En muchos países, la falta de personal es uno de los principales obstáculos al reforzamiento de la prestación de servicios de atención primaria de salud y otros tipos de servicios de salud, incluidos los de índole curativa, promocional, preventiva y de rehabilitación. Muchos países carecen actualmente de capacidad técnica para el seguimiento adecuado de su personal de salud: a menudo, los datos no son fiables o son obsoletos, no se aplican definiciones comunes ni instrumentos analíticos de eficacia probada, y se carece de la preparación y la experiencia necesarias para evaluar los problemas fundamentales de las políticas. El presente Manual tiene el propósito de fortalecer esa capacidad técnica. Brinda a los gestores de la salud, los investigadores y los formuladores de políticas referencias estandarizadas y de cómodo manejo para el seguimiento y la evaluación de los recursos humanos para la salud. Reúne un marco analítico con opciones estratégicas para mejorar la información y los datos relativos a la fuerza laboral, así como las experiencias de los países para poner de relieve los planteamientos que han dado buenos resultados. El documento debe considerarse fruto de una labor continua que permitirá conocer mejor los recursos humanos para la salud y contribuirá de manera significativa al creciente arsenal de instrumentos e investigaciones aplicadas ideados para afrontar el reto de medir y mejorar los resultados de la fuerza laboral sanitaria, fortalecer los sistemas de salud y, en última instancia, mejorar la salud de la población.

This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

National information needs on forests have grown considerably in recent years, evolving from forest area and growing stock information to key aspects of sustainable forest management, such as the role of forests in the conservation of biodiversity and the provision of other ecosystem services. More recently, information on changes in carbon stocks, socio-economic aspects including the contribution to livelihoods and poverty reduction, governance and broader land use issues has become critical for national planning.
