Extractions: "Indigenous people" is a concept we now often encounter in discussions on human rights, democracy, political development and civil society. This has followed from the continuing and deepening crisis if human suffering on a larger scale I the political, social, economic and cultural field as well as human rights abuses. At the same time, there have been political responses to colonial and post colonial pressures and political alienation of indigenous peoples. In many parts of Africa people are looking for new perceptions and new solutions to old problems and difficulties and taking part in the global discussion on indigenous rights has become one of the strategies in the struggle for a just development. This brief overview on indigenous peoples of Kenya is supposed to serve as a guideline in defining, planning and prioritizing assistance to the poor, marginalised indigenous peoples of Kenya. It was requested as a further elaboration of MS's development assistance to Kenya. It begins by recalling definitions used to identify indigenous peoples in the world and in Africa, then it assesses the "indigenousness" of those groups of people who have been identified as indigenous in Kenya and their struggle for recognition and demands for fairness and justice. There is also a brief discussion on the relevance of MS's policy on indigenous peoples and a few points on strategies to be followed by potential donors in order to alleviate the suffering of indigenous peoples in the region.

Extractions: No general, universal agreement defines indigenous peoples. This observation is stated in many forms, in relevant UN commissions and working groups, as well as in the World Bank's Operational Directive on Indigenous Peoples. Most countries currently seeking to address indigenous issues do so within the context of their national constitution, and according to their reading of history, rather than as an issue of universal character. In UN-sponsored meetings, representatives of indigenous peoples and many governments have expressed the view that a definition of the concept of indigenous peoples is not necessary at the intenational level, although such definitions may be advisable and necessary at the national level. In addition, indigenous peoples have questioned the need for a universal definition of the concept of "indigenous peoples:" "peoples"

Extractions: Africa is a continent that seemingly defies analysis. Its prospects for the new millennium are grim. The least-developed region in the Third World while all other regions have made some, albeit difficult progress, sub-Saharan Africa continues to be mired in crushing debt, poverty, squalor and social destitution. Economic success stories in Africa are pitifully few. War, disease, state terrorism and wanton carnage have devastated a continent that once had hope and continue to sap the vitality of its resilient people. (Senseless wars) have disrupted economic activity especially agriculture uprooted people, and sent refugees streaming across borders. Africa's refugee population has risen sharply in recent years. These wars have nothing to do with Western colonialism or imperialism. Nor do they have anything to do with artificial colonial borders or ancient tribal rivalries. These wars are over one thing POWER: Power to allocate resources to oneself, cronies and tribesmen; power to crush one's enemies; and power to perpetuate oneself in office. Rebel soldiers do not seek to redraw colonial boundaries; they head straight to the capital city the seat of POWER. Nor is ethnic rivalry the determining factor in Africa's wars. Somalia is the most ethnically homogeous country in Africa. Yet it imploded. With the exception of the 1998-2000 Ethiopian-Eritrea war, virtually all of Africa's wars have been intra-state in origin and the basic cause of these wars have been the "politics of exclusion."

In turn, traditional farming methods are often lost together with, inter-generational knowledge, and specialized skills, practices and customs. UNEP A total of 26 armed conflicts erupted in Africa between 1963 and 1998, affecting 474 million people in Africa, or 61 per cent of the population. Some 79 per cent of people were affected in Eastern Africa; 73 per cent in Central Africa; 64 per cent in Western Africa; 51 per cent in Northern Africa; and 29 per cent in Southern Africa (ECA 2001). Another impact of armed conflict is the creation of refugees. In 2001 in Central Africa and the Horn of Africa, for example, a total of about 9.6 million people were either refugees or internally displaced as a result of armed conflict (US Committee for Refugees 2001). Refugee settlements often result in environmental degradation which, in turn, increase human vulnerability, limiting livelihood options and exposing the refugees to health risks. Environmental change due to environmental stress has an indirect impact on the outbreak of conflict. Environmental stressincluding deforestation, land degradation and scarce supply of freshwateralone, and in combination with high population density, increases the risk of low-level conflict.
Toward A New Country In East Africa why in Europe and North America people are so African nation of particular interest, the somali nation nation that returned to its indigenous political tradition http://libertariannation.org/a/f42n1.html
Extractions: now published by the Libertarian Nation Foundation Toward a New Country in East Africa for the New Country Foundation (to table of contents of archives) Editor's Note: The author, who is presently working with New Country Foundation members to organize a libertarian new country project in Africa, asked that his name be withheld. If you would like further information about this project, please contact NCF at the address listed on the masthead. Somewhere in East Africa, there is a green valley that is often referred to as "no-man's-land." It received this name for two reasons. First, almost nobody was living there during the past two centuries. Second, for a long time the surrounding states, those of Ethiopia, British Somaliland and French Somaliland, showed little interest in this valley. It was only in 1954 that this no-man's-land, up till then a white spot on the political map of the United Nations, received its color. It was then that the UN divided this valley among two sovereigns, the larger part going to Ethiopia; the smaller part to British Somaliland. When I visited this beautiful valley for the first time, in 1992, I instantly saw its potential as an independent country. Like Galt's Gulch, it is surrounded by mountains, which gives it a sort of privacy. Also, it has a pleasant, temperate climate due to its location at 1700 meters altitude. Its size, equal to that of Luxembourg, is three times larger than Hong Kong. With modern cultivating techniques it can easily feed a million people. My big question was, why there were no villages in this valley. The answer came soon. The British forbade settlement, fearing that its trees would be cut in order to permit agriculture. They reserved the valley for nomads.
