Sécurité Humaine et Développement Humain au Bénin

Ce rapport s’inscrit dans la tradition du paradigme de développement humain prôné par le Programme des Nations Unies pour le développement (PNUD), à savoir que les hommes sont la vraie richesse des nations. Le rapport ne saurait être considéré, en aucun cas, comme une déclaration de principe ni du Gouvernement du Bénin, ni du PNUD. Comme tous les Rapports de ce type, il constitue une étude indépendante des...

Responsabilite sociale, corruption et developpement humain durable au Benin

Le présent Rapport identifie deux menaces majeures à la réalisation des OMD, liées à la question de la corruption. Avec l’intensification de la corruption, les personnes les plus faibles en droits, notamment les petits agriculteurs, les femmes et les jeunes, voient leurs possibilités d’épanouissement se réduire, de par la présence de groupes plus puissants, parce que disposant de plus de facilités à corro...

VIH/SIDA et développement humain

Le présent Rapport propose des réponses appropriées à la situation actuelle. Il fait également ressortir que l'utilisation de certains principes du développement humain durable (DHD) est nécessaire pour assurer l'efficacité de la réponse stratégique au VIH/SIDA. L'édition 2005 du RNDH n'a pas pour prétention d'aborder tous les aspects de la problématique "VIH/SIDA et DHD", mais vise surtout &a...

Human Development Report

Benin's NHDR 2003 addresses the issue of financing sustainable human development. The Report provides a critical assessment of the uses of existing financial resources for development. By doing so, the Report insists on the need to focus resources on correcting actual discrepancies between the evolution of the GNP and poverty. To that aim, the Report puts the stress on the human dimension of development, regarded as the basic underlying factor of allocation priorities. The effectiveness of fi...

Regional development and the challenges of decentralisation

The selection of this theme indicates the will of the UNDP in Benin to contribute to the debate on decentralization in the country, which has been on-going for some years. It also denotes the need, after forty years of independence, to step back and make an assessment of development policies, stressing both failures and successes. Reflections on the development of African countries indicate that the outcomes of most development policies and programmes implemented since de-colonization in the ...

Human Development Report on Governance
La Gouvernance

Benin's NHDR offers an in-depth analysis of the conceptual framework of governance. It was substantially supported by the Regional African Project for the Evaluation of Governance Capacities. Given the process of democratization in Benin since 1990, the analysis of this report centers on governance, its performance and its various dimensions. For the first time in Benin, the report calculates the Human Freedom Index (HFI), which was introduced in the Global Human Development Report in 1991...

Creation of Sustainable Jobs

The report finds that Benin is one of the least advanced countries in the region, with very weak development indicators. This makes it particularly important to take strong action to improve the situation. The report’s focus is on the various factors involved in creating or obstructing sustainable employment. These include, poverty, the environment, women’s skills, finance and human resources. The report concludes with a number of recommendations aimed at creating the conditi...

Women and human development in Benin

The Report provides an assessment of human development in Benin with a focus on the situation of women and their access to development opportunities. It explores regional gender differences in education, the condition of female, reproductive, and youth health and analyzes the economic activity of women with respect to the labour force and the informal sector. The Report finds that in 1996, only 7.3% of National Assembly seats were occupied by women. Participation of women in economic activ...

Human Development Report of Benin
Poverty

Benin’s first NHDR discusses the conceptual framework of poverty looking at both human and income poverty. One way poverty is measured is through perception surveys in which rural and urban focus-groups and individuals provided their views on poverty in Benin. Major differences in perceptions of poverty lie between the north and south; the latter attaches much more importance to income and employment, whereas the former contend that lack of food, shelter, health, income, and family are...
