Le droit de propriété est le droit d'user (usus), de jouir (fructus) et de disposer (abusus) d'une chose, d'en être le maître absolu dans les conditions fixées par la loi. Dans le droit français, « La propriété est le droit de jouir et disposer des choses de la manière la plus absolue, pourvu qu’on n’en fasse pas un usage prohibé par les lois ou par les règlements » (article 544 du Code civil). La propriété désigne également le bien sur lequel porte ce droit civil. Cette propriété peut être immobilière ou mobilière, si l'on en croit l'adage selon lequel en fait de meuble, possession vaut titre (de propriété). Selon certains philosophes, les droits de propriété découlent de conventions sociales ou de contrats. Selon d'autres[Qui ?], ils trouvent leurs origines dans la loi naturelle. [réf. nécessaire] L'usage et la gestion collectifs, souvent considérés comme propriété collective, existent depuis fort longtemps et sont bien attestés dans les sociétés et cultures traditionnelles. Les premières théories juridiques formelles de la propriété privée se constituent dans une perspective individualiste, en particulier dans le libéralisme. Celui-ci consacre le droit de propriété au sens moderne comme un droit naturel et une prérogative des personnes physiques. Le retour et l'accès des personnes morales au droit de propriété se fait ultérieurement et progressivement [réf. souhaitée]. Le droit anglo-américain connait la propriété personnelle. La propriété existe aussi pour ce qu'on appelle propriété intellectuelle : droits sur les créations artistiques, les inventions… Le droit de propriété fait aujourd'hui l'objet d'un renouveau d'attention, notamment au travers de la question de son aptitude à gérer les biens informatiques (logiciels, systèmes), en harmonie avec le droit de la propriété intellectuelle. Le droit de propriété est un droit subjectif [pas clair]. +
Les droits culturels s’inscrivent dans le cadre juridique des droits de l’homme. Ils visent à faire reconnaître le droit de chaque personne à participer à la vie culturelle, de vivre et d’exprimer sa culture et ses références, dans le respect des autres droits humains fondamentaux. +
The cultural rights movement has provoked attention to protect the rights of groups of people, or their culture, in similar fashion to the manner in which the human rights movement has brought attention to the needs of individuals throughout the world. +
Women's rights are the rights and entitlements claimed for women and girls worldwide. They formed the basis for the women's rights movement in the 19th century and the feminist movements during the 20th and 21st centuries. In some countries, these rights are institutionalized or supported by law, local custom, and behavior, whereas in others, they are ignored and suppressed. They differ from broader notions of human rights through claims of an inherent historical and traditional bias against the exercise of rights by women and girls, in favor of men and boys. Issues commonly associated with notions of women's rights include the right to bodily integrity and autonomy, to be free from sexual violence, to vote, to hold public office, to enter into legal contracts, to have equal rights in family law, to work, to fair wages or equal pay, to have reproductive rights, to own property, and to education. +

Irrigation is the agricultural process of applying controlled amounts of water to land to assist in the production of crops, as well as to grow landscape plants and lawns, where it may be known as watering. Agriculture that does not use irrigation but instead relies only on direct rainfall is referred to as rain-fed. Irrigation has been a central feature of agriculture for over 5,000 years and has been developed independently by many cultures across the globe. Irrigation helps to grow agricultural crops, maintain landscapes, and revegetate disturbed soils in dry areas and during periods of less than average rainfall. Irrigation also has other uses in crop production, including frost protection, suppressing weed growth in grain fields and preventing soil consolidation. Irrigation systems are also used for cooling livestock, dust suppression, disposal of sewage, and in mining. Irrigation is often studied together with drainage, which is the removal of surface and sub-surface water from a given location. There are various types of irrigation. Micro-irrigation uses less pressure and water flow than overhead irrigation. Drip irrigation trickles out at the root zone. +
Sanitation refers to public health conditions related to clean drinking water and treatment and disposal of human excreta and sewage. Preventing human contact with feces is part of sanitation, as is hand washing with soap. Sanitation systems aim to protect human health by providing a clean environment that will stop the transmission of disease, especially through the fecal–oral route. For example, diarrhea, a main cause of malnutrition and stunted growth in children, can be reduced through adequate sanitation. There are many other diseases which are easily transmitted in communities that have low levels of sanitation, such as ascariasis (a type of intestinal worm infection or helminthiasis), cholera, hepatitis, polio, schistosomiasis, and trachoma, to name just a few. A range of sanitation technologies and approaches exists. Some examples are community-led total sanitation, container-based sanitation, ecological sanitation, emergency sanitation, environmental sanitation, and sustainable sanitation. A sanitation system includes the capture, storage, transport, treatment and disposal or reuse of human excreta and wastewater. Reuse activities within the sanitation system may focus on the nutrients, water, energy or organic matter contained in excreta and wastewater. This is referred to as the "sanitation value chain" or "sanitation economy". The people responsible for cleaning, maintaining, operating, or emptying a sanitation technology at any step of the sanitation chain are called "sanitation workers". Several sanitation "levels" are being used to compare sanitation service levels within countries or across countries. The sanitation ladder defined by the Joint Monitoring Programme in 2016 starts at open defecation and moves upwards using the terms "unimproved", "limited", "basic", with the highest level being "safely managed". This is particularly applicable to developing countries. The Human Right to Water and Sanitation was recognized by the United Nations (UN) General Assembly in 2010. Sanitation is a global development priority and the subject of Sustainable Development Goal 6. The estimate in 2017 by JMP states that 4.5 billion people currently do not have safely managed sanitation. Lack of access to sanitation has an impact not only on public health but also on human dignity and personal safety.
