Abstract Many rural households in the developing world are subject to chronic seasonal food insecurity. Often cited among coping strategies is foraging for wild foods. This study was to understand the role of wild food in household food security in Timor-Leste. Information on wild food use comes from three sources: a) a longitudinal study of food consumption among 14 subsistence farmer households across four districts in 2006-2007; b) a survey in 2011 of 1,800 farmer households across all 13 districts in Timor-Leste; and c) a survey of 64 households from eight community seed groups in three districts in 2013. The consumption of wild food fluctuated widely across the year with consumption much reduced in the wet season (December -April) compared to the dry season (May -November). Wild food use in a normal year -2006-2007 and a fooddeficit year -2011, characterized by a severe hungry season, were compared.

This paper examines the political project of using cultural performance to build an alternative identity. Ap and Kapissa documented and rearranged traditional music and dances, Irianised foreign music and drew on local metaphors and meanings in new compositions. Ap's evocative music and his status as national martyr provide inspiration to West Papuans in exile and in the homeland Irian Jaya.

Ethnographic research among Hazara refugees from Central Afghanistan living on temporary protection visas, reveals the mobile phone to be fundamental to restoring their lives afIer detention. Hazara have made use of their mobile phones to establish a point of contact, get their bearings, and reposition themselves at the locus of their own new social networks. This article explores the affecI of mobile phone use in a situation of temporary protection, in terms of a rubric of resilience. , .
