and famine in the more remote areas of the north. Kenya was a disputed territory between the various European naval powers who explored the area in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In the 1880's the territorial claims of Britain were established in the region, and in 1895 the United Kingdom established the British East Africa Protectorate. Kenya was declared a colony of Britain in 1920. After years of turmoil and a revolution, independence from Britain was finally gained on December 12, 1963 (which is celebrated as the Kenyan Independence Day). The first independent President of Kenya was Jomo Kenyatta, who ruled from 1964 to his death in 1978. Vice President Daniel Arap Moi succeeded him and is President to this day. The first multiparty elections were held in Kenya in 1992.

But a raging global debate over the health and environmental aspects of genetically modified (GM) food is sobering scientific enthusiasm. Nevertheless scientists as well as agricultural policy experts in China think GM technology can and should be tapped as a tool to combat poverty. 1,146 words By Vincent Zulu: Western countries poured aid into Zambia when Frederick Chiluba became president and began rolling out his economic reforms programme. Now Chiluba faces corruption charges and Zambia remains one of the poorest nations on earth.

Rather, donors and poor countries alike should be asking themselves: Are aid programmes devised in close consultation with the poor or not? 1,034 words

Extractions: ASA 2002 SUMMARY OF PANEL PRESENTATIONS The ASA 2002 conference was held in Arusha, Tanzania, from the 8 th th April. Held as a single-stream conference, participants listened to 75 presentations in 14 panels, as well as to 4 keynote addresses. The following summary gives a flavour of the conference, based on the content of the oral presentations, written abstracts and full papers submitted. The conference convenors chose the conference theme Perspectives on Time and Society: Experience, Memory, History as one that would signal the important convergence of anthropological and historical perspectives in thinking about the relationship of time to history. They also prepared introductory presentations to signal some of the themes they felt apposite for discussion during the conference. In her introductory presentation, Wendy James signaled the two different ways in which anthropologists have often discussed time, contrasting some scholars emphasis on the specific culturally-embedded ways in which time is marked with those who adopt a more rationalist perspective on the common experiential foundations of the category. Presenting a number of criticisms of both approaches, including their common inability to tackle the notion of historical time, she proposed paths towards a possible synthesis.