Drinking water is water that is used in drink or food preparation; potable water is water that is safe to be used as drinking water. The amount of drinking water required to maintain good health varies, and depends on physical activity level, age, health-related issues, and environmental conditions. Recent work showed that the most important driver of water turnover which is closely linked to water requirements is energy expenditure. For those who work in a hot climate, up to 16 litres (4.2 US gal) a day may be required. Typically in developed countries, tap water meets drinking water quality standards, even though only a small proportion is actually consumed or used in food preparation. Other typical uses for tap water include washing, toilets, and irrigation. Greywater may also be used for toilets or irrigation. Its use for irrigation however may be associated with risks. Water may also be unacceptable due to levels of toxins or suspended solids. Globally, by 2015, 89% of people had access to water from a source that is suitable for drinking – called improved water source. In sub-Saharan Africa, access to potable water ranged from 40% to 80% of the population. Nearly 4.2 billion people worldwide had access to tap water, while another 2.4 billion had access to wells or public taps. The World Health Organization considers access to safe drinking-water a basic human right. About 1 to 2 billion people lack safe drinking water. Water can carry vectors of disease. More people die from unsafe water than from war, then-U.N. secretary-general Ban Ki-moon said in 2010. Third world countries are most affected by lack of water, flooding, and water quality. Up to 80 percent of illnesses in developing countries are the direct result of inadequate water and sanitation. According to a report by UNICEF and UNESCO, Finland has the best drinking water quality in the world. +
Une eau liquide est dite potable (du latin potabilis, qui signifie « qui peut être bu ») lorsqu'elle présente certaines caractéristiques — concentration en chlorures, pH, température… — la rendant propre à la consommation humaine. +
Groundwater is the water present beneath Earth's surface in rock and soil pore spaces and in the fractures of rock formations. About 30 percent of all readily available freshwater in the world is groundwater. A unit of rock or an unconsolidated deposit is called an aquifer when it can yield a usable quantity of water. The depth at which soil pore spaces or fractures and voids in rock become completely saturated with water is called the water table. Groundwater is recharged from the surface; it may discharge from the surface naturally at springs and seeps, and can form oases or wetlands. Groundwater is also often withdrawn for agricultural, municipal, and industrial use by constructing and operating extraction wells. The study of the distribution and movement of groundwater is hydrogeology, also called groundwater hydrology. Typically, groundwater is thought of as water flowing through shallow aquifers, but, in the technical sense, it can also contain soil moisture, permafrost (frozen soil), immobile water in very low permeability bedrock, and deep geothermal or oil formation water. Groundwater is hypothesized to provide lubrication that can possibly influence the movement of faults. It is likely that much of Earth's subsurface contains some water, which may be mixed with other fluids in some instances. Groundwater is often cheaper, more convenient and less vulnerable to pollution than surface water. Therefore, it is commonly used for public water supplies. For example, groundwater provides the largest source of usable water storage in the United States, and California annually withdraws the largest amount of groundwater of all the states. Underground reservoirs contain far more water than the capacity of all surface reservoirs and lakes in the US, including the Great Lakes. Many municipal water supplies are derived solely from groundwater. Over 2 billion people rely on it as their primary water source worldwide. Use of groundwater has related environmental issues. For example, polluted groundwater is less visible and more difficult to clean up than pollution in rivers and lakes. Groundwater pollution most often results from improper disposal of wastes on land. Major sources include industrial and household chemicals and garbage landfills, excessive fertilizers and pesticides used in agriculture, industrial waste lagoons, tailings and process wastewater from mines, industrial fracking, oil field brine pits, leaking underground oil storage tanks and pipelines, sewage sludge and septic systems. Additionally, groundwater is susceptible to saltwater intrusion in coastal areas and can cause land subsidence when extracted unsustainably, leading to sinking cities (like Bangkok)) and loss in elevation (such as the multiple meters lost in the Central Valley of California). These issues are made more complicated by sea level rise and other changes caused by climate changes which will affect the water cycle.
