Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this last decade, poverty in developing countries remains the most important topic of debate at the international level. The main challenge is how to build policies and programs on a gender perspective approach taking into account gender differences in behavior between male and female at the level of the household. This study is undertaken in a context of two earner partners living in mixed farming systems in Senegal where earnings come primarily from crops and livestock. This book provides substantial research focused on household decision-making regarding resource allocation and consumption. Moreover, it attempts to show empirical findings on the analysis of welfare and well-being through an innovative combination of subjective and objective methods. The research shows how important socioeconomic and cultural factors are in determining earnings from agricultural activities. Important determinants of productivity are related to women’s land access, non-labor income (transfers from migrants), and the wife's access to credit and health care. The research illustrates also that women's bargaining power may be strongly linked to their access to livestock resources, their mobility in purchasing food and medicine and their participation in the management of household finance. Analysis of decision-making regarding expenditures shows that women, more than men, value household goods (related to food, health and schooling expenditures) more than private goods. The results suggest that policies aimed at improving household livelihoods must understand gender differences, obligations and priorities.

Book Synopsis Applications of Systems Approaches at the Farm and Regional Levels by : P.S. Teng
Download or read book Applications of Systems Approaches at the Farm and Regional Levels written by P.S. Teng and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systems approaches for agricultural development are needed to determine rational strategies for the role of agriculture in national development. Mathematical models and computer simulation provide objective tools for applying science to determine and evaluate options for resource management at field, farm and regional scales. However, these tools would not be fully utilizable without incorporating social and economic dimensions into their application. The second international symposium, Systems Approaches for Agricultural Development, held in Los Baños, 6-8 December 1995, fostered this link between the bio-physical sciences and the social sciences in the choice of keynote papers and oral presentations, a selection of which is included in this book. The book's contents further reflect how systems approaches have definitely moved beyond the research mode into the application mode. The large number and high quality of interdisciplinary research projects reported from different parts of the globe, to determine land use options that will meet multiple goals and yet sustain natural resource bases, is a key indicator of this `coming of age'. At the farm level, where trade-off decisions between processes and products (commodities) feature strongly, much progress is also evident in the development of systems-based tools for decision making. This book will be of particular interest to all agricultural scientists and planners, as well as students interested in multidisciplinary and holistic approaches for agricultural development.

Book excerpt: A West African nation with an extremely rich political and cultural heritage, Senegal continues to serve as a role model for Francophone Africa despite its weak economic base and small population. Senegal's status as both a Sahelian and a maritime country brought its people into early contact with Islam and the West, making the country a crossroads where traditional African, Islamic, and European cultures met and blended. Sheldon Gellar begins his exploration of Senegal by examining the influence of Islam, Western imperialism, and French colonial rule and by tracing the country's political, economic, and social evolution since independence. This expanded second edition also analyses developments since 1983, looking in particular at the state of multiparty democracy, the 1993 national elections, the deterioration of the political climate following the assassination of the vice president of the Constitutional Council, the 1994 devaluation of the CFA franc, and the return of Abdoulaye Wade to the government coalition in 1995. Despite its inability to break out of severe and chronic economic crises, Senegal has managed to solicit high levels of foreign aid and has gained a significant profile on the international scene. Gellar closes with an evaluation of the social and cultural trends that have contributed to Senegal's emergence as one of Africa's most important cultural centers.

This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The CGIAR Initiative on Climate Resilience is geared towards Building Systemic Resilience against Climate Variability and Extremes in developing countries including Guatemala, Kenya, Morocco, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Senegal, and Zambia. The initiative has four work packages: 1). De-risking agriculture production systems and livelihood from climate change, 2). Building production system resilience recognizing the linkages of climate, agriculture, security, and peace; 3). Developing adaptation instruments to inform policy and investments, and 4). Multiscale governance for transformative adaptation. Work Package 4 (WP4) expects to set up a bottom-up polycentric governance framework for multiscale transformative adaptation and targeted climate investments. WP4 has three components: A). Setting up a polycentric governance model and a “leave no one behind” indicator framework, and developing B). a climate smart governance dashboard to empower farmers, communities, and policy planners to plan and implement bottom-up integrated climate and water risk management interventions, and C) AWARE platform for early warning, early action, and early finance to promote integrated multiscale institutional responses to climate shocks. The Initiative Prospective Agricole et Rurale (IPAR) is supporting the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) in implementing component A of ClimBeR. This report outlines the steps undertaken in mapping adaptation interventions in Senegal as part of ClimBeR activities towards developing a bottom-up polycentric governance model for transformative multi-scale adaptation and timely targeted climate investments. The mapping exercise the review of published grey and peer-reviewed literature and interviews with key stakeholders in national structures involved in food security, climate change and/or governance of early warning systems. The IPAR team mapped 31 adaptation interventions and identified the stakeholders involved in the planning and implementation of the interventions, the geographic focus of the interventions and intended/target beneficiaries of the interviews. All the mapped intervention focused on food security with households and smallholder farmers as primary target beneficiaries. Different institutions, including government agencies and ministries, and development partners and non-govermental organisations are involved in planning and implementation of climate change adaptation in Senegal. The mapping activities, however, revealed that although the institutions identified through this mapping exercise share similar project goals and are involved in similar projects, they use different operational and institutional frameworks resulting in the lack of harmonization of tools deployed in assessing the orientation of the various interventions and duplication of interventions. The lack quality climate data was also identified as a barrier to decision making and governance of adaptation planning and implementation. Ensuring that all stakeholders across all administrative levels and sectors have the same level of information to guide their action is critical in coordinating efforts in enhancing climate adaptation action. Furthermore, a robust governance mechanism to support the governance of adaptation interventions in Senegal remain urgent priorities. Deepening these governance structures that enables cross-sectoral and multi-stakeholder collaboration is critical in enhancing progress in adaptation planning and implementation in Senegal. Mainstreaming of climate change adaptation into national, sectoral and local level policies and budgeting are important enablers of in the governance of climate adaptation.
