Underground water certainly represents an opportunity for poor farming communities living in arid and isolated areas. Applying water-saving strategies, including use of run-off water and integration of aquaculture with agriculture practices, has demonstrated the good performances of fish/vegetable co-culture systems even in very arid and remote areas. We would certainly appreciate if you could bring this publication to the attention of all interested and relevant people and offices you may be in contact with. Hard copies are available on demand. Kindest regards, Valerio Crespi and Alessandro Lovatelli [cid:image002.jpg@01CCD69E.717DABE0] Crespi, V.; Lovatelli, A. Aquaculture in desert and arid lands: Developments and constraints FAO Technical Workshop. 6-9 July 2010, Hermosillo, Mexico. Proceedings No. 20 Rome, FAO. 2011. 202 pp. ABSTRACT - Aquaculture in desert and arid lands has been growing steadily over the last decade thanks to the modern technologies and alternative energy sources that have allowed water in these places of extremes to be exploited more effectively and more efficiently, using it for both crop irrigation and production of fish. This publication presents the evolution of desert and arid land aquaculture in the past few decades in seven countries and regions (Australia, Egypt, Israel, Mexico, Southern Africa, the United States of America, and Central Asia) describing the achievements of a number of farming operations, which demonstrate the significant potential for farming commercial aquatic organisms using geothermal, fresh and brackish waters. The global overview on desert aquaculture development shows, through the use of maps and tables, those countries with vast extensions of arid territories that should be better investigated for potential aquaculture development. Limiting factors were extensively discussed during the workshop, and several measures were identified and proposed. Desert conditions are characterized by high day temperatures, cold winter nights, solar radiation, scarce precipitation and very low relative humidity. The experts reached consensus on the definition of aquaculture in the desert and arid lands, which was defined as follows: "Aquaculture activities practised in desert and arid lands characterized by low precipitation (< 250 mm/year), high solar radiation, high rate of evaporation, using subsurface and surface water". At the end of the workshop, a series of recommendations were elaborated by the experts to assist FAO Member countries wishing to generate a favourable national environment to promote sustainable aquaculture development. Limited water supply remains the single largest constraint for aquaculture development in arid and semi-arid regions; however, where the resource is available, the development of integrated aqua-agriculture systems may certainly provide economic output opportunities from such resource-limited regions. Such farming systems may also enable the production of highly priced fish, vegetables and fruits all year round.

[Forum dialogue on dams] Politiques internationales, prise de décision et dialogue / International policies, decision making and dialogue
by KOUNDOUNO Jérôme 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

Bonjour à tous, Veuillez trouver ci-joint le rapport d'étude intitulé « Prise de décision et dialogue autour des grands barrages et des infrastructures hydrauliques », commandité par l'UICN dans le cadre du dialogue régional mené par la CEDEAO, pour apporter des éléments de réflexion dans le débat régional. Ce rapport fait le point sur les approches à la prise de décision / dialogue sur les grands barrages et les infrastructures hydrauliques dans les pays et les marchés émergents du Sud. Il met l'accent en particulier sur les politiques / pratiques relatives aux aspects environnementaux et sociaux, et l'engagement des parties prenantes, y compris les populations affectées par le projet. Le but de cette étude était de faire le bilan de la diversité des approches énoncées dans les politiques internationales de premier plan, avec un accent sur trois Priorités Stratégiques de la Commission Mondiale des Barrages (les 'PS' 2, 3 et 5) par rapport aux équivalents dans les autres politiques. Dans les deux études de cas menées au Cameroun et au Sénégal, les lois/réglementations nationales ont été examinées, en rapport avec l'étude d'impact environnemental (EIE). Les processus de prise de décision autour de projets d'infrastructure comprennent des degrés divers de participation des parties prenantes. «L'espace pour la participation» par les organisations de la société civile (OSC) dans les deux pays a été étudié. Cordialement, ________________________________ Hi all, Please find enclosed the report entitled "Decision-making and dialogue relating to large dams and hydraulic infrastructures", ordered by IUCN in the framework of the ECOWAS regional dialogue to give some elements for the regional debate. This report considers approaches to decision-making/dialogue on large dams and hydraulic infrastructures in developing countries and emerging markets, particularly policies/practices relating to environmental and social aspects, and engagement of stakeholders, including project-affected populations. The purpose has been to take stock of the diversity of approaches set out in leading international policies, with a focus on three Strategic Priorities of the World Commission on Dams ('SP' 2, 3 and 5) compared with equivalents in other policies. In the two case study countries conducted in Cameroon and Senegal, national laws/regulations were reviewed, relating to environmental impact assessment (EIA). Decision-making processes around infrastructure projects include varying degrees of participation by stakeholders. The 'space for participation' by civil society organisations (CSOs) in the two countries has been investigated.

