ISBN 978-92-9485-210-6 DOI 10.2847/531878 Catalogue number BZ-AB-20-001-EN-N ISSN 2314-9701 Foreword With Europe experiencing yet again an increase in the number of applications for international protection in 2019 (for the first time since 2015), asylum remains a high priority in the EU policy agenda. As the trends change over time, we remain collectively working toward providing optimal solutions to persons in need of protection, while maintaining the integrity of national asylum systems. The 2020 edition of the EASO Asylum Report offers a concise and comprehensive overview of key developments in international protection and the functioning of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS). To produce its annual flagship report, the European Asylum Support Office (EASO) collects and analyses information from a wide range of reliable sources to provide an in‐depth look at policy changes and improvements over the course of the year, while underlining challenges which remain to be addressed. As EASO celebrates its 10-year anniversary in 2020, we are reminded of the agency’s growing importance in providing operational and technical assistance in asylum matters to EU+ countries. The information produced by EASO is vital to enable policy-makers to make informed decisions, to enable countries to cope with an ever-changing landscape of migratory patterns and to empower national administrations in processing, case by case, a continuous stream of applications. We look forward to the long-awaited adoption of a new regulation for the European Union Asylum Agency, which will transform EASO into a fully-fledged EU agency, strengthen its role and expand its mandate. As the centre of expertise on asylum, EASO will continue to provide service-oriented, impartial and transparent support toward the effective implementation of CEAS. I am grateful for the on-going collaboration with all our partners towards common, transparent and sustainable asylum systems across Europe. Efficient systems can respond rapidly to the changing patterns in migration flows and ensure a clear, fair and dignified process to each applicant for international protection. We are already seeing global and national situations emerging in 2020 which may lead to more people seeking refuge. Now, more than ever, we must continue to work towards a truly common European asylum system by attaining convergence in addressing the needs for international protection and showing solidarity with Member States which are under the greatest pressure. Nina Gregori Executive Director European Asylum Support Office 4 EASO Asylum Report 2020 Acknowledgements We would like to thank a number of partner organisations which actively contributed to this year’s edition of the EASO Asylum Report 2020 through contributions, consultations or feedback during the drafting process. Primary facts and information were obtained from EU+ countries with the coordination of the European Migration Network (EMN). We are also grateful to the European Commission for its continued support and feedback during the drafting process. Colleagues from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) also provided input produced by its experts. In particular, we express our gratitude to asylum and reception authorities in EU+ countries for the continuous cooperation in the area of information exchange throughout the year. The contributions of national asylum experts involved in EASO’s thematic networks are invaluable in helping EASO maintain an accurate and up-to-date overview of asylum-related developments in Europe and beyond. Through various channels, civil society organisations, academia and research institutions provide EASO with research findings and input from the ground. To present the full picture of asylum in 2019 and take account of all perspectives, contributions from these institutions and organisations were included in this report.

  • Would an Improvement in Humanitarian Action Solve the Migrant Crisis?

Would an improvement in humanitarian action solve the migrant crisis? “Humanity is rallying to finally recognize that assisting is not a choice. It is a col- lective responsibility,” by Ger Duany.1 Over the last few months, millions of people have fled their homes in the Middle East, Africa and Asia, escaping from war, disaster, and other crises. The daily flow of men, women and children has become one of the largest refugee exoduses since World War II. Refugees or migrants are seeking asylum and a better life in the European Union, while travelling thousands of miles and facing many forms of dan- ger.2 “Global trends, such as climate variability, demographic change, financial and energy sector pressures or changing geo-political factors”3 are changing the human- itarian landscape. This article discusses the connection of humanitarian action and the current situ- ation referred to as the “migrant crisis” in Europe. Due to the newly faced circum- stances of human suffering, a reshaping of the way of delivering humanitarian aid is unavoidable. Humanitarian action is defined as “life-saving services, and [it] fa- cilitates the return to normalcy for people and communities affected by natural and man-made disasters.”4 It has to satisfy acute needs and face the challenge of ful- filling the demands to promote a “sustainable and resilient development”5 in cri- sis-prone countries. DISPLACEMENT REACHING THE HIGH POINT The global number of people who are forced to migrate is the greatest ever record- ed.

Retsensent: ………………………………….. /nimi/ (…………./teaduskraad/), ………………………………….. /amet/ ABSTRACT A growing awareness of the gender-specific experiences of women in war and post-war conditions have gradually introduced the term “substantive representation of women” to the attention of institutions and individuals concerned with peace and security, from whose agenda it had thus far been absent. Both scholars and policy-makers dealing with the issue of gender and security have reached a general agreement that peace processes should reflect women’s substantive representation, meaning that women’s interests should be included in official peace agreements. The main purpose of this paper was to answer the question, what are the factors accounting for the substantive representation of women in peace. That was done through an in-depth analysis of the peace processes in El Salvador, Guatemala and Colombia, combining within-case process tracing with cross-case comparison. The occurrence of the substantive representation of women in peace processes was analysed focusing on three dimensions – location of representational activities, critical actors, and means of expressing SRW.

