Описание: This publication reviews 91 impact evaluations of transport interventions in developing countries, summarizes findings on outcomes, identifies evidence gaps, and proposes ways forward. Most of the studies reviewed find significant effects on at least one of the outcomes investigated. However, impact evaluation has given relatively little coverage to major areas of investment, such as urban and sustainable transport, transport corridors, and efficiency enhancing measures. New methods and increasing openness of geospatial data provide scope to generate more innovative impact studies in this sector.
Описание: This volume reviews the features necessary for the system to build scientific soundness, incorporate risk analysis principles and keep abreast of new scientific developments and innovations to improve. It explores how competent authorities anchor their decisions in relevant scientific and technical information, reviews the robustness of information-collection processes as a foundation for risk analysis, and assesses the use made of this risk analysis framework to handle food safety risks.
The FAO/WHO Food Control System Assessment Tool provides a harmonized, objective and consensual basis for analysing the performance of a national food control system, with the aim of protecting the health of consumers and ensuring fair practices in the food trade. It seeks to support countries in identifying and prioritizing areas of improvement and planning activities to reach expected outcomes and monitor progress. The Tool is based on Codex principles and Guidelines for National Food Control Systems as well as other relevant Codex guidance.
Описание: This volume identifies the interactions that must take place for the system to regularly adjust to national and international stakeholders’ evolving needs, to inspire stakeholders' confidence and to keep them well informed about their responsibilities. It focuses on the transparency of communication to consumers and food business operators and their integration into the food control system.

Описание: This volume focuses on the processes and outputs of the control activities of a national food control system. It reviews the control functions exercised by competent authorities over food business operators - at domestic and import or export level - to guarantee food safety and quality along the food chain as well as fair trade practices. It also maps out control functions and mechanisms at the food supply level to identify, monitor, predict and handle food safety hazards and emerging risks, and deal with food emergencies.

Описание: This volume maps out the fundamental elements that the system needs in order to operate. These range from the policy and legal foundations of food control systems to the financial resources, infrastructure and analytical resources needed to support official controls over food. It also analyses issues related to food control personnel. It looks closely at the relationship between strategic planning and available resources, and ways of adjusting strategies and policy choices to reflect resource constraints.

Описание:
Food security is high on the political agenda. Fears about societal insecurity due to food price increases and hunger, grave scenarios regarding the effects of climate change and general uncertainty about the impacts of investments in biofuels and so-call "land grabbing" on food prices and availability have meant that food security is now recognised as being a multifaceted challenge. This book is unique in that it will bring together analyses of these different factors that impact on food security.
This volume will describe a range of different perspectives on food security, with an emphasis on the various meanings that are applied to food security "crisis". The challenges to be reviewed include market volatility, climate change and state fragility. Analyses of responses to food security crises and risk will cover rural and urban contexts, arenas of national policy formation and global food regimes, and investment in land and productive technologies.
This book is unique in two respects. First, it takes a step back from the normative literature focused on specific factors of, for example, climate change, agricultural production or market volatility to look instead at the dynamic interplay between these new challenges. It helps readers to understand that food security is not one discourse, but is rather related to how these different factors generate multiple risks and opportunities. Second, through the case studies the book particularly emphasises how these factors come together at local levels as farmers, entrepreneurs, consumers, local government officials and others are making key decisions about what will be done to address food security and whose food security will be given priority. The book will explore how food production and consumption is embedded in powerful political and market forces and how these influence local actions.
