This book was released on 2004 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores the appropriateness of health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for the countries of the Europe and Central Asia region, and the implications for policy choices at the regional, subregional and country levels. Findings include that, for the region as a whole, proportionately more gains in life expectancy would accrue from the control of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) than from achieving the targets in the classic MDGs. Other issues highlighted include the importance of reducing morbidity and premature mortality from NCDs and external causes across the entire region; and the need to focus on the classic MDG indicators (infant mortality rates, under-five mortality rates and maternal mortality ratios) in the countries of Central Asia and the Caucasus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews the status of the 28 countries of Europe and Central Asia (ECA) with respect to the environmental Millennium Development Goal (MDG). The aim of this goal is to 'ensure environmental sustainability,' which is elaborated by a set of three targets and eight indicators. The indicators for the environment MDG are important not only as measures of environmental sustainability, but also as contributors to the health and poverty goals. In ECA, these linkages are clearly brought out for the water supply and sanitation indicators, but also apply to the carbon reduction, forestry and biodiversity indicators. The three targets and its indicator are: (i) halve, by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation: (a) proportion of population with sustainable access to an improved water source; and (b) proportion of population with access to basic sanitation; (ii) integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programs and reverse the losses of environmental resources: (a) energy use (kg oil equivalent) per $1 GDP(Purchasing Power Parity(PPP)); (b) carbon dioxide emissions (per capita); (c) proportion of land area covered by forest; (d) ratio of area protected to maintain biological diversity to surface area; and (e) proportion of population using solid fuels; (iii) by 2020 to have achieved a significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers: (a) proportion of households with access to secure tenure.

Download or read book Golden Aging written by Maurizio Bussolo and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compared to other regions, Europe and Central Asia are by far the oldest. Moreover, population aging is set to accelerate further over the coming decades as large segments turn old. Additionally, some countries such as Russia and certain Eastern European countries are facing a shrinkage of their population. Against this backdrop, this report investigates what stands in the way of societies reaping the full benefits of increased longevity--that is, longer lives and potentially prolonged payoffs from human capital--and what can help to mitigate the possible negative impacts of a smaller and older workforce. Beginning with a focus on demographic trends, the report puts the rapid decline in fertility and contrasting migration trends in the region in a historical perspective and looks forward to the varying paths that population change may follow in the region. Next, it examines the evidence on the likely impact of demographic change on growth and savings, the labor force, firm and economy-wide innovation, poverty and inequality, and intergenerational solidarity. Finally, the report goes beyond diagnostics and puts an emphasis on what we know regarding successful policy interventions, presenting evidence on what has and has not worked in the past.--Publisher description.
