THE UN SECRETARY-GENERAL MESSAGE ON WORLD DOWN SYNDROME DAY

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The Universal Declaration of Human Rights recognizes the inherent dignity and equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family. Yet discrimination against persons with Down syndrome and their families exists on many levels. This hurts not only individuals who are directly affected, but whole societies. <br /><br />Persons with Down syndrome often face stigma and segregation, physical and psychological abuse, and lack of equal opportunities. A vicious circle of exclusion can begin early in life as many children with Down syndrome are denied access to mainstream education – or any education at all. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />In working life, stereotypes against persons with Down syndrome often mean they are denied vocational training opportunities and their right to work. In the political and public sphere, persons with Down syndrome and other persons with intellectual disabilities are often deprived of their right to vote and fully participate in the democratic process. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities reaffirms that such persons, including those with Down syndrome, are entitled to human rights on an equal basis with others. On 23 September, the General Assembly will convene a High-level Meeting on Disability and Development to ensure that the perspectives of persons with disabilities, including those with Down syndrome, are included in all future development plans. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Given the appropriate support and opportunity, all individuals living with Down syndrome can achieve their potential, realise their human rights on an equal basis with others and make an important contribution to society. We must therefore intensify our efforts to create conditions of empowerment that allow meaningful participation of persons with Down syndrome. Working together, we can help build an equitable, just and inclusive world that celebrates diversity, is free of discrimination and provides equal opportunities for all.</span> </div> </div>

MESSAGE ON THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF FORESTS

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Forests are vital for our well-being. They cover nearly a third of the globe and provide an invaluable variety of social, economic and environmental benefits. Three-fourths of freshwater comes from forested catchment areas. Forests stabilize slopes and prevent landslides; they protect coastal communities against tsunami and storm. More than 3 billion people use wood for fuel; some 2 billion people depend on forests for sustenance and income, and 750 million live within them. <br /><br />By proclaiming the International Day of Forests, the United Nations has created a new platform to raise awareness about the importance of all types of forest ecosystems to sustainable development. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Forests are often at the frontlines of competing demands. Urbanization and the consumption needs of growing populations are linked to deforestation for large-scale agriculture and the extraction of valuable timber, oil and minerals. Often the roads that provide infrastructure for these enterprises ease access for other forest users who can further exacerbate the rate of forest and biodiversity loss. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Forests are also central to combating climate change. They store more carbon than is in the atmosphere. Deforestation and land-use changes account for 17 per cent of human-generated carbon dioxide emissions. As weather patterns alter due to climate change, many forested areas are increasingly vulnerable. This underlines the urgency of a global, inclusive, legally binding climate change agreement that will address greenhouse gas emissions and encourage the protection and sustainable management of forests. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Notwithstanding these immense challenges, there are encouraging signs. The global rate of deforestation has decreased by almost 20 per cent in the past decade. We need now to intensify efforts to protect forests, including by incorporating them into the post-2015 development agenda and the sustainable development goals. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br /> On this first International Day of Forests, I urge governments, businesses and all sectors of society to commit to reducing deforestation, preventing forest degradation, reducing poverty and promoting sustainable livelihoods for all forest-dependent peoples.</span></div> </div>

UN Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson launches call for urgent action to end crisis of 2.5 billion people without basic sanitation

