Working towards unlocking the water potential of agriculture
This CD-ROM contains a collection of primary sources of information, produced by FAO, on the role of water in agricultural development. It has been prepared by the Land and Water Development Division of FAO for the third World Water Forum (WWF-3). The documents and data collections on the CD-ROM contain background information on the questions and issues debated at the WWF-3. They enable a wider public to gain ready access to a more comprehensive range of FAO forecasts, assessments, technical studies and guidelines in the field of agricultural water development. They are complementary to the background document and issue papers presented and distributed widely by FAO at the WWF-3.

Social economic survey 2002: Somalia; Technical report on design and implementation
(Extract from the foreword)This report is the outcome of a multi-sectoral nationwide household survey, the first of its kind in Somalia for over two decades. The report provides statistics on demographic and housing characteristics, access to basic services, household income and employment, modes of communication and women's participation in family decision making and community-level activities, among other things. Individually, these statistics provide valuable information on different facets of socio-economic characteristics, and together they reflect to a certain extent, the well-being of an average Somali household.
