School enrolment rates returned to the pre conflict level of around 25 per cent.

Rate of penetration and absolute levels of use of new end use technologies

Provision of education to girls and women at all levels on water issues can promote more efficient water use and water resource management.

On the other hand, the abundance of fossil fuel energy in some member countries has encouraged unsustainable production and consumption patterns that have an adverse impact on the environment.

I believe we should soon switch to a policy of ensuring parity between the hryvnya exchange rate and the rate of inflation.

Other Parties used vulnerability indices, such as population distribution and growth, urbanization, mortality and water consumption, to evaluate the vulnerability of human settlements.

Economic incentives for efficient water use, for example, could be an integral part of water supply expansion projects.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority bought Hong Kong dollars and sold Hong Kong dollars at the level of 7.85 according to the linked exchange rate system, in order to maintain the stability of the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars.

(a) Comprehensive package in 60 countries with high child mortality and low WASH coverage

Malnutrition rates were rising, especially among children and women water contamination and the deterioration of health services had led to an ever higher mortality rate resulting from infectious diseases and epidemics.

Both frequency and tariff levels are a matter of concern.

Traveller (nomadic) women had a higher mortality rate, lower life expectancy and stillbirth and infant mortality rates nearly triple those of the population as a whole.

Although it is difficult to anticipate how high long term interest rates will eventually rise, the large budget deficit and the rising level of the national debt suggest that the real rate will be higher than 2 . A higher rate of expected inflation would also cause the total nominal rate to be greater than 5 .

With respect to immunization, the national coverage was maintained well above the target level of 90 per cent for under ones for the five antigens.

This model relates the distribution of major ecosystems ( life zones ) to the climate variables of biotemperature, mean precipitation, and the ratio of potential evapotranspiration to precipitation (PET ratio).

Efficiency improvements in water use could also avert the current water crisis in the cities of many developing countries.

Moreover, unemployment in the eurozone has skyrocketed to an average rate of roughly 12 , with more than 50 youth unemployment in the periphery countries implying a long term loss of talent and erosion of the tax base. And, despite the spike in unemployment, productivity growth in the eurozone is decidedly negative.

Data on productivity levels relative to the United States showed that, at the aggregate level, there had been no progress in closing the gap this was because the rapid productivity gains in the capital intensive, resource based sectors had been offset by declining productivity in the remaining sectors.

Currently, the infant mortality rate in Shanghai has dropped to 3.71 , which is significantly lower than the national average level and has reached the advanced level of developed countries.