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div align="center" class="yiv8774029199MsoNormal" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363896756476_4815" style="text-align: center;"> <b id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363896756476_4898"><span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363896756476_4897" style="color: black; font-size: 14.0pt;">Ending open defecation seen as key to fighting poverty, disease</span></b></div> <div align="center" class="yiv8774029199MsoNormal" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363896756476_4814" style="text-align: center;"> <b id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363896756476_4900"><span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363896756476_4899" style="color: black; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span> </span>and achieving the Millennium Development Goals</span></b></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">On the eve of World Water Day, United Nations Deputy Secretary-General Jan Eliasson announced that he is convening, on behalf of the Secretary-General and the UN, a renewed effort to drive progress on sanitation as we head towards the 2015 target date for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). <br /><br />Of the world’s seven billion people, six billion have mobile phones. Yet only 4.5 billion have access to toilets or latrines – meaning that 2.5 billion people, mostly in rural areas, do not have proper sanitation. Unbelievably, 1.1 billion people still defecate in the open. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“I am determined to energize action that will lead to results,” said Mr. Eliasson. “I am calling on all actors – government, civil society, business and international organizations – to commit to measurable action and to mobilize the resources to rapidly increase access to basic sanitation. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“Let’s face it – this is a problem that people do not like to talk about. But it goes to the heart of ensuring good health, a clean environment and fundamental human dignity for billions of people – and achieving the Millennium Development Goals. With just over a thousand days for action before the 2015 MDG deadline, we have a unique window of opportunity to deliver a generational change.” </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Meeting targets, reducing poverty and disease </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The MDG target to halve the proportion of people without access to sanitation has helped to raise the profile of the issue, and 1.8 billion people gained access to improved sanitation since 1990, but there is still far to go. By contrast, the MDG target to halve the proportion of people without access to improved sources of water has already been met. <br /><br />The call to action aims to focus on improving hygiene, changing social norms, better managing human waste and waste-water, and, by 2025, completely eliminating the practice of open defecation, which perpetuates the vicious cycle of disease and entrenched poverty. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The countries where open defecation is most widely practiced are the same countries with the highest numbers of under-five child deaths, high levels of under-nutrition and poverty, and large wealth disparities. There are strong gender impacts, as having to go outside their homes to relieve themselves makes women and girls vulnerable to violence, and lack of safe, private toilets at schools is a major impediment to girls’ education. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Doing nothing is costly. Every US$1 spent on sanitation brings a US$5.50 return by keeping people healthy and productive. Poor sanitation, on the other hand, costs countries between 0.5 and 7.2 per cent of their GDP. Some 20 countries, mostly in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, account for over 80 per cent of open defecation in the world. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />UNICEF Deputy Executive Director Martin Mogwanja stated: “We wholeheartedly support the Deputy Secretary-General’s call to action, and I know that other UN agencies do as well. Ending open defecation will contribute to a 36 per cent reduction in diarrhea, which kills three quarters of a million children under five each year. We know that community approaches to ‘total sanitation’ work. We strongly support this effort to increase the focus on sanitation.” </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The initiative builds on the strong commitment already made by Member States to take action through the Sanitation Drive to 2015 endorsed by the UN General Assembly in 2010, as well as the Sanitation and Water For All partnership which includes over 40 governments, civil society, UN organizations and multilateral development banks. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Ambassador Csaba Korosi, Permanent Representative of Hungary to the UN, remarked, “As one of the co-chairs of the ‘Friends of Water’ group of Member States active on this issue, I commend the Deputy Secretary-General for his engagement. I pledge to help him in his aim to urge Governments to renew their commitments to end open defecation by 2025, with concrete plans and measurable milestones. Solutions exist and affordable, safe, effective and sustainable approaches and technologies are available – they just need to be prioritized and scaled up.” </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Focus at community level </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The key to the Deputy Secretary-General’s undertaking – which is not a new programme in itself and will not set up any new structures or funding mechanisms – is to focus on generating action at the community level – one community at a time. It aims to engage community leaders, schools, local institutions and citizens, with support from government leaders and international organizations. <br /><br />Civil society groups will be key to carrying out the work envisaged, and advocacy is essential to break the silence and make this a public issue. Kate Norgrove, Head of Campaigns for WaterAid, one of the world's preeminent NGOs focused exclusively on water and sanitation issues, stated, “WaterAid strongly supports the Deputy Secretary-General and will raise awareness and engage communities to help achieve his call to action. Few interventions would have greater impact on the lives of women and girls than addressing the health problems caused by poor sanitation and hygiene.”</span> </div> </div>

