The underlying principle is that modalities and mechanisms of implementation of a culture of peace or conflict resolution are to be reinforced at three levels: decision-makers, intellectuals, grassroots organizations and communities. CPN's purpose is threefold: To develop a common understanding and vision for the culture of peace networks in the Horn of Africa and the Great Lakes Region. To promote mutually empowering relationships and strategies for action. To provide an information databank, act as an information clearing house for the network and to develop a directory and website. The first CPN meeting took place in Nairobi on 12 April 1999 and comprised 20 local NGOs involved in various activities in Kenya ranging from conflict resolution to peace education, the promotion of inter-religious dialogue and gender issues.

IRSA History The Establishment of the International Rural Sociology Association: A Brief Account Glenn V. Fuguitt and Alvin L. Bertrand January 25, 1999 The Committee for International Cooperation in Rural Sociology wasted no time in planning an international congress, and it was decided to hold a congress in 1964. An invitation from M. Cepede to meet in Dijon, France was accepted and he was put in charge of making the arrangements for the congress. At the time of the Dijon congress plans were made for a second congress. E. W. Hofstee's invitation to hold the congress in Enschede, The Netherlands in 1968 was accepted and he was given the responsibility for planning and making the arrangements. The Committee for International Cooperation in Rural Sociology provided the leadership for program planning. The RSS representation on the Committee was changed in 1964, when President Lee Coleman appointed Al Bertrand, Paul Jehlik, and Harry Schwarzweller to replace the original RSS appointees. During the time of the second world congress tentative plans were made for a third world congress. An invitation to host the congress was extended by the U. S. delegation. Members of the committee voted to accept the invitation and to elect Al Bertrand chair of the committee. Subsequently, the RSS voted to hold the third congress in Baton Rouge, Louisiana with Al Bertrand in charge of local arrangements. Following the 1972 third world congress, the Committee for Cooperation ceased to exist, and planning responsibility for the fourth world congress was assumed by the Preparatory Committee, plus Al Bertrand, who served as a liaison from the previous Committee for Cooperation. The fourth congress was held in Torun, Poland, in August 1976.

DRAFT Southeastern Regional Seminar in African Studies A Brief History 15 January 1999 JOSEPH C. MILLER University of Virginia South Asianists had earlier achieved a considerable degree of organization in the region, largely through the outreach activities of the National Defense Education Act Title VI center at the University of Virginia, led by historian Professor Walter Hauser. There was also a Southern Atlantic States Association for Asian and African Studies (SASAAAS), oriented more toward teaching and public outreach than the SSRC Seminar program, but nonetheless illustrative of the possibilities of a regional organization in the enthusiastic participation it enjoyed. There was also interest in forming a less structured Southern Association of Africanists in the region, led by Ann Dunbar and others in central North Carolina, and focused on teaching outreach. Ann Dunbar organized the last meeting of the Seminar's first year at the University of North Carolina on April 20, 1974, focused on discussion of Rodney's How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, with copies provided to all members. Akpan (South Carolina State College) and Nyang presented papers, with comments by Sagay and Thornton. (See report to SSRC, Appendix IId.) Expenses totaled $308.99. On the strength of the benefits that all participants felt they had gained from the Seminar's first year, and indications of continued sponsorship from several institutions in the region, the group resolved to apply for an extension of the Seminar's SSRC funding. All the papers from the year were filed with the Library of Congress through the chief its Exchange and Grant Division (Nathan R. Einhorn).

Nets for sale at a market in Mali What is NetMark? NetMark Plus is an eight-year, $65.4 million dollar project designed to reduce the impact of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa through the increased use and sustainable supply of insecticide treated mosquito nets (ITNs), and insecticide treatments kits for nets, through partnership and joint investment with a wide range of international and local commercial partners. Core partners on NetMark include the Malaria Consortium, UK; Exp. Momentum (formerly Group Africa) and FCB Advertising. Commercial partners include BASF, Bayer AG, Siamdutch Mosquito Netting Company, A-Z Textiles and Vestergaard Frandsen. NetMark roadshow in Senegal Why ITNs? ITNs are the most effective method for the prevention of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa where over 2 million people die every year as a result of the disease, the majority of its victims being pregnant women and children under five years of age. ITNs have been shown to decrease severe malaria by 45%, reduce premature births by 42% and cut all-cause child mortality by 17%-63%.

