Book (series)Technical studyLe droit des eaux dans certains pays européens. Vol. 1 (Angleterre et Pays de Galles, Belgique, Espagne, France, Israël, Italie, Turquie) 1977
Also available in:
Cette étude sur la législation et l'administration des eaux dans un choix de pays européens a pour but de contribuer plus avant à l'inventaire mondial des expériences nationales dans ce domaine. Chacun des pays analysés dans cette étude met en relief des charactéristiques et des expériences particulières en fonction soit de son climat, de ses conditions propres de la relation terre/eau, de son histoire juridico-politique ou de son organisation administrative. Bien qu'il n'ait pas été possible, à ce stade, de présenter un éventail plus large de pays européens, il est néanmoins envisagé de publier plus tard un second volume comportant des études relatives à des pays du nord et de l'est européen ainsi qu'à des pays fédéraux. -

Book (stand-alone)Technical studyLe statut des eaux souterraines en droit international 1987De cet élément essentiel qu'est 1'eau - essentiel à la vie, essentiel à l'agriculture - sait-on bien, pour ne parler que de l'eau douce, que sa quantité totale présente dans notre globe est contenue à raison de 77,2 pour cent, dans les calottes polaires et les glaciers et, en une proportion de 22,4 pour cent, dans les espaces souterrains? que seul le reste, à savoir 0,36 pour cent, compose les lacs et les cours d'eau? On voit là de façon évidente l'importance, vitale pour l'humanité, des eaux so uterraines. Or, il existe, soulevés par elles, certains problèmes juridiques spécifiques qui, très souvent, débordent le cadre forcément limité des frontières nationales: ces problèmes, la présente étude va chercher à les analyser.

Book (series)FlagshipThe State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2021
Transforming food systems for food security, improved nutrition and affordable healthy diets for all
2021In recent years, several major drivers have put the world off track to ending world hunger and malnutrition in all its forms by 2030. The challenges have grown with the COVID-19 pandemic and related containment measures. This report presents the first global assessment of food insecurity and malnutrition for 2020 and offers some indication of what hunger might look like by 2030 in a scenario further complicated by the enduring effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also includes new estimates of the cost and affordability of healthy diets, which provide an important link between the food security and nutrition indicators and the analysis of their trends. Altogether, the report highlights the need for a deeper reflection on how to better address the global food security and nutrition situation.To understand how hunger and malnutrition have reached these critical levels, this report draws on the analyses of the past four editions, which have produced a vast, evidence-based body of knowledge of the major drivers behind the recent changes in food security and nutrition. These drivers, which are increasing in frequency and intensity, include conflicts, climate variability and extremes, and economic slowdowns and downturns – all exacerbated by the underlying causes of poverty and very high and persistent levels of inequality. In addition, millions of people around the world suffer from food insecurity and different forms of malnutrition because they cannot afford the cost of healthy diets. From a synthesized understanding of this knowledge, updates and additional analyses are generated to create a holistic view of the combined effects of these drivers, both on each other and on food systems, and how they negatively affect food security and nutrition around the world.In turn, the evidence informs an in-depth look at how to move from silo solutions to integrated food systems solutions. In this regard, the report proposes transformative pathways that specifically address the challenges posed by the major drivers, also highlighting the types of policy and investment portfolios required to transform food systems for food security, improved nutrition, and affordable healthy diets for all. The report observes that, while the pandemic has caused major setbacks, there is much to be learned from the vulnerabilities and inequalities it has laid bare. If taken to heart, these new insights and wisdom can help get the world back on track towards the goal of ending hunger, food insecurity, and malnutrition in all its forms. -