Kipandoni watarajia kupata maji safi

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Wananchi wa Kijiji cha Kipandoni Wadi ya Upenja wanatarajiwa kufaidika na huduma za maji safi katika kipindi kifupi kijacho mara baada ya kukamilika kwa ujenzi wa tangi lao la kuhifadhia maji yakiwemo marekebisho madogo madogo ya mabomba. <br /><br />Mbunge wa Jimbo la Kitope Balozi Seif Ali Iddi alieleza hayo wakati akizungumza na Wananchi hao wakati alipopata fursa yakukagua ujenzi wa Tangi hilo ambao ulikuwa na hitilafu zilizopelekea kuchelewa kukamilika kwa mradi huo katika wakati uliopangwa. <br /><br />Balozi Seif alisema katika kuhakikisha mradi huo unakamilika na kutoa huduma aliahidi kuchangia shilingi Milioni mbili { 2,000,000/- } ili kusaidia kukamilishia ujenzi huo sambamba na mifereji itakayotoa huduma kwa wananchi hao. <br /><br />Alisema Wananchi wanapaswa kuwa na uhakika wa kupata huduma za maji safi na salama ili muda wanaoutumia kutafuta huduma hiyo waweze kuuelekea katika harakati za kujitafutia maendeleo. <br /><br />“ Katika kuona tatizo hili linapatiwa ufumbuzi wa kudumu nimefikia maamuzi ya kuahidi kutoa shilingi milioni 2,000,000/- ili kukamilisha mradi huo wa maji safi ndani ya kipindi cha mwezi mmoja ujao”. Balozi Seif aliwaahidi wananchi hao. <br /><br />Mbunge huyo wa jimbo la Kitope ambae pia ni Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar aliangalia mradi wa maji safi wa Kiwengwa na kuutaka Uongozi wa Shehia hiyo kufanya mawasiliano na Uongozi wa Hoteli ya Melia ili kuondosha hitilafu zilizojitokeza katika matumizi ya umeme unatumiwa kwenye kisima cha mradi huo wa maji. <br /><br />Balozi Seif aliyepata fursa ya kuangalia chanzo cha hitilafu hiyo alisema bado hakujawa na sababu ya kuendeleza mvutano huo baada ya kupokea na kupima maelezo yaliyotolewa kutoka pande zote mbili. <br /><br />“ Nimeshazungumza na Uongozi wa Hoteli ya Melia na kunieleza kwamba hauna matatizo yoyote na wana kijiji hao lakini kilichojitokeza ni ule uamuzi wa wana Kijiji hao kuchukuwa hatua ya kuunga umeme bila ya kuuarifu uongozi wa Hoteli hiyo”. Alifafanua balozi Seif. <br /><br />Akizungumza na Wana vikundi vya ushirika wa Kufuli tatu wa Vijiji vya Kipandoni na Kiwengwa mara baada ya kuvifungua visanduku na kugawa faida kwa wanachama wake Balozi Seif amewapongeza wana vikundi hao kwa uamuzi wao wa kuendeleza ushirika wa aina hiyo. <br /><br />Alisema ushirika huo ambao huondosha lawama ya kuwepo kwa dhana ya ubabaishwaji na utapeli kwa baadhi ya waliopewa dhamana unaonekana kuwa na mwanzo mzuri wa mafanikio kwa wanachama wake. <br /><br />Katika kuunga mkono Vikundi hivyo Balozi Seif Ali Iddi amekabidhi mchango wa shilingi laki mbili kwa kila Kikundi kati ya Vikundi vinane vya Vijiji vya Kipandoni na Kiwengwa ili kuviongezea uhimili wake. <br /><br />Mbunge huyo pia alikagua eneo linalojengwa Skuli ya Msingi ya Kiwengwa Cairo ambalo wananchi wa Kijiji hicho wamemlalamikia ufinyu wa eneo hilo kufuatia baadhi ya watu kuendeleza ujenzi wa makaazi baada ya kukatiwa hati miliki ya viwanja kutoka kwa mamlaka zinazohusika. <br /><br />Halkadhalika Mbunge huyo aliwapongeza Wanafunzi wa Skuli ya Kiwengwa Kumba urembo waliofanya mitihani yao mwaka uliopita ambapo jumla ya wanafunzi 25 kati ya 29 wamefaulu vyema mitihani yao. <br /><br />“ Nakuhakikishieni wanangu kwamba ule utaratibu tuliojipangia wa kuwazawadia wanafunzi wetu upo na tukijaaliwa tutautekeleza katika kipindi kipidi sio kirefu sana”.

