MULTIMEDIA SIMULATION ON LAND USE PLANNING AROUND HAZARDOUS INDUSTRIAL SITES
UNECE organized a seminar on Land-Use Planning around Hazardous Industrial Sites on 11-12 November 2010 in The Hague under the auspices of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on the Transboundary Effects of Industrial Accidents and The Committee on Housing and Land Management. (...) The simulation allowed participants to understand the different, and at times competing, points of view regarding planning and industrial safety.
The simulation presented the fictional town of Unch with plans to develop residential areas including the required services for shopping, leisure, health and education. Performance indicators were set up in order to compare alternative plans for development that had an impact on economic activity, quality of life, safety concerns and the environment.

Nicaragua is making progress towards the Millennium Development Goals, but is set to miss a number of targets in 2015. (...) Any boost to public spending and financing would have to be front-loaded, which would entail pernicious macroeconomic trade-offs. (...) Search publications

Improve the flow and use of budgeted resources for service delivery, including at the subnational level.
Our work is guided by the commitments countries made in the Convention on the Rights of the Child , the Sustainable Development Goals – which call for the better use of public funds – and our own strategic plan . Domestic resource mobilization, public expenditure tracking and reporting are also central the Addis Ababa Action Agenda on Financing for Development .

The Atlas finds countries are making progress on creating policies, plans, and laws for mental health, which provide the bedrock for good governance and service development. Two-thirds of countries have a policy or plan and half have a stand-alone mental health law. (...) WHO’s Mental Health Atlas provides the baseline data to measure progress on the action plan targets. The 2014 edition is the fourth and newest edition, with data on the availability of mental health services and resources across the world, including financial allocations, human resources and specialized facilities for mental health from 171 countries.

CHANGES IN PUBLIC EXPENDITURE ON SOCIAL PROTECTION IN ARAB COUNTRIES
An increase in social protection spending
in 2011 has not been maintained. Tunisia saw rapid increases in spending on social protection in 2011
and 20122, while health spending increased only slightly, education spending was static and housing
spending declined.
(...) Education and health spending were fairly static, while housing spending has declined.
(...) Other initiatives include policies like increases in infrastructure spending to try to promote
inclusive growth (for example in Oman), investment in housing, as in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, and
regional development plans, as in Morocco.
