Latin America and the Caribbean Demographic Observatory 2023
Population Dynamics in Latin America and Their Effects on the Labour Force
In this edition of the Demographic Observatory the impact of population dynamics is illustrated through an analysis of selected indicators of labour force estimates and projections by sex age and area of residence for the 1980–2050 period in the 20 countries of Latin America using the 2023 Revision prepared by the Latin American and Caribbean Demographic Centre (CELADE)-Population Division of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC). The analysis highlights that structural changes in the labour force over the 1980–2022 period and projections through to 2050 show markedly different scenarios depending on age group sex and urban or rural area. This has implications for public policy in areas such as labour education health and care. The report also outlines the methodology applied and the data sources used to produce the estimates and projections.

Directrices para la Recopilación de Datos sobre Medidas No Arancelarias: Edición de 2023
Durante los últimos decenios las negociaciones comerciales multilaterales y regionales y la liberalización unilateral han reducido sustancialmente los tipos arancelarios. Las medidas no arancelarias (MNA) sin embargo representan un creciente desafío para los exportadores y los encargados de la formulación de políticas. La capacidad de obtener acceso a los mercados y beneficiarse de ese acceso depende cada vez más de que se cumplan medidas de regulación del comercio como las prescripciones sanitarias y las normas sobre productos. La Conferencia de las Naciones Unidas sobre Comercio y Desarrollo (UNCTAD) ha estado participando activamente en estudios y actividades sobre cuestiones relacionadas con las medidas no arancelarias. La finalidad de este manual es proporcionar directrices para que las personas encargadas de la recopilación de los datos puedan armonizar ese proceso de recopilación y reducir al mínimo la incertidumbre durante la categorización y clasificación.

Science, Technology and Innovation Policy Review of Ethiopia
Botswana Science, Technology, and Innovation Foresight
This report was prepared as part of the Botswana Science Technology and Innovation (STI) Policy review process and should be read in conjunction with the Botswana STI Policy Review. It documents the STI Foresight exercise designed and undertaken by UNCTAD in 2022 to explore the future role of science technology and innovation and STI policy in Botswana and to stimulate a process aimed at creating a consensus on the future priorities for national investments in R&D technology and innovation. It responds to a key finding of UNCTAD's Botswana STI Policy Review that the lack of clearly defined national priorities contributes to fragmentation in the national system of innovation in Botswana and undermines its innovation performance and capacity for technology upgrading. These in turn constrain the ability of Botswana to use STI for sustainable development and reach the sustainable development goals. The STI foresight exercise aimed to provide a future dimension to strategic planning for STI in the country. It sought to involve the STI community of policymakers and practitioners in Botswana in a discussion about what the STI future could be for Botswana and what a preferred STI future is for the country. The exercise and the report are based on an understanding that foresight can help to shape the future of Botswana by looking forward into the future to see what could be possible through selective policy interventions undertaken in the present starting from today.
Science Technology and Innovation Policy Review: Seychelles
The Science Technology and Innovation (STI) Policy Review of Seychelles was conducted by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) at the request of the Government of Seychelles. The request was made in the context of the UNCTAD project on Technology Assessment in the energy and agricultural sectors in Africa to accelerate progress on science technology and innovation and this Review is one of its products. The review of Seychelles' National Innovation System (NIS) and the implementation of its 2016-2025 national Science Technology and Innovation Policy and Strategy (STIPS) suggests a range of policy actions and institutional reforms. These recommendations are essential for invigorating the NIS thereby enabling Seychelles to harness STI and entrepreneurship effectively to achieve the goals set in Vision 2033 and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This report reviews the implementation of the 2016-2025 STI Policy and Strategy (STIPS) and assess the country’s national innovation system.

Harnessing Innovation for Sustainable Development
Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The Gender Snapshot 2023
This publication is the latest instalment in the annual series jointly produced by UN Women and UN DESA. The report provides a comprehensive analysis of gender equality progress across all 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Halfway to the end point of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development the world is failing to achieve gender equality making it an increasingly distant goal. If current trends continue more than 340 million women and girls will still live in extreme poverty by 2030 and close to one in four will experience moderate or severe food insecurity. Growing vulnerability brought on by human-induced climate change is likely to worsen this outlook as many as 236 million more women and girls will be food-insecure under a worst-case climate scenario. The gender gap in power and leadership positions remains entrenched and at the current rate of progress the next generation of women will still spend on average 2.3 more hours per day on unpaid care and domestic work than men. No country is within reach of eradicating intimate partner violence and women’s share of workplace management positions will remain below parity even by 2050. Fair progress has been made in girls’ education but completion rates remain below the universal mark. With the clock ticking urgency mounts. This report advocates for an integrated holistic approach to advancing gender equality involving multistakeholder collaboration and sustained financial backing. Neglecting to amplify efforts and invest in gender parity jeopardizes the entire 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The Gender Snapshot 2022
The latest available Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5 data show that the world is not on track to achieve gender equality by 2030. COVID-19 and the backlash against women’s sexual and reproductive health and rights are further diminishing the outlook for gender equality. Violence against women remains high; global health climate and humanitarian crises have further increased risks of violence especially for the most vulnerable women and girls; and women feel more unsafe than they did before the pandemic. Women’s representation in positions of power and decision-making remains below parity. Only 47 per cent of data required to track progress on SDG 5 are currently available rendering women and girls effectively invisible. Nearly halfway to the 2030 endpoint for the SDGs the time to act and invest in women and girls is now. “Progress on the Sustainable Development Goals: The gender snapshot 2022” presents the latest evidence on gender equality across all 17 Goals calling out the long road ahead to achieve gender equality. It emphasizes the interlinkages among the goals the pivotal force gender equality plays in driving progress across the SDGs and women and girls’ central role in leading the way forward.

Human Development Report 2023/2024
Breaking the Gridlock - Reimagining Cooperation in a Polarized World
Today collective action on challenges ranging from climate change mitigation to peace and security is frustratingly slow or stymied altogether. Lack of trust and polarization--both associated with insecurity--exacerbate the gridlock. Shared interlinked global challenges like the pandemic and its recovery are outpacing our willingness and our institutions’ capacities to respond to them.Why despite all our riches and technologies are we so stuck? How do we get unstuck? Is it possible to mobilize action to address globally shared challenges in a world that is intensively polarized? The 2023-2024 Human Development Report explores these issues and offers a platform for strategic discussion on how to move beyond narrow zero-sum thinking and support cooperation even as we have diverging interests and views. The e-book for this publication has been converted into an accessible format for the visually impaired and people with print reading disabilities. It is fully compatible with leading screen-reader technologies such as JAWS and NVDA.
