Описание:
This first full-length book addresses disasters in the context of vulnerability of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands that comprise 572 islands in the Bay of Bengal. It looks at the disasters that the islands have experienced in the last 200 years and analyzes major disasters since colonization by the British.
Raising some critical questions, this book attempts to understand the overall profile of disasters - the facts, causes, damage, response and recovery - in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. It discusses earthquakes, cyclones, tsunami and epidemics, as well as impacts of World War II, the penal colony and the post-Independence resettlement on the tribal population. The work will serve as a rich resource with its detailed tables, figures, maps and diagrams; appendices; and database ranging from travelogues, Census of India reports and fieldwork to Right to Information (RTI) petitions that collect hitherto unknown facts.
The book will be useful to students of geography, disasters and disasters management, climate and environmental studies, history, sociology, island and ocean studies, and South Asian studies.

Описание: Originally published in 1992, this moving account of the secret lives of vulnerable and disturbed children will enable professionals working with these children to find out what is going on in their minds - what they are thinking, what they are feeling, why they behave as they do.
Описание: This publication points out that properly managed livestock can play a role in addressing malnutrition, notably through greater integration between the livestock and nutrition sectors.
It summarizes some of the current thinking on how livestock and animal-source foods can address the nutritional needs of vulnerable households and groups. It also outlines recommendations for designing and implementing livestock interventions to leverage nutrition outcomes while supporting livelihoods.
The livestock sector plays a crucial role in the social and economic development of a country, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Livestock are a direct and indirect source of food for rural and urban households. In fact, it is estimated that animal-source foods contribute 18% of global food energy consumption and 34% of global protein consumption.
Описание: Smallholder farmers, women earners, young job-seekers, people with disability and the entrenched poor often struggle to sustain themselves or contribute to the wellbeing of their households. Despite years of attempting to address this situation, microfinance and enterprise development programs have repeatedly been unable to reach the poorest and most vulnerable. However, some programs and approaches are making advances, and this book provides conceptual and practical insights into how we can facilitate change for those most in need. It poses questions such as: how can we enable the participation and contribution of vulnerable populations in economic development programming? In what ways are subsidies being used creatively to increase assets without creating dependence? How can barriers to access for disabled people be reduced for greater financial inclusion? Is it possible for smallholders to be integrated into commercial value chains without increasing their risks? Which graduation models help poorest people to move out of extreme poverty?
Financial and Market Integration of Vulnerable People provides examples of some promising solutions including the 'push-pull' model for value chain integration, innovation in financial product design, cash transfers and graduation models, indigenous stewardship of local resources, and vouchers for smallholder agricultural technologies.
This book is important reading for policy makers, program implementers, researchers, and students of international development.
Описание: This book challenges the prevalence of stress and burnout culture within the aid sector, laying bare the issues of power, agency, security and wellbeing that continue to trouble organisations and staff.
