A la desertificación y la deforestación que empuja a millones de personas a abandonar sus hogares en África, se añade ahora otro fenómeno que se ha denominado 'colonialismo verde', esto es la explotación de materiales como el litio o el cobalto, necesarios para fabricar baterías eléctricas. "Esta extracción no respeta los derechos humanos", denuncia la jurista franco gabonesa, Chancia Ivala-Plaine.  Con motivo de la Cop29, Conferencia sobre el Clima de la ONU, que se celebra en estos momentos en Baku, Azerbaiyán, ponemos el foco en África y las amenazas y retos del continente ante el cambio climático y también ante la explotación de los recursos naturales necesarios para llevar a cabo una transición ecológica, en la mayoría de las ocasiones en el Norte. Esto es lo que está provocando un fenómeno acuñado como 'colonialismo verde'. Para la jurista Chancia Ivala-Plaine estamos ante una contradicción. "La búsqueda de soluciones más ecológicas lleva a la explotación de los pueblos del sur porque no hay mecanismos para proteger a los trabajadores", afirma la también presidenta de la asociación ‘Juventud africana por el Medio Ambiente'.Una situación que nos evoca la explotación de adultos y menores en las minas de diamantes de países como Namibia, Sierra Leona o Zimbabue, justamente en este último país es donde se concentran las mayores reservas de litio en el mundo, necesario para la fabricación de baterías, su extracción ha provocado el desalojo de poblaciones autóctonas, al igual que en República Democrática del Congo, donde se extrae cobalto y cobre, también imprescindibles para las baterías eléctricas. El 'colonialismo verde' y las expulsiones masivas de pobladores "El término 'colonialismo verde' es del profesor Guillaume Blanc (historiador de Medio Ambiente y África contemporánea) y se manifiesta por la explotación extractiva y excesiva de los recursos naturales que no respeta los derechos de los pueblos que viven en los alrededores de las minas", explica Chancia Ivala-Plaine. Existen otros fenómenos que están provocando la expulsión de la población local como es la creación de zonas protegidas o de reservas de animales. Es el caso de los masái en Tanzania, decenas de miles de personas se vieron obligadas a dejar sus hogares situados en el Área de Conservación de Ngorongoro."El derecho internacional reconoce el derecho de las poblaciones indígenas, tenemos el ejemplo de Kenia, donde la Corte Africana de Derechos Humanos y de los Pueblos (con sede en Arusha, Tanzania) reconoció el derecho de la población autóctona, es una decisión muy importante, sin embargo hay un problema en la implementación de la ley porque a los gobiernos africanos lo que les interesa es más la inversión de las empresas", denuncia. Una muralla verde para frenar el avance del desierto La explotación de recursos naturales para la transición ecológica y el establecimiento de reservas y parques naturales se agregan a problemas más antiguos como la deforestación y la desertificación que afectan a millones de personas que se ven obligadas a emigrar por el hambre. En la actualidad existe un proyecto para lugar contra la extensión del desierto del Sahel hacia el sur, se trata de la muralla verde, en la que Senegal está jugando un papel importante. Se trata de plantar árboles para frenar la expansión del desierto", afirma Ivala-Plaine. Pero no será suficiente. La construcción de infraestructuras, tan necesarias para modernizar las urbes, está también impactando en los bosques. La ley, un arma eficaz para luchar contra las consecuencias del cambio climático A pesar de que muchos gobiernos africanos hacen oídos sordos a las demandas de los ciudadanos para proteger sus derechos, la jurista estima que el derecho es un arma eficaz. "Puede imponer obligaciones vinculantes a gobiernos y empresas para proteger a poblaciones más vulnerables que enfrentan los efectos del cambio climático", sostiene. El derecho también es importante porque crea jurisprudencia en un contexto donde las grandes potencias se han desentendido de la reciente Cop de Baku, en Azerbaiyán, donde han estado ausentes países como China, que tiene una gran influencia creciente en el continente africano.

Maasai communities have acted as the ancestral guardians of the Great Rift Valley in East Africa for centuries. Today, they are under attack as the Tanzanian government wages a brutal campaign to forcibly evict them from the Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) to boost tourism revenues. Despite mounting pressures to force them from their homes, Maasai have recently waged a historic protest mobilization in defense of their rights to land and life. On today's episode we speak with Joseph Oleshangay, a Maasai human rights lawyer on the frontlines of this struggle. Based in Arusha and working with the Legal and Human Rights Centre, Joseph was the recipient of the 2023 Weimar Human Rights Prize for his ongoing efforts to protect the rights of the Maasai people in Ngorongoro and Loliondo. As one of the leading voices working to protect Maasai land rights, he has faced retaliation and surveillance from the Tanzanian government. We are extremely grateful to have him as our guest today and recognize his courage for continuing to speak out on behalf of impacted Maasai communities.  Tune in to learn more about the crippling livelihood restrictions these Indigenous communities face as the government prioritizes the interests of safari tourists over their well being. We also discuss the complicity of international conservation NGOs and donor governments and how listeners can support their struggle.  Learn more: https://www.oaklandinstitute.org/country/tanzania

