Gender Mainstreaming in Skills Development

First in a series of annual reports, this volume is about people and about how development enlarges their choices--access to income, long life, knowledge, political freedom, personal security, community participation, and guaranteed human rights. It measures human development not by the yardstick of income alone, but by the human development index--reflecting life expectancy, literacy and command over resources to enjoy a decent standard of living. The report analyzes the record of human development for the last three decades and the experience of 14 countries in managing economic growth and human development. The volume concludes with human development indicators for more than 130 countries, both developing and developed. ISBN 0-19-306481-X (pbk.): $15.95.

Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest prevalence of hunger in the world. Until this situation improves, the human development prospects of millions of Africans will remain at risk. UNDP's first Africa Human Development Report shows that food security and human development reinforce each other. If African countries are to realise their long-term potential, the report says, they must boost agricultural productivity to both improve the availability of food and reduce poverty. Policies to enhance nutrition are central to ensuring that access to food translates into human development. The report argues further that local populations must have the resources and decision-making power to produce and consume nutritious food throughout the year, overcoming the risks represented by continuing conflict, climate change and variations in food prices.

The UNDP’s global initiative—“Growing Inclusive Markets”—brings together cases from all over the world and similar regional publications. In Brazil, UNDP has created the “Incluir Initiative” which aims to encourage and recognize inclusive businesses in the country. The country is facing major challenges on all levels and the private sector is counted on to be one of the reliable players to address these challenges. This report, developed under the Incluir Initiative, is the first output of an important partnership with business associations and business schools seeking to give Brazilian organizations the capacity to promote inclusive business in an innovative way. The report offers a broader view of the panorama of inclusive business in Brazil, addressing cases identified under the UNDP Incluir Initiative, and challenges and opportunities identified in the business ecosystem. This report presents the main challenges, strategies and opportunities for developing inclusive markets in Brazil. It details how inclusive businesses can provide goods, services, and livelihoods on a commercially viable and wide-scale basis to people living at the base of the economic pyramid (BOP), making them part of the value chain of core businesses as suppliers, distributors, retailers, or customers for companies.
