File Size : 10,44 MB

ISBN : 925138892X
Book Description
The report is a preliminary study to examine the status in the Voluntary National Reviews (VNR) of SDG 6 in general, and target 6.4 indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2 in particular, and to assess their significance in the reporting process both on the national and subregional scale. The review aims to provide information to support the improvement of the VNR process and the VNR reports and strengthen accountability around the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target 6.4. In addition, this information will help Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) provide better and more targeted support and policy recommendations to individual United Nations (UN) Member States on how to report on SDG indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2. The report consists of several sections. First, the VNR are introduced, and the report provides a global status of VNR in general. Next, a description of the background and context of SDG 6 and SDG indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2 is provided. Then, an overview is presented on the methodology used to assess countries’ performance with respect to reporting on SDG 6 and SDG indicators 6.4.1 and 6.4.2. Thereafter, the report presents the inter-regional comparisons based on an established scoring system and evaluates gender linkages. Finally, the study closes with recommendations and conclusions. Although the analysis has been carried out at country level, the results are only presented at global and regional level.

Southern Asia, Australia and the Search for Human Origins

Publisher : Cambridge University Press
Page : 349 pages

Release : 2014-02-24
Category : History
ISBN : 1107017858
Book Description
This volume summarizes what is - and is not - known about the earliest evidence of our species outside Africa, from Arabia to Australia. Most books on the origins of "modern human behavior" and the expansion of our species across the world focus on evidence from Africa, Europe, and the Levant, which have been extensively researched. This book focuses instead on the important areas of southern Asia such as Arabia and India, as well as evidence from Australia, which deserve far wider attention than they have hereto received.

The Chinese Constitution of Central Asia
Author : N. Godehardt
Publisher : Springer
Page : 220 pages
File Size : 33,61 MB
Release : 2014-03-21
Category : Social Science
ISBN : 1137359749
Book Description
China's commitments in Central Asia illustrate how regional foreign policy works and how long-standing principles of Chinese foreign policy might be revised in the near future. China's rise has 'moved' Asia, which is why it seems that what we have traditionally regarded as the geographic and political scope of Asia might actually considerably change in the near future. Nadine Godehardt gives crucial insights into the Chinese expert discourse on Central Asia - analyzing how Chinese experts define Central Asia when they talk and write about policy issues related to China's immediate Western neighbourhood. In this context, she gives an inside perspective on Chinese voices whose meanings are rarely examined in Chinese International Relations studies.
