L’innovation dans le développement des territoires actuels : Une exploration littéraire

Territorial development refers to the implementation of policies and actions aimed at improving the economic, social, and environmental conditions of a region or territory. Nowadays, there is an organizational and territorial transformation that encourages governments to make their territories more attractive and competitive through innovative practices. Indeed, territorial innovation is an important aspect of territorial development as it stimulates the creation of new products, services, and processes that meet the specific needs and challenges of the region. It can also help boost economic growth and enhance the region’s competitiveness on the global market. This concept encompasses various strategies, such as the efficient use of local resources, adoption of new technologies, collaboration among regional actors, and promotion of innovative skills, all aimed at invigorating territories, improving their competitiveness, and making them more attractive. This theoretical article aims to demonstrate the contribution of innovation to territorial development through existing literature, by giving more privileges to local actors and its impact on economic development.Le développement territorial fait référence à la mise en place de politiques et d’actions visant à améliorer les conditions économiques, sociales et environnementales d’une région ou d’un territoire. De nos jours, on assiste à une mutation organisationnelle et territoriale qui pousse les gouvernements à chercher à rendre leur territoire plus attractif et plus compétitif, à travers certaines pratiques innovantes. En effet, l’innovation territoriale est l’un des aspects importants du développement territorial, car elle permet de stimuler la création de nouveaux produits, services et processus qui répondent aux besoins et aux défis spécifiques de la région, elle peut également aider à stimuler la croissance économique et à améliorer la compétitivité de la région sur le marché mondial. Ce concept englobe diverses stratégies, telles que l’utilisation efficace des ressources locales, l’adoption de nouvelles technologies, la collaboration entre acteurs régionaux et la promotion de compétences innovantes, dont l’objectif est de dynamiser les territoires, d’améliorer leur compétitivité et de les rendre plus attractifs. Cet article théorique a pour objectif de montrer la contribution de l’innovation sur le développement territorial ; à travers la littérature existante ; en accordant plus de privilèges aux acteurs locaux, et son impact sur le développement économique

Studies on Arabic Dialectology and Sociolinguistics

This volume contains over fifty articles related to various fields of modern Arabic dialectology. All the articles are revised and enhanced versions of papers read on the 12th Conference of the Association Internationale de Dialectologie Arabe (AIDA) held in Marseille in June 2017. Since its first conference in Paris in 1993, AIDA members gather every two years in different country. The collection of the AIDA proceedings offer an updated insight of the development of the field. During the past few decadesthe the study of Arabic dialects has become an important branch of research covering a wide range of subjects from phonological analyses, morphosyntax, semantics to pragmatics, sociolinguistics, folk linguistics, studies on literacy and writings, cultural and artistic practices, etc. As many articles of this volume illustrate, the study of Arabic dialects explores different aspects of the languages and cultures of the contemporary Arab world. A remarkable feature is the growing and constant participation of young scholars from all around the globe

Prevalence, associated factors and outcomes of pressure injuries in adult intensive care unit patients: the DecubICUs study

Funder: European Society of Intensive Care Medicine; doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100013347Funder: Flemish Society for Critical Care NursesAbstract: Purpose: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in adult ICU patients. Methods: International 1-day point-prevalence study; follow-up for outcome assessment until hospital discharge (maximum 12 weeks). Factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injury and hospital mortality were assessed by generalised linear mixed-effects regression analysis. Results: Data from 13,254 patients in 1117 ICUs (90 countries) revealed 6747 pressure injuries; 3997 (59.2%) were ICU-acquired. Overall prevalence was 26.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 25.9–27.3). ICU-acquired prevalence was 16.2% (95% CI 15.6–16.8). Sacrum (37%) and heels (19.5%) were most affected. Factors independently associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries were older age, male sex, being underweight, emergency surgery, higher Simplified Acute Physiology Score II, Braden score 3 days, comorbidities (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, immunodeficiency), organ support (renal replacement, mechanical ventilation on ICU admission), and being in a low or lower-middle income-economy. Gradually increasing associations with mortality were identified for increasing severity of pressure injury: stage I (odds ratio [OR] 1.5; 95% CI 1.2–1.8), stage II (OR 1.6; 95% CI 1.4–1.9), and stage III or worse (OR 2.8; 95% CI 2.3–3.3). Conclusion: Pressure injuries are common in adult ICU patients. ICU-acquired pressure injuries are associated with mainly intrinsic factors and mortality. Optimal care standards, increased awareness, appropriate resource allocation, and further research into optimal prevention are pivotal to tackle this important patient safety threat

Régionalisation et Management Stratégique du Territoire : Catalyseurs du Développement Économique au Maroc - Une Étude Comparative

Au Maroc, la régionalisation était l’une des réformes les plus significatives de ces dernières années, elle a engendré une nouvelle dynamique dans la gouvernance territoriale du pays. Cette réforme a également mis en évidence le rôle des acteurs locaux dans le management des affaires régionales, tout en mettant en avant le rôle du management stratégique du territoire dans la promotion de l’attractivité des régions et la stimulation du développement économique. Le contexte de la régionalisation au Maroc découle de l’adoption de la régionalisation avancée comme option majeure de gestion du développement et à résoudre les disparités territoriales et à contrôler les inégalités à des échelles micros. La transition de la gestion centralisée à la gestion décentralisée de la chose publique demande de nouvelles relations et comportements entre les acteurs impliqués dans les affaires publiques. Dans cette étude ; et sur la base des différents travaux de recherches (articles, livres, rapports...) ; nous opterons pour une analyse comparative tirée des expériences marocaines et européennes pour examiner de près ces concepts, les reliant pour mieux comprendre comment ils interagissent et contribuent à l’évolution du Maroc
