Enterprise Governance, Risk Management, and Compliance (eGRC) help businesses to manage interdependencies between corporate governance policies, regulatory compliance, and risk management programs. A well-coordinated GRC program can address many of the challenges of the traditional, siloed approach to risk and compliance, such as miscommunications, interdepartmental tension, and sundry inefficiencies. eGRC can be used by organizations of any size, but it’s more valuable for large enterprises. The right GRC tools drive better decision-making, increase transparency, and facilitate sound and comprehensive corporate financial reporting.

English | ISBN: 9463728473 | 2021 | 404 pages | PDF | 5 MB
In an effort to fight climate change, many cities try to boost their cycling levels. They often look towards the Dutch for guidance. However, historians have only begun to uncover how and why the Netherlands became the premier cycling country of the world. Why were Dutch cyclists so successful in their fight for a place on the road? Cycling Pathways: The Politics and Governance of Dutch Cycling Infrastructure, 1920-2020 explores the long political struggle that culminated in today’s high cycling levels. Delving into the archives, it uncovers the important role of social movements and shows in detail how these interacted with national, provincial, and urban engineers and policymakers to govern the distribution of road space and construction of cycling infrastructure. It discusses a wide range of topics, ranging from activists to engineering committees, from urban commuters to recreational cyclists and from the early 1900s to today in order to uncover the long and all-but-forgotten history of Dutch cycling governance.

English, French | December 29, 2008 | ISBN: 2869782128 | 68 pages | PDF | 1.54 Mb
The West African sub-region has a distinctive history as one of the most dynamic parts of the African continent. Forged out of a long, often contradictory, always contested trajectory of state formation, dissolution, and recomposition that has been accompanied at different stages by widespread population movements, the sub-region has, inevitably, grappled with a wide range of core, enduring governance questions. These questions have contributed, to one degree or another, to the making and character ofcontemporary state systems, as well as the political cultures underpinning them. It is hoped that readers of this synthesis report will find it useful as a quick and easily digestible summary of some of the key developments in West Africa that had a direct bearing on governance in the sub-region during 2006. The report does not pretend to be exhaustive-it cannot possibly be. Nor is it constructed as a chronological account-that was not deemed desirable. Rather, it seeks, in an omnibus mann
