  • The Use of Pesticides in Developing Countries and Their Impact on Health and the Right to Food
    STUDY Requested by the DEVE committee The use of pesticides in developing countries and their impact on health and the right to food Policy Department for External Relations Directorate General for External Policies of the Union EN PE 653.622 - January 2021 DIRECTORATE-GENERAL FOR EXTERNAL POLICIES POLICY DEPARTMENT STUDY The use of pesticides in developing countries and their impact on health and the right to food ABSTRACT This study provides a broad perspective on the main trends regarding the use of pesticides in developing countries and their impacts on human health and food security. Information is provided on the challenges of controlling these hazardous substances, along with the extent to which pesticides banned within the European Union (EU) are exported to third countries. The analysis assesses the factors behind the continuation of these exports, along with the rising demand for better controls. Recommendations are intended to improve the ability for all people, including future generations, to have access to healthy food in line with United Nations declarations. These recommendations include collaborating with the Rotterdam Convention to strengthen capacity building programmes and the use of the knowledge base maintained by the Convention; supporting collaboration among developing countries to strengthen pesticide risk regulation; explore options to make regulatory risk data more transparent and accessible; strengthen research and education in alternatives to pesticides; stop all exports of crop protection products banned in the EU; only allow the export of severely restricted pesticides if these are regulated accordingly and used properly in the importing country; and support the re-evaluation of pesticide registrations in developing countries to be in line with FAO/WHO Code of Conduct.

ACTION: Notification of 12-month petition finding. SUMMARY: We, NMFS and USFWS, announce a 12-month finding on a petition to identify the Northwest Atlantic population of the leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) as a distinct population segment (DPS) and list it as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). In response to the petition, we completed a comprehensive status review of the species, which also constitutes the 5-year review of the species, to determine potential DPSs following the Policy Regarding the Recognition of Distinct Vertebrate Population Segments Under the ESA and to perform extinction risk analyses. Based on the best scientific and commercial data available, including the Status Review Report, and after taking into account efforts made to protect the species, we conclude that seven populations would meet the discreteness and significance criteria for recognition as DPSs, including the Northwest Atlantic population.

  • Overview of UNHCR's Operations in the Americas
    Regional update - Americas Executive Committee of the 19 September 2017 English High Commissioner’s Programme Original: English and French Sixty-eighth session Geneva, 2-6 October 2017 Overview of UNHCR’s operations in the Americas A. Situational context including new developments Colombia situation The Colombian Government has been implementing the peace agreement with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) since December 2016. The FARC have since turned over more than 7,000 weapons and begun reintegrating into civilian communities. Within this context, UNHCR is supporting the United Nations’ efforts to help stabilize the FARC “demobilization zones” through inter-agency needs assessments and the development of a common response plan. However, the humanitarian situation remains challenging, with illegal armed groups resorting to violence and triggering displacement in remote areas. UNHCR continues to monitor and raise awareness of new displacement, including along the Pacific coast and in the border areas. In Ecuador, UNHCR provides ongoing technical assistance to the Government in relation to the regulatory decree of the human mobility law, which incorporates some of UNHCR’s recommendations. At their request, UNHCR is helping to draft legislation to facilitate the implementation of the law. In addition, the Office is providing technical assistance with other regulations, key protocols and resolutions. With the number of asylum claims, mainly lodged by Colombians and Venezuelans, increasing by 29 per cent when compared to the same period in 2016, UNHCR also supports efforts to strengthen the asylum system. Venezuela situation The deteriorating political and economic situation in Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of) has continued to generate population outflows.
