    Also available in:
    No results found.
    The ENACT course provides an introduction to the practice of nutrition education. This is a “blended learning” course pitched at undergraduate level, requiring a mix of independent work and tutorial contact. Two CDs are available: one for students and one for tutors. The tutors’ materials include copies of all the students’ materials, as well as a Tutor’s Guide, some extra optional materials for some units, and a “Full Answer Key for Tutors” which gives answers and comments on all the activities and guidelines for marking assessed questions. There are also two more formal tests with Answer Keys. The Students’ materials include introductions and ten-and-a-half course units, each containing a Student’s Book with a unit glossary at the end and a set of Unit Resources, including some audio and video files. The course is based on a mix of independent work using the Student’s Book and Unit Resources, “Outside activities” which explore aspects of real life, including a mini Nutrition Education project, and tutorials. Two tutorials are foreseen for each unit.

    Cyclone Ockhi - Disaster risk management and sea safety in the Indian marine fisheries sector 2019
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    Between 29 November and 3 December, 2017, Cyclone Ockhi devastated hundreds of lives and livelihoods of coastal fishing communities in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, India. This study assesses the impacts of the cyclone on fishing communities and the mechanisms in place at the local, national and international levels to address disaster risks and sea safety in small-scale fisheries, using a human rights-based approach.In line with the Sendai Framework 2015-2030 and the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-scale Fisheries, the study recommends applying “relief-development continuum” and “build back better” concepts to the management of disaster risks in order to save lives and to reduce damage to fisheries assets and livelihoods.

    Rapid Assessment of Natural Resource Degradation in Refugee Impacted Areas in Northern Uganda
    Technical Report June 2019 - Updated based on April 2019 refugee statistics
    2020
    Also available in:
    No results found.
    This report summarizes the main findings and recommendations of the assessment, updated to reflect the most recent (April 2019) refugee population figures. These are expected to guide WB support to the Government of Uganda (GoU)—including the Development Response to Displacement Impacts Project (DRDIP) and an IDA disbursement window for refugee-affected countries—as well as provide information of wider strategic value to other agencies concerned with the impacts of refugees on natural resources in Uganda. A similar analysis is being undertaken for the refugee settlements in west and south-west Uganda and will result in a second assessment report that will add to the evidence base for the WB/GoU interventions.