Les eaux souterraines sont toutes les eaux se trouvant sous la surface du sol, dans la zone de saturation et en contact direct avec le sol ou le sous-sol. En tant que ressource naturelle vitale et plus ou moins renouvelable et parfois transfrontalières, ces eaux posent des questions juridiques particulières. C'est parfois une source de conflit inter ethnique ou entre pays. Les aquifères souterrains sont la réserve majeure (98 à 99 %)de l'eau douce exploitable sur les terres émergées. L’utilisation de l’eau souterraine se répartit de façon variable d’un pays à l’autre. Les pourcentages d’utilisation, selon les trois catégories, sont les suivants :
* 65 % (0 à 97 %) pour l’irrigation;
* 25 % (0 à 93 %) pour l'eau potable;
* 10 % (0 à 64 %) pour l'industrie. La carte des réserves aquifères connues en 2008 (publiée par l'UNESCO) montre 273 aquifères transfrontaliers (68 en Amérique, 38 en Afrique, 65 en Europe de l'Est, 90 en Europe occidentale et 12 en Asie où le recensement n'était pas terminé). Les aquifères majeurs connus en 2008 étaient en Amérique du Sud et Afrique du Nord. Les grands aquifères d'Afrique centrale sont encore mal explorés et rarement exploitées. La multiplication des pompes électriques et petits systèmes de pompage et forage a fortement augmenté la pression sur les nappes, souvent surexploitées dans les zones habitées et de grandes cultures et parfois déjà pollués. Leur exploitation pose aussi des questions sur nos responsabilités à l'égard des générations futures ou de l'amont vers l'aval (du point de vue du sens de circulation des masses d'eau souterraines, ou de leur alimentation via les bassins versants en surface le cas échéant). Il existe des eaux fossiles non renouvelables aux échelles humaines de temps et des aquifères profonds qui ne sont que très lentement réalimentés. +
Ecotourism is a form of tourism involving responsible travel (using sustainable transport) to natural areas, conserving the environment, and improving the well-being of the local people. Its purpose may be to educate the traveler, to provide funds for ecological conservation, to directly benefit the economic development and political empowerment of local communities, or to foster respect for different cultures and for human rights. Since the 1980s, ecotourism has been considered a critical endeavor by environmentalists, so that future generations may experience destinations relatively untouched by human intervention. Ecotourism may focus on educating travelers on local environments and natural surroundings with an eye to ecological conservation. Some include in the definition of ecotourism the effort to produce economic opportunities that make conservation of natural resources financially possible. Generally, ecotourism deals with interaction with biotic components of the natural environments. Ecotourism focuses on socially responsible travel, personal growth, and environmental sustainability. Ecotourism typically involves travel to destinations where flora, fauna, and cultural heritage are the primary attractions. Ecotourism is intended to offer tourists an insight into the impact of human beings on the environment and to foster a greater appreciation of our natural habitats. Ecotourism aims at minimal environmental impact on the areas visited. Besides fostering respect towards the natural environment, ecotourism also helps in creating socio-economic benefits for the communities of the area visited. Responsible ecotourism programs include those that minimize the negative aspects of conventional tourism on the environment and enhance the cultural integrity of local people. Therefore, in addition to evaluating environmental and cultural factors, an integral part of ecotourism is the promotion of recycling, energy efficiency, water conservation, and creation of economic opportunities for local communities. For these reasons, ecotourism often appeals to advocates of environmental and social responsibility. Many consider the term "ecotourism", like "sustainable tourism" (which is a related concept but broader), an oxymoron. Like most long-distance travel, ecotourism often depends on air transportation, which contributes to climate change. Additionally, "the overall effect of sustainable tourism is negative where like ecotourism philanthropic aspirations mask hard-nosed immediate self-interest."
