Les enjeux en termes de sécurité alimentaire, de préservation de l’environnement et de l’amélioration des conditions de vie des populations sont au cœur des objectifs de ce siècle. Face à une croissance démographique galopante et à une forte industrialisation qui induisent des pressions sur les ressources naturelles et accélèrent le changement climatique et la désertification, de nombreuses actions sont mises en place pour parvenir à une neutralité en termes de dégradation des terres. Il s’agit de conserver et de restaurer les différents services écosystémiques, tout en utilisant rationnellement les ressources naturelles pour subvenir aux besoins de la population. Afin d’atteindre cet objectif de neutralité d’ici 2050, se succèdent et se complètent différents projets et initiatives à l’échelle nationale et internationale.

The impression from the new political balances emerging from the 2024 elections is that the European People's Party, which won the electo ...

    The report will soon be available for purchase.   The 2024 Annual Report on the African Economy is dedicated to monetary and financial issues on the Continent. There are three reasons for this choice. African economies are exposed to macro-financial instabilities partly generated by global monetary and financial turbulence.

    Immigration has never been without tensions. In the United States, immigration remains a contentious issue that now, more than ever, dominates election campaigns. A 727-kilometer wall has been constructed on the US-Mexico border to halt the influx of migrants from the south. In Europe, the rise of far-right parties over the past twenty years has culminated in them becoming a major political force in the European Parliament ahead of the June 2024 elections.

    The agricultural sector is responsible for 72% of global water withdrawals, and is the biggest employer of the world’s most vulnerable and poor populations. Still, close to 84% of smallholder farms in low- and middle-income economies are located in water-scarce regions, with less than one third of them having access to irrigation (UN, 2024). These small-scale farmers also bear the heavy weight of land degradation and climate crisis. It is estimated that food production will need to ...
