Students and faculty in UF Law’s Environmental and Land Use Law Program’s Spring Break Field Course explored the diverse marine and coastal ecoregion shared by South Florida and the Bahamian archipelago.
The purpose of the week-long course, led by Tom Ankersen, Florida Sea Grant's Legal Specialist, was to provide students a firm grounding in the law, policy and practice of coastal and marine sustainable development through field-based immersion, practitioner lectures, and reflective discussions.
The group traveled from the intensely developed waterfront of Biscayne Bay to the bustling government center of Nassau in the Bahamas, and then on to the quiet, rural family island of Andros, bounded by the great Bahama Bank and the Tongue of the Ocean. While there is a world of difference between the two neighbors separated by the Gulf Stream, they share a remarkably similar ecosystem facing many of the same threats, and common language of the common law.
This year’s Spring Break Field course furthers the UF Law Conservation Clinic’s South Florida Bahamas ecoregional initiative supported by Florida Sea Grant, and in partnership with the Bahamas National Trust.

VAfrica creates a platform for the youth, Creatives, Business and grass roots organisations of Africa. Our first projects launched in 2013 With Zimlink, Inphotopia with great success followed by Lawilink and Uprise Albinism in 2015 and London to Freetown in 2019/20. With the recent changes in the world, we now have an opportunity to build a strong foundation in cities, towns and villages across Africa. African Nations have all the skills, resources and vision to shape global communities. VAfrica offers a unique opportunity in the form of; Training open to all socio-economic groups, Online magazines that promote Ideas and creativity. VAfrica can create links and improve upon existing structures between NGO’s, grass roots organisations, Business and government.
In 2015 VAfrica set up an organisation in Malawi Lawilink in an 18-month period Lawilink operated southern region of Malawi through University student volunteers (Blantyre polytechnic) also the community volunteers from Ndirande, Pholombe & the surrounding areas. Creating partnerships between the private sector government and NGOs in the UK, Malawi & Zimbabwe. This project was funded at cost of £105,000.00 with a £30,000.00 return. Lawilink generated new employment opportunities, contributed to government policy, supported the set of new business/organisations and conducted virous educational/training programs. VAfrica with cross party support from the governments of the UK and the participating African nations will raise funds to create hub’s across Africa, using the experience’s we gained on the model’s created in the UK, Malawi and Zimbabwe.
In 2019 VAfrica launched “London to Freetown” connecting artists across the world with North West Africa, driving from London England to Freetown Sierra Leone.

VAfrica works together with African Union nations and the African Economic communities; AMU, CEN-SAD, COMESA, EAC, ECCAS, ECOWAS, IGAD and SADC. To facilitate cultural awareness and socio-economic opportunities and platforms for free thinkers and creatives. Africa is the 2nd Largest continent on the planet, with an area: 30.37 million km², 20 percent of the worlds land mass is Africa. A population of 1.216 billion (2016). Yet in March 2013, Africa was identified as the world's poorest inhabited continent: Africa's entire combined GDP is barely a third of the United States' GDP with a GDP of $2.6 trillion (Nominal) in 2019. Ranking Africa 5th in out of 7 continents in GDP. Although Africa supplies its skilled labor and raw materials to fuel the Global economies. Vafrica will address this imbalance to training, support and implementation of sustainable business/organisations.
VAfrica gives opportunities to all, there is a need for the world to be at peace with Africa at its heart. So much of Africa’s history has been pushed to one side and subverted. As we travel and build the VAfrica program's one of the objectives is to record the stories music poems before they are lost, to tell the stories the world is missing.
