Resumo Este artigo tem por finalidade mostrar o desempenho econômico causados pelas principais atividades econômicas do Estado de Mato Grosso do Sul, Brasil. Nesse contexto, os estudos prospectivos irão demonstrar e identificar os indicadores de sustentabilidade de Mato Grosso do Sul para os estudos setoriais e regionais, que subsidiem o aprimoramento de políticas públicas auxiliando na elaboração de Programas Estratégicos de Governo, que levam em consideração as questões do desenvolvimento sustentável ambiental e parâmetros de impacto. Dentro desse enfoque, a possibilidade da construção de indicativos para mensurar quais são os municípios do Estado com maior desempenho econômico sobre o meio ambiente e sobre a sociedade como um todo. Tornando-se relevante na discussão das políticas públicas. Além disso, os diagnósticos gerados pela construção de indicadores sintéticos permitem aos tomadores de decisão cenários prospectivos a respeito da sustentabilidade, subsidiando o aprimoramento, a avaliação e o monitoramento das Políticas Públicas e Programas Governamentais. Para tanto, foi desenvolvida uma abordagem de indicações agregativas para mensuração da sustentabilidade, que avaliou os resultados para os setenta e nove municípios de Mato Grosso do Sul, revelando quais as principais similaridades e pontos de atenção em relação à sustentabilidade. Propondo no geral objetivar, mensurar a construção e estimação de um Índice de Desenvolvimento Sustentável para o Estado. Palavras-chave: Desempenho Econômico. Contabilidade Verde. Desenvolvimento Regional. Abstract This article aims to show the economic performance caused by the main economic activities of the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. In this context, prospective studies will demonstrate the identification of Mato Grosso do Sul sustainability indicators for sectoral and regional studies that support the improvement of public policies, aiding in the elaboration of strategic government programs that take into account the issues of sustainable environmental development and impact parameters. Within this approach, it is possible to construct indicators to measure the economic activities with the highest performance on the environment and on society as a whole, becoming relevant in the discussion of public policies. In addition, the diagnoses generated by the synthetic indicators construction allow decision makers to make prospective scenarios regarding sustainability by subsidizing the improvement of the evaluation and monitoring of public policies and government programs. Therefore, an aggregative indicator approach for sustainability measurement was developed, which evaluated the results for the 79 municipalities of Mato Grosso do Sul revealing the main similarities and points of attention related to sustainability, proposing in general, to objectify and measure the construction and estimation of a sustainable development index for the state.

The Impact

Purpose: The State of Qatar has widely sought to include women in public life and has implemented several policies in order to improve gender equality in the workforce and fair distribution of development benefits. This study establishes how far the State of Qatar has achieved the equality of women in the workplace, since the initiation of new reform policies and agendas of modernisation in 1995. Qatari women in leadership positions still face major challenges in relation to cultural limitations and organisational constraints; these areas need to be further developed to improve the degree of gender equality and close the wide gap between the two genders in terms of economic rights and equal opportunities in the labour force. Methodology: This paper uses semi-structured interviews which were conducted with twenty-five women aged all of whom held senior management positions in a range of civil society and public sector organisations in Qatar at the time of the interview. The twenty-five participants who participated in the study ranged in age from 34 to 61 years. Main Findings: The findings suggest that Qatari women are helped by two forces: the support they are getting from the ruling family and the impact of reforms and social change in surrounding regions. Indeed, the slow pace of social reform is one of the common complaints of progressives. Implications/Applications: Therefore, focused, procedural steps should be taken to enforce adherence to frameworks by governmental institutions and to amend existing legislation to tackle the challenges faced by women. These steps include implementing some social policy recommendations in terms of establishing and funding women’s civil society organisations, integrating an evaluation and monitoring system in governmental organisations, promoting work/family policies, and initiating a feminisation policy in government organisations.

ABSTRACT Objective A strategic analysis was carried out in order to verify the relevance of the Food and Nutrition Security Plan of the state of Santa Catarina to the Brazilian concept of Food and Nutrition Security. Methods A matrix containing 7 dimensions, 16 sub-dimensions and 35 indicators was used for the evaluation, which were evaluated as poor, regular, good and excellent for each component. Results The Plan was evaluated as being of good relevance to its objective. However, it was only relevant to 53% of the analyzed dimensions, and the dimension of promoting universal access to adequate food had the worst result. The dimensions of developing permanent processes of education, research and training, and of evaluation and monitoring, obtained the best results, with the Plan being evaluated as of good relevance to these dimensions. Still, for half of the sub-dimensions and for 60% of the analyzed indicators, the Plan was evaluated as poor or regular. Conclusion It is hoped that the results of this research can qualify the Plan researched, as well as stimulate reflections for the construction of Plans in the other Brazilian states.

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.
