Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction 2021 Special Report on Drought
United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR) Droughts have deep and widespread impacts on societies, ecosystems, and economies, and incur costs that are borne disproportionately by the most vulnerable people. Even though they span large areas and linger through time, affecting millions of people and contributing to food insecurity, poverty, and inequality, their extensive impacts are consistently underreported. As we move towards a 2˚C warmer world, urgent action is required to better understand and more effectively manage drought risk to reduce their devastating toll. This report explores the systemic nature of droughts and how they impact the achievement of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction, the SDGs, and human and ecosystems.

Towards Sustainable Renewable Energy Investment and Deployment Trade-offs and Opportunities with Water Resources and the Environment United Nations
This toolkit for renewable energy policy-makers and investors builds on the work already done by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) towards sustainably increasing renewable energy investments and improving cross-sectoral planning in decision-making processes. The Renewable Energy Hard Talk events held in Bosnia and Herzegovina (2018) and Serbia (2019) included a Nexus component for this purpose. Substantively, the approach used drew from the nexus assessment work under the UNECE Water Convention and evolved into a list of criteria for sustainable renewable energy policies and investment initiatives that bring multiple benefits across sectors and countries while minimizing tradeoffs, including with other water uses and environment protection.

Resilience in a Riskier World – Managing Systemic Risks From Biological and Other Natural Hazards United Nations
This publication presents a new and extended analysis of the regional risk-scape based on multidisciplinary research conducted. It defines risk hotspots where disasters and biological hazards, climate and health emergencies – including COVID-19 – collide. It further presents the emergence of new systemic risks and cascading hazards, alongside their impacts on peoples and economies. Identifying regional and subregional gaps in building resilience into the disaster-health-climate nexus, the report provides tailored, sub-regional insights into opportunities for policy actions and operational solutions to build back better with resilience. The ability to identify and address the unmet needs of those furthest behind within the new risk-scape is also considered here, as is the fiscal cost of a resilience agenda for the region.

UNESCO Science Report 2021
The Race Against Time for Smarter Development
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Over the past five years, countries of all income levels have prioritized their transition to digital and ‘green’ economies. This reflects a double imperative: On one hand, the clock is ticking for countries to reach their SDGs by 2030. On the other hand, countries are convinced that their future economic competitiveness will depend upon how quickly they transition to digital societies. The seventh edition of this report monitors the development path that countries have followed over the past five years from the science governance perspective. It documents the rapid societal transformation under way, which offers new opportunities for social and economic experimentation, but also risks exacerbating social inequalities, unless safeguards are put in place.

World Economic Situation and Prospects 2021 United Nations
This is the definitive report on the state of the world economy, providing global/ regional economic outlook for 2020 and 2021. A once-in-a-century crisis—a Great Disruption unleashed by a viral pandemic—hit the world economy in 2020, reaching every corner of the world, infecting more than 90 million and killing close to two. Economic activities were paralyzed in both developed and developing economies. Trade and tourism halted while job and output losses exceeded levels seen in any previous crisis. Poverty increased sharply and inequality reached new highs. Stimulus packages were rolled out but responses, however, entailed difficult choices between saving lives and saving livelihoods.

Social Outlook for Asia and the Pacific The Protection We Want United Nations
Social protection is a fundamental right and serves as an enabler for achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Social protection has been identified as one of the key enablers for implementing the 2030 Agenda and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In most countries, however, large population groups remain unprotected from normal life contingencies. Meanwhile, unprecedented demographic transformations are underway, and the changing world of work introduces new risks for the majority of workers currently occupying jobs in the informal sector. This publication provides the evidence and impetus to progressively realize social protection for all over the next decade (Decade for Action), based on country-specific contexts, opportunities and challenges.

Economic and Social Survey of Asia and the Pacific 2021 Towards Post-COVID-19 Resilient Economies United Nations
Building resilience into policy frameworks and institutions requires aligning fiscal and monetary policies and structural reforms with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. This report proposes an illustrative “build forward better” policy package for resilient post-COVID-19 economies. It aims to ensure universal access to healthcare and social protection, close the digital divide, and strengthen climate and clean energy actions. The proposed policy actions would likely add minimal fiscal burden for most, with the exception of some less developed Asia-Pacific countries. Policy options to meet immediate and medium-term financing needs for building resilience are also examined herein — including debt service suspensions, debt swaps for development, sovereign bond financing, public debt management, emergency financing mechanisms, and sustainable investing by public institutional investors.

