The Secretary-General’s report and today’s briefings underline some crucial and evident factors: the need for an intelligent, hard-headed political vision for Afghanistan’s future and a credible political process to achieve that vision; the fact that while military efforts alone will not resolve Afghanistan’s conflict, we cannot lose sight of the importance of security to making progress in other areas, such as governance, development and human rights; the indispensability of a credible and effective partner in the Afghan Government itself that can provide basic services and take action against corruption; and the obvious need to give priority to developing Afghan capabilities in order to transition to Afghan ownership.

Moreover, from the diverse nature of submissions received, it is evident that, while some indigenous peoples may applaud the incorporation of indigenous laws into national laws, this may not always be the case, as some communities feel that the incorporation of these laws into mainstream systems can distort the spirit of these laws or contribute to the loss of indigenous control over their own legal and other systems.

On the basis of image sequences from satellites such as the Earth Probe total ozone mapping spectrometer (EP/TOMS) and the Ozone Monitoring Instrument on the Aura satellite, it was possible to determine that dust transport from the Sahara over the Atlantic to the Caribbean and Cuba is associated with synoptic-scale processes and shows marked stationarity and a well-defined time-space progression, which is very similar to the time-space progression of dust storm occurrence over the Sahara and Sahel.

As this process continues to respond to market-dominated demands for “cheap” extraction, there is now a growing trend for mining projects to increase in scale and to extend over wider areas, thus inflicting a greater impact over these areas and deepening long-term disruption to the environment and to those who depend upon it.