________________________________ From: info(a)e-agriculture.org [info(a)e-agriculture.org] Sent: 14 January 2012 20:01 To: William Leschen Subject: [e-Agriculture] January Newsletter | The Year in Review: 2011 January Newsletter | The Year in Review: 2011 The e-Agriculture Newsletter is part of a global initiative to enhance sustainable agricultural development and food security by improving the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). e-Agriculture is a Community of more than 7,900 members from over 160 countries and territories. [cid:ddc94e056f856443c1c8d996c621b67e@www.e-agriculture.org] In 2011, the e-Agriculture Community was driven by the dedicated participation and continuous input of people from all over the world. Community membership increased by 15%, reaching nearly 8,000 members from 160 countries. This makes e-Agriculture the largest network engaged in knowledge sharing and discussion of key topics on the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for agricultural and rural development. IN THIS ISSUE: [cid:402fb9b69dd0a683f65501a322ad81a9@www.e-agriculture.org] TOP TEN CONTENT OF THE YEAR <https://mail.stir.ac.uk/owa/?ae=Item&t=IPM.Note&id=RgAAAAAxlcyUqQuvSKWe2CxV…>[cid:402fb9b69dd0a683f65501a322ad81a9@www.e-agriculture.org] ACCOMPLISHMENTS <https://mail.stir.ac.uk/owa/?ae=Item&t=IPM.Note&id=RgAAAAAxlcyUqQuvSKWe2CxV…>[cid:402fb9b69dd0a683f65501a322ad81a9@www.e-agriculture.org] FORUMS<https://mail.stir.ac.uk/owa/?ae=Item&t=IPM.Note&id=RgAAAAAxlcyUqQuvSKWe2CxV…> [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/banner_topten.jpg]What were the top interests of the e-Agriculture Community in 2011? Our Top 10 List for 2011 shows that the Community was keenly interested in the issues that will impact development, improving knowledge exchange and getting to know peers in the ICT for agriculture field. This top 10 list was compiled based on activity levels on www.e-agriculture.org<http://www.e-agriculture.org> during the year: [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/1.jpg]Impact of ICT4ag projects: The Community recognizes that "ICT will only become an effective, mainstream tool for agricultural development if the proponents of ICT for development can provide more rigorous evidence, strategies, benchmarks, indicators, and promising practices that are directly relevant to the core poverty-reduction and development priorities of developing countries and their international partners." (Read more about Capturing Impact<http://www.e-agriculture.org/content/policy-brief-challenges-and-opportunit…>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/2.jpg] Agricultural Value Chains: The critical role and potential of ICTs in agricultural value chains continues to be important to the Community. With different types of ICT having different strengths and weaknesses when applied to particular interventions, the impacts of ICT are diverse and markets are influenced in different ways. People and institutions are as recognized as the essential elements in this system. (Read more about Agricultural Value Chains)<http://www.e-agriculture.org/agricultural-value-chains-and-ict> [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/3.jpg] Mobile technology: Some have called 2011 the "year of the mobile". As an affordable and accessible means of communication, rural communities and development workers are realizing the potential of mobile telephony to create economic opportunities and strengthen social networks. The Community continues to seek and share new applications of this technology and to monitor its limitations. (Read more about Mobile Telephony<http://www.e-agriculture.org/mobile-telephony-rural-areas>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/4.jpg]Improving access to ARD: The potential of ICT to make information from agricultural research and development more available, accessible and applicable is growing in recognition. To further understanding and successes in this area, the Community joined with the CIARD community to explore the issue in detail this year. (Read more on access to ARD<http://www.e-agriculture.org/content/building-ciard-framework-data-and-info…>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/5.jpg]Youth, agriculture and ICT: An agriculture sector able to meet the world's needs without depleting its resources will only become a reality if young professionals are actively engaged in shaping the sector's future. ICTs are a vehicle through which young people are attracted to and can find a place within the agricultural sector. The Community made a special effort this year to reach out to its younger members as well as raise awareness through YPARD. (Read more about Youth, agriculture and ICTs<http://www.e-agriculture.org/blog/youth-icts-and-agriculture-–-wrapping-spe…>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/6.jpg]Gender and ICT: If gender is missing from rural and agricultural ICT initiatives, then an opportunity to improve the socio-economic conditions of women, who are the largest and most active component of many agricultural populations is missed. The Community realizes that ICTs have the potential to benefit women in agricultural production and to challenge existing