Nous allons remonter le temps pour vous raconter comment les Occidentaux ont brutalement expulsé des cultivateurs de leurs terres pour préserver une nature, soi-disant vierge et sauvage en Afrique. C'est l'objectif du « projet spécial africain » lancé en 1961 à Arusha en Tanzanie sur lequel l'historien Guillaume Blanc, notre invité, a travaillé. Comment, pendant la fin de la colonisation et au lendemain des indépendances, les Occidentaux ont brutalement expulsé des cultivateurs de leurs terres pour préserver une nature soi-disant vierge et sauvage en Afrique. C'était l'objectif du « Projet spécial africain » imaginé en 1961 à Arusha en Tanzanie par des experts de la conservation avec la complicité d'organisations internationales comme l'Unesco, l'UICN (Union internationale pour la protection de la nature) et quelques dirigeants africains. Comment financer tout cela ? En créant une banque, et ce sera la naissance du WWF, le World wildlife fund, ce qui se traduit par le fonds mondial pour la nature, devenu aujourd'hui l'une des plus importantes organisations mondiales de défense de l'environnement.Cette histoire documentée et retracée par l'historien Guillaume Blanc dans son dernier livre La nature des hommes, une mission écologique pour « sauver » l'Afrique, est non seulement passionnante à lire, mais surtout elle éclaire la manière dont les Occidentaux se sont acharnés pendant des décennies à surprotéger certaines zones du continent pour mieux en exploiter d'autres, pour défendre leur vision et leurs intérêts, mais à aucun moment au profit des populations locales...

Set in Colonial Northern Nigeria, this book confronts a paradox: the state insisted on its separation from religion even as it governed its multireligious population through what remained of the precolonial caliphate. Entangled Domains: Empire, Law and Religion in Northern Nigeria (Cambridge UP, 2023) grapples with this history to offer a provocative account of secularism as a contested yet contingent mode of governing religion and religious difference. Drawing on detailed archival research, Rabiat Akande vividly illustrates constitutional struggles triggered by the colonial state's governance of religion and interrogates the legacy of that governance agenda in the postcolonial state. This book is a novel commentary on the dynamic interplay between law, faith, identity, and power in the context of the modern state's emergence from colonial processes.