MESSAGE ON THE INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR THE ELIMINATION OF RACIAL DISCRIMINATION 21 March 2013

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 12.0pt;"></span> <br /> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination this year focuses on using the power of sport to end the blight of racism. It is an opportunity to highlight the sharp contrast between the positive values of sports and the despicable incidents of racism that scar even some professional competitions. <br /><br />Sport is a universal activity that can reaffirm our fundamental human rights. Combating racism lies at the heart of the United Nations Charter. The international community has an obligation to work for equality and non-discrimination, and we can advance progress by promoting these values through sports. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Each year we mark this Day on the anniversary of the 1960 Sharpeville massacre. We can never forget the 69 unarmed and peaceful demonstrators who were killed by South African police as they protested the country’s unjust apartheid laws. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Apartheid has long since been dismantled and there have been other important advances in the struggle against racism. These include treaties and declarations, the development of an international framework to combat racism, and national protection systems by numerous States. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Despite much progress, racism remains a pervasive menace to individuals and ethnic and religious groups worldwide. It is a threat to stability and a grave violation of human rights. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />We must join forces to end racism, and sport can help reach this goal. On this International Day, let us recommit to ending racial discrimination and realizing our vision of justice, equality and freedom from fear for all. </span> </div> </div>

Mji Mkongwe yazuwiya ujenzi

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Mamlaka ya Hifadhi ya Mji Mkongwe wa Zanzibar imezuia ujenzi unaoendelea wa sehemu ya wazi ambayo pia hutumiwa na wananchi wa eneo hilo kama njia ya wazi ya kupita ambao unafanywa na Uongozi wa Hoteli ya Pack iliyopo kinu cha Taa Malindi Mjini Zanzibar. <br /><br />Uzuiaji Ujenzi huo umekuja baada ya Mmiliki wa Hoteli hiyo kuendeleza ujenzi bila ya kupata kibali sambamba na kukiuka taratibu za matumizi ya eneo hilo ambazo zimewekwa na Serikali kupitia Mamlaka ya Mji Mkongwe kuwa ni eneo la wazi { Public Areas } kwa ajili ya Wananchi wote. <br /><br />Mkurugenzi wa Mamlaka ya Hifadhi ya Mji Mkongwe Ndugu Said Sarboko Makarani alimueleza Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar Balozi Seif Ali Iddi ambaye alifika kukagua eneo hilo kwamba mmiliki huyo tayari ameshaandikiwa Barua rasmi ya kuzuia ujenzi wowote lakini anaonekana kukaidi agizo hilo la Mamlaka. <br /><br />Ndugu Sarboko alisema eneo hilo kwa mujibu wa ramani ya Miji mkongwe limekuwa na mtaro wa asili unaopitishia maji machafu kuelekea Baharini. Hivyo ujenzi huo unaweza kuathiri kwa asilimia kubwa matatizo ya mafuriko ya maji machafu katika eneo hilo. <br /><br />Alimueleza Balozi Seif kwamba Mmiliki wa Hoteli hiyo alishauriwa mapema kutolitumia eneo hilo la wazi kwa ujenzi wa aina yoyote ambalo liko pembezoni mwa jengo lake kwa kuhofiwa kuvuruga mipango Miji pamoja na kusumbuwa Wananchi wanakusudia kupita njia hiyo. <br /><br />“ Tumeshamuarifu kuacha ujenzi kila mara lakini kinachoonekana mjenzi huyu hutumia mwanya wa kuendeleza ujenzi huo anapogundua kwamba sisi wasimamizi tuko nje ya Nchi. Tunaamini anatabia ya kutufuatilia nyendo zetu maana muda mfupi tu kama hatupo anautumia kukamilisha azma yake hiyo”. Alisisitiza Nd. Said Sarboko Makarani. <br /><br />Naye Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar Balozi Seif Ali Iddi alisema wakati agizo la kuzuia ujenzi huo likiendelea aliuagiza Uongozi wa Mmlaka ya Mji Mkongwe wa Zanzibar, Taasisi ya Ardhi na Mipango Miji kumwita Mmiliki wa Hoteli hiyo ili kumkumbusha zaidi mfumo wa muendelezo wa Mamlaka ya hifadhi ya Mji Mkongwe na taratibu zake. <br /><br />“ Hakikisheni kwamba maamuzi yenu yote mtakayoyatoa mara baada ya kukutana na Mmiliki huyo mnaniletea mara moja Ofisini kwangu”. Aliagiza Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar. <br /><br />Balozi Seif alionya kwamba bado wapo baadhi ya watu wanaoendelea kukaidi maagizo, ushauri na hata amri zinazotolewa na Serikali na taasisi zake kwenye masuala mbali mbali yenye kukiuka utaratibu zilizowekwa. <br /><br />Alisema hali hiyo baadaye hugeuzwa na watu hao kuwa kama unyanyaswaji unaoelekezwa katika dhana ya misingi ya kukiukwa kwa haki za Binaadamu jambo ambalo kamwe Serikali Kuu halitalikubali na kuliridhia. <br /><br />“ Wapo Watu tayari wameshajijengea tabia ya kudharau maagizo na amri halali za Serikali kwa kisingizio cha haki za Binaadamu na zinapochukuliwa hatua wanakuwa walalamikaji wakubwa dhidi ya Serikali”. Alielezea Balozi Seif. <br /><br />“ Mwaka jana wakati nilipokuja kufungua Mkutano wa uchaguzi wa Umoja wa Vijana, nilipomaliza nilikuja kukagua hatua za ujenzi wa Hoteli hii hapa na kuagiza mmiliki huyu aheshimu eneo la wazi kwa ajili ya shughuli za Wananchi. Sasa hili halikutekelezwa na ujenzi unaendelea. Maana yake nini ?”. Alihoji Balozi Seif. <br /><br />Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar aliendelea kukumbusha kwamba Jamii lazima iheshimu maamuzi ya Serikali hasa katika suala la matumizi sahihi ya Ardhi na wakielewa kwamba Ardhi yote inaendelea kuwa mali ya Serikali. <br /><br />Balozi Seif alifafanua kwamba Serikali wakati wowote inaweza kuamua ifanye nini katika matumizi ya ardhi hiyo hata kama yupo Mtu aliyepewa kwa matumizi yake ya kawaida iwe kilimo, Makazi na hata kama harakati za Kiuchumi na Kibiashara. <br /><br />Othmana Khamis Ame </span> <span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Ofisi ya Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar</span></div> </div>

