Water scarcity continues to pose serious problems to households in Africa. This is very critical in Nigeria especially in some States like Enugu State where over half (2.37 million) of the residents
This proposal will examine two key research objectives that have not been well explored: First, it will examine the role of access to electricity on household’s food security and the nutritional
Abstract
Background
Primary healthcare (PHC) systems attain improved health outcomes and fairness and are affordable. However, the proportion of PHC spending to Total Current Health Expenditure in Kenya reduced from 63.4% in 2016/17 to 53.9% in 2020/21 while external funding reduced from 28.3% (Ksh 69.4 billion) to 23.9% (Ksh 68.2 billion) over the same period. This reduction in PHC spending negatively affects PHC performance and the overall health system goals.
Methods
Pricing environmental externalities to reduce fossil fuel emissions might entail negative outcomes for other development targets, such as health and poverty. This proposal asks what would be optimal
The study will use household surveys from several African and Asian countries to examine how electricity reliability and quality, prices, gender dynamics, and other variables affect electric cooking
This study seeks to address the following research question: “What is the impact of urban farming and insect-composted organic fertilizer on food and nutrition security in informal settlements?” Using
The blooming of aquaculture production, despite contributing greatly to food security and economic growth, gave rise to various environmental problems that affect the industry itself, people’s well
Benefits from aquaculture for livelihood of producers and global food security are well documented, however, concerns from potential impacts on the environment and human health can put this industry
The diverse aquaculture sector makes important contributions toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)/Agenda 2030, and can increasingly do so in the future. Its important role for food security, nutrition, livelihoods, economies, and cultures is not clearly visible in the Agenda 21 declaration. This may partly reflect the state of development of policies for aquaculture compared with its terrestrial counterpart, agriculture, and possibly also because aquaculture production has historically originated from a few key hotspot regions/countries.