About Alex: Alex Lawrence is currently the Executive Director for Advancement Leadership Lab. Her role focuses on ALL's growth strategy, alumni experience, and overseeing our board of directors and stakeholder partnerships. Alex is no stranger to the leadership lab as she developed the pilot curriculum in 2018, and is thrilled to be back in this role as the organization continues to expand its impact. Her career has challenged her to consistently act like a start-up operator: developing people and structuring culturally competent organizations from the ground up.Alex started her career as an HR consultant for SPX, an international manufacturing company. She led projects in recruiting and mergers and acquisitions in Charlotte, NC and Battle Creek, MI, talent and organizational development in Dusseldorf, Germany, and labor negotiations and employee relations in Delavan, WI and Ocala, FL. This HR work led to a passion for building the talent pipeline and she transitioned to Red Ventures, a marketing acquisition company in Charlotte, NC. Alex led college recruitment strategy and execution at target universities to hire 50 analyst and web developer associates a year. She handled new associate onboarding and career trajectory plans, as well as recruited for HR, finance, and computer engineering roles at RV. Recruiting college talent led Alex back into the classroom at The Ohio State University. During graduate school, Alex held a role in Student Life Advancement, focusing on student philanthropy and leadership development. She stayed at the university post-graduation working as Project Manager for the President and CEO of the Ohio State Alumni Association. In this role, Alex handled administrative duties and projects for the CEO, while acting as a communications partner for department leaders across the alumni association and Advancement. Her family later took her to Phoenix, AZ where Alex worked for an international access-to-education non-profit as the Director of Communications and Marketing, traveling between the U.S. and Arusha, Tanzania. As mentioned above, she then had the opportunity to work from Phoenix to develop the inaugural curriculum for the Advancement Leadership Lab in 2018, and launch the pilot program across 10 universities.In 2019, Alex had the opportunity to return to Columbus, leading organizational operations as Chief of Staff for the Ohio State Alumni Association and stayed on as an advisor for the Advancement Leadership Lab. Transitioning to the Advancement Leadership Lab over the last year as its own 501c3 has been an exciting opportunity, combining Alex's experience in human resources, leadership development, and business operations to build the foundation for an impactful and sustainable organization.Alex has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Human Services and Counseling Psychology from Elon University and a Master of Arts degree in Higher Education Administration from The Ohio State University. She lives in Columbus, OH with her husband, Danny, and puppy son, Larry. Alex enjoys her side gigs of interior design clients and teaching at CorePower Yoga.About Michael: A graduate of the University of California, San Diego, Mike Eicher began his career in higher education at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he rose from associate director of development in the School of Medicine to deputy director and director, and from there to vice provost for medical science development, then assistant and associate vice chancellor. Under his leadership as vice chancellor, Campaign UCLA, a 10-year effort completed in 2005, raised $3.05 billion. Prior to joining Ohio State, Mike served for six years as senior vice president for external affairs and development at Johns Hopkins University, where he led the Johns Hopkins: Knowledge for the World Campaign. That effort focused on student aid and faculty support, construction of clinical buildings at the medical campus and important renovation projects. It closed in 2008 with commitments of more than $3.7 billion. Mike returned to a public university because he believes in its noble mission and great power. He joined Ohio State in fall 2012 as senior vice president for Advancement and president of The Ohio State University Foundation. Building on his goal to inspire people to choose Ohio State – for their education, medical care, research support, entertainment and more – he has set out to share the university's most compelling stories, engage more than half a million alumni, and expand private philanthropy to support Ohio State's core priorities. Under Mike's direction, Ohio State streamlined and integrated its communications and marketing, alumni relations and fundraising teams. He led the But for Ohio State Campaign, which raised over $3 billion from more than 750,000 donors and became the university's most successful fundraising effort ever. Mike built upon that momentum and, along with his team, planned and launched Time and Change: The Ohio State Campaign in fall 2019. While its financial goal is the largest in Ohio State's history — $4.5 billion focused on student success; discovery; and healthy, vibrant communities — what truly sets this campaign apart from all others is its goal to engage 1 million supporters, which is unprecedented in higher education. Mike is focused on organizational growth, health, and wellness, which led to Advancement's establishment of a chief diversity officer position and the Advancement Inclusion Council. Both serve as resources by providing personal and professional development opportunities for staff. Mike's commitment to putting people first has been instrumental in the transformation of Advancement during his tenure. He lives in Columbus with his wife, Inez, and travels frequently. They have two grown children: Brandon Eicher (Kate) and Christine Peterson (Shane). They also have three young granddaughters who they love to spend time with.