Said Shaaban alisema kwamba Kamati zote zimetekeleza vyema majukumu yake kama zilivyopangiwa. <br /><br />Nd. Said aliwaeleza wajumbe hao kuwa licha ya ufanisi huo lakini zipo baadhi ya changamoto zilizojichomoza ndani ya utekelezaji wa kamati hizo ambazo alizitaja kuwa ni ufinyu wa Bajeti kulingana na shughuli zilivyopangwa pamoja na ushiriki mdogo wa maafisa wa Serikali na Masheha kwa dhana ya kwamba wao sio wahusika. <br /><br />Nd. Said alisema katika kufanikisha nusu karne ya Maadhimisho ya Sherehe za Mapinduzi ya Zanzibar kutimia miaka 50 Sekriterieti imependekeza kutumiwa vyema vyombo vya Habari hasa vile vya Serikali katika kushajiisha umma kuelewa umuhimu wao wa kushiriki vyema katika maadhimisho hayo ya kihistoria. <br /><br />Akitoa nasaha zake Mwenyekiti wa Kamati hiyo ya Taifa ya Maadhimisho ya Sherehe na Mapambo ambae pia ni Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar Balozi Seif alizipongeza kamati zote kwa kufanikisha vyema sherehe za kutimia miaka 49 ya Mapinduzi ya Zanzibar. <br /><br />Balozi Seif alifahamisha kwamba sherehe za miaka 49 zimefanikiwa vyema kutokana na ushirikiano mzuri uliopo baina ya Viongozi, Wafanyakazi wa Taasisi za Umma na zile binafsi pamoja na Wananchi. <br /><br />“ Wajumbe wakati tunaipokea Tathmini hii ya sherehe za maadhimisho ya kutimia miaka 49 ya Mapinduzi ya Zanzibar tunapaswa kuanza safari kubwa ya sherehe hizi kutimia miaka 50 ya Mapinduzi yetu matukufu sawa na kusema Nusu Karne”. Alieleza Balozi Seif. <br /><br />Wajumbe wa Kamati ya Taifa ya Maadhimisho ya Sherehe na Mapambo wanatarajiwa kukutana tena katika kipindi cha mwezi mmoja ujao kuendelea kupanga mikakati ya maandalizi ya maadhimishop hayo ya Nusu Karne ya Mapinduzi Matukufu ya Zanzibar ya mwaka 1964. <br /><br />Wakati huo huo Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar Balozi Seif akakiongoza Kikao cha Kamati ya Maafa Zanzibar kujadili namna ya Taifa linavyoweza kujiandaa dhidi ya maafa au matatizo yoyote yanayoweza kutokea katika kipindi hichi cha mvua za masika zilizokwishaanza. <br /><br />Kikao hicho kilichojumuisha wajumbe wa kamati hiyo kutoka Unguja na Pemba kilifanyika katika ukumbi wa Ofisi ya Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar iliyopo Vuga Mjini Zanzibar. <br /><br />Akiwasilisha Taarifa juu ya mwelekeo wa Mvua za Masika mwezi wa Machi hadi Mei mwaka huu Mkurugenzi wa Idaya ya Maafa Zanzibar Nd. Ali Juma Hamad alisema pamoja na kuwa na matarajio ya mvua za wastani katika maeneo mengi, lakini bado upo uwezekano wa kutokea miripuko ya magonjwa. <br /><br />Ndugu Hamad alisema taasisi zinazohusika na maafa zinapaswa kuchukuwa hatua za tahadhari katika maandalizi ya kukabiliana na madhara yanayoweza kusababishwa na Mvua za masika za mwaka huu. <br /><br />Akizungumzia sekta ya kilimo na usalama wa chakula Nd. Hamad alisema maeneo mengi ya ukanda wa pwani ya kaskazini pamoja na Visiwa vya Zanzibar yanatarajiwa kuwa na unyevu unyevu wa kutosha wa udongo hali ambayo wakulima wanashauriwa kuendelea na taratibu za kawaida za Kilimo cha msimu wa mvua za masika. <br /><br />Akikiahirisha Kikao hicho Mwenyekiti wa Kamati hiyo ya Maafa Zanzibar Balozi Seif Ali Iddi aliiagiza Idara ya Maafa Zanzibar kwa kushirikiana na wataalamu wa Taasisi washirika kuandaa utaratibu mahsusi wa kutoa taarifa rasmi kwa Wananchi mapema wiki ijayo itakayosaidia Jamii kuwa na hadhari dhidi ya majanga yoyote yanayoweza kutokea katika mvua za masika. <br /><br />Balozi Seif alisema Serikali pamoja na Jamii yote inapaswa kujitayarisha na hali yoyote ya majanga au maafa kulingana na msimu wa masika uliokwishaanza mapema mwezi huu. <br /><br />Wakichangia katika Kikao hicho baadhi ya Wajumbe wa Kamati hiyo wamesema Wananchi walio wengi hadi sasa hawajawa na utamaduni ya kufuatilia mienendo ya mifumo ya hali ya hewa nchini ambayo ni muhimu katika maisha yao ya kila siku. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Othman Khamis Ame </span> <span style="font-size: large;"> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <span style="font-size: large;">Ofisi ya Makamu wa Pili wa Rais wa Zanzibar</span></div> </div>