gender imbalances in rural livelihoods only if there is sufficient understanding of women's status and gender roles and responsibilities in society. (Read more about Gender and ICTs<http://www.e-agriculture.org/gender-icts-and-rural-livelihoods>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/7.jpg]Water and ICT: As the population increases and development calls for increased allocations of water for agriculture and other uses, the pressure on water resources intensifies. ICTs provide wide ranging opportunities for the management of water as a resource, and for the management of information about water. As with other subject, ICTs are being used to manage critical information resources about water, making these readily available, and accessible. (Read more about water and ICTs<http://www.e-agriculture.org/WWD>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/8.jpg]Knowledge Base: The Knowledge Base<http://www.e-agriculture.org/knowledge-base-resources> is home to valuable resources related to ICT in Agriculture and Rural Development. These resources are submitted by Community members covering experiences and outcomes through case studies and reports, ICT statistics, examples of government e-agriculture programmes and policies, and other relevant information. We invite you to submit materials relating to e-agriculture. [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/9.jpg] Members: As with any network, getting to know more about fellow members and expanding professional networks is an important activity. The Community's Member Profiles<http://www.e-agriculture.org/Members> were very popular. (Log in<http://www.e-agriculture.org/user/login?destination=node/33649> is required to view Member Profiles) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/10.jpg] Sourcebook: With the launch of the "ICT in Agriculture" Sourcebook, a multi-author resource on the use of ICT in the field, the World Bank established one of the preeminent resources in the Community's area of interest. Becoming available near the end of the year, it just made the top 10 list. No doubt with more discussions on the Sourcebook planned in 2012, it will remain high on the agenda of the Community. (Read more about the Sourcebook<http://www.e-agriculture.org/ict-agriculture-sourcebook>) [cid:d3a5b6a1327095fb59324e896f74478e@www.e-agriculture.org] [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/e-Ag_leaf.jpg] Tri-lingual Platform: The Spanish<http://www.e-agriculture.org/es> and French<http://www.e-agriculture.org/fr> interfaces of the e Agriculture website were launched in early January 2011, complementing the new English<http://www.e-agriculture.org> language interface that was launched in late 2010. Efforts continue to support collaborations with Francophone and Spanish speaking members. From the Community's members, 35% have indicated that Spanish is their mother tongue and 25% have indicated French. [cid:402fb9b69dd0a683f65501a322ad81a9@www.e-agriculture.org] Blogs: The newly established Blogs section<http://www.e-agriculture.org/blog> showcases special contributions written by leaders in the Community. Through blogs, members have shared information about their work and interests in e-agriculture. In 2011, guest bloggers contributed to a total of 55 blog posts in 3 languages<http://www.e-agriculture.org/blog>, supporting interaction among Community members and attracting thousands of readers. [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/e-Ag_leaf.jpg] Resources: The e-Agriculture Knowledge Base<http://www.e-agriculture.org/knowledge-base-resources> comprises over 1,600 resources. This collection continued to grow during the year as members submitted new content. The quality of metadata in the Knowledge Base was greatly improve by our two interns, Brieuc de Roquefeuil<http://www.e-agriculture.org/blog/mon-expérience-avec-l’équipe-e-agricultur…> and Erin Yingling<http://www.e-agriculture.org/blog/my-internship-e-agriculture>, making the resources more accessible and relevant. [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/e-Ag_leaf.jpg] Publications: All e-Agriculture Policy Briefs<http://www.e-agriculture.org/policy-briefs-archive> (a total of 19 including language versions) were reviewed and updated, with the 2nd editions of the documents published. All are now available in the new Policy Brief Archive<http://www.e-agriculture.org/policy-briefs-archive>. These publications present valuable summaries of the extensive discussions that have taken place during the Community's online forums (see: Forums Archive<http://www.e-agriculture.org/forums/forum-archive>) [http://www.e-agriculture.org/sites/default/files/e-Ag_leaf.jpg] International Year of Youth: To mark the International Year of Youth, e-Agriculture and YPARD organized a special blog series<http://www.e-agriculture.org/en/blogs-series-youth-agriculture-and-icts> from July to August to give a voice to youth, and to bring their perspective to the issues surrounding the field of agriculture, young professionals and the use of ICT. A total of 27 blogs in 3 languages<http://www.e-agriculture.org/en/recent-blogs-blogs-series-youth-agriculture…> were published, which were very popular with the Community.
