The village of Ogossagou is located 144 kilometres from the town of Sévaré in the Mopti region of central Mali. Ogossagou has been the site of two massacres between local ethnic groups in the space of two years, resulting in numerous casualties. For the last two years peacekeepers from Senegal serving with the Quick Reaction Force (QRF) of the United Nations Multidimensional Integrated Stabilization Mission in Mali (MINUSMA) has secured a temporary operational base (TOB) in the village. The village of Ogossagou is difficult to access by land due to the security situation, terrorist attacks and Improvised Explosive Device (IED), and to the isolation of the village. Recently calm has returned to Ogossagou with the signing of local agreements between the two communities.

2024 marks the 30th observance of the genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, one of the darkest chapters in human history. More than one million people – overwhelmingly Tutsi, but also Hutu and others who opposed the genocide – were systematically killed in less than three months.

Sheep graze on the lawn of the Palais des Nations, the United Nations Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, as part of an environmentally-friendly tradition held every year in October and November. The sheep's grazing allows for the lawn to be naturally cut and for other organic maintenance work to be done.

Headline Land Reclamation Project in Hokkaido

Caption Description Members of a family relaxing in the living-room of their newly-built home on a land development project in the Hokkaido region. Under the project, which was initiated in 1956 by the Agricultural Land Development Machinery Public Corporation, some 27,730 acres of former wastelands in the Konsen Plains and in the Ishikari River Valley are being converted into dairy farmlands.
The standard ranch dwellings provided by the Corporation consist of 540 sq. ft. of living quarters and 1080 sq. ft. of barn area. Settlers are free to design the interiors to meet their particular needs. The project is expected to be completed in 1963 when some 800 families will have been settled on the reclaimed land. The International Bank loaned $4.3 million to finance importation of dairy cattle and of farming equipment.
