This bibliography includes scientific articles on the Drakensberg, Maloti and Adjacent Lowlands published between 1808 and 2019. Although focusing on material appearing in accredited journals, there is such a wealth of information in the form of unpublished, yet traceable, reports, documents, presentations and dissertations, these are also included. The bibliography has two parts – a complete list arranged alphabetically, and the same references arranged in 33 different disciplines. These range from Palaeobotany with 17 entries, to Rock Art with 502 entries.

Publié à l’occasion du 40e anniversaire de la Convention du patrimoine mondial, ce recueil thématique d’études de cas offre une analyse approfondie des sites du patrimoine mondial et de leur valeur universelle exceptionnelle dans le contexte du développement durable. Les études de cas décrivent vingt-six sites du patrimoine mondial représentant une variété de thèmes, de typologies et de régions ; elles expliquent leurs apports positifs aux communautés locales et aux écosystèmes, et partagent les enseignements tirés avec toutes les parties prenantes impliquées. Le livre met l’accent sur une vision holistique et intégrée du patrimoine mondial, le reliant avec le rôle joué par les communautés locales dans sa gestion et sa protection, avec les questions de durabilité des écosystèmes et de préservation de la diversité biologique, linguistique et culturelle. La dimension interdisciplinaire de ce livre ralliera les chercheurs, les praticiens, les représentants des communautés et le grand public, et encouragera la conservation du patrimoine culturel et naturel, vecteur clé du développement durable et de la cohésion sociale.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the UN in 2015 have influenced the actions of international and intergovernmental organisations and governments around the world, and have dictated priorities for international aid spending. Culture, including heritage, is often presented as fundamental to addressing the SDGs: since 2010, the United Nations has adopted no fewer than five major policy recommendations that assert its importance as a driver and enabler of development. Yet, heritage is marginalized from the Sustainable Development Goals. Rethinking Heritage for Sustainable Development constitutes a substantial and original assessment of whether and how heritage has contributed to three key dimensions of sustainable development (namely poverty reduction, gender equality and environmental sustainability) within the context of its marginalisation from the Sustainable Development Goals and from previous international development agendas. Sophia Labadi adopts a novel, inclusive, large-scale and systematic approach, providing the first comprehensive history of the international approaches on culture (including heritage) for development, from 1970 to the present day. This book is also the first to assess the negative and positive impacts of all the international projects implemented in sub-Saharan Africa by a consortium of UN organisations that aimed to provide evidence for the contribution of heritage for development in time for the negotiation of the SDGs. The book’s conclusions provide recommendations for rethinking heritage for development, while reflecting on the major shortcomings of the selected projects.

The World Heritage Convention provides an international platform for safeguarding cultural and natural heritage, and a showcase for the diversity of African heritage. From vast deserts and forests with a variety of rare wildlife, to traces of past civilizations demonstrating human evolution and mastery of difficult terrain, the Africa region is a rich depository of natural and cultural history. The extent of its diversity reminds us of our common responsibility for its safeguarding for present and future generations. More remains to be discovered in this region.

For a long time, resource conservationists have viewed environmental conservation as synonymous with wilderness and wildlife resources only, oblivious to the contributions made by cultural and heritage resources. However, cultural heritage resources in many parts of the developing world are gradually becoming key in social (e.g. communities’ identities and museums), economic (heritage tourism and eco-tourism), educational (curriculum development), civic (intergenerational awareness), and international resources management (e.g. UNESCO). In universities, African cultural heritage resources are facing a challenge of being brought into various academic discourses and syllabi in a rather reactive and/or haphazard approach, resulting in failure to fully address and research these resources’ conservation needs to ensure that their use in multiple platforms and by various stakeholders is sustainable. This book seeks to place African cultural heritage studies and conservation practices within an international and modern world discourse of conservation by presenting its varied themes and topics that are important for the development of the wider field of cultural heritage studies and management.

