Internal migration is a key component of spatial redistribution of the population, with implications for communities, households and individuals. For communities, migration has demographic, social, cultural and economic impacts. For households and individuals, migration —especially when it is part of a deliberate strategy— is a means to achieve objectives, ranging from coping with an economic crisis to improving quality of life.
Population censuses are the main source of information about migration movements, but in the past were used only for official publications, which tend to be of limited…
Sustainable development, the basis of the new international development agenda, is a deceptively simple notion that in fact reflects a complex balance struck between different perspectives on the interplay between the environment and economic and social development.

The Commission’s report, Our Common Future (1987) defined sustainable development as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations t…
In late 1960s and early 1970s the world began to wake up to the importance of environmental issues, shaken from its slumber by new scientific findings, the increased sophistication of civil society movements in some countries and a few high-impact publications.
These included Silent Spring by Rachel Carson (1962), The Population Bomb by Paul Ehrlich (1968) and The Limits to Growth, commissioned by the Club of Rome (1972). Until the early 1970s, international efforts to address environmental issues had targeted specific environmental problems, with scant regard for the interplay between the env…
The United Nations Global Marketplace - UNGM - is the common procurement portal of the United Nations system of organizations.
It brings together UN procurement staff and the vendor community. The United Nations represents a global market of over USD 15 billion annually for all types of products and services.
The UNGM acts as a single window, through which potential suppliers may register with the UN organizations using the UNGM as their vendor database. These organizations account for over 99% of the total UN procurement spent. The UNGM therefore provides an excellent springboard to…

With the aim of deepening understanding of development issues in the region, in 1952 ECLAC began establishing a network of national and subregional offices. The ECLAC office in Bogota was set up through an agreement with the Government of Colombia signed in November 1963.
With this step, ECLAC proposed to decentralize and add value to the implementation of economic studies on development, trade and integration and technical cooperation projects.
The ECLAC office in Bogota contributes to regular and ad hoc economic studies conducted by the Commission, disseminates its work and provides technica…
