The Africa Center’s Managing Security Resources in Africa (MSRA) seminar held in Washington, DC is providing a capacity building opportunity for practitioners and policy-makers responsible for resource management in Africa’s security sector by reinforcing many of the important lessons learned during the last decade.
The black dots are some of national parks/protected areas managed by the NGO African Parks, that likely have suitable habitat for White Rhinos, they were hoping to take on the management of the two Angolan parks that I've marked in green, but evidently their negotiations with the Angolan government have not proved successful yet, so they are not managing those parks. African Parks recently purchased Platinum Rhino, the largest private rhino farm in South Africa, taking charge of some 2,000 Southern White Rhinos, their intention is to rewild all of these rhinos over a period of time, some have already been moved to other reserves in South Africa. Other SWRs obtained before the Purchase of Platinum Rhino have been already moved, 30 were introduced to Akagera National Park in Rwanda, that as the map shows is outside of the White Rhinos historical range, but they likely lived there in prehistoric times and should do well there now and should be safe. 16 were introduced to Garamba NP in the DRC the last stronghold of the NWR, that is now sadly functionally extinct, White Rhinos were important to the ecology of Garamba so introducing SWRs to the park is a good thing, but keeping them safe will be a challenge, but then keeping the safe in South Africa where they came from is a serious challenge.
I expect that African Parks will introduce SWRs to some of the other parks that they manage in the coming years, currently Matusadona NP in Zimbabwe is the only park they manage that is within the SWRs likely former range, but I don't see a big problem with moving more to parks outside that range. I don't know if they will send SWRs to Chad, I expect that they might well, but restoring Black Rhinos to that country would be the bigger priority, so they may want to take more Black Rhinos to Zakouma NP, before considering taking any SWRs there, I don't know. The park should be safe enough, but White Rhinos are larger and more conspicuous than Black Rhinos, because they are grazers and favour more open habitats, making them easier to find and poach.
As part of the effort to save the SWR in South Africa, once most of the major parks and reserves there had been restocked, they decided to export rhinos not just to former range states, a reasonable number were introduced to Kenya, as the map shows Kenya is outside the former historical range of the species, but they likely occurred there in prehistoric times, there's now a quite significant extralimital population of SWRs in Kenya. The Ol Pejeta Conservancy as well as having SWRs is home to the last two known NWRs to females mother and daughter Najin and Fatu, who are now unable to breed, conservationists and scientist are hopefully, that they can create a new population, and already have 30 frozen embryos ready to implant into SWR surrogates.
Another extralimital population was established at the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary close to Murchison Falls NP in Uganda, with the NWR functionally extinct, UWA has taken the decision to repopulate their parks with SWRs. MFNP was for a short time home to an extralimital herd of NWRs captured in West Nile Province just across the Nile from the park, the last one was probably killed by TPDF soldiers during the Tanzania-Uganda war, in the near future, UWA will likely move some SWRs from Ziwa to MFNP.
Just recently another NGO The Peace Parks Foundation reintroduced SWRs to Zinave NP in Mozambique, the original population in the south of the country was likely extirpated by hunters in colonial times, but SWRs were also reintroduced towards the end of Portuguese colonial rule, but were then extirpated by poachers during or following the country's civil war, their return should be important for their conservation, presuming PPF and the national parks authority ANAC can keep them safe from poachers.

‘The Political Reporter’ is a new media installation by Boone, NC-based artist Mark Nystrom that generates random, but intriguing statements with words found on political websites and in the media. Sources include the Obama and Romney presidential campaigns, the Democratic and Republican parties, bloggers and the news media.
‘The Political Reporter’ animates a cloud of letters and periodically makes statements. These images are screen grabs taken while ‘The Political Reporter’ was running on Election Day and the day after.
Letters from words gathered from conservative sources are colored red and ones from liberal sources are blue. ‘The Political Reporter’s’ vocabulary includes over 70,000 words, but only 300 appear on the screen at any given time. As words are used to make statements, they are replaced by randomly chosen new ones from the list of 70,000.
Shreyansh Jain
Managing Director, Sjain Ventures, Raipur
Turning Vision Into Reality
Nothing could dampen the spirits of the 17-year-old who wanted to open his company in spite of Indian laws disallowing it, due to age bar. His cousin joined hands with him and that’s how his first company Educell came into existence.
Reminisces Shreyansh, “The decision to get into education business was taken carefully by considering all the statistics and data available – 25 percent IITians join financial firms, 20-25 percent get into marketing, 20 percent into consulting, 20 percent into applied engineering and 5-7 percent get into core engineering. These calculations showed us the opportunities in entrepreneurship in the education sector. We realized that India has only a few premiere institutes and students of small towns are unable to reach them due to lack of proper mentoring.”
Through his series of books, his company minted great revenue in a very short span and Sjain series, that unveiled the strategies followed by top IITians, became an overnight success. A year later, Shreyansh opened a company called QEA Eduventure Private Limited.
The new firm started reaping rich dividends and his bank balance started swelling. Driven by the desire to excel in life, he diversified his business to launch DMS Infosystems Pvt. Ltd. at the age of 19 and then his media firm, Next Generation Media (NGM).
Transcending Barriers
The family, understandably, was not happy with Shreyansh’s choice to earn while he was studying. His father completed Ph.D. from IIT-Mumbai while his son was pursuing graduation, but he was far from supportive. Some of the partnerships, despite doing well in revenues, proved disempowering, so he has to start all over again with heavy liabilities.