La pollution et la fracture socio-économique, crées par un modèle de production aujourd'hui remis en cause, ont favorisé l'évolution de la pensée du développement. Mais cette vision nécessite le déploiement d'une dynamique collective. A l'épreuve du développement durable, l'Afrique est fragilisée par des facteurs de régression (pauvreté, conflits, famine, désertification) réduisant l'effet des stratégies de gestion efficace des ressources naturelles et de promotion humaine. Par ailleurs, le continent africain concilie difficilement la tradition et la modernité. Quant à l'occident, il n'a pas encore saisi que la solidarité est le meilleur gilet (commun) de sauvetage.

A group of progressive African leaders has developed a visionary plan to lift Africa out of poverty and into the global mainstream of sustainable growth and development. The New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) confronts Africa's challenges directly and realistically, and in it, Africans invite their partners throughout the world to work with them. The Canada Fund for Africa responds to this invitation. Its goals are to foster innovation and economic growth, strengthen African institutions, and improve the well-being of future generations of Africans. This document presents a brief sketch of the activities currently being supported by the Fund as well as a summary of current commitments.

African countries have already started the hard work of implementing Agenda 2063 and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which were adopted in January 2015 and September 2015 respectively. Both agendas are complex in terms of numbers of goals, targets and indicators as well as dimensions of development covered; both are very ambitious and geared towards sustainable development through notably industrialization, eradication of poverty and inclusiveness. This progress report on Agenda 2063 and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2017) will provide a rigorous assessment of Africa’s progress in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Agenda 2063 and serve as a basis for policy discussion, peer learning and advocacy.

Transboundary and transnational cooperation is at the very heart of the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage, as it reflects the core principle of shared responsibility, international solidarity and co-operation expressed in its Articles 4 and 6. It is an enriching experience of interculturalism and dialogue between people, and offers a unique opportunity to exchange and find effective and sustainable solutions for emerging issues such as climate change, migration, integration, conflict and many others. Home to the earliest human civilizations and some of the most spectacular natural places on Earth, Africa has fully embraced the World Heritage concept and is implementing some of the best practices when it comes to cross-border collaboration. I am therefore extremely proud to present this first publication of Managing Transnational UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Africa. Building on the outcomes of several initiatives under the World Heritage Convention, such as the first regional meeting on transboundary cooperation for the promotion of effective management of World Heritage sites in Africa, held in 2019 in the city of Man (Côte d'Ivoire), and the dialogue during the Third Cycle of Periodic Reporting in the Africa region 2020-2021, this publication brings together a series of articles from specialists in the management of African heritage, reflecting the interdisciplinary and forwardlooking approaches that have dominated research and conservation methodologies for transboundary management in Africa in recent decades. By reading the articles of this publication, carefully selected by a technical and scientific committee, you will understand why transnational management of properties in Africa has emerged as a means to provide a cross-cutting and sustainable response to contemporary issues related to heritage and beyond. You will also learn about the variety of challenges and opportunities related to the management of these sites and different best practices that have been implemented. I would also like to recall the important statement that is the Ngorongoro Declaration, adopted at the Arusha Conference in Tanzania in 2016, which stresses the importance of preserving African heritage as a driver for sustainable development. The Declaration considers African heritage as critically important in order to achieve regional socio-economic benefits, environmental protection, social cohesion and peace. It is also worthwhile to highlight that this work is in line with the objectives of the African Union's Agenda 2063: The Africa We Want, addressing the challenges of safeguarding UNESCO World Heritage in Africa in the context of the region's rapid development, and advocating for the incorporation of regional strategies in the pursuit of solutions, which will necessarily lead to an Africa with a strong cultural identity, a common heritage and shared values. In this regard, I would like to extend my sincere appreciation and thanks to all the participating site managers, experts, institutions and government representatives for their commitment and dedication to the protection of African heritage for future generations. Last, but not least, I am particularly thankful to the government of the Netherlands
