Comprehensive planning for urban transport is extremely important and piecemeal solutions have not been effective. For instance, efforts that only focus on construction, such as building flyovers or high-cost mass transit systems, are inadequate unless accompanied by suitable land-use planning and demand-side measures. It is also essential to consider the transport needs of different population groups, such as women, senior citizens, people with disabilities, and children. Each of these groups needs mobility and their travel needs and patterns vary widely.. As part of our efforts to help build capacity for urban transport planning, we just held a capacity building program at the Land Transport Authority Academy (LTAA) in Singapore from January 27 to February 2. Twenty-seven participants from Bhutan, India, Indonesia, Lebanon, Nigeria, and Vietnam attended this latest offering of the World Banks Leaders in Urban Transport Planning (LUTP) program. All of them had previously followed a month-long ...

Background. There has been a renewed focus on leadership and governance within the South African health workforce as a key to strengthening the health system. Several studies have highlighted that managers feel poorly prepared for their role and responsibilities and argue for support and development for healthcare managers. This study describes a 'training' need assessment conducted for health managers in a rural district which has informed Stellenbosch University Rural Medical Education Partnership Initiative (SURMEPI) continuing professional development activities. Objective. To determine the capacity-building needs and preferred approaches to capacity building for health managers in a rural district. Methods. The study used a mixed method design. A survey was conducted among healthcare managers followed by structured interviews with randomly selected participants. Results were discussed at a workshop and meetings with the district management, which allowed for triangulation and

The Millennium Development Goals (MDG) provide clear targets by 2015 and it turns out that sanitation is by far the largest of all the MDG targets affecting about 40% of the global population.

July 17, 2000. To All Affected Parties:. It has come to the attention of the Department of Public Service that local planning boards, realtors, land developers and home builders may be unaware of the potential impact of New York States Capacity Development Program, developed as a result of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act. In particular, I would like to bring to your attention that new investor-owned (private) water systems1 commencing operation after October 1, 1999 may have to charge rates that are far above what other systems are charging. For instance, annual water bills for new, private water systems may be in the neighborhood of $1,200 per year or higher, depending upon construction and operating costs. The goal of the States Capacity Development Program is to ensure that all new and existing water systems (both municipal and private) will be able to supply safe and adequate water, now and into the future. Various agencies, under coordination of the New York State Department of ...

In addition, you need to know a whole host of other things such as how long the project will take and how much the evaluation is worth to the client.. Thus, for the majority of ...

Health worker Berthé Aissata Touré is dedicated to helping women deliver their babies safely, but in a large country like Mali with vast rural areas, birth complications are especially risky. When we had cases of hemorrhage we referred them to the district referral center, Touré explains. Often the trip is very long and there is too much time to lose blood on the way. Even once you get there it can take a while to have blood available. Many women were lost.. Touré is among a group of auxiliary midwives called matrones who attend the majority of births in Mali. Pregnancy- and delivery-related mortality remains the primary cause of death among women of reproductive age. Although postpartum hemorrhage-the leading cause of maternal mortality-cannot be predicted, it can be avoided with appropriate measures. The World Health Organization recommends using a technique known as active management of the third stage of labor (AMTSL) to prevent excessive blood loss after delivery. AMTSL also helps ...

RedR India members were also deployed in support to government for response coordination. Feedback and observations of the deployed RedR members revealed the need for Real time Capacity Building (RTCB). Most of the government frontline workers of different line departments were leading the response on ground which was being coordinated by line departments at block and district ...

Looking closer. GSK takes a comprehensive approach to partnering with in-country research organisations to build local R&D capacity. It has a large number of local R&D partnerships, compared to other companies in scope of the Access to Medicine Index 2016. For most partnerships, it identifies specific local skills gaps and designs partnerships to target identified needs.. For example, GSK shares its employees expertise with non-profit organisations through the PULSE Volunteer Partnership. In 2015, the PULSE programme supported the Rwanda Biomedical Centre -Medical Research Centre to assess skills and infrastructure gaps and build capacity related to conducting clinical trials locally: this is an identified priority of the Rwandan Ministry of Health to encourage local R&D.. Some partnerships are also long-term, which may better support the meeting of local needs than short-term projects. For example, the company is currently collaborating with the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation (Fiocruz) in Brazil to ...

The purpose of the project was to bring the Russian and Swiss scientists to work on breeding and testing new soybean varieties resistant to disease and unfavourable climate conditions.. The project on soybeans has been designed as a scientific and practical response to the problems arising from the climate change and growing risks of food shortages.. The soybean is known for its high protein (38-45%) and oil (20%) content. The bulk of the soybean crop is grown for oil production, with the high-protein defatted and toasted soy meal used as livestock feed.. Processed soybeans are recommended for human consumption, as they represent a valuable source of complete protein, which contains significant amounts of all the essential amino acids that must be provided to the human body because of the bodys inability to synthesize them. Soy protein products can replace animal-based foods - which also have complete proteins but tend to contain more fat, especially saturated fat - without requiring ...

Over the past several years, our sector has been debating the design, relevancy and role of strategic planning as a core capacity building tool. Some say it is too time intensive and the final product too often ends up sitting on a shelf. Others deem planning to be a distraction from critical daily, operational and programmatic tasks.. In response to this conversation, several groups have weighed in. In 2008, LaPiana Associates proposed a more streamlined strategy process that it believes speaks to much of this critique. Vu Les NonprofitAF blog notes Real Time Strategic Planning as a tool to help the sector be prepared for navigating the current political climate. Other folks in the field have declared that strategy efforts should focus on building internal strategic awareness rather than focusing on external perspectives.. As a former capacity building consultant, I worked on dozens of strategic planning projects with a variety of timelines, scopes, and project components. While those with ...