Survey of Economic and Social Developments 2019-2020 Realities and Prospects in the Arab Region United Nations
This annual flagship publication seeks to both analyze routinely monitored economic and social variables in the Arab region in a global context as well as address debt sustainability and the macroeconomic implications. Given that the COVID-19 pandemic will have significant repercussions in 2021 and beyond, it is crucial to understand how Arab countries are dealing with the economic impact of the virus. The report sets out two scenarios: a baseline scenario projecting that the economy will rebound in the first quarter of 2021; and a pessimistic scenario in which the crisis will persist throughout the first quarter of 2021. However, given considerable advancements in research on COVID-19 vaccines, an economic rebound should be expected. Publication Date: June 2021 ISBN: 9789211284140 Language: E

LDCs in the Post-COVID World – Learning From 50 Years of Experience
United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) This publication reports 50 years of development since the establishment of the LDC category in 1971. LDC’s growth has not closed the income gap with other developing countries. This stems from the inefficacy of domestic and international policies in addressing structural impediments to structural transformation, i.e. low levels of productive capacities, excessive exports, limited policy space, weak State capacity, technological backwardness, limited entrepreneurial development and insufficient human capital investment. For the coming decade, the report proposes an overhaul of policies and strategies in favour of initiatives that centre on the development of productive capacities and led by a developmental state. This aligns foreign agents’ dealings with LDCs to national development goals and priorities. Publication Date: October 2021 ISBN: 9789211130065 Language: E

The Convention on the Rights of the Child United Nations Essential Documents Series United Nations
Thirty years ago, world leaders made a historic commitment to the world’s children by adopting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. This Convention, one of the core human rights instruments, has become the most widely ratified human rights treaty in history and has helped transform children’s lives around the world. It is up to our generation to demand that governments, businesses and communities fulfil their commitments and take action for child rights now, once and for all. The e-book for this publication has been converted into an accessible format for the visually impaired and people with print reading disabilities.

A Child’s Right to Rights United Nations
Written from the perspective of a child, this book explains in simple text many of the rights that are found in the United Nations’ Convention of the Rights of the Child: from the right to play, to learn, and to share thoughts freely to protection from harmful work, violence, and exploitation. Young readers will learn that each one of them is important, but together these rights help kids everywhere live healthy and happy lives. This beautifully illustrated book contains drawings and paintings created by children from around the world—the winners of an international drawing competition titled “Kids for Human Rights”— illustrating each of the rights.

State of the World’s Indigenous Peoples Rights to Lands, Territories and Resources United Nations
This publication offers a perspective on indigenous peoples’ rights to territories and resources, examining legislation and agreements, identifying successful practices and continued obstacles, and suggesting ways forward. The right to selfdetermination and the right to natural resources on indigenous territories remain politicized more than 10 years later. The importance of indigenous knowledge and territorial rights is becoming more widely acknowledged. Moreover, the 2030 Agenda’s integrated approach to economic, environmental and social development within a human rights framework gives space to demonstrate how indigenous stewardship of lands, territories and resources can achieve accelerated action towards implementation of several SDGs.

Understanding what Shapes Child Well-being in Rich Countries
United Nations Children's Fund, Office of Research-Innocenti (UNICEF-IRC) For the last 20 years, the Innocenti Report Card series has led the way in comparing children’s well-being across rich countries. Report Card 16 develops this further through a multilevel approach to show that children’s well-being is influenced by children’s own actions and relationships, by the networks and resources of their caregivers, and by public policies and the national context. This approach is aligned with the 1989 United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, in that it recognizes the responsibilities of governments, families and communities to help realize children’s rights and promote their well-being.

