Do information communication technologies (ICTs) support self-reliance among urban refugees? Evidence from Kuala Lumpur and Penang, Malaysia

Organizations working with refugees are increasingly using information communication technologies (ICTs) in their work. While there is a rich literature in the field of media and communications studies exploring how refugees use ICTs to meet their social and economic needs, this article focuses on whether and how refugees’ ICT use maps onto the policy concept of refugee self-reliance, focusing on the economic, educational, administrative, health, and security/protection domains of self-reliance in informal urban settings. Building on the literature on refugees’ ICT use, we use semi-structured interviews with urban refugees in Malaysia to understand how they use technology in their daily lives and whether these refugees’ digital practices support self-reliance. We also interviewed practitioners from the Malaysian United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees office and non-governmental organization (NGO) sectors to better understand such institutions’ strategies for using ICTs to deliver economic, educational, administrative, health, and protection programs in local refugee communities. Our findings are twofold: refugees’ use of ICTs represented idiosyncratic ways of achieving self-reliance, but when institutions tried to implement ICT solutions to support refugee self-reliance at a population level, refugees either did not use these ICT solutions or were critical of the institutional solutions. The findings presented here have import for not only research on refugee self-reliance and ICTs but also the wider migration field, as organizations, such as the International Organization for Migration and national immigration authorities, integrate ICTs into processes that affect migrants’ and displaced peoples’ economic, social, and political inclusion in cities of arrival.

Les causes de l'accident de circulation à Dassa (gouvernement)

24 Heures au Bénin - Wed, 02/01/2023 - 16:39

Les causes de l'accident de circulation à Dassa-Zoumè ont été révélées en Conseil des ministres ce mercredi 1er février 2023.

Survenu à la hauteur du village d'enfants SOS de Dassa-Zoumé, l'accident de circulation s'est soldé par 20 personnes décédées dont 19 calcinées et une en raison de brûlures au troisième degré. 24 personnes sont victimes de blessures de gravité variable. D'importants dégâts matériels ont été relevés. Selon le Conseil des ministres, l'accident a été occasionné par un bus de transport en commun en provenance de Parakou vers Cotonou, avec à son bord 45 passagers d'une part et un camion grue transportant un groupe électrogène d'autre part.

« Il ressort du compte-rendu, qu'à la hauteur de ce village d'enfants, le conducteur du bus en aurait perdu le contrôle suite à l'éclatement du pneu avant côté chauffeur. Le véhicule déséquilibré de ce fait, aurait dans sa course, percuté le camion grue qui roulait en sens inverse, s'est immobilisé en pleine chaussée et a pris feu. Le camion ainsi percuté, sous l'effet du choc, s'est renversé dans le ravin et a été contaminé par les flammes », informe le Conseil des ministres.

Selon le gouvernement « les premiers éléments d'analyse postulent, en considérant le lieu de l'accident, en pleine agglomération, que le bus roulait à vive allure ». La même source signale que « le conducteur de ce bus avait été verbalisé ce même jour à la sortie de Parakou, par la Police républicaine, pour excès de vitesse ».

Les rescapés de l'accident ont été conduits à l'hôpital de zone de Dassa-Zoumè pour les soins d'urgence appropriés. Les cas les plus graves ont été immédiatement transférés vers les unités de traitement des brûlés et de réanimation à Cotonou et à Abomey-Calavi pour une meilleure couverture en soins entièrement à la charge de l'Etat.