The Open Data Platform program is part of the AfDB’s recently launched “Africa Information Highway” initiative aimed at significantly improving data management and dissemination in Africa. Work is on course to complete platforms for the rest of African countries by July 2013.<br /><br />The Open Data Platform is a user-friendly tool for extracting data, creating and sharing own customized reports, and visualizing data across themes, sectors and countries in tables, charts and maps. Through the Open Data Platform, users can access a wide range of development data on African countries from multiple international and national official sources. The platform also facilitates the collection, analysis and sharing of data among countries and with international development partners. The platform offers a unique opportunity for various users, such as policymakers, analysts, researchers, business leaders and investors around the world, to gain access to reliable and timely data on Africa. Users can visualize time series development indicators over a period of time, perform comprehensive analysis at country and regional levels, utilize presentation-ready graphics or create their own, blog, and share their views and work with others, thereby creating an informed community of users.</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The Open Data Platform initiative is a response by the African Development Bank Group aimed at significantly increasing access to quality data necessary for managing and monitoring development results in African countries, including the MDGs. It responds to a number of important global and regional initiatives to scale up the availability of quality data on Africa and so foster evidence-based decision-making, public accountability and good governance.</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Once implemented, the Open Data Platform will be used by African countries for all data submission flows to the AfDB and possibly other international development partners, including the International Monetary Fund (IMF), EU Commission, World Health Organization (WHO), UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), African Union Commission (AUC) and UN Economic Commission for Africa (ECA). This initiative presents a unique opportunity for African countries to take the lead in implementation and promotion of international statistical standards across all countries in the region and in enhancing the quality of the data disseminated by African countries.</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The initiative will also significantly revolutionize data management and dissemination in Africa, and reposition the continent for more effective participation in the global information economy.</span> </div> <div class="yiv0731621197MsoNoSpacing" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363374911112_3230"> <span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363374911112_3229" lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">                                                                                                                                  </span></div> <div class="yiv0731621197MsoNoSpacing" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363374911112_3208"> <i id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363374911112_3207"><span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363374911112_3206" lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Distributed by the African Press Organization on behalf of the African Development Bank</span></i></div> </div>

