Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article tries to bring some clarity to the dynamics of current Tanzanian politics that led to the sudden withdrawal of the country from the voluntary commitment to be a Comprehensive Refugee Response Framework (CRRF) roll-out country and, through this, an international forerunner in the application of the new comprehensive and multi-stakeholder approach embedded in the `New Way of Working. Specifically, the article will look into the possible underlying factors behind the decision to retreat from the application of the CRRF and highlight the potential implications of this course of action. Finally, in light of the above, the article will discuss lessons learned that could inform the implementation of the CRRF in other roll-out countries and suggest possible ways forward on how to strategically work with durable solutions in Tanzania beyond the option of voluntary repatriation.

Academics on the Move : Mobility and Institutional Change in the Swedish Development Support to Research Capacity Building in Mozambique
- 2013
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In the competitive global knowledge economy, highly qualified individuals are increasingly recognised as being the key to development. In particular, doctorate holders are not only the most qualified in terms of educational attainment, but also those specifically trained to be at the forefront of innovation and in a position to drive advances in science, technology and knowledge of society. In developing countries with relatively weak research structures, not least with regard to PhD graduates, the training of PhDs has been intimately linked to the reproduction of human capacity in national research systems. This study examines the mobility of PhD graduates funded under the Swedish development aid program to build institutional research capacity in Mozambique from 1990 to 2013. Principal areas of investigation are extent and direction of geographic, sectoral and vertical mobility, perception and individual rationales for mobility and career choices and experience of the so-called "sandwich model".

Prolonged Exile in Relative Isolation : Long-term Consequences of Contrasting Refugee Policies in Tanzania
- 2003
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The question at issue in this work has been stimulated by the past decade's shifts in the field of refugee-hosting. An important element of these changes is the consideration of repatriation as the only durable solution. In many African refugee-receiving states this shift has meant the abandonment of integrative policies in favor of temporary, repatriation-oriented strategies. This development has, however, revealed itself to at odds with nature of many exile situations in Africa, which tend to be prolonged affairs. Persistent political unrest in many African states means that a large number of refugeesare consigned to a long stay in the country of exile.This work examines the problem of long-term exile as it relates to the application of two hosting policies (Organized rural settlement and Assisted temporary camp) In Tanzania representing contrasting views on the problem of refugees. The research takes a standpoint in the current refugee political climate of changed displacement patterns and growing restrictionism and seeks to describe and analyze existing conventional perspectives and policies on the problem of refugees. With this as a point of departure, the study examines empirically the implementation and long-term effects of the hosting policies concerned. The central issue here is the meeting between two premises, duration of exile and applied hosting policy. Specifically, the study looks into: (i) material quality of life and services; (ii) economic conditions; (iii) political and legal conditions; (iv) the provision of education; and, of greatest concern in this study, (v) refugees' long-term adjustment: their economic, political and social integration into the host society and (vi) future perspectives. In the light of the tendency of more extended refugee situations the study argues that the current application of hosting policies in Tanzania does not contain a tuning to the consequences of a prolonged hosting undertaking, but calls for more dynamic and long-term perspectives.
