The Impact of Directive 2009/28/EC on Energy Security and Agricultural Development in GhanaPreuss, David January 2012 (has links)
The growing demand for biofuels in the European Union is expected to have a significant impact on rural environments in sub-Saharan Africa. In the wake of Directive 2009/28/EC, Ghana experienced a rapid rise in foreign land acquisitions and direct investments to its agricultural sector. The potential implications of this development are multi-fold: While proponents of the EU biofuels policy stress the potential for agricultural development and improved energy security in the region, its opponents criticise the lack of binding rules and regulations concerning social sustainability and indirect land use changes. As a means of assessing the validity of these opposing views, this research paper provides an analysis of the directive's impact on Ghanaian energy security and agricultural development in the country. The analysis is based on key informant interviews and a comprehensive literature reviews. It is concluded that the potential of host countries to generate benefits from the cultivation of energy crops largely rests on their institutional framework. In Ghana, foreign biofuel investments appear to have at least partially resulted in negative socio-economic impacts on local rural communities. Formal and informal land rights, as well as land acquisition procedures present significant obstacles. Civil action and the proposal for a new national biofuels policy indicate, however, that the country could eventually emerge as a beneficiary of the global trend towards biofuels.

Laws of investment and environmental protection : the case of Ethiopian largescale agricultureTesfaye Abate Abebe 21 August 2018 (has links)
A contradiction between the Ethiopian law of investment and environmental law is prevalent
since law of investment promotes development while environmental law protects the
environment. The thesis investigates the general legal issue: How do the investment and
environmental laws of Ethiopia promote large-scale agricultural development without adversely
affecting the environment? In the research, comparative legal research methodology is
employed: comparison is made between the internationally accepted principles of large-scale
agricultural investment and Ethiopian laws; the laws and experiences of Brazil and South Africa
are showed that law of sustainable large-scale agricultural investment is vital to promote
agricultural development and protect the environment. International law on investment and
environment are also considered. International legal principles of solving the contradiction
between environmental law and investment law are analysed. Legal and document analysis of
Ethiopian laws, policies and government documents have been made. Interviews have been
made, data through questionnaires have been collected and analysed, and 12 large-scale
agricultural investment farms have been observed and critically analysed. The thesis identified
that law of large-scale agricultural investment promotes development while Ethiopian
environmental law protects the environment. The law has a role in promoting large-scale
agricultural development by recognising the right to development and providing incentives and
creating conducive environment. Thus, the law should be used to promote both the right to
development and environmental protection. The nexus between investment law and
environmental law should be strengthening. It is identified that the law of sustainable large-scale
agricultural development could protect the environment while promoting large-scale agricultural
development. The thesis identified the Ethiopian law and the practices do not promote
sustainable large-scale agricultural development. Thus, it is recommended that precautionary
principle, like EIA should be made a requirement for large-scale agricultural investment, implementing efficiently and effectively the large-scale agricultural law principles, and laws to
achieve sustainable large-scale agriculture. / Public, Constitutional and International Law / LL. D.
