Download or read book Analysis of Eswatini s Wildlife Policies and Laws written by Didi Wamukoya and published by African Wildlife Foundation. This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swaziland has a long history of conservation, dating back to pre‐colonial and colonial times. The government remains committed to wildlife conservation having enacted laws that protect wildlife and their habitat and created institutions to enforce those laws. This commitment extends to the regional and international sphere where Swaziland is a party to various regional international instruments that ensure conservation of wildlife as well as facilitating wildlife law enforcement. Despite all the government’s efforts, there are still gaps in the various laws that need to be addressed in order to ensure proper protection of wildlife in the country. This analysis found that the wildlife laws are very fragmented leading to a fragmentation in the institutional framework. Fragmented laws lead to overlapping legal provisions and lack of coordination and confusion in enforcement of those laws. The laws are also very dated and do not address the current challenges facing wildlife. The penalties for wildlife offences are quite law and this could be attributed to the fact that the laws were enacted when wildlife crimes had not yet escalated to the levels that we are witnessing today. The laws also do not fully implement the international requirements of the instruments to which Swaziland is a party. They do not for instance address organised crime and civil forfeiture of proceeds of crime. Some or all of these challenges have led to wildlife crimes having a low profile in Swaziland and most often being treated as misdemeanours by the courts. This review recommends that to address the challenges and strengthen wildlife legislation in Swaziland, the profile of wildlife crimes in the country be raised so that they hold the same weight as other serious crimes, the wildlife legislation be updated, consolidated and harmonised, the institutional framework be harmonised with clear coordination mechanisms, the penalties for wildlife offences be enhanced, a specific law criminalising organised crime be enacted and anti‐money laundering laws be updated to address civil forfeiture of illegal assets and proceeds of crime. It is also recommended that local communities living next to protected areas be engaged and sensitised on the benefits of conservation and the repercussions of wildlife crimes.
Download or read book Swaziland written by Mike Unwin and published by Bradt Travel Guides. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swaziland is Africa's second smallest country and its last remaining absolute monarchy. Dwarfed by neighbouring South Africa, this tiny, landlocked nation punches well above its weight in terms of both nature and culture. Author Mike Unwin explores the excellent wildlife reserves and wild hiking trails offering waterfalls, rock art and prolific flora and birdlife, and introduces travellers to the country's rich and varied landscapes. His personal insights, together with colourful anecdotes provide entertaining insights, give an insider's perspective. He divides Swaziland into four distinct regions, with detailed maps and itineraries for timescales from one weekend to one month. It includes a practical guide to neighbouring attractions easily accessed from Swaziland, including Maputo (Mozambique) and the Kruger Park (South Africa), both less than one hour's drive away. The natural history section offers far greater detail and more accurate information than found elsewhere, drawing on the author's extensive insider knowledge and experience.

Download or read book Africa 3 volumes written by Toyin Falola and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 1774 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These volumes offer a one-stop resource for researching the lives, customs, and cultures of Africa's nations and peoples. Unparalleled in its coverage of contemporary customs in all of Africa, this multivolume set is perfect for both high school and public library shelves. The three-volume encyclopedia will provide readers with an overview of contemporary customs and life in North Africa and sub-Saharan Africa through discussions of key concepts and topics that touch everyday life among the nations' peoples. While this encyclopedia places emphasis on the customs and cultural practices of each state, history, politics, and economics are also addressed. Because entries average 14,000 to 15,000 words each, contributors are able to expound more extensively on each country than in similar encyclopedic works with shorter entries. As a result, readers will gain a more complete understanding of what life is like in Africa's 54 nations and territories, and will be better able to draw cross-cultural comparisons based on their reading.
