Achieving Water Security: Lessons from Research in Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene in Ethiopia
ISBN: 9781853397639 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While achieving water security remains an elusive goal across large swathes of sub-Saharan Africa, the benefits of investing in water, sanitation and hygiene to achieve basic water security and alleviate poverty are clear. Households benefit through a range of health, educational, nutritional and broader livelihood impacts; local, regional and national economies benefit from greater economic activity, spending and investment; and over the longer-term, households and economies benefit through greater resilience to climate change and shocks. So why are governments and their development partners...

Still Standing?: Looking Back at Reconstruction and Disaster Risk Reduction in Housing
ISBN: 9781853398391 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Huge levels of aid are spent on reconstructing housing after disasters. Have these houses withstood the test of time and hazard? Just as important from the point of view of their owners, has the reconstruction process played a part in restoring their livelihoods and social networks?
Unfortunately, aid agencies rarely go back to assess the impact of reconstruction in the longer term. The research upon which Still Standing? is based has done just that. Agencies that undertook projects 3-35 years ago in countries throughout Asia and Latin America have gone back to record... Huge levels of aid are spent on reconstructing housing after disasters.

Commercial and Inclusive Value Chains: Doing Good and Doing Well
ISBN: 9781853398674 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In spite of the current wave of globalization, the majority of the world's people remain poor, excluded from economic development. This book shows that disadvantaged smallholders and other poor people can be included in modern integrated value chains, which are profitable for them, for the value chain leaders, and for all the other processors and traders involved. And, that this can be done without subsidy, without donor or government aid, and without appeal to -corporate social responsibility-; it is simple good business.
Commercial and Inclusive Value Chains includes case... In spite of the current wave of globalization, the majority of the world's people remain poor, excluded from economic development. This book shows tha...

Navigating Complexity in International Development: Facilitating Sustainable Change at Scale
ISBN: 9781853398513 / Angielski / Twarda / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Governments and organizations invest huge sums of money in development interventions to explicitly address poverty and its root causes. However, a high proportion of these do not work. This is because interventions are grounded in flawed assumptions about how change happens -- change is rarely linear, yet development interventions are almost entirely based on linear planning models. Change is also characterized by unintended consequences, which are not predictable by planners and by power dynamics, which drive outcomes towards vested interests rather than real need. Development processes need...
