About 15% of the world's population lives with some form of disability, of whom 2-4% experience significant difficulties in functioning. The global disability prevalence is higher than previous WHO estimates, which date from the 1970s and suggested a figure of around 10%. This global estimate for disability is on the rise due to population ageing and the rapid spread of chronic diseases, as well as improvements in the methodologies used to measure disability. Provides the first global estimates of persons with disabilities in 40 years and an overview of the status of disability in the world. New research shows that almost one-fifth of the estimated global total of persons living with disabilities, or between 110-190 million, encounter significant difficulties. The report stresses that few countries have adequate mechanisms in place to respond to the needs of people with disabilities. Barriers include stigma and discrimination, lack of adequate health care and rehabilitation services; and inaccessible transport, buildings and information and communication technologies. As a result, people with disabilities experience poorer health, lower educational achievements, fewer economic opportunities and higher rates of poverty than people without disabilities. Reviews evidence about the situation of people with disabilities around the world. Following chapters on understanding disability and measuring disability, the report contains topic-specific chapters on health; rehabilitation; assistance and support; enabling environments; education; and employment. Within each chapter, there is a discussion of the barriers confronted, and case studies showing how countries have succeeded in addressing these by promoting good practice. In its final chapter, the report offers nine concrete recommendations for policy and practice which if put in place could lead to real improvements in the lives of people with disability.

This contributed book focuses on major aspects of statistical quality control, shares insights into important new developments in the field, and adapts established statistical quality control methods for use in e.g. big data, network analysis and medical applications. The content is divided into two parts, the first of which mainly addresses statistical process control, also known as statistical process monitoring. In turn, the second part explores selected topics in statistical quality control, including measurement uncertainty analysis and data quality. The peer-reviewed contributions gathered here were originally presented at the 13th International Workshop on Intelligent Statistical Quality Control, ISQC 2019, held in Hong Kong on August 12-14, 2019. Taken together, they bridge the gap between theory and practice, making the book of interest to both practitioners and researchers in the field of statistical quality control.

"Les personnes, les entreprises et la planete sont-elles devenues ingerables? Est-ce que l'epuisement professionnel, le desengagement au travail, la corruption, les inegalites sociales et la degradation de la biosphere sont inevitables? L'objectif de cet ouvrage est d'insuffler un vent d'espoir en proposant des solutions concretes basees sur les valeurs cardinales du management responsable. Ce type de management integre, dans ses activites et ses outils, la triple contrainte sociale, economique et environnementale du developpement durable. Chaque chapitre s'articule autour d'une valeur qui est deployee sur les plans individuel, organisationnel et societal. Le management responsable n'est pas une methode que l'on peut appliquer en suivant une recette ; il implique de repenser nos habitudes et nos prejuges et de reflechir aux valeurs qui guident nos actions. Il interpelle les personnes qui sont prêtes à participer à la creation de milieux de travail plus harmonieux et de communautes humaines plus sereines sur une planete en sante. S'il est permis de croire que le management responsable represente dejà une aspiration, un ideal, pour bon nombre de personnes, cet ouvrage vise à leur donner des moyens d'incarner cet ideal au quotidien, à travers les pratiques de gestion responsables qui y sont presentees."--Resume de l'editeur.
