No results found.The project aimed to tackle the challenges of low income and unemployment among youth and women, specifically within the family farming sector in Grand Bahama and Abaco Island. The sector lacked consistent access to the technology and knowledge needed to develop economic enterprises able to serve national and regional food markets, while promoting local sustainable livelihoods. The MAMR lacked the tools required to deliver adequate training in agricultural practices and agribusiness, and organizational and financial support. The MAMR also had no National Strategy or National Land Administrative Proposal to achieve the rural development goals set out in the SGD 2030. -
Book (stand-alone)Applying the degree of urbanisation — A methodological manual to define cities, towns and rural areas for international comparisons
2021 edition
2021Also available in:
No results found.Applying the Degree of Urbanisation — A methodological manual to define cities, towns and rural areas for international comparisons has been produced in close collaboration by six organisations — the European Commission, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UNHabitat), the International Labour Organization (ILO), the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and The World Bank. This manual develops a harmonised methodology to facilitate international statistical comparisons and to classify the entire territory of a country along an urban-rural continuum. The degree of urbanisation classification defines cities, towns and semi-dense areas, and rural areas. This first level of the classification may be complemented by a range of more detailed concepts, such as: metropolitan areas, commuting zones, dense towns, semi-dense towns, suburban or peri-urban areas, villages, dispersed rural areas and mostly uninhabited areas. The manual is intended to complement and not replace the definitions used by national statistical offices (NSOs) and ministries. It has been designed principally as a guide for data producers, suppliers and statisticians so that they have the necessary information to implement the methodology and ensure coherency within their data collections. It may also be of interest to users of subnational statistics so they may better understand, interpret and use official subnational statistics for taking informed decisions and policymaking. -
