The global development architecture is rapidly going through major transformations and simple dichotomies-North/South or developed/developing countries-are now obsolete. There has been a shift in the geography of poverty with the majority of poor populations now living in middle‐income while the poorest countries that have no geostrategic relevance are forgotten in their vulnerabilities. 2, record 1, English, - global%20development%20architecture

[…] para lograr la aceleración del desarrollo y la reducción de la pobreza en los PMA [países menos adelantados], es menester no solo mejorar los mecanismos de apoyo internacional específicamente destinados a los PMA, sino también establecer una nueva arquitectura internacional del desarrollo en favor de los PMA. Esa nueva arquitectura se define como un nuevo conjunto de instituciones, reglas y normas oficiales y no oficiales, incluidos incentivos, principios y procesos, que configurarían las relaciones económicas internacionales de una manera tendiente a lograr un desarrollo sostenido e incluyente en los PMA. 1, record 1, Spanish, - arquitectura%20internacional%20del%20desarrollo

The Starboard 0(S0) truss segment is the first major element of the International Space Station's enormous exterior framework. The S0 Truss is 13. 4 meters(44 feet) long and 4. 6 meters(15 feet) wide and weighs 12, 247 kilograms(27, 000 pounds). It is the center segment of 11 integrated trusses that will provide the foundation for station subsystem hardware installation, utility distribution, power generation, heat rejection and external payload accommodations. The S0 truss acts as the junction from which external utilities are routed to the pressurized modules by means of EVA-deployed umbilicals. The S0 truss is going to the space station with a complement of pre-integrated hardware to increase ISS functionality, including the Mobile Transporter, the Trailing Umbilical System, the Portable Work Platform, four Global Positioning System antennas, two rate gyros, an Extravehicular Charged Particle Detection System and umbilicals for U.

Atlantis (STS-110, mission 8A) rejoignait l'ISS [International Space Station] pour doter la Station d'une nouvelle structure : l'Integrated Truss Structure SO (le segment central de la poutre de 91 m à terme). Cette poutre de 13 m et lourde de 12 tonnes a été fixée au-dessus du laboratoire américain Destiny. Elle servira de base à des dizaines de tonnes d'équipements qui seront installés ces prochaines années : panneaux solaires, appareils de refroidissement et autres systèmes nécessaires au fonctionnement de l'ISS. Enfin, les astronautes d'Atlantis ont installé le transporteur mobile, un petit wagonnet qui doit servir de base mobile pour le bras robotique Canadarm2. Une fois opérationnel, le transporteur mobile circulera le long d'un rail installé le long de la poutre S0. 5, record 4, French, - poutre%20S0

The GPCC(Global Precipitation Climatology Centre) is a central element of the Global Precipitation Climatology Project(GPCP) which was established by the WMO/ICSU [World Meteorological Organization/International Council of Scientific Unions] Joint Scientific Committee for the World Climate Research Programme [WCRP] at its Seventh Session(Lisbon, March 1986). The GPCC itself was established in August 1988 at the "Deutscher Wetterdienst"("DWD", National Meteorological Service of Germany) starting with a research and development phase. The GPCC is now going to be operational, and it is operated by the DWD as a contribution to international climate observation and research activities. The GPCC has internationally defined functions. In the future, the GPCC will act as a GCOS [Global Climate Observing System] specified global data centre for precipitation, and in this role, it will continue to participate in the GPCP, as agreed by WCRP, GCOS, and DWD. It also co-operates with WCP-Water, Global Runoff Data Centre(GRDC), UNEP-GRID Programme, and FAO Water-Department. 3, record 5, English, - Global%20Precipitation%20Climatology%20Centre
