United Nations World drug report 2023
Book SynopsisFor the first time since its conception, this year the World Drug Report presents the latest global, regional and subregional estimates of and trends in drug demand and supply in a user-friendly, interactive online format. The new online segment is designed to both enhance and simplify access to the wealth of information provided in the report by presenting the data in the form of succinct key messages supported by interactive graphs, infographics, and maps. Booklet 1 takes the form of an executive summary that sets out points of special interest and policy implications based on analysis of the key findings of the online segment and the thematic booklet 2 and the conclusions that can be drawn from them. The World Drug Report 2023 is aimed not only at fostering greater international cooperation to counter the impact of the world drug problem on health, governance, and security, but also at assisting Member States in anticipating and addressing threats posed by drug markets and mitigating their consequences

United Nations SDG Pulse 2023: UNCTAD Takes the Pulse of the
Book SynopsisSDG Pulse provides quantitative assessments of progress with the 2030 Agenda through both a selection of official SDG indicators as well as complementary data and statistics. It also presents recent conceptual and methodological developments regarding SDG indicators of which UNCTAD is the custodian. It has become UNCTAD's reference publication in mapping the organization's work with the SDGs, not only from an analytical perspective but also in terms of technical cooperation and capacity development. This year's edition explores new sources for financing development, sharing the first-ever preliminary estimates for an SDG indicator on illicit financial flows. Lastly, this edition of the SDG Pulse is structured according to the four transformations identified in UNCTAD15's Bridgetown Covenant -- multilateralism and trade, sustainability and resilience, development finance, and diversification, with a particular focus on the most vulnerable and those furthest behind. This year's In-Focus tackles the challenge of costing the achievement of SDGs through six transition pathways.

United Nations Global assessment report on disaster risk
Book SynopsisGlobal warming will surpass 1.5êC above pre-industrial levels during the next decade, due to greenhouse gas emissions. The constant rise in temperatures and related impacts combine with other pressures, thus increasing risk and undermining resilience. The increasing interconnectedness of people and human systems increases the risk of compound and cascading crises. The maps in this report highlight a number of these resilience deficits that are holding back achievement of key sustainable development goals. At the same time, the report's action case examples show that this is not inevitable, and how action is possible on every continent to stop the worsening spiral of risk and disasters and to accelerate SDG target achievement. Addressing resilience gaps will require the unprecedented scaling-up of resilience investment and adaptation action both from within the public and private sectors, particularly for the most vulnerable countries. As these investments take time to mobilize and prepare, delay will increase the inevitable costs. Action is needed now. Disaster risk reduction sits at the nexus between development, humanitarian and climate change action, and can help foster more-sustainable resilient action in each. Readjusting development pathways requires a re-examination of how prosperity is measured, and a greater emphasis on resilience as key element of sustainable development today and in the future

United Nations Survey of economic and social developments in the
Book SynopsisThe present study shows that the economic recovery that started in 2021 with 4.1 per cent growth for the Arab region is expected to continue at 3.7 per cent in 2022 and 3.6 per cent in 2023 for the baseline scenario, and 3.9 per cent in both years for the alternate scenario. The extent of economic recovery varies among Arab subregions and depends on the course of the pandemic, the speed of vaccination, dependency on oil revenues, tourism receipts, and levels of remittance inflows and official development assistance. For the Arab region as a whole, poverty is expected to decline from 26.94 per cent of the population in 2021 to 26.23 per cent in 2023, based on national poverty lines. The region made a slight improvement in closing the gender gap in 2020 but at the current pace of change needs 142 years to reach gender parity. Social protection systems in the region face severe shortcomings in coverage and effectiveness, particularly in countries with limited fiscal space and persistent political instability. Arab governments need to pursue tax reforms they initiated a while ago. Qualitative reforms should make tax systems fairer and more progressive, with simpler and more transparent administrative procedures for better tax compliance. At the national level, reforms should include redesigning tax brackets, rationalizing exemptions, introducing wealth or property taxes, and improving tax data. At the regional and international levels, enhanced cross-border tax cooperation is critical to coordinate tax incentives, review treaties and reinforce tax transparency
