Voluntary Sustainability Standards and BioTrade: Is There a Connection?
This report provides a synthesis of the connections between selected Voluntary Sustainability Standards (VSS) and the UNCTAD BioTrade Principles & Criteria (P&C). The growth in VSS-compliant production has been increasing and in some sectors even exceeding that of conventional production. While VSS have proliferated across multiple sectors their role in trade and biodiversity still demands greater exploration. The BioTrade initiative through its P&C promotes sustainable trade and investment in biodiversity-based products and services. While these are two of the tools that can be used by public and private sector actors to mitigate their negative impacts on biodiversity there has been little understanding of the alignment between these two tools. This is important to understand the opportunities for mutual recognition and support and to avoid the proliferation of tools.

Guidelines for the Production of Statistical Data by the Prison System
In 2015 the United Nations Statistical Commission (UNSC) and the United Nations Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (UN-CCPCJ) endorsed the International Classification of Crime for Statistical Purposes (ICCS). ICCS is the international standard for defining and classifying criminal offences to produce and disseminate statistical data on crime and criminal justice. When statistics are compiled and distributed according to the comprehensive and standardized framework of ICCS it is possible to produce higher quality statistics as well as more articulated analyses of crime trends and patterns harmonized across the different steps of the criminal justice system and jurisdictions. Building on the process to implement ICCS at a country level and the report on crime and criminal justice statistics authored by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and the National Institute of Statistics and Geography of Mexico these guidelines aim to provide advice to the prison system on the collection production and dissemination of high-quality statistical data that can assist in performing and continuously monitoring core functions improve the measurement of access to justice and promote the implementation of ICCS. This document comprises specific guidance for the police the prosecution service and the courts and the prison system. In addition guidance on how to develop an interoperable system of crime and criminal justice data more broadly is forthcoming.

Energy Transition of Fishing Fleets: Opportunities and Challenges for Developing Countries
The review of NDCs conducted in this study shows surprising results. It reveals that major aquatic food exporters i.e. India the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Norway show no commitments on ocean or fisheries-related matters.

And despite being a part of the most polluting region in the world China and Viet Nam stand out for committing to implement measures for energy saving energy efficiency and emission reduction in fisheries as a means of mitigating GHG emissions. The review of regulations and agreements found little evidence of such measures being used in the fisheries sector.

Exporting to China
Opportunities for Developing Countries in the Belt and Road Initiative
Since the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative in 2013 exports from participating developing countries to China have soared by 79% to $798 billion. However almost half of the export potential from these countries to China is unrealized. There are abundant opportunities for export growth in manufacturing exports to China. While many are resource-based plenty are value-added. Efforts to leverage the former should encompass environmental sustainability and working conditions. Targeted trade promotion must be designed to unlock the latter. Beyond infrastructure improvements this global initiative promotes international economic cooperation that can materialize sustainable inclusive value-added trade for developing countries. The analysis presented in this report provides comprehensive insights into the export potential to the Chinese market for developing countries that participate in the BRI. This report also highlights that while these export opportunities can be a potent force for good they must be navigated with awareness and foresight and always with a sustainable development lens. It is not merely about trading more; it is about trading right.

United Nations System Common Position on Incarceration
The present paper sets forth the United Nations system common position on incarceration. It addresses prison and associated challenges at the global regional and national levels and constitutes the common framework for United Nations support to Member States in relation to incarceration. The paper reflects a “One UN” approach aimed at supporting efforts to rethink the current overreliance on and implementation of incarceration including through better coordination and integrated efforts. The United Nations system common position on incarceration is based on the understanding that no one should be subjected to arbitrary arrest or detention and that the deprivation of liberty in response to a criminal charge or offence should constitute a measure of last resort with due consideration first being paid to non-custodial sanctions or measures. It also acknowledges that as part of individualized balanced and proportionate criminal justice responses to offending well managed prisons constitute an important aspect of the justice chain. Prison services that respect human dignity and operate in line with international norms and standards constitute a core element of efforts to maintain peace and security public safety and respect for human rights.
المبادئ التوجيهية لجمع البيانات بشأن التدابير الرسمية غير الجمركية: طبعة 2023

Lignes directrices pour la collecte de données sur les mesures non tarifaires officielles: Édition de 2023
Au cours des dernières décennies les négociations commerciales multilatérales et régionales et la libéralisation unilatérale ont permis de réduire fortement les taux de droits de douane. Les mesures non tarifaires (MNT) constituent à l’opposé un défi croissant pour les exportateurs et les décideurs. La possibilité d’obtenir l’accès à un marché et d’en tirer profit est toujours plus conditionnée par le respect de mesures réglementaires liées au commerce telles que les exigences sanitaires et les normes relatives aux marchandises. La Conférence des Nations Unies sur le commerce et le développement (CNUCED) a pris une part active aux recherches et aux activités consacrées aux questions liées aux mesures non tarifaires.

Rapport sur la gouvernance économique I: Architecture institutionnelle pour lutter contre les flux financiers illicites
Ce premier Rapport sur la gouvernance économique évalue l’architecture institutionnelle préconisée par les gouvernements africains pour bloquer les flux financiers illicites (FFI) et recommande des initiatives pour la renforcer. Les conclusions du rapport indiquent que les FFI continuent de prospérer alors même que les pays africains ont essayé d’établir des cadres institutionnels conçus pour les combattre. Les FFI ont pour causes la corruption le blanchiment d’argent la surfacturation ou sous-facturation des échanges commerciaux pour transférer des fonds de manière illicite ainsi que la fraude fiscale (y compris l’évasion fiscale des entreprises). Le rapport encourage une plus grande collaboration entre les administrations publiques la coordination des rapports financiers la suppression des mandats faisant double emploi et un soutien politique constant aux réformes institutionnelles visant à lutter contre le phénomène. Le rapport suggère que les pays africains qui sont parties aux conventions internationales sur la corruption appliquent pleinement et alignent toutes les lois nationales régissant les organes de lutte contre la corruption. Les lois anti-corruption devraient viser expressément les FFI. Les pays africains doivent également renforcer les pouvoirs et l'indépendance des organes de lutte contre la corruption afin de s'attaquer efficacement à la corruption au blanchiment d'argent aux FFI liés au commerce et aux FFI à motivation fiscale. Ils doivent intégrer des systèmes de données dans tous les circuits économiques - banques centrales autorités douanières autres autorités fiscales registres des sociétés commissions boursières et institutions financières commerciales et non bancaires - afin de faciliter le suivi des transactions de corruption et des mouvements des produits de la corruption.
