Local population needs and large-scale hydrological projects in Ajrica. — Large scale hydro-electric dams and reservoirs on major African rivers have multiplied in the past twenty years. These often disrupt the ecology of vast regions and sometimes cause enormous displacement of entire populations. Strategies used in national resettlement policies are often authoritarian and "modernist" in character and seldom respond to the needs and aspirations of people who have been subjected to involuntary evacuation.
