Climate change is fast pushing the poorest and most marginalized communities beyond their capacity to respond. This report draws on case studies from around the world and on Oxfam's experience working with rural communities. It sets out what is needed to enable people living in poverty to adapt to climate change, and a range of interventions that are available. Oxfam's approach brings together experience in the areas of livelihoods, natural resource management, and Disaster Risk Reduction, with robust decision making in order to manage uncertainty and risk, and

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) approved a record $16.1 billion in financing operations, a 42% increase over the $11.3 billion approved the previous year. The increase was made possible by ADB's fifth general capital increase, which tripled ADB's capital base from $55 billion to $165 billion, the biggest in ADB history and the first in 15 years. While economic recovery is under way, ADB has estimated that about 71 million people living on less than $2 a day (54 million of them living on less then $1.25 a day) could have escaped poverty if growth rates had stayed at 2007 levels.

Ten years ago, world leaders agreed to take decisive action to combat world poverty in its different dimensions. Using time-bound and measurable targets, they agreed that by 2015:

• Poverty and hunger should be reduced by one half,
• Full primary education for all should be ensured,
• Gender disparity should be eliminated,
• Maternal and child mortality should be reduced by two thirds and three quarters respectively,
• The spread of HIV/AIDS and incidence of malaria and other major diseases should be halted,
• Environmental sustainability should be ensured,

Climate change is fast pushing communities, particularly the poorest and most marginalized, beyond their capacity to respond. Across the world, subsistence crops are approaching the limits of their viability as temperatures change; erratic rainfall patterns and changing seasons are upsetting agricultural cycles and leaving many struggling to feed their families; and rising sea levels are causing the inundation of crops and the contamination of water supplies with salt water.

It is very clear that water-related disease is responsible for a significant proportion of the global burden of illness. It is equally clear that, while there is significant progress towards the Millennium Development Goal target for drinking water, sanitation is falling woefully short of the target. Provisioning of adequate sanitation has not managed to keep up with population growth and the aggregate number of unserved people has increased over the past 2 years. Projections by the United Nations show that the world will miss the latter target by almost a billion people.

Le rapport sur la situation en Afrique publié dans le cadre de la Journée mondiale de lutte contre le paludisme 2010, est lancé à New York, avec la participation de l'UNICEF et du Partenariat Roll Back Malaria (RBM). Ce document est le deuxième rapport de la collection « progrès et impact » publié par RBM, il attire l'attention sur le fait que l'Afrique connaît actuellement une augmentation et une accélération des progrès. Ainsi, entre 2004 et 2009, le financement externe de la lutte contre le paludisme s'est décuplé, pour atteindre presque 1,8 milliards

Due to the spread of pyrethroid-resistance in malaria vectors in Africa, new strategies and tools are urgently needed to better control malaria transmission. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performances of a new mosaic long-lasting insecticidal net (LLIN), i.e. PermaNet 3.0, against wild pyrethroid-resistant Anopheles gambiae s.l. in West and Central Africa.
