Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kenyan economy remains resilient amid a confluence of global, regional, environmental, and domestic political risks. These factors, including costly and uncertain international bond market access for frontier market economies in an environment of “higher for longer” global interest rates, are adding to Kenya’s balance of payments and fiscal financing needs despite policy efforts to sustain domestic and external balances. The authorities’ EFF/ECF-supported program, approved in April 2021 and extended by 10 months in July 2023 to April 2025, continues to evolve to address the emerging challenges, including to restore market confidence while incorporating additional policy actions to reduce debt vulnerabilities, a key objective of the program. The program also endeavors to bolster Kenya’s medium-term prospects by enhancing fiscal risk management, strengthening external buffers, and improving the governance framework.

Download or read book A case study on the ecosystem for local production of pharmaceuticals vaccines and biologicals written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2024-05-06 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Local Production and Assistance (LPA) Unit in the Regulation and Prequalification Department (RPQ), Access to Medicines and Health Products Division (MHP), World Health Organization (WHO), supports Member States, particularly low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), to strengthen sustainable local production and technology transfer to improve timely, equitable access to quality, safe and effective essential medical products. The LPA Unit provides assistance and support to Member States with an ecosystem-wide and holistic approach, such as fostering global coordination and partnerships, conducting ecosystem assessments for sustainable, quality local production, developing & implementing strategies/roadmaps, providing comprehensive capacity building and technical assistance, including for WHO Prequalification (PQ)/Emergency Use Listing (EUL), facilitating technology transfer (TT) and developing global resources on local production and TT. A landmark resolution (WHA74.6) on strengthening local production of medicines and other health technologies to improve access was adopted in the Seventy-fourth World Health Assembly, signalling globally the important role local production plays in improving access and strengthening health security. Within this mandate, the LPA Unit, developed a series of case studies on the ecosystem for local production of pharmaceuticals, vaccines and biologicals, with a focus on country context in the LMICs. These case studies add to the existing repository of resources on strengthening local production and technology transfer of health products for countries to leverage upon when countries embark in these areas. The countries in this series are Bangladesh, Kenya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Senegal and Tunisia. From July to September 2022, a series of interviews and consultative meetings, including a review of available literature, policies and other documents, and administration of a questionnaire, were performed. This case study is intended to report the collated information in areas such as available policies, initiatives, financing, regulatory system, patent protection system, research and development work, markets and capacity and preparedness to uptake local production of quality-assured pharmaceuticals, vaccines (including mRNA vaccines), and biologicals. The expectations and needs of these countries were also collected and included in the case study, along with proposed recommendations, for the reader to see various viewpoints towards strengthening sustainable local production and achieving universal health coverage and the Sustainable Development Goals.

This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores African domestic and regional responses and approaches to environmental protection and sustainability. Written by African experts, the collection consists of five parts covering the whole of Africa. It provides broad coverage of specific themes, including environmental constitutionalism, climate change, gender and the environment, wildlife trade, environmental justice, and human displacement. The key aims are first, to explore theoretical and empirical studies to interrogate and provide clarity on academic discourse on how and whether environmental human rights approaches and policy implications have effectively enhanced environmental protection and sustainability at African domestic levels. Second, to investigate and present innovative solutions on how African domestic legal regimes deal with environmental justice, natural resources governance, refugees’ environmental rights, and climate-induced displaced persons. Finally, to propose innovative legal and institutionalised solutions to Africa’s ecological realities by determining the legal and regulatory gaps on environmental human rights issues on the continent. The collection will be a valuable resource for researchers, academics, and policymakers in human rights law, environmental law, political science, ecology and conservation, environmental management, disaster management, and development studies.

Download or read book Access to Education and Health among Minority and Indigenous Communities in Kenya Assessment of Baringo Trans Nzoia Elgeyo Marakwet and Turkana Counties written by Geoffrey Kerosi and published by Minority Rights Group. This book was released on 2021-05-06 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study seeks to measure disparity in the enjoyment of health and education rights in Kenya, with a focus on minorities and indigenous peoples in Turkana, Elgeyo Marakwet, Trans-Nzoia and Baringo counties. It combines primary research with an analysis of Kenyan legislation, policies and regulations, alongside international standards that promote the rights to health and education. In particular, it examines Kenya’s system of raising revenues, especially through taxation, and whether resources allocated towards the health and education sector benefit the country’s most marginalized communities. While recognizing some improvements in recent years, Access to Education and Health among Minority and Indigenous Communities in Kenya: Assessment of Baringo, Trans-Nzoia, Elgeyo Marakwet and Turkana Counties also highlights the continued challenges that constrain equitable and inclusive provision for marginalized groups in many parts of the country. From underspending to infrastructure gaps, lack of trained personnel to limited engagement with civil society, it identifies a range of problems and concluded with a series of recommendations for local authorities and the national government to improve minority and indigenous access to these basic rights.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic bared the inadequacies in existing structures of public health and governance in most countries. This book provides a comparative analysis of policy approaches and planning adopted by federal governments across the globe to battle and adequately respond to the health emergency as well as the socio-economic fallouts of the pandemic. With twenty-four case studies from across the globe, the book critically analyzes responses to the public health crisis, its fiscal impact and management, as well as decision-making and collaboration between different levels of government of countries worldwide. It explores measures taken to contain the pandemic and to responsibly regulate and manage the health, socio-economic welfare, employment, and education of its people. The authors highlight the deficiencies in planning, tensions between state and local governments, politicization of the crisis, and the challenges of generating political consensus. They also examine effective approaches used to foster greater cooperation and learning for multi-level, polycentric innovation in pandemic governance. One of the first books on federalism and approaches to the COVID-19 pandemic, this volume is an indispensable reference for scholars and researchers of comparative federalism, comparative politics, development studies, political science, public policy and governance, health and wellbeing, and political sociology.
