Last was an important conversation on improving #migrant #worker #welfare on the #VoxDev podcast with A. Nilesh Fernando. The #data from #SriLanka and the #Gulf presented here is instructive in identifying issues and creating policies to improve conditions, and casts a long shadow over the upcoming #worldcup https://podcasts.google.com/u/1/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hdWRpb2Jvb20uY29tL2NoYW5uZWxzLzQ5NzA3NzQucnNz/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvYm9vbS5jb20sMjAyMi0xMS0wMTovcG9zdHMvODE4NTcyOQ?sa=X&ved=0CA0QkfYCahcKEwiQ68neipP7AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAQ (9/9)

First was a great discussion on the #VoxDev #podcast on the impact of #workfare programs by Patrick Premand. This vitally important work examines #data from Côte d’Ivoire with big implications for policymakers https://podcasts.google.com/u/1/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hdWRpb2Jvb20uY29tL2NoYW5uZWxzLzQ5NzA3NzQucnNz/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvYm9vbS5jb20sMjAyMi0wNC0xOTovcG9zdHMvODA2ODk5Ng?sa=X&ved=0CA0QkfYCahcKEwiQ68neipP7AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAQ (2/9)

Last was an intriguing conversation on the tradeoff between #migration, #fertility, and #economic growth with Ping Wang on the #VoxDev #podcast. By looking at #China, Wang is able to tease apart some of these competing factors to give a more comprehensive picture for #governments to consider. https://podcasts.google.com/u/1/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hdWRpb2Jvb20uY29tL2NoYW5uZWxzLzQ5NzA3NzQucnNz/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvYm9vbS5jb20sMjAyMS0xMi0wNzovcG9zdHMvNzk5MjY0MQ?sa=X&ved=0CAUQkfYCahcKEwjwktnR65D7AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQQw (8/8)

Next was another interesting #VoxDev conversation with Mesay Gebresilasse on the economic impact of roads and direct #farming interventions to improve #productivity. When combined these effects become quite powerful and indicate how #infrastructure #investment and other initiatives have to be planned holistically. https://podcasts.google.com/u/1/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hdWRpb2Jvb20uY29tL2NoYW5uZWxzLzQ5NzA3NzQucnNz/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvYm9vbS5jb20sMjAyMi0wMi0yMzovcG9zdHMvODAzNjU0OA?sa=X&ved=0CAUQkfYCahcKEwiozM73to77AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAw (3/8)

First up was a fascinating discussion with Cian Ruane on the #VoxDev #podcast on the #performance impact of #hiring from suppliers and customers. tldr it's extremely positive for all concerned, and the fantastic #data from the #DominicanRepublic shows why. Highly recommend https://podcasts.google.com/u/1/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hdWRpb2Jvb20uY29tL2NoYW5uZWxzLzQ5NzA3NzQucnNz/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvYm9vbS5jb20sMjAyMi0wNC0yNzovcG9zdHMvODA3MzcwOA?sa=X&ved=0CAUQkfYCahcKEwiozM73to77AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAw (2/8)