In capitalism, the sharing economy is a socio-economic system built around the sharing of resources. It often involves a way of purchasing goods and services that differs from the traditional business model of companies hiring employees to produce products to sell to consumers. It includes the shared creation, production, distribution, trade and consumption of goods and services by different people and organisations. These systems take a variety of forms, often leveraging information technology (particularly digital platforms) to empower individuals, corporations, non-profits and government with information that enables distribution, sharing and reuse of excess capacity in goods and services. There are two main types of sharing economy initiatives:
* Non-profit, usually based on the concept of book-lending libraries, in which goods and services are provided for free (or sometimes for a modest subscription).
* Commercial, in which a company provides a service to customers for profit. +
A subsistence economy is an economy directed to basic subsistence (the provision of food, clothing, shelter) rather than to the market. Henceforth, "subsistence" is understood as supporting oneself at a minimum level. Often, the subsistence economy is moneyless and relies on natural resources to provide for basic needs through hunting, gathering, and agriculture. In a subsistence economy, economic surplus is minimal and only used to trade for basic goods, and there is no industrialization.In hunting and gathering societies, resources are often if not typically underused. In human history, before the first cities, all humans lived in a subsistence economy. As urbanization, civilization, and division of labor spread, various societies moved to other economic systems at various times. Some remain relatively unchanged, ranging from uncontacted peoples, to marginalized areas of developing countries, to some cultures that choose to retain a traditional economy. Capital can be generally defined as assets invested with the expectation that their value will increase, usually because there is the expectation of profit, rent, interest, royalties, capital gain or some other kind of return. However, this type of economy cannot usually become wealthy by virtue of the system, and instead requires further investments to stimulate economic growth. In other words, a subsistence economy only possesses enough goods to be used by a particular nation to maintain its existence and provides little to no surplus for other investments. It is common for a surplus capital to be invested in social capital such as feasting. +
The social economy is formed by a rich diversity of enterprises and organisations, such as cooperatives, mutuals, associations, foundations, social enterprises and paritarian institutions, sharing common values and features:
* Primacy of the individual and the social objective over capital
* Voluntary and open membership
* Democratic governance
* Combination of interests of members/users and/or the general interest
* Defence and application of the principles of solidarity and responsibility
* Autonomous management and independence from public authorities, though cross-sector collaboration is common
* Reinvestment of at least most of the profits to carry out sustainable development objectives, services of interest to members or of general interest Social economy enterprises and organisations have different sizes, ranging from SMEs to large companies and groups that are leaders in their markets, and operate in all the economic sectors. +
A gift economy or gift culture is a system of exchange where valuables are not sold, but rather given without an explicit agreement for immediate or future rewards. Social norms and customs govern giving a gift in a gift culture; although there is some expectation of reciprocity, gifts are not given in an explicit exchange of goods or services for money, or some other commodity or service. This contrasts with a barter economy or a market economy, where goods and services are primarily explicitly exchanged for value received. The nature of gift economies is the subject of a foundational debate in anthropology. Anthropological research into gift economies began with Bronisław Malinowski's description of the Kula ring in the Trobriand Islands during World War I. The Kula trade appeared to be gift-like since Trobrianders would travel great distances over dangerous seas to give what were considered valuable objects without any guarantee of a return. Malinowski's debate with the French anthropologist Marcel Mauss quickly established the complexity of "gift exchange" and introduced a series of technical terms such as reciprocity, inalienable possessions, and presentation to distinguish between the different forms of exchange. According to anthropologists Maurice Bloch and Jonathan Parry, it is the unsettled relationship between market and non-market exchange that attracts the most attention. Some authors argue that gift economies build community, while markets harm community relationships. Gift exchange is distinguished from other forms of exchange by a number of principles, such as the form of property rights governing the articles exchanged; whether gifting forms a distinct "sphere of exchange" that can be characterized as an "economic system"; and the character of the social relationship that the gift exchange establishes. Gift ideology in highly commercialized societies differs from the "prestations" typical of non-market societies. Gift economies also differ from related phenomena, such as common property regimes and the exchange of non-commodified labour.