We’re not waiting for you to come. We’re coming to you.”</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Chehadé made his comments during the Africa Multi-stakeholder Internet Governance meeting in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The two-day meeting ended Friday after drawing Internet leaders from across the continent. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“We will have ICANN staff, at least one, in each of the 6 regions of Africa. North, South, East, West, Central and the Indian Ocean,” said Chehadé. “I want African on-ramps into the ICANN structures. I will give you the on-ramps, but you need to climb them.”</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The ICANN leader also said he would like to see a dramatic increase in the number of accredited Domain Name Registrars on the African continent. Currently there are only five accredited Registrars in Africa among more than one thousand worldwide, but Chehadé said he wants to see that number increase five-fold in less than two years. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />“This is about us moving the needle forward. Africa will not wait,” said Chehadé. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The two-day event in Addis Ababa was attended by some two hundred people, including Ministers and other government representatives, leaders from the African business community, civil society and from ICANN structures in Africa; AFTLD and AFRALO. </span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />The multi-stakeholder IG event was co-organized by the African Union, ISOC-Africa, AFRINIC and the African IGF. It was preceded by a two-day workshop about the development of the DNS Industry in Africa.</span> <span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />During the event the implementation of an African Strategy for better engagement in Africa was discussed in detail. This strategy was prepared by representatives from the African community last summer and announced during the ICANN meeting in Toronto in October. Fadi Chehadé reiterated ICANN’s commitment to help implement the three-year strategy in coordination with our global and regional partners in Africa.</span> </div> <div class="yiv1044792565MsoNoSpacing" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363208029756_2605"> <span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">  </span></div> <div class="yiv1044792565MsoNoSpacing" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363208029756_2602"> <i id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363208029756_2604"><span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363208029756_2603" lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", "serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Distributed by the African Press Organization on behalf of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN)</span></i></div> </div>

Charles Kitwanga ameeleza kuwa lengo la ziara yake mkoani Mwanza si kufungia viwanda bali ni kutaka kuwa na msimamo wa pamoja na kuzingatia na kutekeleza sheria ya usimamizi wa mazingira, ili iwe yenye manufaa kwa watanzania, “lengo la kuja ni kuhakikisha sheria inafuatwa” alisisitiza. <br /><br />Mh. Waziri aliongeza kwa kusema kusema kuwa ni vyema Halmashauri na wizara husika zikajipanga ili kuona namna ya kuwapatia sehemu mbadala wananchi wanaoishi milimani bila kuwabugudhi, ili kule nako kupangwe ili kuwe na mazingira endelevu. <br /><br />Wakati huohuo, kamanda wa police wa kikosi maalum cha mazingira Nchini Bw.
