Relatório técnico conclusivo, no qual - por meio de indicadores deduzidos obtidos na realização de estudo prévio de avaliação, durante pesquisa de doutorado, e vinculado à melhoria contínua de seus resultados - é apresentado programa de ações que dá suporte à gestão integrada de resíduos sólidos e com vistas à melhoria da cooperação intersetorial e engajamento das partes interessadas envolvidas. A iniciativa provém do Programa Regional de Pós-Graduação em Desenvolvimento e Meio Ambiente (Rede PRODEMA), proposta interdisciplinar, interinstitucional e intrarregional, da qual participam nove instituições de ensino superior, que trabalham para propor resolução de problemas locais e regionais. Se aplicado, pode gerar mudanças efetivas na área ambiental, social, econômica, cultural e jurídica, colaborando com governos locais municipais e sua relação com os cidadãos. Vale destacar ainda que este produto atende a seis objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável, da ONU, especificamente o ODS 1 – Erradicação da pobreza, ODS 3 – Saúde e bem-estar, ODS 6 – Água potável e saneamento, ODS 10 – Redução das desigualdades, ODS 12 – Consumo e produção responsáveis e o ODS 17 – Parcerias e meios de implementação.
By 2030, ensure universal access to sexual and reproductive health-care services, including for family planning, information and education, and the integration of reproductive health into national strategies and programmes
PhD candidate Andrea Melberg, CIH, University of Bergen
Melberg underlined that the things that the indicators for reproductive health are measuring are difficult to quantify. For example, the proportion of women with access to the family planning resources they need depends very much on a given woman’s status – married vs unmarried etc. She also highlighted that the process of defining indicators often impacts social processes, which then can become political issues, in turn generating social pressures.
Melberg stresses that concrete quantifiable data is lacking in this area, and measurements are not standardized. She concluded by mentioning the “elephant in the room – abortion”. Abortion is a significant cause of maternal deaths, but data is difficult to collect. She highlights the need to work towards gender equality and women’s health and rights.

The sustainable production, processing and distribution of food is one of mankind's greatest challenges. The eLearning course ‘Designing sustainable food systems’ offers an insight into this complex topic.
The online course is available free of charge. It is in English and aimed at students and others who have an interest in sustainable food systems with or without experience in the subject. The first module begins with an introduction to the topic of sustainability and describes the problems in the global food system, together with possible solutions. Modules 2 and 3 explain how food value chains can be made more sustainable and analyse the role of food in the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
