Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although El Salvador has recorded impressive overall economic growth in the 1990s, during this period, agricultural growth has lagged considerably below the rest of the economy, which raises concerns about the long-run capacity of the sector to raise incomes and employment in rural areas and contribute to overall growth. The main objectives of this sector review are twofold: to develop a strategy to revitalize the agricultural sector and realize its full potential for efficient and sustainable growth by enhancing competitiveness; and to present the main findings of the analysis of rural poverty and develop its implications for the design of a strategy for poverty alleviation.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In global conservation, biological corridors have been designed and promoted widely as a model capable of achieving both biodiversity conservation and sustainable development goals. As the smallest and most densely populated country in Central America lying at the heart of the Mesoamerican biodiversity hotspot, El Salvador presents a unique case study of corridors because of its rich biodiversity and highly human-modified landscapes. With rapid urbanization, agricultural development, and other anthropogenic pressures continuing to exacerbate habitat fragmentation and biodiversity loss, corridors have been adopted into the countrys environmental agenda on national and subnational scales, drawing from legacies of the former multinational Mesoamerican Biological Corridor project. The research presented in this thesis examines historic and present discourses and design of corridors in El Salvador in an attempt to deconstruct the motivations, priorities, and challenges behind this particular approach to integrated landscape management. Combining findings from key informant interviews and detailed document and policy analysis, the research reveals a discourse surrounding corridors that constructs them as objects both embedded in and comprised of a mosaic of diverse land uses, tailored to enhance landscape connectivity through biodiversity-friendly land use practices. However, despite a recognition of the social and ecological potential of corridors, as well as numerous funded project proposals, implementation of corridors has been largely ineffective on the ground. Moreover, corridors have lost their former resonance, eclipsed by landscape restoration as the focus of national environmental policy, a framing which places more explicit emphasis on climate change mitigation and adaptation. While landscape restoration has much in common with the integrated approach embodied by corridors, it evokes a different spatial imaginary with important implications for conservation priority-setting, distribution of resources, and the promotion of land use alternatives. In elucidating challenges to the adoption of corridors and other analogous landscape-level management approaches, the research informs future conservation and development programs in El Salvador as well as the wider Mesoamerican region.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report addresses the issue of what publicly-supported programs and external assistance from the Bank and other agencies can do to accelerate attainment of targets such as reducing infant mortality by two-thirds. The evidence presented here relates to Bangladesh, a country which has made spectacular progress but needs to maintain momentum in order to achieve its own poverty reduction goals. The report addresses the following issues:(1) What has happened to child health and nutrition outcomes and fertility in Bangladesh since 1990? Are the poor sharing in the progress which is being made? (
Download or read book Handbook of Sustainable Development and Leisure Services written by Adrian Lubowiecki-Vikuk and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-01-16 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews empirical and theoretical research on sustainable development in the context of leisure management for communities. Although leading research centers are pursuing interdisciplinary research on leisure in the context of sustainable development, there are still few papers that holistically address the current challenges in this area. In addition, demographic changes have made the promotion of a healthy lifestyle essential. Doing so requires responsible behavior on the part of various stakeholders in this market. This book fills an important gap in the literature and gathers contributions from an interdisciplinary and international team of authors, whose fields of expertise include human geography, management, intersections of sustainability and leisure, behavioral psychology and tourism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication evaluates the performance of the World Bank Group (WBG) during the 1990s in promoting private sector development in the electric power sector in 80 countries. Main findings include that where countries showed a commitment to advancing reforms in promoting private sector development and where programmes were properly implemented, the expected benefits were delivered. However, quality of outcomes depended on the objectives pursued and on types of assistance provided, with most countries remaining in the early stages of reform.
