"The role of diasporas for the reduction and prevention of armed violence"
Regional Review Conference on the Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development
Geneva, Switzerland | 8-9 July 2014
The Deeping Crisis of Governance and the Refugee ChallengeOECD Governance
The document discusses the deepening crisis of governance around the world and its connection to the global refugee challenge. It argues that most states are only weakly governed and unable to meet citizens' needs or maintain stability. This crisis of governance is exacerbated by long-term megatrends like the decline of states and increasing gaps between states and societies. As a result, loyalties are transferring away from states and alternative governance is rising. The refugee crisis in Europe and elsewhere is a consequence of populations moving from areas of failed governance. The refugee crisis itself poses a "wicked problem" with no clear solution due to its complexity and interconnected nature with other challenges.
"Armed violence reduction: between disarmament and development"
Regional Review Conference on the Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development
Geneva, Switzerland | 8-9 July 2014
The document discusses small arms and light weapons (SALW), providing details on:
- Types of SALW and examples
- Estimates of the number of SALW currently in circulation globally and annual illegal arms trade figures
- Major exporters and importers of SALW
- Issues caused by SALW proliferation like impacts on children, development, and public health
- National laws and collection programs related to SALW in the Philippines
- Groups working to address SALW issues like PhilANSA and their advocacy efforts
The document discusses the links between the arms trade, conflict diamonds, and human rights abuses. It notes that weak arms regulations allow weapons to fall into the wrong hands, fueling conflicts. Rebel groups then use profits from conflict diamond sales to buy more arms. This has led to millions being displaced or killed in diamond-fueled conflicts in Africa over the past decade. The document calls for supporting an Arms Trade Treaty to regulate arms transfers and expanding definitions of conflict diamonds to curb these practices and the resulting human rights abuses.
"Guideline for the session on 'community- based strategies and approaches"
Regional Review Conference on the Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development
Nairobi, Kenya | 26-27 November 2014
The document discusses the negative impacts of the arms trade on development, peacebuilding, and human rights. It argues that an Arms Trade Treaty (ATT) could help address these issues by requiring states to establish arms control lists, assess risks of human rights abuses and diversion, report on arms trades, and improve governance and security of arms stockpiles. However, the ATT does not directly address the arms trade's impact on development. Robust implementation is needed to ensure the ATT achieves its goals of reducing armed violence and supporting development.
The Global Divide (North and South): The Contemporary WorldAzeBocacao
This document discusses poverty and the differences between the Global North and South. It states that many in the Global South face poverty, war, and fragile governments. Countries of the Global South have been unable to develop their own technologies and rely on corporations from the Global North, so research and development does not often meet their needs. The UN defines 49 countries as the least developed countries of the Global South, which have low incomes, rely on agriculture, and are not significant in global markets. Their geographic isolation also hampers economic development.

While the Asia-Pacific region is home to over half the world's population, it accounts for less than a quarter of global lethal violence. Nine out of ten countries in the region have low violence rates, except for Southern Asia which exceeds the global average. Approximately one-third of all conflict deaths worldwide occur in the Asia-Pacific, driven largely by Afghanistan, India, Pakistan and Myanmar. Firearm violence and deaths from unplanned munitions explosions are also relatively high in parts of the region.

This presentation addresses the challenges of armed violence in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in Kenya, which has faced security issues due to the proliferation of illicit small arms and light weapons. Kenya has implemented initiatives to address both the supply and demand of these weapons, including arms collection, destruction, record keeping, and legal/policy reforms. However, external factors like weapons trafficking from conflict areas, terrorism, and regional instability still pose challenges. A comprehensive, integrated approach is needed that combines security and development efforts to address the root causes of armed violence in a sustainable manner.

Regional Review Conference on the Geneva Declaration on Armed Violence and Development

This document discusses the importance of including peace as a goal in the post-2015 development agenda. It argues that peace is necessary for sustainable development and poverty eradication. While some may be concerned that including peace could securitize development or violate sovereignty, the document responds that peace targets could focus on preventing conflict, be implemented locally, and do not require external intervention. It recommends improving the language and reducing the number of targets for the proposed Goal 16 on peace and governance to make it more measurable and manageable.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
UN WOD 2024 will take us on a journey of discovery through the ocean's vastness, tapping into the wisdom and expertise of global policy-makers, scientists, managers, thought leaders, and artists to awaken new depths of understanding, compassion, collaboration and commitment for the ocean and all it sustains. The program will expand our perspectives and appreciation for our blue planet, build new foundations for our relationship to the ocean, and ignite a wave of action toward necessary change.

About Potato, The scientific name of the plant is Solanum tuberosum (L).Christina Parmionova
The potato is a starchy root vegetable native to the Americas that is consumed as a staple food in many parts of the world. Potatoes are tubers of the plant Solanum tuberosum, a perennial in the nightshade family Solanaceae. Wild potato species can be found from the southern United States to southern Chile
Synopsis (short abstract) In December 2023, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 30 May as the International Day of Potato.
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
CBO’s Outlook for U.S. Fertility Rates: 2024 to 2054
Mohamed Elmi, Somali Diaspora (Norway)
1. Proliferation of Small Arms and
Reduction of Conflict in Somalia
Small arms are purchased on the open market, these arms flow in from
neighboring states and make minor conflicts among communities. People still
feel unsafe and retain arms for personal rpotection or clan protection.
2. High Ratio of illicit Small Arms presence in
Somalia
• There are between 850 000 to 950 000 privatelyowned illegal
firearms in Somalia
• It is estimated 42 out of every 100 Somalies own a weopen.
• Out of 178 countries , Somalia ranks at 58 in total civilian firearm
possession.
• Law to register a weapon or to record the sale is not exist. Any Law
enforcement Authority
3. Somali Arms at Work in Somalia
• Al-shabaab Militants has been fighting Amisom backed troops in
Mogdishu for many years.
• Somalia has no means of weapons manufacturing but there is no
shortage of small arms. Easy access to Small Arms and lack of
accountability.
• There is a light number of small arms and light weapons and technical
armory( a type of vehicle modified to be used in combat) in
circulation often in the hands 0f clan milities.
• Scarcity of resources such as limited of pasture and drinkable water
bring unnecessary conflicts,
4. Recommendation to Effective reduction of Small Arms
• Somali Diaspora groups encouraging alternative measures like botton
up policies from village-level to urban level peace and reconcillation.
Peace –building activities address community capacity to manage
peace and resolve conflicts thoughapplication of traditional and
enviromentally relevant mechanisme in Somalia.
• Somali Diaspora and civil society groups must create awareness
programs and selection process to communicate local problems from
village to city level to national level ( national forum ).
• Create jobbs
• Qualified facilitators are required to educate the population
particulariy the militias with risk awareness.
5. • Ease inter-ethnic tensions to reduce demand for small arms and
disrupt the main routes of illicit small arms comming into Somalia
