This book was released on 2023-05-04 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le présent rapport cherche à inspirer une réflexion et des mesures stratégiques visant à transformer les systèmes agroalimentaires pour les rendre plus durables, plus résilients et plus inclusifs à l’avenir. Il fait fond sur les deux précédents rapports de la série ainsi que sur un exercice complet de prospective stratégique qui a également éclairé l’élaboration du Cadre stratégique 2022-2031 de la FAO. Il analyse les principaux moteurs des systèmes agroalimentaires et examine les façons dont les évolutions de ces moteurs pourraient déterminer différents scénarios possibles pour l’avenir des systèmes agroalimentaires, socioéconomiques et environnementaux. Le message fondamental véhiculé par le rapport est qu’il est encore possible de faire progresser les systèmes agroalimentaires vers la durabilité et la résilience si les «déclencheurs» clés de la transformation sont correctement activés. Toutefois, les orientations stratégiques qui devront être suivies à cette fin nécessiteront de ne pas se laisser piéger par les intérêts particuliers ni les intentions cachées, de concilier des objectifs divergents et d’abandonner les réalisations à court terme non pérennes au profit de la durabilité, de la résilience et de l’inclusion à plus long terme.

Book excerpt: Le recueil de 15 bonnes pratiques, publié dans le cadre du Programme conjoint sur les approches transformatives sensibles au genre pour la sécurité alimentaire et la nutrition, présente des méthodes qui ont donné de bons résultats dans différents contextes. Il met en évidence les bonnes pratiques et les expériences qui contribuent à susciter des changements positifs et profonds en matière de genre, au service de la sécurité alimentaire, d’une meilleure nutrition et d’une agriculture durable. Ce recueil contient des conseils sur l’application de ces approches dans toute institution qui œuvre dans le secteur agricole et les zones rurales. Il est le fruit des contributions d’organisations très diverses qui appliquent activement ces pratiques dans les domaines de l’agriculture et du développement rural. Les approches présentées dans le recueil peuvent être mises en œuvre à différents niveaux: individuel, de la famille ou du ménage, du groupe ou de la communauté, ou encore au niveau institutionnel en partenariat avec des organisations non gouvernementales, des organisations de la société civile locales et/ou des administrations locales et des districts. Le recueil compte quatre objectifs: (i) faire le bilan et tirer les enseignements de l’application des approches existantes; (ii) servir de ressource aux organismes qui emploient déjà ces approches, afin de les aider à repérer les possibilités de renforcer leurs activités dans ce domaine ou à les relier à des interventions complémentaires; (iii) fournir des conseils sur la manière d’appliquer ces approches dans toute organisation ou institution qui s’emploie à améliorer la sécurité alimentaire, la nutrition et l’agriculture durable; (iv) faire mieux connaître et promouvoir ces approches, grâce à des exemples de bonnes pratiques ou d’initiatives réussies qui contribuent à des changements positifs, liés ou non à la question du genre, dans les domaines de la sécurité alimentaire, de la nutrition ainsi que de l’agriculture et du développement rural durables.

Download or read book Mother Earth Mother Africa and Mission written by Seblewengel Daniel and published by African Sun Media. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume is significant in bringing together voices of African women theologians and their allies on the urgent topic of ecology. First, it decisively intervenes into scholarly discourses on ecofeminism by highlighting the reflections of African women scholars and African women as subjects. This function of the volume is very important both at local and global levels. Second, it contributes to contextualizing of scriptural interpretation around the issue of ecology. Biblical reflection occurs throughout the volume and is put into dialogue with African traditions, with ecofeminism, with Africa-based mission projects, and with the current crisis of sustainability and African women’s roles in protecting the earth. Third, the volume includes several concrete case studies based on interviews and grassroots qualitative research, as well as especially original articles that integrate biblical exegesis of Genesis with reflections on patriarchal legal systems in Botswana, and an original take on “male headship” in relation to ecofeminism. – Professor Dana L. Robert, Boston University, USA
Download or read book Transforming food and agriculture to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals SDGs written by Ghosh, K., Braun, G. and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2020-05-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This knowledge product is a compilation of good practices identified from the ex-post analysis of eleven FAO–GEF partnership projects. The projects were implemented across the world from 2011 to 2019 and are representative of the first generation of FAO-GEF projects. The broad objective of the FAO-GEF partnership is to help countries transform their food systems to improve land conditions, conserve biodiversity, and build their resilience to impacts of climate change while providing a healthy and nutritious diet for everyone. This partnership addresses a diverse range of topics, such as land, watershed and ecosystem management, biodiversity conservation, climate change mitigation and adaptation, disposal of agrochemicals, and marine and fisheries resource management. These good practices are in line with several actions detailed in "Transforming food and agriculture to achieve the SDGs: 20 interconnected actions to guide decision-makers (20 Actions Guidelines)". Like the 20 Actions Guidelines, these good practices aim to support decision-makers and stakeholders in their efforts to mainstream sustainable food and agriculture to drive progress towards the SDGs. Their application across these projects also demonstrates that the guidelines can be successfully translated on the ground.
Download or read book Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research written by Aditya Johri and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-02-10 with total page 1124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Handbook of Engineering Education Research is the critical reference source for the growing field of engineering education research, featuring the work of world luminaries writing to define and inform this emerging field. The Handbook draws extensively on contemporary research in the learning sciences, examining how technology affects learners and learning environments, and the role of social context in learning. Since a landmark issue of the Journal of Engineering Education (2005), in which senior scholars argued for a stronger theoretical and empirically driven agenda, engineering education has quickly emerged as a research-driven field increasing in both theoretical and empirical work drawing on many social science disciplines, disciplinary engineering knowledge, and computing. The Handbook is based on the research agenda from a series of interdisciplinary colloquia funded by the US National Science Foundation and published in the Journal of Engineering Education in October 2006.

Download or read book Faecal Sludge Management written by Linda Strande and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is estimated that literally billions of residents in urban and peri-urban areas of Africa, Asia, and Latin America are served by onsite sanitation systems (e.g. various types of latrines and septic tanks). Until recently, the management of faecal sludge from these onsite systems has been grossly neglected, partially as a result of them being considered temporary solutions until sewer-based systems could be implemented. However, the perception of onsite or decentralized sanitation technologies for urban areas is gradually changing, and is increasingly being considered as long-term, sustainable options in urban areas, especially in low- and middle-income countries that lack sewer infrastructures. This is the first book dedicated to faecal sludge management. It compiles the current state of knowledge of the rapidly evolving field of faecal sludge management, and presents an integrated approach that includes technology, management, and planning based on Sandecs 20 years of experience in the field. Faecal Sludge Management: Systems Approach for Implementation and Operation addresses the organization of the entire faecal sludge management service chain, from the collection and transport of sludge, and the current state of knowledge of treatment options, to the final end use or disposal of treated sludge. The book also presents important factors to consider when evaluating and upscaling new treatment technology options. The book is designed for undergraduate and graduate students, and engineers and practitioners in the field who have some basic knowledge of environmental and/or wastewater engineering.