An ecodistrict or eco-district is a neologism associating the terms "district" and "eco" as an abbreviation of ecological.It designates an urban planning aiming to integrate objectives of sustainable development and social equity and reduce the ecological footprint of a neighborhood, urban area, or region. This notion insists on the consideration of the whole environmental issues by way of a collaborative process. In order to design ecodistricts, one needs to completely redesign their energy system plans. The usage of photovoltaic panels and electric vehicles is common. +

L'écotourisme, associé au tourisme vert, est l’une des formes du tourisme durable, plus centrée sur la découverte de la nature (écosystèmes, mais aussi agrosystèmes et tourisme rural), voire d'écologie urbaine (jardins écologiques, espaces verts écologiques, réserves naturelles urbaines et autres aspects de l'écologie urbaine). +
L'éducation populaire (en Belgique, éducation permanente) est un courant de pensée qui cherche principalement à promouvoir, en dehors des structures traditionnelles d'enseignement et des systèmes éducatifs institutionnels, une éducation visant l'amélioration du système social. Depuis le XVIIIe siècle occidental, ce courant d'idées traverse de nombreux et divers mouvements qui militent plus largement pour le développement individuel des personnes et le développement social communautaire (dans un quartier, une ville ou un groupe d'appartenance, religion, origine géographique, lieu d'habitation, etc.) afin de permettre à chacun de s'épanouir et de trouver une place dans la société. Il s’agit, plus largement, de faciliter l’accès aux savoirs, à la culture, afin de développer la conscientisation, l’émancipation et l’exercice de la citoyenneté, "en recourant aux pédagogies actives pour rendre chacun acteur de ses apprentissages, qu’il partage avec d’autres". L'action des mouvements d'éducation populaire se positionne en complément de l'enseignement formel. C'est une éducation qui dit reconnaître à chacun la volonté et la capacité de progresser et de se développer, à tous les âges de la vie. Elle ne se limite pas à la diffusion de la culture académique, elle reconnaît aussi la culture dite populaire (culture ouvrière, des paysans, de la banlieue, etc.). Elle s'intéresse à l'art, aux sciences, aux techniques, aux sports, aux activités ludiques, à la philosophie, à la politique. Cette éducation est perçue comme l'occasion de développer les capacités de chacun à vivre ensemble, à confronter ses idées, à partager une vie de groupe, à s'exprimer en public, à écouter, etc. L'animation sociale et culturelle est un domaine d'investissement important d'éducation populaire. Au XXe siècle, avec l'institutionnalisation de certains mouvements et fédérations se réclamant de l'éducation populaire[réf. nécessaire], l'éducation populaire est également devenue un secteur marchand, où les acteurs historiques (des associations, mais aussi les sociétés idoines qu'elles ont créées) font désormais face à de nouvelles sociétés spécialisées.
Popular education is a concept grounded in notions of class, political struggle, and social transformation. The term is a translation from the Spanish educación popular or the Portuguese educação popular and rather than the English usage as when describing a 'popular television programme', popular here means 'of the people'. More specifically 'popular' refers to the 'popular classes', which include peasants, the unemployed, the working class and sometimes the lower middle class. The designation of 'popular' is meant most of all to exclude the upper class and upper middle class. Popular education is used to classify a wide array of educational endeavours and has been a strong tradition in Latin America since the end of the first half of the 20th century. These endeavors are either composed of or carried out in the interests of the popular classes. The diversity of projects and endeavors claiming or receiving the label of popular education makes the term difficult to precisely define. Generally, one can say that popular education is class-based in nature and rejects the notion of education as transmission or 'banking education'. It stresses a dialectic or dialogical model between educator and educand. This model is explored in great detail in the works of one of the foremost popular educators Paulo Freire. Though sharing many similarities with other forms of alternative education, popular education is a distinct form in its own right. In the words of Liam Kane:"What distinguishes popular education from 'adult', 'non-formal', 'distance', or 'permanent education', for example, is that in the context of social injustice, education can never be politically neutral: if it does not side with the poorest and marginalised sectors- the 'oppressed' – in an attempt to transform society, then it necessarily sides with the 'oppressors' in maintaining the existing structures of oppression, even if by default." +
