iWon Travel Africa Senegal Powered by HISTORY and CULTURE History Culture History Senegal's recorded history dates from the 8th century, when it was part of the empire of Ghana. As this empire waned, the Djolof kingdom arose and flourished during the 13th and 14th centuries, in the area between the Senegal River and modern-day Dakar. By the end of the 19th century, France controlled all of Senegal, and Dakar was built as the administrative center. Senegal sent a deputy to the French parliament as early as 1848, but it wasn't until 1914 that the first African deputy, Blaise Diagne, was elected. He was followed by a new generation of black politicians led by Lamine Gueye and Leopold Senghor. In the run-up to independence, Senegal joined French Sudan to form the Federation of Mali. The federation gained independence in 1960 but broke up two months later. Senegal became a republic under the presidency of Leopold Senghor. At the end of 1980, Senghor stepped down as president. His place was taken by Abdou Diouf, whose first major crisis occurred in 1984, when it was discovered that an estimated 700,000 tonnes of groundnuts (about three times the official exported amount) had been smuggled into neighboring countries by peasants unhappy with the fixed payments they received from the government. In 1989, a minor incident on the Senegal-Mauritania border led to serious riots in both countries in which many people died. Both countries deported thousands of the other's nationals (killing hundreds in the process), the border was closed and diplomatic relations were broken off until April 1992.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 1999 SIERRA LEONE Africa tested by ragtag rebels A Nigerian-led peacekeeping force is set back in Freetown by youthful militia this week. David Hecht Special to The Christian Science Monitor DAKAR, SENEGAL Sierra Leone's decade of tumult More than 15,000 "peacekeeping" troops from West Africa nations and millions of dollars of logistical support from the US and Europe have failed to stop a ragtag bunch of rebels from shooting their way into Sierra Leone's capital this week. The rebels are mostly teenagers, often high on drugs. This latest development in Sierra Leone's civil war has analysts wondering if regional armies can solve conflicts in Africa. Defending Sierra Leone's elected government is a regional force known as ECOMOG, led by Nigeria, the largest military power in West Africa. Thousands of Nigerian troops could not stop the advance after rebels released their comrades from a prison in Freetown on Wednesday. UN officials say that the rebels have taken control of more than half of the country, including a key diamond-mining town, in just two weeks. REGIONAL EFFORT: At emergency meeting Dec. 28 in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, West African officials sought solution to Sierra Leone civil war.

Two ethnic groups live in the Fouladou region, the Fulah and Mandinkas. Both practice excision. The predominant religion is Islam. The seminar was an initiative by the Sare Yoba Kani villlage community action and development programme (PADEC/SYK) which also caters for neighbouring communities in Guinea Bissau (the border runs two kilometres from the village). The meeting received the financial support of CI-AF Geneva, (the Inter African Committee on Traditional Practices affecting women's and children's health). This kind of meeting is the logical consequence of work being undertaken for several years by ENDA-SYNFEV (Synergy, gender and development) and Enda ACAS (Initiatives in Casamance), two teams of the international environment and development organisation ENDA Tiers-Monde based in Dakar Senegal and supported by CI-AF. The work over the years includes statistical research, national, regional and inter-regional meetings, international networking, and thematic and local actions. Since they were involved from the early stages of the process, the populations of Sare Yoba Kani wanted delicate questions such as excision to be dealt with within their local environment.
