Book Description
Aquatic agricultural systems (AAS) are places where farming and fishing in freshwater and/or ÿcoastal ecosystems contribute significantly to household income and food security. Globally, the ÿlivelihoods of many poor and vulnerable people are dependent on these systems. In recognition ÿof the importance of AAS, the CGIAR Research Program (CRP) is undertaking a new generation ÿof global agricultural research programs on key issues affecting global food security and rural ÿdevelopment. The overall goal of the research program is to improve the well-being of people ÿdependent on these systems. Solomon Islands is one of five priority countries in the AAS program, ÿled by WorldFish. In Solomon Islands, the AAS program operates in the Malaita Hub (Malaita ÿProvince) and the Western Hub (Western Province). This program and its scoping activities are ÿsummarized in this report.ÿ

Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health Situation Analysis for Solomon Islands
Learning from the lagoon: Research in development in Solomon Islands
Author: van der Ploeg, J.
Publisher: WorldFish
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 44
Book Description
A major challenge for international agricultural research is to find ways to improve the nutrition and incomes of people left behind by the Green Revolution. To better address the needs of the most marginal and vulnerable people, the CGIAR Research Program on Aquatic Agricultural Systems (AAS) developed the research-in-development (RinD) approach. In 2012, WorldFish started to implement RinD in Solomon Islands. By building people’s capacity to analyze and address development problems, actively engaging relevant stakeholders, and linking research to these processes, RinD aims to develop an alternative approach to addressing hunger and poverty. This report describes the key principles and implementation process, and assesses the emergent outcomes of this participatory, systems-oriented and transformative research approach in Solomon Islands.

ISBN: 9290618469
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
Target 5A of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) was to reduce maternal deaths by 75% between 1990 and 2015. The Maternal Mortality Estimation Inter-Agency Group comprising the World Health Organization (WHO) the United Nations Children?s Fund (UNICEF) the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) the World Bank Group and the United Nations Population Division assessed the 95 countries with an MMR higher than 100 in 1990. The report notes Cambodia the Lao People?s Democratic Republic and Mongolia have achieved this target in the Western Pacific Region. However maternal mortality remains higher than the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target in five countries in the Region. WHO has developed evidence-based maternal health recommendations for reducing maternal mortality and morbidity. This review compares national guidelines and protocols implementation and health system standards to WHO recommendations for eight countries that account for 96% of maternal deaths in the Western Pacific Region.

Statebuilding and State Formation in the Western Pacific
Author: Matthew Allen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131546375X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
This book provides a rigorous and cross-disciplinary analysis of this Melanesian nation at a critical juncture in its post-colonial and post-conflict history, with contributions from leading scholars of Solomon Islands. The notion of ‘transition’ as used to describe the recent drawdown of the decade-long Regional Assistance Mission to Solomon Islands (RAMSI) provides a departure point for considering other transformations – social, political and economic –under way in the archipelagic nation. Organised around a central tension between change and continuity, two of the book’s key themes are the contested narratives of changing state–society relations and the changing social relations around land and natural resources engendered by ongoing processes of globalisation and urbanisation. Drawing heuristically on RAMSI’s genesis in the ‘state- building moment’ that dominated international relations during the first decade of this century, the book also examines the critical distinction between ‘state-building’ and ‘state formation’ in the Solomon Islands context. It engages with global scholarly and policy debates on issues such as peacebuilding, state-building, legal pluralism, hybrid governance, globalisation, urbanisation and the governance of natural resources. These themes resonate well beyond Solomon Islands and Melanesia, and the book will be of interest to a wide range of students, scholars and development practitioners. This book was previously published as a special issue of The Journal of Pacific History.
