De 2021 à 2023, la Banque mondiale a mené des travaux d'analyse régionaux dans le cadre des services de conseil et d'analyse de soutien aux systèmes d'aéronefs sans pilote (drones) dans les projets et les opérations en Amérique latine et dans les Caraïbes (LAC). Le travail a consisté à...

Computer vision enhances the environment and hence enhances the use of the drones. Most computations are local and are thus is the reason why edge computing reduces drone latency. The capability of fast data processing allows the drones to operate in safety-critical industrial missions on their...

Drop-in alternative liquid fuels-Renewable Diesel (RD) and Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)-offer material near-term abatement for hard-to-electrify transport segments, such as Aviation and heavy-duty transport; their deployment depends on pathway-specific costs, hydrogen requirements, and policy...

Using a novel dataset in a difference-in-differences framework, I study the political implications of the change in policies protecting drought-impacted communities in Tunisia in 3088 districts. In 2016, the Tunisian government had drastically reduced support to farmers affected by droughts. I...

Severe droughts are currently affecting most of northern Africa, large regions in southern Africa including in particular the Zambezi basin and northern Madagascar, and some regions in central-western Africa and East-Africa. The average temperature is abnormally higher than usual. Heatwaves and...

Drought conditions are affecting large parts of eastern and southern Europe, the Mediterranean region, and the Baltic countries. Northern Africa and the Middle East are severely affected too. • Recent above-average temperatures in Scandinavia, the Baltic countries, the Alps, the eastern...
