This document summarizes a presentation on the role of dairy products in human nutrition. It discusses how dairy provides important nutrients for growth and development. Dairy production is increasing globally, especially in developing countries in Asia and Africa. However, issues around feed, land, water and greenhouse gases pose challenges. Dairy development programs aim to improve nutrition, but often lack nutrition objectives and indicators to properly evaluate their impact. Overall, dairy can be part of a healthy, balanced diet and provides many important nutrients when produced and processed safely.

The document describes a pilot program to professionalize informal food markets in developing countries through training, certification, and branding of informal vendors. The program aims to improve food safety and nutrition by reducing contamination in the informal value chain. Research shows informal markets play a major role in food security but often lack knowledge and regulation regarding hygienic practices. The program trained informal dairy traders in Kenya, providing certification upon completion and allowing them to be officially recognized through branding. Preliminary results found improved hygienic practices and an economic impact, though longer-term follow up is still needed to ensure sustainability. The theory of change explains how such an intervention could work to ultimately benefit consumers through safer, more available food products.

The document discusses two global platforms that shape development cooperation - the Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation (GPEDC) and the United Nations Development Cooperation Forum (DCF). It analyzes three models for how these platforms could function going forward: (1) maintaining the status quo of parallel platforms, (2) defining clear separate functions for each platform, or (3) merging the platforms into a single unified platform. The document argues the third option of a single merged platform would be most legitimate, effective, and relevant for coordinating development cooperation according to the post-2015 agenda.

Accountable and effective development cooperation in a post 2015 era
This policy brief summarizes recent developments in regional and global mutual accountability mechanisms for development cooperation since 2010. It finds that mechanisms now utilize more balanced data sources, better represent different development actors, provide sufficiently frequent assessments, and are increasing efforts to engage civil society. However, challenges remain to consolidate the landscape of mechanisms, produce more evidence for decision-making, enhance relevance of assessments, and facilitate stakeholder engagement. The brief recommends undertaking a mapping of mechanisms, facilitating research on accountability and evidence, making better use of data, and assessing capacity needs to strengthen dialogue on development cooperation.

Project summary iNASHR ICARDA - Laura.pdf
The Innovative Agriculture for Smallholder Resilience (iNASHR) project (Egypt) was implemented over 3 years during which there was the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to instability in farm prices and uncertainties in water availability.
Despite this, 18 teams of Entrepreneurs for Rural Access (ERAs) serving as digital extension service providers were able to reach more than 60,000 people in rural communities between 2021 and 2023.
Three specially commissioned “farmer-to-farmer” style training videos were produced (see at the bottom of this blog post),
and 60 other relevant Access Agriculture videos were translated into Arabic and shown to farmers.
These active service providers, half of whom are women, used a solar-powered smart projector to reach communities where access to power supply, internet connection and mobile phone signal can be challenging.

‘How is the African insurance industry responding to climate change?’
6 June 2023. ‘How is the African insurance industry responding to climate change?’
https://paepard.blogspot.com/2023/06/how-is-african-insurance-industry.html
The insurance industry is exposed to the risks of climate change and that risk is increasing. Insurers should be aware of these risks and the potential impact on their business. A 2019 global survey [With Climate Impacts Growing, Insurance Companies Face Big Challenges] found that 72 percent of insurance companies believe climate change will affect their business, but 80 percent of them have not taken significant steps to lessen climate risks. Moreover, insurance companies invest the money from the premiums they collect in the financial markets. They have $582 billion invested in fossil fuels investments that could be devalued as climate risks increase.
As natural disasters become more frequent and more costly, insurance companies are facing big challenges. If insurers are to weather the storms ahead, they’ll need to make some changes. The insurance industry needs to make substantial changes to deal with its own climate risks. Some of these changes could also enable insurance companies to help speed the transition to a net-zero society.

How are African banks coping with Climate Change
16 May 2023. This webinar discussed how climate-related risks threaten the functioning of banking institutions as well as the stability of the financial system.
Climate change and climate policy affect the balance sheets and business models of banks in different ways. African banks are vulnerable to the increasing frequency and severity of climate change shocks. They are also increasingly aware of the importance of adopting green financing principles, seeking to address risks and more importantly, to grasp new opportunities.
However, only 17% of banks have so far introduced specific green financing products, and these are estimated to account for only 2-20% of their portfolio . The webinar discussed how climate-related risks threaten the functioning of banking institutions as well as the stability of the financial system. The discussions also shed light on initiatives of banks to implement sustainable practices and central banks to create an enabling environment for sustainable finance drawing on international best practices.
