With the ‘Saffron Revolution’ of September 2007, Burma was catapulted into the centre of international attention. It was briefly headline news as people monitored the regime’s response and watched for hints of progress towards democracy and the restoration of rights. With little action on either front (and no visible resurgence of violence or protest), interest has since waned. The September protests, led by Buddhist monks, were sparked by a sudden increase in oil prices which had a serious impact on the already impoverished population. After a few days, the government violently ended what it called the “disruption of stability”.

Selon certains experts, quelque 45 000 bédouins ont recours aux camions-citernes ou aux animaux pour transporter de l’eau jusqu’à leur domicile. Ainsi, les centaines d’habitants du village de Tel Arad dépendent entièrement de l’eau qui leur est apportée par camions-citernes ou à dos d’animaux, ce qui revient encore plus cher pour des habitants qui n’ont déjà guère les moyens d’acheter de la viande régulièrement.

Over the past seventeen years, Somalia has been subject to ongoing civil wars, droughts and floods. Most observers agree that the crisis has never been as acute as it is today. The immense gap between the level of need and the corresponding humanitarian response is striking. Agencies struggle to provide food, water, health care, and other basic assistance to one million internally displaced people because of the worsening security crisis. Additionally, their own bureaucracies have not sufficiently adapted to the ground realities of this situation. Further complicating matters, the official Somali government propped up by the international community is viewed as illegitimate by its own people.

But many IDPs wishing to go home could slip through the cracks in the government’s return and intervention policies because they have settled in towns and cities. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), a half million people in the north have returned to their homes—mainly in the Lango and Teso regions—and at least another 1.2 million people remain in rural IDP camps, while an unknown number are still in Uganda’s urban centres, and quite possibly will be unable to return without assistance.

These projects are based on proposals finalized by the District Development Assemblies (DDAs). In order to speed the delivery of urgently-needed infrastructure projects, NABDP piloted a new approach to community led development whichhas become known as ‘The Kandahar Model’.

Although millions of people support violent jihad, very few are willing to do it. Those who do pursue violent jihad usually emerge in small groups of action-oriented friends. They come from the same neighborhood and interact during activities, such as soccer or paintball. Often they become camping and hiking companions who learn to take care of one another under trying conditions, which causes them to become even more deeply attached. Increasingly, they may first meet in a chat room where the anonymity of the World Wide Web paradoxically helps to forge intimate emotional ties among people who might otherwise physically intimidate or put off one another. They learn to live in a parallel universe ─ a conceptually closed community of comrade bound to a cause ─ which they mistake for the world.

Since 2004, an estimated 2 million southern Sudanese, either exiled in neighbouring countries or displaced within Sudan, have returned home, with more than 90% having done so spontaneously. Only a fraction has received adequate assistance. Failure to address reintegration and recovery needs generates frustration, has started to ignite communal tensions, and could ultimately jeopardize the success of the peace process itself.

An International Security System Advisory Team was founded at the beginning of February at the initiative of the Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of the Armed Forces, at a meeting in Geneva. The Conflict Prevention and Transformation section (COPRET) of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC) convened an international meeting to discuss guidelines for the evaluation of peacebuilding and conflict prevention activities. The Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) organized a workshop to review codes of behavior in the chocolate and textiles industries, possible human rights violations and risks to reputations.

It includes a discussion on the legal interpretations of the notion of torture, cruel or inhuman treatment and psychological torture, and analyses the context in which torture occurs and has occurred in the past. While looking at torture from the victims' and society's point of view, it also considers it from the perpetrator's perspective by trying to explain what brings a person to inflict torture. The issue further reflects the torture debate in the United States, particularly after the Abu Ghraib incident.
