Book Description
La première édition de l’aperçu régional de l’insécurité alimentaire dans la région du Proche-Orient et de l’Afrique du Nord (NENA) lancée en 2015, a dressé le bilan des progrès accomplis par la région visant à la réalisation des objectifs du Millénaire pour le développement (OMD). Cette deuxième édition de l’aperçu régional coïncide avec l’adoption de l’agenda sur le développement durable, des dix-sept objectifs de développement durable (ODDs) et l’accord sur le changement climatique conclu à la 21ème session de la Conférence des Parties (COP21) à Paris.

Book Description
L’Aperçu régional de la sécurité alimentaire et de la nutrition au Proche-Orient et en Afrique du Nord fournit de nouvelles données qui permettent de surveiller les tendances de la sécurité alimentaire et de la nutrition dans le cadre du Programme de développement durable à l'horizon 2030. L’analyse approfondie des progrès réalisés dans l'objectif de développement durable 2, cible 2.1 (éliminer la faim et garantir l’accès de tous à la nourriture) et cible 2.2 (éliminer toutes les formes de malnutrition), ainsi que l’état des carences en micronutriments, est complétée par une révision des politiques de transformation rurale visant à faire face aux problèmes d’insécurité alimentaire et de nutrition. Les estimations mises à jour indiquent que la situation de la sécurité alimentaire dans la région continue de se dégrader depuis 2011-2013. Au Proche-Orient et en Afrique du Nord, 11% de la population de la région, soit 50,2 millions d’individus, est sous-alimentée. Les conclusions du rapport ont montré que l’impossibilité de réduire la faim dans la région est étroitement liée à la multiplication des conflits et de la violence dans plusieurs zones de la région, comme le soulignait également l’édition de l’année dernière. Alors que la prévalence de la sous-alimentation est passée de 23% à 26% dans les pays en conflit depuis 2011-2013, elle est restée stable à environ 5% dans les pays non en conflit. Le rapport de cette année explore davantage la relation entre insécurité alimentaire, croissance économique et transformation rurale. Il dévoile que la croissance économique dans la région du Proche-Orient et de l’Afrique du Nord (NENA) a été lente par rapport à d’autres régions et suggère que la transformation rurale peut améliorer les taux de croissance et créer des emplois décents en renforçant les liens entre zones rurales et urbaines, en améliorant la productivité agricole et en développant l’économie rurale non agricole.

Book Description
The 2018 FAO-OIE-WHO (Tripartite) zoonoses guide, “Taking A Multisectoral, One Health Approach: A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries” (2018 TZG) is being jointly developed to provide member countries with practical guidance on OH approaches to build national mechanisms for multisectoral coordination, communication, and collaboration to address zoonotic disease threats at the animal-human-environment interface. The 2018 TZG updates and expands on the guidance in the one previous jointly-developed, zoonoses-specific guidance document: the 2008 Tripartite “Zoonotic Diseases: A Guide to Establishing Collaboration between Animal and Human Health Sectors at the Country Level”, developed in WHO South-East Asia Region and Western Pacific Region. The 2018 TZG supports building by countries of the resilience and capacity to address emerging and endemic zoonotic diseases such as avian influenza, rabies, Ebola, and Rift Valley fever, as well as food-borne diseases and antimicrobial resistance, and to minimize their impacts on health, livelihoods, and economies. It additionally supports country efforts to implement WHO International Health Regulations (2005) and OIE international standards, to address gaps identified through external and internal health system evaluations, and to achieve targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. The 2018 TZG provides relevant country ministries and agencies with lessons learned and good practices identified from country-level experiences in taking OH approaches for preparedness, prevention, detection and response to zoonotic disease threats, and provides guidance on multisectoral communication, coordination, and collaboration. It informs on regional and country-level OH activities and relevant unisectoral and multisectoral tools available for countries to use.

Book Description
This book has been published by Allenvi (French National Alliance for Environmental Research) to coincide with the 22nd Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) in Marrakesh. It is the outcome of work by academic researchers on both sides of the Mediterranean and provides a remarkable scientific review of the mechanisms of climate change and its impacts on the environment, the economy, health and Mediterranean societies. It will also be valuable in developing responses that draw on “scientific evidence” to address the issues of adaptation, resource conservation, solutions and risk prevention. Reflecting the full complexity of the Mediterranean environment, the book is a major scientific contribution to the climate issue, where various scientific considerations converge to break down the boundaries between disciplines.

Book Description
Trade can dramatically improve women’s lives, creating new jobs, enhancing consumer choices, and increasing women’s bargaining power in society. It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, Women and Trade: The Role of Trade in Promoting Gender Equality aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women.

Book Description
Inclusion and Resilience has two broad objectives. The study seeks first to enhance knowledge about the current state of existing social safety nets (SSNs) in the Middle East and North Africa, assessing their effectiveness by bringing together new evidence, data, and country-specific analysis. Second, it proposes an open and informed debate on feasible policy options for making SSNs more effective and responsive to the population's needs. In order to do this, the authors illustrate how the main goals for SSNs-promoting social inclusion, better livelihood, and resilience to shocks-have already been achieved in some parts of the region, notwithstanding huge challenges. They also identify the groups that regional SSNs should make a priority: children and people living in rural and lagging areas. The study relies on newly collected data on citizens' preferences concerning redistribution and SSN design, discussing how political economy considerations could be taken into account in designing better SSNs, and proposing an agenda for reform, using global experiences and the new evidence presented in the book itself.

Book Description
Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.
