This book presents a study of the corporate governance legal framework and enforcement by capital market regulators in participating Asian jurisdictions. The study focuses on the following areas: the legal framework and adequacy of laws, with a focus on related-party transactions, disclosure of ownership and control, and fiduciary duties of directors; the structure of enforcement authorities; the authority to monitor, supervise, investigate, enforce and impose sanctions; disclosure of enforcement actions and practices; the role of the courts and the judicial system; and cross-border enforcement.

Excellence in education without equity risks leading to large economic and social disparities; equity in education at the expense of quality is a meaningless aspiration. The most advanced education systems now set ambitious goals for all students, focusing on both excellence and equity. They also equip their teachers with the pedagogic skills that have been proven effective and with enough autonomy so that teachers can use their own creativity in determining the content and instruction they provide to their individual students.

The fourth International Summit on the Teaching Profession brought together education ministers, union leaders and other teacher leaders from high-performing and rapidly improving education systems, as measured by PISA (the OECD Programme for International Student Assessment ). Their aim was to discuss equity, excellence and inclusiveness in education by exploring three questions:

. How are high-quality teachers developed, and how do schools with the greatest need attract and retain them?

. How can equity be ensured in increasingly devolved education systems? and

. What kinds of learning environments address the needs of all students?

To underpin the discussions, this publication identifies some of the steps policy makers can take to build school systems that are both equitable and excellent. The analysis is complemented with examples that illustrate proven or promising practices in specific countries.

Equity, excellence and inclusiveness in education - Policy lessons from around the world

Many jurisdictions around the world are trying to retain or increase the share of cycling in urban traffic in order to benefit from the many health and transport efficiency benefits. Safety is a key concern and should be accounted for in these policies.
This report of the International Transport Forum's Cycling Safety Working Group monitors international trends in cycling, safety and policy, and explores options that may help decision makers design safe environments for cycling. Key messages relate to strategic goal-setting for cycling policy and managing crash risks while increasing health benefits. The report also discusses how to better capture crash and bicycle usage statistics. The safety impacts of a wide range of pro-cycling measures are examined in detail.

En 2011, la communauté internationale du développement s'est engagée à renforcer l'efficacité de la coopération pour le développement afin de produire de meilleurs résultats pour les populations pauvres du monde entier. Ce rapport paraît à mi-parcours entre les engagements approuvés en 2011 lors du Forum de haut niveau de Busan en Corée et la date butoir de 2015 des Objectifs du millénaire pour le développement. Il fait le point sur les progrès accomplis et les domaines dans lesquels il reste des défis urgents à relever.

Cet ouvrage offre un premier instantané de l'état des lieux depuis Busan. Il s'appuie sur les dix indicateurs du cadre de suivi du Partenariat mondial. Malgré les perturbations économiques mondiales, l'évolution des paysages politiques et la pression budgétaire intérieure, l'engagement en faveur d'une coopération efficace au service du développement reste ferme. Les efforts de longue date visant à modifier la façon dont la coopération pour le développement est mise en oeuvre portent leurs fruits. Néanmoins, il reste encore beaucoup à faire pour traduire les engagements politiques en actions concrètes. Ce rapport souligne les domaines dans lesquels il est nécessaire de déployer des efforts ciblés afin de poursuivre les progrès et d'atteindre les objectifs fixés pour rendre la coopération au développement plus efficace d'ici 2015.
