Prikkels voor duurzaam waterbeheer van de Blauwe Nijl - promotie
Maandag 11 November 2013 15:45
De natuurlijke hulpbronnen in het stroomgebied van de Blauwe Nijl staan onder grote druk door niet-duurzame landbouwpraktijken. Het levensonderhoud van een meerderheid van de bevolking in Ethiopië is afhankelijk van deze hulpbronnen. Er lijkt dus een sterke correlatie te bestaan tussen armoede en het gebrek aan investeringen in duurzaam gebruik van natuurlijke hulpbronnen. Abonesh Tulu onderzocht en testte de institutioneel-economische randvoorwaarden waaraan moet worden voldaan om de externaliteiten van niet-duurzaam landgebruik in het stroomgebied van de Blauwe Nijl te internaliseren in huidige landbouwpraktijken.

ASC Africa Today Seminar: Kenya in 2013: the Elections, the Constitution and the Jubilee
Donderdag 14 November 2013 15:30
Charles Hornsby. The talk will examine the 2013 Kenyan general elections in the context of previous since polls, and will present (so far unpublished) comparative analysis of five of the six simultaneous elections, and what they tell us about the viability of the results and about the underlying basis of support for the Jubilee coalition (i.e. "why Uhuru won"). It will then look at events since April, focussing on devolution, the new "non-political" ministerial structure and the ICC. It will also examine how the results of the election remain contested and how those doubts are played back into the political sphere both domestically and via international opinion. Please register.
