Developing countries, which are the primary sufferers, are formulating and implementing different policies and programmes to address these problems. Most of the developing countries have signed for achieving Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), an ambitious global development agenda, designed by the United Nations in 2000, in national level by 2015. This analyses the progress of Nepal towards MDGs, particularly, poverty reduction and environmental sustainability, and reviews the policies, programmes and activities. The analysis highlights the challenges and opportunities to achieve environment and poverty related to MDGs.

The study revealed that multidimensional causes are uncovered for the relentless inter ethnic conflicts in the region. Some causes are historical while other dimensions are intensified in the new ethnic based Federalism. Three major causes are responsible for the Anywaa-Nuer Conflicts. Competing livelihood strategies and domination in population number and language are among the causes. Struggle for over regional power is another factor. Ethnic identity in regional political struggle is intensified under the federalism structure and taken as inclusion/exclusion strategy of getting upper hands with the argument of 1st level citizen versus majority-minority status in the area. The 1980s state sponsored resettlement program of highlanders in the area brought hostility of the locals over the settlers. In the Federalism structure, regional ownership and alliance induced conflicts are also noticed between the Anwaa and the Highlanders. Over centuries, the Anywaa-Nuer conflicts were negotiated through mediators to pronouncement of rules. Recently, dispute management is politicized and hence local efforts are gradually eroded. ····· 1036198638

However, empirical studies disclose that most of the indigenous tourism enterprises (ITEs) are marginal and dependent upon dominant larger tourism enterprises. Using a descriptive survey design, the author presents indigenous tourism-related enterprises in Samburu District, Kenya in terms of their: typologies performance and, spending level of tourists. She found that indigenous tourism-related businesses were low income informal micro-businesses housed in temporary structures and hence made relatively little economic contribution beyond employing their owners. Though there is a viable market for the products, the total expenditure by tourists is dependent on group size and composition and country and region of origin. Dr. Imbaya argues that there is need for indigenous people to access education both general and entrepreneurship specific, to equip them with knowledge and skills needed for effective exploitation of existing tourism resources. This book is recommended for development researchers and tourism entrepreneurs. ····· 1036198552

Although combating this serious development challenge have been rated by a panel of top international economists as having the higher priority, the pandemic remains a social, economic and at times political challenge.

It failed to achieve the main objectives of the international conventions. This failure is produced from various aspects: first some specific characteristics of the rights themselves as they lack clear standards, besides the unavailability of an international mechanism for enforcement. This calls for a new strategy to approach the implementation of human rights standards internationally. At the same time, the international development efforts that concentrate basically on achieving economic and financial progress of states and ignore the social and human dimensions of the economic strategies, were accused as the actor in the deterioration of the poor standard of human life. While both human rights activists and development practitioners are searching for a solution, they meet at a central point which is: `Human rights and human development are two sides of the same coin.` ····· 1036198494

Qualitative and descriptive research methodological approaches were used to explore and explain the factors that facilitate the levels of awareness and participation in the activities of the Decade, targeting specifically members of the National Council of the Disabled Persons of Zimbabwe (NCDPZ) in Bulawayo, the second largest city in Zimbabwe.

Persons under whose jurisdiction the developed funds fall have stamped their control over the funds through appointing cronies to committees that manage the funds. The funds have in consequence been used to reward loyalty and punish the people on the opposing side. The beneficiaries have become spectators in the development process since their needs and priorities are decided upon by elite appointed committees. To this effect, the principles and fundamentals of Rights Based Approach to development are overlooked as participation is crippled. In case of participation by beneficiaries, it is at the basic level of information sharing about the prospected projects by the committees without necessarily taking into account the most pressing needs of a community. ····· 1036191346

Este libro trata sobre la industrialización en Bogotá, capital que históricamente ha concentrado la producción industrial del País. Se propone demostrar que en el período 1990-2007 se ha producido una desindustrialización en Bogotá, relativa y absoluta, enmarcada en una industria básica de bajo valor agregado y en la deslocalización productiva, que viene buscando en la periferia de la Ciudad una alternativa de producción, a menores costos y barreras, sin dejar de usufructuar las ventajas estáticas y dinámicas de los bienes y servicios ofrecidos en la Ciudad, que debe de mantener sus condiciones de competitividad aun perdiendo su tejido industrial. ····· 1036189919

The impacts of tourism on local people have been studied in developing and developed countries, but the impacts of ecotourism development in national parks have not been commonly researched in a holistic approach, such that they often lack the positive aspects, notably for the socio-cultural dimension. The researcher develops a conceptual model of sustainability in ecotourism that fulfils some of the specifications established by Budowski (1976) and Valentine (1997), which establishes the symbiotic relationship of local communities in ecotourism represented by the benefits that local communities can acquire. ····· 1036189340
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Infrastructural facilities are necessary incentives for, and prerequisites of development, good quality of life and community cohesion. Whereas the majority of Nigerians live in rural areas, the rural dwellers have no voice in decision making on matters that concerned their lives. Consequently, the rural area is characterised by low accessibility, high degree of socio-economic and infrastructural deprivation that accelerate urbanisation. This infrastructural deprivation occasioned by official inadequacy in the rural sector gives rooms for rural populace to adopt collective action to solve problems of daily life. Thus, this book brings to the fore, through empirical analysis, how people in rural areas collectively respond to the problem of infrastructural deprivation through shared strategies and problem-solving interdependencies, relying on the principles of equity, fairness and mutual behavioural expectations they derive from their tradition. In order to overcome the problem of infrastructural deprivation, problem-solving models that are anchored on collective action, associational life, mutual trust, reciprocity, and common understanding are proposed for adoption. ····· 1036189296· 1 · ::::: · 2 ·· 3 ·· 4 ·· 5 ·· 6 ·· 7 ·· 8 · ::::: · 11 ·
