A is used for books where the topic has no relation to the region, including e.g. Arabic translations of European literature, and general works in human and social science (thus general works on Imperialism, put under A 970 However, if any identifiable part of the book, thus a chapter or a paper, concerns the region, classification is made on the basis of that part.

UNESCO CELEBRATES THE COMPLETION OF THE GENERAL HISTORY OF AFRICA IN TRIPOLI The complete edition of the General History of Africa - eight volumes of 800 to 1,000 pages each - is now available in three languages (Arabic, English and French). Parts have already been published in Spanish (five volumes of the complete edition), as well as four volumes in Portuguese, Chinese (also four), three in Japanese, two in Italian, Hawsa, Peulh, Korean (two volumes of the abridged version) and Kiswahili (one volume). During the meeting which will end this evening with a ceremony in the presence of the Libyan head of state, Colonel Moammar Gadhafi, and UNESCO Director-General Federico Mayor, the President of the Committee, A. Adu Boahen (Ghana), took stock of the publication and considered its potentials. "Despite the long delays, limited distribution and popularity, there is no doubt that from the scientific and academic viewpoints, the General History of Africa has been a phenomenal success and has had an extraordinary impact on higher education," declared A. Abu Boahen who added: "Although it is a scholarly work, it is also, in large measure, a faithful reflection of the way in which African authors view their own civilisation. While prepared in an international framework and drawing to the full on the present stock of scientific knowledge, it should also be a vitally important element in the recognition of the African heritage and should bring out the factors making for unity in the continent."

Travel Information Contact Addresses General Information Passport/Visa Money ... Maps Regions and Cities Home World Africa Niger History and Government History: Evidence of human settlement in the region now known as Niger goes back 6000 years, when what was then a highly fertile area supported a well-developed civilisation. In the thousand years up to the 19th century, power in the region was based on control of the great trans-Saharan trade routes. The Hausa Kingdom dominated the central area from the 13th century. This power decreased from the 18th century onwards as European traders used sea routes to make contact with West Africa. Colonised by the French in the 19th century, Niger was part of French West Africa until 1958. It achieved independence in 1960, and Hamani Diori was elected head of state. Diori was re-elected in 1965 and 1970, and his government seemed stable until severe drought from 1968 onwards brought about widespread civil unrest. In April 1974 there was a military coup under Lieutenant Colonel (later Major General) Seyni Kountché, followed by a series of further coup attempts when Kountché attempted to civilianise the Government. By 1983, however, the legislative Council of Ministers was entirely composed of civilians, under Prime Minister Oumarou Maname. Kountché died in 1987, to be replaced by his staunch ally Ali Seibou who consolidated his position during the late 1980s. Seibou began his tenure by trying to diversify Niger's economy away from its excessive dependence on uranium. On a political level, he was responsible for the creation of a new ruling party, the

Further development of metallurgy contributes to both material wealth and artistic production, and Arab reports depict the Ghana empire as the "Land of Gold." As well as stimulating trade, Islam Abu Bakr, military leader of the Almoravids , an Islamic Berber sect, recaptures Audaghost from the Ghana empire. Repeated Almoravid incursions, aimed at seizing control of the trans-Saharan gold trade , disrupt Ghana's dominance of the trade routes.

myTitle = "ssatitle" Brief history of IPGRI in sub-Saharan Africa The first IPGRI (then IBPGR-International Board for Plant Genetic Resources) office was established in West Africa in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso in 1981. It was later moved to Niamey, Niger in l987 and given responsibility for West and Central Africa, with a single scientist. The Nairobi office was established in 1982 with, at that time, responsibility for Eastern and Southern Africa. One scientist also originally ran it. At this time IPGRI (IBPGR) was a field programme of the FAO and the initial emphasis of the work in sub-Saharan Africa was assistance to national programme in procurement and development of conservation facilities; collection of germplasm through both local and international missions and training of national programme staff in plant genetic resources conservation and use mainly at the University of Birmingham through fellowships provided by UNEP and FAO . Because of the urgent need to rescue germplasm from a multiplicity of threats IBPGR (IPGRI) located one collector in the LAC region and was based at IRAZ in Burundi while another collector was based in Harare Zimbabwe to facilitate germplasm collection in the Southern Africa region. After an internal re-organisation and the establishment of IPGRI as an independent CGIAR institute, the sub-Saharan Africa Group was established, with a main office in Nairobi. The office had four staff members (2 IRS and 2 LRS) and a sub-office for West and Central Africa in Niamey with two staff members (1 IRS and 1 LRS, the latter on a special project). This latter office was relocated to Cotonou, Benin in June 1996.

About the ICRC ICRC Activities The ICRC worldwide Focus ... Annual Report Annual Report Abijan, regional delegation (Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea, Niger, Sierra Leone) IN 1994 THE ICRC: - provided 120,000 people affected by the conflict with around 7,500 tonnes of food; - provided logistic support for the Liberia relief operation, forwarding over 7,000 tonnes of food. Introduction The devastating armed conflict in Liberia had a strong influence on the surrounding region in 1994 and remained inextricably linked to the generalized violence and insecurity that prevailed in neighbouring Sierra Leone. The tribal make-up of the region, the shared supply routes through dense rain forests, a multitude of shifting political allegiances, a common economy based on precious stones and minerals, and an intricate mafia-style web of cross-border trade were the principal factors linking the whole region, especially the area from eastern Sierra Leone through the forest region of Guinea and into Liberia. The tragic result of this volatile situation was that the entire region was submerged in an atmosphere of extreme violence and terror. In the Sierra Leone/Guinea/Liberia triangle the civilian population lived in a permanent state of fear, the authorities held no sway whatsoever and international humanitarian organizations were unable to work. In August 1993 two ICRC nurses were brutally executed in south-eastern Sierra Leone. From that point on, and through the whole of 1994, relief activities remained suspended, as the danger of entering territory where no authority was apparently in control and where foreigners were seen as a threat was too great. This situation placed the ICRC in a dilemma, as there were hundreds of thousands of civilians in the area in dire need of protection and assistance.
