Vitamin A fortification in Uganda: Comparing the feasibility, coverage, costs, and cost-effectiveness of fortifying vegetable oil and sugar by Fiedler, John L., Afidra, Ronald

“…Those most at risk for vitamin A deficiency—members of rural, poor households—would benefit disproportionately from the introduction of sugar fortification.Although the lack of information on the vitamin A deficiency status of consumers of oil and sugar precludes making definitive conclusions, the increased coverage and cost per DALY averted due to sugar fortification suggests—based on World Health Organization guidelines—that the Government of Uganda should pursue sugar fortification.…”

Establishing IUCN red list criteria for threatened ecosystems by Rodríguez, J.P., Rodríguez Clark, K.M., Baillie, J.E.M., Ash, N., Benson, J., Boucher, T., Brown, C., Burgess, Neil D., Collen, B., Jennings, M., Keith, D.A., Nicholson, E., Revenga, Carmen, Reyers, B., Rouget, M., Smith, T., Spalding, M., Taber, A., Walpole, M., Zager, I., Zamin, T.

“…The potential for conservation of individual species has been greatly advanced by the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) development of objective, repeatable, and transparent criteria for assessing extinction risk that explicitly separate risk assessment from priority setting. At the IV World Conservation Congress in 2008, the process began to develop and implement comparable global standards for ecosystems. …”

Studying inclusive innovation with the right data: An empirical illustration from Ethiopia by Alemu, Solomon, Kosmowski, Frederic, Stevenson, James R., Mallia, Paola, Taye, Lemi, Macours, Karen

“…Substituting survey responses with the results of DNA fingerprinting these correlations disappear, with farm size, gender and poverty status no longer predictive of adoption. SIGNIFICANCE The results suggest the potential value of offering a menu of innovations to farmers to increase inclusivity, as it allows each farmer to be a critical consumer of potential innovations and select those that best correspond to their own needs and constraints. …”

A typology of management tools: Using experience to catalyze greater success by Selig, Elizabeth R., Kleisner, Kristin, Ahoobim, Oren, Arocha, Freddy, Cruz-Trinidad, Annabelle, Fujita, Rod, Grasso, Thomas, Hara, Mafaniso, Katz, Laure, McConney, Patrick, Ratner, Blake D., Saavedra-Díaz, Lina M., Schwarz, Anne-Maree, Thiao, Djiga, Torell, Elin, Troëng, Sebastian, Villasante, Sebastian

“…We defined success as increased or maintained abundance or biomass, reductions in fishing mortality or improvements in population status. Because the literature only covered a narrow set of biological factors, we also conducted an expert elicitation to create a typology of broader fishery characteristics, enabling conditions and design considerations that affect performance. …”