Wolff1 Biology Department Trinity Christian College 6601 West College Drive Palos Heights, IL 60463 USA The following is a list of the jumping spiders that have been reported from the Caribbean region. We have interpreted this in a broad sense, so that all islands from Trinidad to the Bahamas have been included. Furthermore, we have included Bermuda, even though it is well north of the Caribbean region proper, as a more logical extension of the island fauna rather than the continental North American fauna. This was mentioned by Banks (1902b) nearly a century ago. Country or region (e. g., pantropical) records are included for those species which have broader ranges than the Caribbean area. We have not specifically included the islands of the Florida Keys, even though these could legitimately be included in the Caribbean region, because the known fauna is mostly continental. However, when Florida is known as the only continental U.S.A.

  • A LIST of the JUMPING SPIDERS of MEXICO. David B. Richman and Bruce Cutler
    PECKHAMIA 62.1, 11 October 2008 ISSN 1944-8120 This is a PDF version of PECKHAMIA 2(5): 63-88, December 1988. Pagination of the original document has been retained. 63 A LIST OF THE JUMPING SPIDERS OF MEXICO. David B. Richman and Bruce Cutler The salticids of Mexico are poorly known. Only a few works, such as F. O. Pickard-Cambridge (1901), have dealt with the fauna in any depth and these are considerably out of date. Hoffman (1976) included jumping spiders in her list of the spiders of Mexico, but the list does not contain many species known to occur in Mexico and has some synonyms listed. It is our hope to present a more complete list of Mexican salticids. Without a doubt such a work is preliminary and as more species are examined using modern methods a more complete picture of this varied fauna will emerge. The total of 200 species indicates more a lack of study than a sparse fauna. We would be surprised if the salticid fauna of Chiapas, for example, was not larger than for all of the United States. Unfortunately, much of the tropical forest may disappear before this fauna is fully known. The following list follows the general format of our earlier (1978) work on the salticid fauna of the United States and Canada. We have not prepared a key to genera, at least in part because of the obvious incompleteness of the list. We hope, however, that this list will stimulate further work on the Mexican salticid fauna.

  • WHO/HAC) Highlights - No 34: Monday, 8 November 2004
    Health Action in Crises (WHO/HAC) Highlights - No 34: Monday, 8 November 2004 The WHO/HQ Department for Health Action in Crises aims to produce a running note on select current issues at weekly intervals. This note—which is by no means exhaustive— is designed for internal use and does not reflect the official position of WHO. SUDAN - Darfur Crisis - Assessments and events: • Throughout the Darfur, clinically diagnosed malaria still accounts for most mortality and morbidity reported through the WHO-instigated Early Warning and Response Network (EWARN). • In North Darfur, preparations have begun for the 21 November polio campaign. Service provision agreements have been established between WHO, UNICEF, and NGOs for certain Sudan Liberation Army (SLA) areas. • A gap analysis in West Darfur has highlighted a chronic shortage of health staff and facilities. ¾ Only four out of six hospitals are providing services. ¾ There is one surgeon and no paediatricians, obstetricians, gynaecologists, ophthalmologists, orthopaedic surgeons, or dentists. ¾ There is no transport (e.g., ambulances) in the health sector. • It is with great sadness that we report the death of Ministry of Health Surgeon Dr Ihab on 5 November during a hold-up on the Nyala-Kass Road, South Darfur. Actions: • In West Darfur, WHO rehabilitated the laboratory, blood bank, gynaecology, female surgical and medical wards of El Geneina State Hospital, as well as contributed a generator, electrical goods and furniture. WHO also provided inputs to six rural hospitals that—in total—serve an estimated population of 336,240. • In West Darfur, WHO donated 10,000 Rapid Diagnostic Tests (to assist in the diagnosis of malaria) and 11 Basic Emergency Kits (each meeting the needs of a population of 1,000 for a period of three months) to NGOs.

  • Cargo Theft Report SUPPLY CHAIN INTELLIGENCE CENTER EMEA
    Q2-2019 Cargo Theft Report SUPPLY CHAIN INTELLIGENCE CENTER EMEA Introduction The SensiGuard™ Supply Chain Intelligence Center (SCIC) continues to collect data to provide a clear picture of cargo theft within the EMEA region to our partners. In the second quarter of 2019, the SCIC has been able to collect a total of 1,423 incidents. This is lower than Q2-2018, when there were 1,739 incidents collected, a decrease of 18%. It is important to highlight that this is not because the cargo theft rate has decreased, but because some of our data-sharing partners did not have their data available when the report was being written. This data will become available at a later date and the SCIC will include this in future reports. As in previous quarters, the following heat map shows that the majority of reported incidents are confined to countries in Western Europe. However, this quarter the SCIC was able to record various incidents in Russia, with the help of a new partner in this part of the region. The SCIC would like to highlight that the countries that are featured in this report are much better at reporting cargo theft incidents than the ones that are not mentioned. It is important to point out that this is not because cargo theft is not occurring in these areas. sensitech.com Year on Year Comparison of Total Cargo This is lower than Q2-2018, when the total value was Crime €39,509,371 and the average value was €68,002.
