El Buen Vivir en la política internacional boliviana (2006-2019)
Garino, Agustina
Desde el año 2006 Bolivia atraviesa un proceso de cambio gubernamental que incorpora discursivamente a la cosmovisión del “Buen Vivir” y el pensamiento indígena como base del Estado Plurinacional. El presente trabajo, tiene por objetivo analizar los aportes del paradigma del Buen Vivir en la política exterior del país en el período 2006-2019, correspondiente a las tres presidencias de Evo Morales. El estudio adopta una metodología de investigación cualitativa y a partir de un abordaje decolonial se parte de la siguiente hipótesis: En el período estudiado, la incorporación del paradigma del Buen Vivir y el pensamiento indígena, amplió los márgenes de la estrategia internacional boliviana profundizando el abordaje en el nivel global de problemáticas relacionadas al cuidado de la naturaleza y derechos indígenas. Esta posición discursiva, le permitió acceder a nuevos espacios en la arena internacional convirtiéndose en un actor relevante en las agendas mencionadas.; <strong>The “Good life” in Bolivian international politics (2006-2019)</strong> <br>
Since 2006, Bolivia has been going through a process of governmental change that discursively incorporates the worldview of “The Good Life” (buen vivir) and indigenous thought as the basis of the Plurinational State. The objective of this paper is to analyze the contributions of the buen vivir paradigm in the country's foreign policy in the period 2006 to 2019, corresponding to the three presidencies of Evo Morales. The study adopts a qualitative research methodology and from a decolonial approach. It is based on the following hypothesis: In the period studied, the incorporation of the paradigm of buen vivir and indigenous thought expanded the margins of the Bolivian international policy, deepening its approach of issues related to the care of nature and indigenous rights at the global level. This discursive position allowed Bolivia to access new spaces in the international arena, becoming a relevant actor in the aforementioned agendas.

How to engage smallholder producers in scaling the dairy and poultry sectors
Konok, Khadeja Akter; Gulati, Ashok; Ritika, Juneja
India is a land of smallholders and its dairy and poultry sectors are no exception. The average herd size of the dairy sector is less than four animals per household. Nevertheless, India is the largest milk producer in the world (230 million tons in 2022-23), followed by the US at 103 million tons. The country has come a long way from being a milk-deficit country in the 1950s and 60s to a self-sufficient one with some surplus. Milk is not only the biggest agri-commodity (bigger than paddy, wheat, pulses and sugarcane put together), but the sector also employs 80 million rural households. Of the total workers engaged in milk production, more than 70 percent are women. On the other hand, the poultry sector has been the fastest-growing agriculture sector over the last two decades. Between 2000 and 2020, India’s poultry meat and egg production grew at an annual average rate of growth of 9 and 7 percent, respectively. India is now the third-largest producer of eggs in the world and the fifth-largest producer of broilers. In 2020, almost 80 percent of poultry production (in value terms) came from the organized contract farming segment and almost 70 percent of poultry farmers engaged through contract farming are smallholder farmers with a flock size of 3,000-10,000 birds. This policy briefs sheds light on the factors that have contributed to the growth of the two livestock sectors as well as challenges that remain to be addressed.

Farming for Fish

Aquaculture is the fastest growing food sector in the world, accounting for more than half of the fish and seafood products consumed globally in 2021. Beyond improving food security, the sector holds significant potential to boost employment and rural development. However, aquaculture remains in its infancy across most of Africa. Production is highly concentrated in a few countries—notably Egypt, which ranks among the world’s largest producers. Increasing demand for fish products promises high potential for growth. However, purposeful policy shifts are needed to transform subsistence operations into commercial enterprises. This policy brief draws on insights from Egypt, Nigeria and Kenya to identify success factors that could contribute to scaling the sector across the continent.