It's Monday, March 4th, A.D. 2024.  This is The Worldview heard at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus.  (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus 11 YWAM missionaries killed in Tanzania bus accident On February 24th, 11 missionaries with Youth With A Mission died in a tragic traffic accident near Arusha, Tanzania, reported The Christian Post. Darlene Cunningham, who founded YWAM with her husband, Loren, who passed away from cancer in 2023, said, “I am personally reeling from the weight of this news, as I knew and loved many of these individuals personally. But I am leaning into the character of God for what I know to be true about who He is! “Participants in the ‘Executive Masters in Leadership' course, based at YWAM Arusha, Tanzania, took a field trip in two buses to Maasai land, where they observed our thriving community development program. “On the return trip to Arusha, a truck, that had lost its brakes, smashed into our second bus, literally crushing it from top to bottom. Eleven of our beloved friends were killed and eight others are severely wounded, battling for their lives. We have not seen a tragedy of this magnitude in all of YWAM's history and we are all devastated.” Psalm 34:18 says, “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” Survivors of Hamas' attack sue crypto firm for funding terror group Jewish survivors of the October 7th attack by Hamas, the Islamic terrorist group, as well as the loved ones of those still being held hostage in the Gaza Strip, are alleging the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange has allowed the terror group to raise funds using its platform, reports Fox Business. A lawsuit against Binance, filed by the National Jewish Advocacy Center in the U.S. Middle District Court of Alabama, states the crypto exchange has allowed Hamas to raise funds without any consequences. Hamas terrorists killed 1,200 people, injured 6,900 others, and kidnapped 239 people. The lawsuit states, "For such an attack to be successful or even contemplated, significant funding was necessary. Defendants' contributions to the funding of this attack cannot be overstated." Between January 2018 and May 2022, Binance facilitated nearly $900 million in transactions between customers in the United States and Iran, a violation of U.S. sanctions. Iran is known to finance terrorist groups, such as the Lebanon-based Hezzbollah.  Biden and Trump went to southern border last Thursday Last Thursday, President Joe Biden went to the border at Brownsville, Texas where few illegal immigrants cross the border, ranked the 29th-most trafficked town by illegal border-crossers, according to data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, reports Fox News. In an attempt to confuse the voters who are upset with Biden for allowing 8 million illegals enter America since he's been in office, the president called for Donald Trump and Republicans to support his bogus border security bill. BIDEN: “I understand my predecessor is in Eagle Pass, [Texas] today. So, here's what I would say to Mr. Trump. Instead of telling members of Congress to block this legislation, join me in telling the Congress to pass this bipartisan border security bill. We can do it together. You know, and I know it's the toughest, most efficient, most effective border security bill this country has ever seen. So, instead of playing politics with the issue, why don't we just get together and get it done?” Needless to say, Biden was the one playing politics. When Donald Trump appeared at Eagle Pass, Texas last Thursday, one of the most trafficked towns on the southern border with Mexico, where hundreds of thousands have illegally crossed, he said this. TRUMP: “Now, the United States is being overrun by the Biden migrant crime. It's a new form of vicious violation to our country. It's migrant crime. We call it Biden migrant crime. Every time you hear the term ‘migrant crime,' you know where that comes from, allowing millions and millions of people to come in.” Possible foreign terrorists coming across southern border In 2022 and 2023, take a listen to the number of foreign nationals who have been found crossing our southern border illegally. According to data leaked to Fox News by Customs and Border Protection, there have been 26,113 Chinese, 12,604 Russians, 6,386 Afghans, 3,153 Egyptians, 659 Iranians, and 538 Syrians. Appearing on the Fox News Channel with Sean Hannity, former President Trump concluded that these foreign nationals, from countries hostile to America, are up to no good. TRUMP: “So, you have 28,000 from China, all fighting age. You don't see women and you don't see men much older than that. It's from 18 to 25, 26 years old. There's something going on. And they're coming from Yemen that we're bombing. They're coming from prisons in the Congo, [Africa]. These are rough people that are coming in.” HANNITY: “Why would they make that long journey to our southern border? And my fear is that we have in this country, because these illegals are not vetted, I fear that terrorist cells have set up in this country that will plot, plan, scheme the next 9/11 or worse. I pray to God, as I said, I'm wrong. I don't think I'm wrong, Mr. President.” Heroic garbageman saves man, woman and dog from burning home And finally, on February 27th, when two garbage men in Tipton, England saw fires ripping through a small brick townhome, they sprung into action and rescued a man, woman, and their dog, reports Good News Network. Steve Whitehouse said, “I saw a young woman screaming from the balcony and all I could think was that I needed to get to her as quickly as possible.” Whitehouse climbed up to a first-floor balcony three times to rescue the trio from the flames. He first carried the woman down, but when he turned back to help the young man, he found he was shouting to his dog, still inside. Bundling the dog in a blanket, Whitehouse climbed down and told the owner to throw the dog to him. After catching him, the garbageman returned up to the balcony to help the man. Meanwhile, the other garbage man, Kevin Marriott, went door to door shouting for people to get clear of the connected townhomes. Senior firefighter Chris Green told the BBC, “I have no doubt that without Steve's incredible bravery the outcome could have been very different. I have no idea how he managed to do what he did. It was heroic. The fire and smoke were coming out of the property's rear door like a blow torch.” In John 15:13, Jesus said, “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.” In this case, garbage man Steve Whitehouse was willing to lay down his life for strangers.

Archbishop Isaac Amani, bishop of the Diocese of Arusha in Tanzania, relates how the African continent has successfully resisted pressure from western nations to accept the tyrannical LGBT agenda. Archbishop Amani contends that Africa's unique resilience to the LGBT agenda stems from the peoples' grassroots adherence to traditional family values and shared Christian faith. Small Christian communities enjoy the support from their local African bishops, empowering the faithful even more fully to adhere to traditional Catholic teaching. John-Henry Westen's exclusive interview with Archbishop Amani is a powerful witness to the time-tested truths of the Gospel — and shows the African peoples' resistance to the tyrannical LGBT agenda sweeping across the world.HELP US FIGHT THE LIES OF THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA AND SPREAD THE TRUTH AROUND THE WORLD: https://give.lifesitenews.com LOVE LIFESITE?

The folks at Gladioloa Adventure in Arusha thought Elia would be a good guide to show us around northern Tanzania for 9 days. They were right. Raised by his Maasai grandfather, Elia has a deep understanding of animal behavior, not only spotting lions, leopards, and cheetahs at a distance, but anticipating where they would move so we could position ourselves and wait for them to wander by. His knowledge of the animals and how best to interact/photograph them, combined with his insights into the geology, cultures, and history of the region enriched our experience more than I can say.