United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) This publication argues that addressing this double bind is critical to achieving sustainable development and presents an integrated policy agenda for doing so. The report finds large gender gaps in extreme poverty rates, especially between the ages of 25 and 34, coinciding with the phase of life oriented around family formation. To address this, public action must be geared towards supporting women at critical stages of their life through a combination of gender-responsive social protection and labor market interventions, as well as investments in time-saving public services and infrastructure.

The Feminist Plan maps the ambitious and transformative policies – on livelihoods, care, and the environment – that are needed to build a more equal and sustainable future. To get there, calls for context-specific policy pathways, tailored political strategies, and financing.

It includes discussions on illicit rosewood, ivory, rhino horn, pangolin scales, live reptiles, tigers and other big cats, and European eel. The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted that wildlife crime is a threat not only to the environment and biodiversity, but also to human health, economic development and security. Zoonotic diseases – those caused by pathogens that spread from animals to humans – represent up to 75% of all emerging infectious diseases. Trafficked wild species and the resulting products offered for human consumption, by definition, escape any hygiene or sanitary control, and therefore pose even greater risks of infection.

Technology and Innovation Report 2021
Catching Technological Waves - Innovation With Equity
United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) This report examines the likelihood of frontier technologies widening existing inequalities and creating new ones. It also addresses the national and international policies, instruments and institutional reforms that are needed to create a more equal world of opportunity for all, leaving no one behind. The report shows that frontier technologies already represent a $350 billion market, which could grow to $3.2 trillion by 2025. This offers great opportunities for those ready to catch this technological wave. But many countries, especially the least developed and those in sub-Saharan Africa, are unprepared to equitably use, adopt and adapt to the ongoing technological revolution. This could have serious implications for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Publication Date: April 2021 ISBN: 9789211130126 Language: E

Outward Foreign Direct Investment and Upgrading by Emerging Market Firms in Global Value Chains United Nations
This publication analyzes emerging market firms upgrading their capabilities to become leading global competitors, suggesting that foreign investment is an upgrading mechanism in global value chains. It introduces a typology of global value chain upgrading strategies based on two dimensions: the type of expansion followed by the emerging market firm (repetition or extension), and the governance relationships between emerging market firms and advanced country lead firms (collaborators or autonomous). This results in four upgrading strategies — dependent, replicative, breakaway, and independent — which are illustrated by analyzing the global value chains of four leading Thai multinationals. The publication concludes with a discussion of government policy supporting each of the upgrading strategies. Publication Date: July 2021 ISBN: 9789211208276 Language: A C E F R S

Commodities and Development Report 2021
Escaping From the Commodity Dependence Trap through Technology and Innovation United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD)
Commodity dependence is a trap: once a country is commodity dependent, it is difficult to develop a productive sector out of commodities and export noncommodity products. This volume argues that without strong action at the highest political level in Commodity-dependent Developing Countries (CDDCs), these countries will remain trapped. It demonstrates how technology and innovation could lead the way to economic and structural transformation in CDDCs, helping to diversify economies and lessen dependence on the commodity sector and, in turn, strengthen productivity growth. Enabling CDDCs to escape from the commodity dependence trap requires cooperation between CDDCs and their trading and development partners with regard to technological acquisition and domestication. At the international level, a framework for technology accessibility and its transfer to CDDCs is required.

COVID-19 and E-commerce: A Global Review
United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) This publication assesses the impact of COVID-19 on e-commerce and digital trade. While the pandemic caused a sharp deceleration in economic activity, it also led to a rapid acceleration of e-commerce. With restrictions on movement and other public health interventions in place, digital solutions have become essential to continued delivery of economic and social activities. And, as the digital economy and e-commerce play an increased role in Sustainable Development, stakeholders at all levels have a responsibility to ensure that these technologies play a positive and powerful role in national and international recovery efforts. Indeed, those that can harness the potential of e-commerce will be better placed to benefit from global markets for their goods and services, while those that fail to do so risk falling behind. Thus, the critical global policy challenge that emerges from this study is that greater efforts are needed to help reduce inequalities in e-trade readiness that currently prevail amongst countries.

Our Common Agenda: Report of the Secretary-General United Nations
On the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the United Nations and in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Member States came together to recognize that our challenges are interconnected and can be addressed only through reinvigorated multilateralism with the United Nations at the centre of our efforts.
