The ASC has launched a blog portal where you can read posts by our researchers and students. Senior researcher Marcel Rutten writes about the non-sustainable mining of natural resources in East Africa: conflicts over land or water, the impact of trade and eco-imperialism are just some of the issues discussed. Senior researcher Mirjam de Bruijn writes about her travels through Chad and Cameroon. She looks for 'counter voices': young people who try to change these countries in often artistic ways. Director Ton Dietz wrote his first post about Chinese-Dutch cooperation in African Studies after attending a conference in Beijing. Enjoy reading their blogs!

In 1994, Rwanda experienced the worst genocide in Africa in modern times. The UN General Assembly has designated 7 April as International Day of Reflection on the Genocide in Rwanda. To coincide with this, the ASC’s Library has compiled a web dossier that contains recently published titles on the genocide, the process of reconciliation and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda. All titles are available in the ASC Library. The web dossier also contains a selection of ten important titles on the genocide and links to relevant websites.
