    39. World Congress of Vine and Wine, 2016/10/24-28, Bento Gonçalves (Brésil)International audienceIn a global market, food companies engaged in sustainable development must now integrate the economic and social component. However the tools to assess it are lacking. Several theoretical frameworks have been developed to define social sustainability and its implementation. The attributional approaches, pathways or capabilities methods have emerged, based on a functional unit of a good or service along the supply chain. This paper proposes a new method to assess social economic and territorial performances of a food chain as a whole on a Territory. It is divided into four components: (i) dignity and well-being of workers, (ii) contribution to local life, (iii) fairness and integrity of business practices, and (iv) creation of material and intangible wealth. 50 criteria are used according to international, national or sectoral references. This generic method applicable to any sector of processed food products aims to identify where are the areas of improvement to qualify the sector as socially sustainable. An application to the wine Beaujolais and Burgundy wine was performed from surveys of 35 production and trade operators in 2014. The results show that the sector is particularly effective for the promotion of the territory, local life participation, loyalty and integrity of business practices; some improvement is still possible for the welfare of workers and the creation of material wealth. This method can be coupled with the environmental performance determined by the life cycle analysis in order to assess the sustainability in its entirety

    Le dualisme agraire méditerranéen: disparition ou résilience de l’agriculture familiale ?

    No full text
    International audienceLe système agraire méditerranéen est caractérisé par de fortes disparités d’accès aux ressources naturelles, aux financements et à l’information des agriculteurs. Ce caractère prend la forme d’un dualisme faisant coexister une agriculture dite moderne et une agriculture dite traditionnelle. Prenant acte de cette évolution, le séminaire du réseau de recherche Foncimed, organisé à Tunis les 16 et 17 octobre 2015, a choisi d’étudier les interrelations entre ces deux types d’agricultures. S’appuyant sur les communications présentées lors de ce séminaire, cette contribution est structurée en trois points : persistance du dualisme agraire méditerranéen ; crise des agricultures familiales ; facteurs de résilience

    Youth, women and rural development: agricultural policies to pave the way forward

    Regional ENPARD South Seminar, 2016/10/06-07, Brussels (Belgium) Introductory note. ENPARD South initiative (European Commission)Rural youth and women remain vulnerable groups in the MENA region. Common vulnerability factors include low access to the needed capitals for economic and human development. Where they are possible, they remain essentially informal and precarious. Still, young people and women have specific advantages both for agriculture and the organization of development in rural areas. Young people are more and more numerous in the population of the MENA region. Agriculture remains their first source of employment even informal. Women have to assume more and more responsibilities in household works due to the migration of many heads of household related to economic reasons. In fact, the key blocking factors mostly remain cultural ones. At the policy level, little priority seems to be given to these trends: neither specific means, nor adapted policy is thought out or implemented to enable the youth and women to develop their participation in agricultural and rural development. Rural women and young people mostly find themselves in strategies that look for circumventing the constraints they face, which far from solving their difficulties, only reinforces their situation of vulnerability and precariousness and their marginalization of the formal economic system. In the middle term, this lack of interest will have serious consequences on the situation of rural areas and their agriculture, and even on the social stability in the region. The current socio‐political upheavals in the MENA region should all the more strongly encourage the public authorities to undertake reforms in favor of these social groups because youth and women are key resources to guarantee social and economic stability in the middle and long term
