3.1 Participatory Community Resource Mapping Upper Gana Kebele: During focus groups, farmers from the lower and the upper catchments were requested to draw resource maps of the entire kebele. This exercise was to allow farmers to map their territories and indicate which places and which resources and assets were used for which purposes.

The Whale in the Cape Verde Islands: Seascapes as a Cultural Construction from the Viewpoint of History, Literature, Local Art and Heritage

Cultural constructions of landscapes, space and environments, and of people’s relationship with nature, have in the Cape Verde Islands a perspective of their own and might have been mediated by the whale. To address perceptions about these marine mammals, historical sources, literature, art, memory and heritage were considered. Whaling influenced history and diaspora and is reflected in literary productions. Remains of whales are found in museums and used as decorative pieces and local art. We found the Cape Verdean seascapes as being culturally and naturally constructed and the whale occupies a true ‘place’ of convergence.

Forests To Visit

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bia%C5%82owie%C5%BCa_Forest

Białowieża Forest^[a] is a forest on the border between Belarus and Poland. It is one of the last and largest remaining parts of the immense primeval forest that once stretched across the European Plain. The forest is home to 800 European bison, Europe's heaviest land animal.^[2] UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere Programme designated the Polish Biosphere Reserve Białowieża in 1976^[3] and the Belarusian Biosphere Reserve Belovezhskaya Puschcha in 1993.

Inspired by the German one-room schoolhouse where Josef Albers once taught, this new school in a remote region of Senegal is the first there to offer secular education in tandem with Quranic teaching. The school serves about 300 students ranging in age from 5 to 10 in a co-educational environment that slips easily into the cultural fabric of the surrounding communities.

In designing this project, the team significantly improved the existing government-approved typology for schools in the region. They are typically rectangular rooms made of concrete blocks with corrugated metal sheets for roofs; the often deafening noise caused by rainfall can make hearing lessons challenging. Instead, the team opted for more traditional and environmentally friendly building materials, such as mud bricks, thatch, and bamboo.

 Marshall Island Stick Charts

Ancient mariners from the Marshall Islands developed "stick charts" to understand the vast Pacific Ocean. However, the devices are not really sticks and they're not really charts!

 

The charts aren't made of sticks. Most stick charts are made of coconut fiber and shells. Placement of the fibers and shells indicate the location of islands, waves, and currents. 

 

Stick charts were not used for navigation in the way we use maps or charts today. In fact, the Marshallese probably did not consult stick charts on their long journeys throughout the Marshall Islands and Micronesia. Navigators memorized the chart before the journey was made.

 

Charts were highly individualized. Sometimes, a stick chart could only be read by the person who made it! Still, there are some standard features used to interpret ocean features.
