Zulu ArtWorld AFRICA -Bangwa "The Bangwa occupy a mountainous and part forested countryside west of the Bamileke in south-eastern Cameroon, near the headwaters of the Cross River. They comprise nine chiefdoms. People live in separate family compounds, sometimes with large meeting houses where visitors may be received." - From University of Durham - http://artworld.uea.ac.uk/teaching_modules/africa/cultural_groups_by_country/bangwa/welcome.html Bangwa People "Authority among the Bangwa was traditionally instituted as part of the Bamileke political complex. Like most of the western Grasslands people, Babanki political authority is vested in a village chief, who is supported by a council of elders, and is called Fon."

Zulu Abang Dance: Radiance from the River and Efik Ideal of Femininity "To dance is human, and humanity expresses itself in dance. Dancing interweaves with many aspects of life, such as art, communication, belief systems, social relations and political dynamics. Interwoven in Abang dances are three modalities: space, rhythm, and unity. Each of these modalities conveys its own distinct message(s) but interacts with each other to produce a specific form of dance as an expression and communicative art." - From Africa Resource Center - http://www.ijele.com/ijele/vol1.1/onyile.html Acacia Initiative: International Development Research Centre (IDRC) Centre de recherches pour le développement international (CRDI) (3.1) "The Acacia Initiative: Communities and the Information Society in Africa Program Initiative is an international program to empower sub-Saharan communities with the ability to apply information and communication technologies (ICTs) to their own social and economic development." - From International Development Research Centre - Africa Online: Kids Only A great kids site about Africa.

Subscribe GMI Ministry Impact EVANGELISTS IN THE central African country of Cameroon can now clearly see their progress in reaching their countrymen with the good news of Jesus Christ. Mission BINAM, an indigenous ministry dedicated to reaching the largely animistic peoples of western Cameroon, hopes to plant a church within each of the 129 Bamileke villages. They recently sent two of their leaders, Rev. Alain Bouwa and Harold Wafo, to participate in GMIs Visiting Trainee program. In our offices, working side by side with GMI mission cartographers, they learned how to systematically map the whole Bamileke area, consisting of 14 different ethno-linguistic groups. They developed detailed maps showing the villages, principal towns, and language areas of western Cameroon. In addition, they created large wall maps displaying where they are working, and where the greatest spiritual needs are.

Extractions: Geography of Cameroon One of the major geographical features of Cameroon is Mount Cameroon, upon which CHAMEG is located. This mountain is the highest point in Cameroon and is actually a still active volcano. Another of the major geological features are the huge rivers that wind through much of Cameroon: the Logone, the Sanaga, the Nyong, and the Benoue. The peoples of Cameroon rely heavily upon these rivers for their livelihood. The capital of Cameroon is Yaounde, which began as a German trading station. Another important city is Douala, which actually existed before colonialism as a small native settlement. Both of these cities' creations and/or developments can be traced to the colonialism that forged the country's history, as is the case with all the cities in Cameroon. View of the city of Yaounde History of Cameroon Pre-Colonial Era In the 17th century, cassava (a tuber/root) was introduced into the area, seriously altering women's lives ever since. Since it was considered a woman's role to grow and process the cassava, this lead to a shift in labor that seriously disadvantaged women. In the 19th century, Fulani Muslims from the north invaded what would be Cameroon. There were two consequences of this invasion for women: on one hand, women indigenous to the invaded regions resisted this invasion mainly because the Fulani's cattle were damaging their crops. Secondly, since this resistance was not successful, and because the Fulani were Muslim, a religion known for its seclusion of women and their subordination to their husbands, those women in the northern region of the country who were converted to the religion saw their circumstances change drastically.

Extractions: 7.1 Use of forest products The forest is perceived as, and is in reality, a vast reservoir of all kinds of vital foodstuffs and raw materials as well as other socially and culturally important substances. It is also perceived as "a profane inanimate entity, to be plundered so as to satisfy gross economic demands."( ) Fuel wood and bush meat are the forest products most extensively used by city dwellers throughout central Africa on a regular basis for both economic and cultural reasons. While both are renewable resources in theory, insufficient effort is made to conserve them and even less to renew them: they are accordingly disappearing at an alarming rate. These reasons, combined with the desire to formulate recommendations on how to help diminish their depletion, have consequently motivated the specific focus of our research. The other forest products which are also used daily, again for economic and cultural purposes, were not investigated in significant detail because their use does not seriously threaten the forest - at least in the immediate future. (The cities which are the greatest consumers of fuelwood and bush meat head the next two sections.) 7.1.1 Fuelwood
