Africa agriculture trade monitor 2020

The 2020 Africa Agriculture Trade Monitor, the third in this series of flagship reports, presents an overview of trade in agriculture products in Africa and highlights the main impediments that affect intra- and extra-African trade. This year’s report includes chapters focusing on intra-Africa trade integration for agricultural products, including the role of nontariff measures, and on the competitiveness of African value chains that are crucial for food security (cereals, sugar, vegetable oils). The importance and measurement of informal cross-border trade for agricultural products is also examined. The final chapter looks at regional integration experiences in Southern Africa, with a focus on the Southern Africa Development Community. The report offers policy recommendations for improving agricultural exports performance, especially in the context of the unprecedented uncertainty the world is facing with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Boosting intra-African trade and deepening regional integration offer an effective vehicle to speed up Africa’s economic transformation. Increasing the volumes of intra-African trade in agricultural products and the elimination of non-tariff barriers have the potential to boost industrialization and enhance competitiveness, at country and industry levels, through higher investments in connectivity and infrastructure, both physical and digital.

Gender and trade in Africa: Case study of Niger

The evidence on the impact of trade liberalization on gender inequalities is not fully established yet, nor is the impact of gender inequalities on trade policy outcomes. Sociocultural norms, legal barriers, and socioeconomic disadvantages are the main gender-based discrimination that affect the distribution of trade benefits between men and women. This study applied to Niger assesses the distributional effects of trade reforms between men and women and sheds light on the impact of gender-based barriers on the outcome of trade reforms. The Common External Tariff (CET) of the Economic Community of West African States has guided Niger’s trade policy since its implementation in 2015. Thus, th...

Prioritization of types of investments: Operational tools for MCC agricultural investments

This report answers the question: “What guidelines can be used to identify the types of agricultural investments that have the highest economic return, where “agriculture” is broadly defined to include primary production, handling, storage, transportation, distribution, processing, and retailing?” Using the literature and MCC’s ERR analyses, we explain how agricultural investments fit in a wider development context, identify information useful to MCC’s decision making that is not provided by the ERR analyses, and suggest IFPRI tools for exploratory and ex-ante evaluative analysis that MCC can use in their decision-making process.

Die Internationale Zusammenarbeit im Migrationsrecht der Schweiz

  • Categories: Law

Migrationspolitik und Migrationsrecht sind nationalstaatlich geprägt und damit hauptsächlich auf fremdenpolizeiliche und arbeitsrechtliche Bedürfnisse ausgerichtet. Mit dem massgeblich von der Schweiz und der Berner Initiative initiierten internationalen Migrationsdialog und dem Global Compact for Migration zeichnet sich eine neue partnerschaftliche Betrachtungsweise ab: Künftig soll Migration als ein Common Concern of Humankind, als ein gemeinsames Anliegen der Menschheit bezeichnet werden. So gelten zum Beispiel Migrationspartnerschaften als erste vielversprechende Ansätze dieser neuen Philosophie. Der Fokus der vorliegenden Dissertation liegt auf der Herausarbeitung der Grundlagen de...

It is an invaluable resource for those concerned with the implications of population change in the 21st century. The End of World Population Growth in the 21st Century is the first volume in a new series on Population and Sustainable Development. The series provides fresh ways of thinking about population trends and impacts.
