    Emerging Non-state Actors in Global Development: Challenges for Europe

    Get PDF
    As part of the broader research programme on how 'new actors in international development' might influence European development cooperation in the coming decade, this paper provides an overview of the engagement of three types of non-state development actors: private foundations, corporate philanthropies, and global vertical programmes. In discussing financial commitments, funding priorities, and implementation approaches of these actors, the paper identifies key issues for European donors to consider in developing a response to their growing presence in the development landscape

    Civil Society Monitoring Report 2012

    Get PDF
    TUSEV published the first Civil Society Monitoring Report in 2011 in order to more closely observe and evaluate developments in the area of civil society. The purposes of this report are for civil society to be recognized, better understood and bring awareness to challenges faced, as well as portraying developments over the past ten years. We believe that the favorable assessment of the Civil Society Monitoring Report by the representatives of civil society and the various institutions in the international arena is a significant progress. The Civil Society Monitoring Report 2012 presents the developments and achievements in the area of civil society, as well as the shortcomings and difficulties observed in practice within the period of 2011-2012. Also, the report compares findings of this year with the previous year

    One Health in food safety and security education: Subject matter outline for a curricular framework.

    Get PDF
    Educating students in the range of subjects encompassing food safety and security as approached from a One Health perspective requires consideration of a variety of different disciplines and the interrelationships among disciplines. The Western Institute for Food Safety and Security developed a subject matter outline to accompany a previously published One Health in food safety and security curricular framework. The subject matter covered in this outline encompasses a variety of topics and disciplines related to food safety and security including effects of food production on the environment. This subject matter outline should help guide curriculum development and education in One Health in food safety and security and provides useful information for educators, researchers, students, and public policy-makers facing the inherent challenges of maintaining and/or developing safe and secure food supplies without destroying Earth's natural resources

    This article contains an attempt to summarize experience in the design of vibro-isolated foundations for installations with structurally balanced rotating parts, which include gas turbine units. Also, definition of “structure under control” is given and the need for its use for solving this class of problems. Actual problems of the calculation of the “machine — foundation — base” system is defined. The basic approaches to the solution of problem to select vibro-isolation of gas turbine unit foundation as an example of design in the ever-frost conditions are described.В данной статье приведена попытка обобщения опыта проектирования виброизолированных фундаментов под установки с конструктивно уравновешенными вращающимися частями, к которым относятся газотурбинные установки. Дано понятие управляемой конструкции и необходимости ее использования для решения данного круга задач. Определены актуальные проблемы расчетного анализа системы «машина — фундамент — основание». Описаны основные подходы к решению задачи по выбору виброизоляции фундамента газотурбинной установки на примере проектирования в условиях вечной мерзлоты

    Is the Water Sector Lagging behind Education and Health on Aid Effectiveness? Lessons from Bangladesh, Ethiopia and Uganda

    Get PDF
    A study in three countries (Bangladesh, Ethiopia and Uganda) assessed progress against the Paris Principles for Aid Effectiveness (AE) in three sectors – water, health and education – to test the assumption that the water sector is lagging behind. The findings show that it is too simplistic to say that the water sector is lagging, although this may well be the case in some countries. The study found that wider governance issues are more important for AE than having in place sector-specific mechanics such as Sector-Wide Approaches alone. National political leadership and governance are central drivers of sector AE, while national financial and procurement systems and the behaviour of actors who have not signed up to the Paris Principles – at both national and global levels – have implications for progress that cut across sectors. Sectors and sub-sectors do nonetheless have distinct features that must be considered in attempting to improve sector-level AE. In light of these findings, using political economy approaches to better understand and address governance and strengthening sector-level monitoring is recommended as part of efforts to improve AE and development results in the water sector
