Breaking Down Barriers for Improved Health of Young Generations: a Multisectoral Approach Side Event at the 136Th IPU Assembly Sunday 2 April 2017 1.30 – 3.00 P.M Breaking down barriers for improved health of young generations: A multisectoral approach Side event at the 136th IPU Assembly Sunday 2 April 2017 1.30 – 3.00 p.m. Windy Town room, first floor, Bangabandhu International Convention Centre (BICC) A light lunch will be served Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals will in large part depend on countries’ ability to adequately invest in the health of the largest adolescent cohort the world has ever seen. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development set ambitious targets for improved health and wellbeing as part of a comprehensive approach to eradicating poverty and stimulating development. The Every Woman Every Child (EWEC) Global Strategy for Women’s, Children’s and Adolescents’ Health (Global Strategy), launched by the UN Secretary‐General in September 2015, provides a roadmap for the achievement of the SDG targets related to women’s, children’s’ and adolescents’ health. The IPU has made a commitment to support the Global Strategy, pledging to engage the global parliamentary community in ensuring national accountability for results and for allocating resources for women’s, children’s and adolescents’ health from domestic sources. Improving health outcomes is dependent on many factors that fall outside of the health sector; research shows that about half of the gains in the health sector result from investments in other sectors. The EWEC Global Strategy, in line with this evidence, promotes an approach to ensuring adolescent health and well‐being that includes multisectoral approaches and innovative partnerships that account for social determinants and health‐enhancing sectors. While the evidence demonstrates that multisectoral policies and interventions are essential to achieving better health and wellbeing for adolescents, siloed structures, programmes and financing in most countries, and globally, often render this difficult. This side event will identify concrete measures that parliaments can take to overcome the barriers to coordinated design and implementation of policies that facilitate multi‐stakeholder and multi‐ sectoral action for improved adolescent health outcomes. Participants will be invited to discuss the following key questions: • What can parliaments do to help develop and implement policies and interventions across sectors? How can parliamentarians use their government’s commitment to implement the Global Strategy to advance progress on addressing adolescents’ needs? • Which critical partners should parliaments engage with to implement these actions? • How can parliamentarians advocate the determinants of adolescent health? What good parliamentary practices exist? What personal experiences can parliamentarians share? Agenda 1.30‐1.35 Welcome, Helga Fogstad, Executive Director, PMNCH 1.35‐1.45 Opening remarks, Martin Chungong, IPU Secretary General 1.45‐2.55 Panel discussion • Dr. Ian Askew, Director, Department of Reproductive Health and Research, WHO ‐ Improving adolescent health: It Takes a Village • Ms. Nkandu Luo, Member of Parliament, Zambia ‐ Country example on comprehensive national plan • Mr. Faustine Ndugulile, Member of Parliament, Tanzania ‐ Country example on early marriage • Ms. Gerda Verburg, Coordinator, Scaling Up Nutrition (SUN) Movement, Nutrition policies for improved adolescent health 2.55‐3.00 Wrap up Helga to wrap up – include reference to the adolescent health debate and to the addendum Biographies Martin Chungong, Secretary General, IPU A Cameroonian national, Martin Chungong made double history by becoming the first‐ever African and the first non‐European to be elected as IPU Secretary General in the Organization’s 126‐year history. With more than three decades of experience and knowledge of parliaments at national and international level, Mr Chungong has dedicated his professional life to promoting and building democracy world‐wide. Following a 14‐year career span with the Cameroonian Parliament, Mr Chungong has already spent more than 20 distinguished years at IPU. Prior to being elected as the eighth IPU Secretary General, he was the Organization’s Deputy Secretary General and Director of Programmes. Through his work on developing programmes to help parliaments become more transparent, accountable, representative and effective democratic institutions, he has become a leader in his field. Since 2012, Mr Chungong has made a push to strengthen parliamentary engagement on sustainable development and accountability through his role as Parliamentary Representative on the Steering Committee of the Global Partnership for Effective Development Cooperation. He is also leading IPU’s work to dramatically reduce maternal and child mortality rates through effective legislation and its implementation as well as ensuring governments’ accountability to international commitments in this area.

  • Zambia 2013 Human Rights Report
    ZAMBIA 2013 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Zambia is a constitutional republic governed by a democratically elected president and a unicameral national assembly. International and local observers considered national elections held in 2011 to be generally free and fair. Security forces reported to civilian authorities. Serious human rights abuses occurred during the year. The most important were abuses by security forces, including reports of unlawful killings, torture, and beatings; life-threatening prison conditions; and restrictions on freedom of speech, assembly, and association. Other serious human rights problems included arbitrary arrest, prolonged pretrial detention, arbitrary interference with privacy, government corruption, violence and discrimination against women, child abuse, trafficking in persons, discrimination against persons with disabilities and members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community, restrictions on labor rights, forced labor, and child labor. The government took limited steps to prosecute officials suspected of corruption or human rights abuses during the year; however, impunity remained a problem. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary or Unlawful Deprivation of Life There were several reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. After local police authorities were unable to apprehend three men suspected of several killings, the government directed the military to use deadly force against the suspects. On June 25, after a much-publicized investigation into the killings, army soldiers killed Mika, Fabian, and Stefan Mailoni in Mkushi District. The Human Rights Commission (HRC) criticized the killings. On June 14, soldiers belonging to the Zambia National Service shot and killed unarmed civilians Clement Muloongo and Pumulo Lungwangwa in Kampasa village during a scuffle over land rights.

  • Analysis of the Market Structures and Systems for Indigenous Fruit Trees: the Case for Uapaca Kirkiana in Zambia
    ANALYSIS OF THE MARKET STRUCTURES AND SYSTEMS FOR INDIGENOUS FRUIT TREES: THE CASE FOR UAPACA KIRKIANA IN ZAMBIA by Kaala Bweembelo Moombe Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Forest Science at the University of Stellenbosch Department of Forest and Wood Science Faculty of AgriSciences Supervisor: Mr Cori Ham Co-supervisors: Ms. Jeannette Clark, Dr Steve Franzel and Mr. Pierre Ackerman March 2009 Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically I, Kaala Bweembelo Moombe, declare that the entirety of the work contained in this thesis is my own, original work, that I am the owner of the copyright thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 19th Feburuary 2009 Signature: _ ____ Copyright© 2009 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved ii ABSTRACT This study is about marketing of Uapaca kirkiana fruit in Zambia, a fruit that has great economic value especially among the rural and urban poor. It contributes to general food security. In southern Africa, farmers and other stakeholders have identified Uapaca as a priority species for domestication. Current agroforestry initiatives are promoting integration of indigenous trees into farming systems to provide marketable products for income generation. Domestication of trees however, depends on expanding the market demand for tree products. There is considerable evidence that expanding market opportunities is critical for the success of domestication innovations but farmers have been introduced to domestication with little consideration for marketing. The existing market potential can be achieved through sound knowledge on markets and marketing.
