Abstract

Depuis peu, notre région voit éclore des projets entrepreneuriaux sous forme de coopératives citoyennes. Ces initiatives sont soutenues par les pouvoirs publics et suscitent l’engouement des médias. Ces projets remportent un certain succès auprès du grand public qui y voit une opportunité d’investir dans des projets porteurs de sens dans le cadre d’appels publics à l’épargne. Les sociétés coopératives visées par cette étude ont la particularité d’être agréée par le CNC et certaines ont une finalité sociale. Ces nouvelles sociétés suscitent l’intérêt des financeurs publics et privés. Mais, certains projets sont freinés à cause de la méconnaissance de cette forme d’entreprise atypique. Il semble que les dossiers de ces projets manquent d’une formalisation adaptée. En effet, les sociétés coopératives « citoyennes », de par leur nature, ont des pratiques et font des choix de gestion qui leur sont spécifiques. Certains de ces choix ont un impact visible, ou non, sur les états financiers. Actuellement, le schéma des comptes annuels d’une coopérative ne permet pas une compréhension aisée de leur modèle économique et compromet la qualité de l’évaluation du dossier par des financeurs potentiels. L’étude vise à définir le concept de coopérative citoyenne, relever les pratiques et les choix de gestion spécifiques aux coopératives citoyennes et déterminer l’impact réel ou potentiel de ces choix sur les états financiers et leur analyse, concevoir un canevas reprenant les pratiques associées à des indicateurs et enfin valider l’intérêt de ce canevas auprès des acteurs de terrain et présenter leur feedback.

Abstract

Africa’s natural resource sectors are experiencing unprecedented levels of foreign investment and production. Hailed as a means of reducing poverty and reliance on foreign aid, the role of foreign corporations in Africa’s extractive sector is not well understood and important questions remain about the impact of such activities on people and on the environment. With reference to global governance initiatives aimed at promoting ethical business practices, this volume offers a timely examination of Canada-Africa relations and natural resource governance. Few Canadians realize how significant a role their country plays in investing in Africa’s natural resource sector. The editors and contributors consider the interplay between public opinion, corporate social responsibility, and debates about the extraction and trade of Africa’s natural resources.

Abstract

The severity of interconnected socio-economic and environmental impacts on landscapes and people across Africa are exacerbated as a result of land degradation, conflict, poor governance, competition for land and inequality, and exacerbated by climate change. In pursuing pathways towards a more resilient future, collaborative and multi-stakeholder governance and management of landscapes have been promoted by government agencies, NGOs and conservation organisations as a possible solution. However, there is no single way to achieve effective collaboration, and different landscape projects have experimented with different entry points and engagement processes. Grounded in partnerships amongst researchers, practitioners and development partners with expertise in landscape governance and management in Africa, this book describes and collates key lessons from practice for supporting more resilient and equitable landscapes.

Abstract

This Special Issue explores underrepresented aspects of the political dimensions of global warming. It includes post- and decolonial perspectives on climate-related migration and conflict, intersectional approaches, and climate change politics as a new tool of governance. Its aim is to shed light on the social phenomena associated with anthropogenic climate change, as well as its multidimensional and far-reaching political effects, including climate-induced migration movements and climate-related conflicts in different parts of the world. In doing so, it critically engages with securitizing discourses and the resulting anti-migration arguments and policies in the Global North in order to identify and give a voice to alternative and hitherto underrepresented research and policy perspectives. In this way, it aims to contribute to a fact-based, critical, and holistic approach to human mobility and conflict in the context of political and environmental crisis.

Abstract

This Special Issue of Sustainability on “Partnerships for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)” brings together a collection of articles that explore a diverse range of issues and challenges faced by partnership arrangements that seek to support the achievement of the SDGs and the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. As well as encompassing a diverse range of collaborative forms and themes, and involving a variety of stakeholders, these collaborative initiatives are all notably shaped by the dynamics of the particular contexts in which they operate. These contexts include individual, organizational, sectoral, spatial, and geographical settings. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on partnering for the SDGs is also apparent. The interplay between these elements offers a useful global–local context for further inquiry and reflection on how deeper and more meaningful collaborative relationships might be developed to achieve the SDG targets and beyond.
