Value of the Client's Life to break the vicious cycle of violenceGOHFoundation
This document discusses the need for increased resources to support rehabilitation for battered women and children in Taiwan. It provides statistics showing that over 69,000 people called domestic violence hotlines in 2012, yet the government only allocates about $13 million USD annually. The resources needed for rehabilitation are estimated to be $80 million USD annually. Without sufficient support, victims are more likely to experience repeated abuse. The document argues that increased investment in rehabilitation could help victims become independent and productive members of society, saving costs in the long run. It calls for the government and businesses to provide more employment opportunities and assistance for vulnerable women.

This document analyzes the economic cost of poverty in Ontario. It finds that poverty costs the Ontario government and households in the province $32-38 billion per year, or 5.5-6.6% of GDP. Poverty disproportionately impacts people with disabilities, children, Indigenous peoples, single parents and new immigrants. Reducing poverty through early intervention programs, childcare, skills training and credential recognition would generate economic returns and significantly reduce the social costs of poverty over time.

Poverty can be defined in several ways such as relative poverty, which compares incomes to the average, and absolute poverty, which looks at having enough for basic needs. Poverty is measured using indicators like the low income cut-off and depth and duration of living below this level. In Canada in 2009, 3.2 million people lived below the low income cut-off. Causes of poverty include income inequality, costs of living, types of available jobs, and certain groups like women and indigenous people facing higher risks. Experiencing poverty can negatively impact people's physical and mental health as well as social opportunities.
Gender Pay Gap Hackathon Briefing MaterialsJulie Graber
The document discusses the gender pay gap, which is the difference between median earnings of men and women. The gap has narrowed since 1963 but still exists at $0.77, and is worse for women of color. The pay gap impacts women's lifetime earnings and ability to support their families. Attempts to explain it away by choices or family responsibilities are unfounded, as the gap exists in all occupations from entry level to executive. Closing the gap could significantly boost the economy.

Economic Impact Of Silent Sports (3) (3) (3) (3)Scott Chapin
This document summarizes the economic impact of silent sports like biking, running, and cross-country skiing in Sawyer County, WI. It finds that trail development attracts tourists and second homeowners who spend money locally, increasing land values and generating over $1 million in annual economic impact. Data on cycling expenditures nationally and in Wisconsin show the large economic contributions of the sports. The analysis can be used to support future trail projects and grant applications by demonstrating increased tax revenue, jobs, and spending in the community.
The document summarizes key findings from research on Philadelphia's cultural sector and its economic impact. It finds that:
1) The cultural sector generates $1.3 billion in annual expenditures and $158 million in tax revenue, supporting 19,000 jobs and 24,000 volunteers.
2) Ten key findings from further research include that personal arts practice is a gateway to engagement, families play a key role, and marketing must be multi-channel.
3) There are also five next steps proposed, including continuing research, developing new funding resources, publicizing findings, and integrating arts into civic planning.
Colorado faces an unprecedented budget challenge as costs exceed available revenues. Policymakers must determine how to maintain vital public services while reducing or eliminating non-essential ones, and encourage voters to address these issues. Public attitudes show mixed messages - taxes are not a top concern but trust in government is low. While most agree services are underfunded, voters reject tax increases. Fiscal leadership requires articulating shared goals and priorities, and using resources to achieve them while considering long-term implications. It means more than one-time fixes - it requires generating new revenues, reducing future costs, and building understanding.
The document compares the advantages and disadvantages of public and private sectors. The advantages of the public sector include increased employment, government earnings, rural development, national income growth, social order, and infrastructure development. However, the public sector also faces disadvantages such as political interference, inefficient management, high corruption, ignoring consumer interests, and slow decision-making. The private sector advantages are employment generation, helping development, faster decisions, and less political interference, but it has disadvantages like smaller resources, less emphasis on social welfare, possible conflicts among owners, and lack of public confidence.
This document discusses different approaches to modeling the impacts of agricultural productivity growth and income distribution changes on poverty and inequality. It presents a hybrid approach that uses a global CGE model linked to detailed country models. The country models have representative households linked to fitted income distributions to estimate poverty impacts. This allows capturing both between-country and within-country sources of inequality. It also avoids having to directly age survey data over long-term time horizons.
Spider Internship Fund Summer Fellowship LSanti Laurina Santi
This document discusses a memorandum in support of the Women's Equality Agenda proposed by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. The Human Services Council (HSC) supports this agenda as it aims to reduce discrimination against women and help prevent women from falling into poverty.

The HSC believes passing this agenda could help improve economic opportunities and stability for many women throughout New York.
Micro Economics Chapter 20 , The Distribution of Income by (Nouman Khilji)Noman Khilji
This chapter discusses income inequality and policies to reduce poverty. It finds that wealth and income are unequally distributed around the world. Various measures are used to quantify inequality like the Lorenz curve and Gini coefficient. However, measuring inequality is challenging due to issues like transitory versus permanent income. Governments aim to redistribute income through policies like minimum wages, social security programs, negative income taxes, and in-kind transfers to improve living standards. The goal is to help the poor escape poverty through work incentives and anti-poverty programs.
This document is a study analyzing the effects of tied foreign aid on corruption levels in recipient countries. It presents a case study comparing levels of tied aid and corruption in Egypt (receiving aid from the US) and the Philippines (receiving aid from Japan) from 1995 to 2010. The study finds that Egypt, which received a higher percentage of tied aid on average (68%), saw a smaller average improvement in its corruption level (-0.34%) than the Philippines (aid was less tied), which improved more (-6%). However, the reasons for Egypt still experiencing some improvement despite high tying of aid requires more exploration.

Ethnic groups have their own societal and philanthropic objectives and they are not always comparable to those of our traditional donors. Philanthropy means more than giving money. African-Americans, Asian-Americans and Hispanic-Heritage-Americans are ready to take their place as major contributors in society, but many organizations do not yet know how to effectively engage their interest. By understanding giving traditions among these emergent charitable groups you will be able to promote the most appropriate giving vehicles, know how to assess and revise your engagement strategies to welcome non-traditional donors into your donor ranks and how to use the right recognition vehicles that will empower these up-and-coming philanthropists.
