Entretien avec Prof. Félix Ngana de l’Université de Bangui : Promouvoir la formation des Centrafricains en gouvernance foncière pour la réduction de la pauvreté

Dans cet entretien, Prof. Félix Ngana nous parle de la récente création de l’Unité de Formation et de Recherche (UFR) sur la Gouvernance Foncière et le Développement Local (GFDL) à l’Université de Bangui en République centrafricaine (RCA). À la suite de la mise en place d’un programme de Licence 3, des projets pour prolonger cette formation aux niveaux master et doctorat sont déjà en cours. Ces efforts arrivent à point nommé, alors que le pays s’est engagé dans un processus de décentralisation pour élire des maires et des gouverneurs, respectivement à la tête de conseils municipaux et régionaux.

Improving how we work for – and with – indigenous and local women in their communities

 

As a human rights organisation, gender justice is a fundamental principle of our work, and we have long been conscious of, and sought to address, the barriers to effective participation in decision-making by women, as well as the other human rights violations they may face on account of their gender.

Until now, the climate change debate in Central Africa has focused on the forest sector. CIFOR/Axel Fassio

The 2015 U.N. climate change conference was a historic moment in which the world agreed to limit global warming to 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels by curbing greenhouse gas emissions. Through the Paris Agreement, parties consented to a long-term pathway of climate-resilient development.

The artisanal mining sector in West and Central Africa is a rapidly expanding economic force employing millions of young people, often those who are the most vulnerable. Numerous ancillary informal economies are associated with the export of what are commonly known as “conflict minerals” such as diamonds, gold and coltan. Women grow crops and process food for the labor force of young men digging deep into the ground to pull out the ore and precious metals and stones.
