Abstract:

Starting with European colonization, African natural resources in particular and nature in general have been coveted and exploited mainly in the interest of Euro-American industrialized countries, with China as a recent major player from Asia. Interestingly, the incessant quest by some Western NGOs, institutions, and governments to protect and conserve African nature not only are inspired by ecological and climatic concerns but also often tend to propagate a false image of Africa as the last Eden of the earth in order to control Africa’s resources. Using literary texts, this article argues tha

Abstract:

Civil-military cooperation (CIMIC) has officially emerged as a coordinated strategy between the United Nations peacekeeping missions and humanitarian non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to enable access to people in need of assistance in complex emergencies. However, this integrated approach raises serious concerns regarding the respect of traditional principles of humanitarian action: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, and independence. While some humanitarian NGOs are opposed to any form of collaboration with the military, others believe this cooperation is very important to enable access

Abstract:

No account of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, held at Rio de Janeiro in June 1992 and popularly known as the Earth Summit, would be complete without coverage of the activity of non-governmental organizations (NGOs). They generated debate with the government and in the media in many, perhaps most, countries. They took part in the preparatory work, wrote special reports, joined governmental delegations to Rio and ran a large forum in parallel to the official conference. UN officials have described the role of NGOs as having been ‘unprecedented‘, and that is the gene

Due to the intensive collaboration of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) at the parallel »summit« to the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and due to the similarily positive experiences at the World Population Conference in Cairo and the World Bank/IMF Meeting in Madrid, the environmental and development NGOs are increasingly gaining influence. At the same time, this development is a challenge to the organization structures and action plans of these organisations. The formation of networks on regional, national and international level

How the dynamics of engaging with local communities are evolving, what lies ahead for them in the near and distant future, how collaborative initiatives between businesses and NGOs assist residents in fostering their localities, and what factors enhance the social efficacy of such endeavors — these were among the topics discussed by urban planners, NGOs, futurists, and business delegates at the City and Community Development practical conference held in Moscow in February 2024.

ABSTRACT: In northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, local and international non-governmental organizations have, for the last decade, built a network of two-way radios to connect rural communities in order to better protect them from armed groups active in the region. This article moves along this radio network to explore the concepts of remoteness and connection. Rural residents and humanitarians alike describe the region as “enclaved,” drawing on Congolese experiences and conceptions of isolation and vulnerability to appeal for greater connection.

In this wake, it is necessary to appreciate the contribution of NGOs on the financing of the health sector and its impact on "PBF" performance in the urban-rural health zone of Butembo. The major concern was whether the Performance Based Financing system “PBF”, initiated by HealthNet TPO, reduced the financial barrier to accessing health care. In addition, it was necessary to know whether this system increased the self-financing of the FOSA supported to ensure its post-project. After the field surveys, the results showed that the PBF system reduced to some extent the financial barrier to acces

Abstract:

The seventeenth Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) conference of the parties (CoP) exhibited a draconian opposition to any trade in ivory. A key component of this opposition was the intergovernmental regime’s consolidation of North–South power differentials through the increased presence and influence of Northern conservation-focused NGOs. Using the example of ivory, this Forum article unpacks this dynamic before advocating for more participatory, decentralized, and polycentric approaches to the global governance of endangered species trade at future CITES CoPs.

Abstract:

Since the globalization era and the end of the Cold War, the environment is the third agenda after international security and the global economy (Porter and Brown, 1996). In 1972, the Stockholm Conference, the first global environmental meeting, led to the establishment of the United Nations of Environment Programme (UNEP) in 1974. Its aim was for managing global environmental issues under the mandate of the United Nations. Since 1992, there has been a framework to engage civil societies in the UN system and environmental governance, which is called Major Groups. They are children and youth, w

Abstract:

This study examines the conference interpreting market in the Republic of the Congo, focusing on its organizational structure, key stakeholders, and the challenges faced by interpreters. Data was collected through questionnaires administered to 25 interpreters and 2 clients, analysed within the framework of the stakeholders’ theory and Holly Mikkelson's control theory.The findings indicate a poorly organized market with limited professional associations, inconsistent pay rates, and a lack of strong interpreter networks. Male interpreters with natural language skills dominate the field. F

Abstract:

AbstractIn 1991 in the Republic of Congo, a sovereign national conference in Brazzaville inaugurated a peaceful transition from socialist one‐party government to multi‐party democracy. The pluralization of public voices in the newly liberalized country – in religious movements, political parties and independent presses – expressed new conditions of understanding about the nation and its affairs. At the same time, local networks and categories of perception inflected geopolitical pressures from foreign powers into quasi‐ethnic divisions in competition for power through government representation

Abstract The article presents a case of interpretation as a political activity during the Cold War. In the 1980s and 1990s, a grassroots citizen diplomacy movement was initiated by the Californian Esalen Institute, the center of the American Human Potential Movement. In and around its Soviet-American exchange program, numerous individuals, NGOs and organizations established personal relationships and professional exchange with citizens of the two super powers and travelled in both directions. Interpreters had a complex and crucial role in this exchange which was different from both the profess

Summary During the armed conflicts of decolonisation in Korea, Vietnam and the Congo in the 1950 s and 1960 s, both German states joined the competition between East and West by sending medical teams to conduct aid work. West German numerical advantages in funds and available staff were countered by East German governmental command of human resources and productive capacities such as the pharmaceutical industry. As a result, the German Democratic Republic (GDR) preferred shorter stays and the supply of large amounts of equipment and materials whereas the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG) inste

AbstractIt is not widely appreciated that the recent six year conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo was the deadliest war since World War II. An estimated 3.8 million people, mostly civilians, lost their lives as a result of the conflict. The West must accept a large degree of responsibility for this tragedy as the war was fuelled to a great extent by western multinationals. These companies either directly or indirectly purchased or exploited the natural resources under the control of the various armed groups. Unscrupulous corporations can engage in this behaviour with impunity in weak

This article proposes patriotism as a strategic lever for strengthening democracy and restoring the legitimacy of the state in a context of citizen mistrust and social fragmentation. The article distinguishes civic patriotism, based on attachment to the nation and republican values, from exclusive nationalism. This civic patriotism encourages respect for the law, civic commitment and the promotion of the general interest, thus becoming a driving force for social cohesion and collective responsibility.
