Avoir une vision et l’ambition de réaliser de grandes
choses est un but que beaucoup de personnes se fixent,
sans pourtant les réaliser. Mais, atteindre ses objectifs et
concrétiser des projets suppose l’adoption d’un état

C’est dans cette dynamique que nous aborderons la
question du leadership et du développement personnel.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

usual
What are the consequences of the technical
recommendations / activities on SSA / FF?
Why consequences of the same technical innovation
may be different in different contexts?
So, need to understand if and why the technical issue is
a success. Need for concepts and contextualization
Definition issues are important. But, the most
important is to know them, rather than
getting an unique and universal definition

characteristics and dynamics of SSA-FF and their integration into the
national economy.
– the identification of existing typologies, and how they have contributed -or
not- to the design and implementation of targeted public policy;
– the identification of necessary information to measure or estimate the
contribution of SSA - FF to food, feed and non food production, food security,
employment -especially women and young- and the provision of ecosystem
services;
– the analysis of business models of the different kind of farms and of the
modalities of public support (economic or social) that impacts farm incomes
• (Issues of access to market, to credit and the social policies for most vulnerable farmers /
examples of success and failures;
– the situation of SSA-FF’s access to resources: land, water, capital as
conditions for their sustainability in a global changing environment
– the elements of a prospective reflexion on how the SSA-FF could play a role
at improving food security, tackling poverty, aligning agricultural income with
the one of other sectors
35. Deliverables
5 national reports (2)
• The identification of the websites of
organizations that focuses on the support to
SSA-FF in the country in terms of :
• research, promotion of innovation and policy tools;
• supply of credit services, market information,
technical and economic support;
• contribution of producers’ organizations, activities
targeted to SSA-FF, their governance, and their
capacity buildings programs.
• identifying the contribution of public institutions
involved in SSA-FF’s support.
36. Deliverables
5 national reports (3)
• A documented and historical analysis of the support that
SSA-FF are receiving through public policy, including:
– the identification of strategies, policies, programs or projects
specifically focused on SSA-FF, especially those with positive
results (case studies);
– a business models analysis of success stories aiming at linking
SSA-FF to markets and value chains. The analysis of the
reasons for this success, when documented, will be included.
• An executive summary to be presented at the final
national workshop
– WS with key partners aiming at identifying common actions
that promote the development of SSA-FF, in the framework of a
future national strategy for SSA-FF
37. Deliverables
Regional Synthesis Summary Report
• A regional synthesis summary report based on the 5 validated national
reports, summarizing the reports of national dialogues & meetings and
including:
– An analysis of the dynamics of family / smallholder agriculture, conditions
to improve their productivity and to better access and benefit from
markets/value chains
• (issues of rural youth jobs, and to the sustainability of production systems);
– Proposals for concrete actions to overcome the deficiencies and gaps
identified in terms of knowledge and coordination; in terms of lack of
professionalization of farmers associations
– Policy recommendations that would lead to a medium-term development
plan MTDP for the development of SSA-FF
• in order for FAO and its partners to establish plans of action with options for
scientific collaboration with Research Organisations, Cirad and CIHEAM
• Final regional workshop planned at the end of the study with participation
of national and international coordinators for presenting results
organized by FAO (including activities for the preparation of the program).

debate on results, with eventually the facilitation
of a political dialogue and the formalization of
final proposals and recommendations.
42. Perspective and vision…built on the
“lessons learnt”• FAO
– RI framework: improved coordination and integration with partners involved
– Proposals :
• knowledge platform to share informations - strengthening appropriation of results of
actions supporting Family Farming
• Exchange mechanisms (exchange experience and skills..) on FF& SSA
• Countries
– Thematic Workshop (employment opportunities for youth, rural
diversification of activities, gender approach, public policy tools…)
– To feed Prospectives (Agriculture for the futur ? Farms models ? Tenure
legislation? Rural society..)
• Research
– Conjointly building of research questions (typologies of SSA, technical
model,…) and assisting capacity building (training sessions …)
– Promote research networks and research activities in line with your efforts

Editor's Notes
What is important is the link between domestic sphere and production activities, between an household and a production unit.
Considering the nature of this link, there is a gradient of situations, from « pure » family farms to « pure » corporate farms.
But, to measure FF numbers and contribution, we propose, considering this continuum, to distinguish 3 global ideal types of agriculture.
The most relevant and operational criteria to qualify the proximity between household and production unit is the nature of the labor mobilized.
The first ideal type is FF, defined as a form of agricultural operation where the domestic sphere and production activities share organic links, and which mobilizes only family workers, excluding permanent hired labor.
The second ideal type is FBF, which share FF and CF characteristics, labor is a mix of family and full time hired labor.
The third one is CF, totally disconnected to family and functioning only with hired workers.
These typology can be consistent with national agricultural census.
It looks radical, but it gives an objective and comprehensive approach to identify and measure FF at a global level and insist on strategies rather than size or ideology.
Following this pathway, you reach high incomes, and also what Peter Timmer called in 2009 a world without agriculture.
And he gives evidences, the richer your country is, the lower is the agriculture GDP share, and the lower is the agriculture employment share.
And that the way it goes.

Third, the employment challenge is huge, specially in SSA and South Asia. Their urban and rural population will continue to increase for the next decades. It’s not because urban part of the population is growing that rural population in numbers diminish. How can these national economies absorb both the continuing flows of workers arriving on urban and rural labor markets + those who are expected to leave agriculture.
And finally, still with our definition, we have no evidence of FF goods practices in naturel resources management.
If their living condition and access to natural resources make them vulnerable, FF can destroy these natural resources. All FF are not acting in a sustainable way.
On the diagram we can see that they implement technical systems with strong environmental impacts, and that they can also be highly dependent on agri-supplies.
But evidence exist also on their specific knowledge of their ecosystem, and on their best practices when conditions access are fair.
FF can potentially manage, if they benefit from the right supports, a sustainable agroecology.
