Ekonomická efektivita péče o životní prostředí
ACCON managers & partners, s.r.o., Tursko ; Podhorský, Václav
Problém hodnocení ekonomické efektivnosti veřejných výdajů není dosud komplexně vyřešen v ekonomické teorii a jeho aplikace trpí různorodostí v přístupu. to se projevuje mimo jiné tím, že jak ex-ante tak ex-post evaluace nejsou v žádném případě samozřejmostí, není k dispozici jednotná metodika nebo algoritmy pro její provádění u veřejných projektů a veřejných programů včetně environmentálních. Finanční dopady opatření v oblasti životního prostředí jsou vždy specifické z hlediska zdrojů financování, tj. finanční prostředky z veřejných zdrojů, zahraničních i soukromých zdrojů. Hodnocení efektivnosti realizovaných opatření se provádí na základě komparativních metod porovnáním vynaložených finančních prostředků a dosažených přínosů. V oblasti životního prostředí se porovnávají náklady vynaložené na zlepšení životního prostředí s dosaženými environmentálními efekty (např. snížení emisí dané škodliviny do ovzduší, do vody, do půdy). Efektivita opatření realizovaných v oblasti životního prostředí je nejpodrobněji sledována v rámci Státního fondu životního prostředí ČR, který je ze zákona vybaven jak nástroji, tak i finančními prostředky. Rešerše bibliografických publikací je pokusem o zmapování situace v dané problematice.

The civil war in Somalia
Netopilová, Eliška ; Kochan, Jan (advisor) ; Pavlicová, Vendula (referee)
The level of living in many states in Africa is below-average, when compared to the European standard. One of the main challenges of the UN is peacemaking and peacekeeping in an international community. The UN tries to reach the point by using various means. In case of Sub-Saharan Africa, therefore Somalia too, exerts the UN an influence by force of peacekeeping missions and indirectly by means of specialized agencies of the UN. The aspiration of this bachelor thesis is to assess the effects of the UN and the specialized agencies of the UN on the conflict solution and on the level of living of the people living in Somalia. Somalis suffer from malnutrition, dehydration and mortal diseases by reason of a civil war that has lasted for more than two decades. High rate of illiteracy also reduces prospects for well-paid job and thus the ability to make livelihood. The UN tries to handle the situation inter alia by security reasons. By ensuring primary human needs would be created social harmony and reduced crime that could be a potential threat to the international community.

The evaluation of this project is reduced to two of the total number of eight goals and to the region of Sub-Saharan Africa. First part of this work describes a subject-matter and a purpose of this project. It is concerned with theme poverty and with a historical background of rise of problems with poverty in Sub-Saharan countries. Then there are described methods which UN uses for monitoring of reaching the defined goals. Ways of financing an assistance for developing countries are also described. Second part of the work is aimed at the first goal of the project which is: eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. This part begins with adumbration of possible ways and methods of measuring and identifying poverty. Afterwards there is described and evaluated a state and a progress of fulfilling this goal. Perspectives of future progress are also adumbrated. Third part is concerned with the sixth goal of the evaluated project: combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases. After an introduction to the issue, there is also considered a state and a progress of reaching the goal and a possible future progress is presented.