Annual Report Annual Report Harare, regional delegation (Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe) Promotion of humanitarian law In Botswana, the ICRC and the Federation carried out a joint mission to the National Society to help it resume its activities. In Malawi, the situation remained relatively calm during the year, despite some tension within the governing coalition which led to the withdrawal of one of the constituent parties, depriving the President's party of its parliamentary majority. The ICRC supervised the construction of a hospital ward at Zomba prison to provide medical care for the detainees and completed the installation of new kitchens in the country's two largest prisons. Since the completion in 1995 [12] of its programme of visits to Malawi's prisons to examine the material and psychological conditions of detention, the ICRC had sought to ensure, by drawing attention to their situation, that its work in aid of the detainees there would be continued. These efforts bore fruit and in 1996 an organization, Penal Reform International, stepped in on their behalf. Cooperation with the National Societies In October 1996, Mozambique celebrated the second anniversary of peace and democracy in the country. Earlier in the year, in June, the ICRC had signed a three-year cooperation agreement with the National Society to help it to work in a peacetime environment. It was the first agreement of this kind to be concluded in the region.

About the ICRC ICRC Activities The ICRC worldwide Focus ... Annual Report Annual Report Harare, regional delegation (Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe) Introduction Botswana Malawi Mozambique ... Zimbabwe Introduction Peace prevailed in 1995 in the countries covered by the regional delegation in Harare. Relative stability in South Africa had a positive influence on the social and political climate in neighbouring countries. By the end of the year all six States had become party to the Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols. The regional delegation concentrated its efforts on dissemination activities and on strengthening emergency preparedness and response programmes with the National Societies. It completed its detention-related activities in Malawi. From 23 to 27January, the ICRC was invited to participate in a workshop in Harare on the subject of peace-keeping, organized by Zimbabwe and the United Kingdom and sponsored by the UN and the OAU. The workshop was attended by representatives from 17 African countries and gave the ICRC the opportunity to underline its role as a neutral and impartial humanitarian institution. In cooperation with the OAU, on 2 and 3 March the ICRC held a two-day international seminar on anti-personnel landmines and the 1980 UN Weapons Convention in Harare, which was attended by over 60 people, including government representatives from 13 southern African and Portuguese-speaking West African countries, national and international NGOs and representatives from National Red Cross Societies. It was one of three regional seminars organized by the ICRC to foster awareness in Africa of the problem of landmines and their devastating effects. The seminar also dealt with the problem of blinding laser weapons.

Annual Report Annual Report Harare, regional delegation (Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe) The countries covered by the Harare regional delegation enjoyed a period of relative political and social stability in 1997, although tensions surfaced at the end of the year in Zambia and Zimbabwe and living conditions remained difficult for many people in the region. In addition, the effects of the AIDS epidemic were very strongly felt in this part of southern Africa. Cooperation with the National Societies This year again, the ICRC concentrated on cooperation with the region's National Societies. By means of financial and material support, training courses and practical advice, the organization helped most of these Societies to become autonomous in their work aimed at restoring and maintaining family links. In most of the region's countries, in cooperation with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies, it also organized first-aid courses for volunteers and emergency-preparedness seminars for the senior staff of the National Societies. Moreover, the regional delegation helped the Societies to improve their media profile in their respective countries and facilitated contact between them. Seminars for the armed forces and the police In October the regional delegation had a favourable initial interview with the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of Botswana regarding the development of activities to promote humanitarian law in that country.

About the ICRC ICRC Activities The ICRC worldwide Focus ... Annual Report Annual Report Harare Regional delegation (Botswana, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe) The political situation in the countries covered by the Harare regional delegation remained relatively stable in 1998. Relations between Namibia and Botswana became strained, however, at the end of October because of a dispute over three small islands in the Caprivi Strip. Several hundred Namibian nationals subsequently fled to Botswana to escape a Namibian military operation being carried out in the Caprivi Strip against the bases of a secessionist movement. Although a number of the refugees had applied for political asylum in Botswana, some of them were temporarily imprisoned for entering the country illegally and for the unlawful possession of weapons. Once released, they rejoined the other Namibian refugees in a camp under the care of the Botswana Red Cross, UNHCR and the Lutheran church. At the end of November the ICRC, together with the Namibia Red Cross, carried out a survey in the Caprivi Strip and noted that although calm had been restored the population movements continued. The ongoing conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo also had direct repercussions on this part of southern Africa, with Namibia and Zimbabwe dispatching troops and military equipment to the country. The ICRC sent a memor-andum to the governments of these two States, reminding them of their obligation to comply with the Geneva Conventions.
