The Welfare Approach. Introduced in the 1950s and 1960s, welfare is the earliest policy approach concerned with developing countries. Its purpose is to bring women into development as better mothers.... The reproductive role of women is recognized and policy seeks to meet practical gender needs through that role by top-down handouts of food aid, measures against malnutrition and family planning. It is non-challenging and therefore still widely popular. 2, record 5, English, - practical%20gender%20need

Un nouveau centre de recherche et de formation de l'Université des Nations Unies pour l'innovation, la technologie et le développement est né officiellement le 1er janvier 2006. Ce nouveau centre, dont le nom est UNU-MERIT (Centre de Recherche Economique et Sociale et de Formation de Maastricht pour l'Innovation et la Technologie) est le résultat d'un accord de coopération entre l'UNU et l'Université de Maastricht. L'inauguration de l UNU-MERIT fait suite à une période transitoire d'un an, durant laquelle les deux universités ont décidé de la manière d'intégrer leurs instituts de recherche respectifs l'Institut pour les Nouvelles Technologies de l'UNU (UNU-INTECH) et le MERIT. Le principal but de la fusion de ces deux instituts basés à Maastricht était de mettre en commun leurs ressources intellectuelles et de réaliser des synergies dans le contenu de leurs recherches et leur organisation. L'UNU-MERIT s'attachera à atteindre trois objectifs primordiaux : devenir un centre de recherche de classe internationale d'excellence académique attirant les meilleurs chercheurs de par le monde; devenir un centre de recherche essentiel en matière de politiques de la connaissance à un niveau global, national, et régional dans les pays en développement aussi bien que dans les pays développés; devenir un centre de formation international universitaire et politique, proposant des formations et la supervision de doctorats aussi bien qu'un centre de formation politique pour les étudiants et les fonctionnaires des pays en développement et des pays développés. 1, record 11, French, - Centre%20de%20Recherche%20Economique%20et%20Sociale%20et%20de%20Formation%20de%20Maastricht%20pour%20l%27Innovation%20et%20la%20Technologie%20de%20l%27Universit%C3%A9%20des%20Nations%20Unies

The Welfare Approach. Introduced in the 1950s and 1960s, welfare is the earliest policy approach concerned with developing countries. Its purpose is to bring women into development as better mothers. Women are seen as passive beneficiaries of development. The reproductive role of women is recognized and policy seeks to meet practical gender needs through that role by top-down handouts of food aid, measures against malnutrition and family planning. It is non-challenging and therefore still widely popular. 2, record 14, English, - welfare%20approach
