Expectations for
Essential Services
1) The document discusses dynamic planning for counterinsurgency operations in Afghanistan and outlines several factors that must be considered.
2) These factors include increasing coalition funding to boost economic investment and development, restoring essential services, developing governance, perceptions of security, and the appropriate mix of military and civilian efforts.
3) The optimal approach is to balance these interrelated factors to influence populations away from supporting insurgents and towards supporting the host nation government over time.
This document discusses the need to integrate local governance and local development (LGLD) efforts. It identifies challenges with the current approach such as weak coordination and linkages between global, regional and country levels. The document recommends developing an LGLD framework based on sustainable human development concepts. It also recommends systematically sharing lessons learned and strengthening partnerships. The document presents conceptual frameworks and normative processes for integrated national LGLD support involving capacity development, planning, implementation and accountability across different levels and sectors.

The airline was facing increasing competition, rising fuel costs, and falling demand which had led to financial losses. To address this, the airline planned to cut unnecessary costs through consolidation, improve efficiency, focus on the profitable business travel market, and boost revenue through cargo and tourism while also finding other marginal business opportunities. The airline believed that through these changes and by working together, they could recover from their financial difficulties and once again become profitable.
Knowledge-Based Economic Development as a Unifying Vision in a Post-Awakening...Wesley Schwalje
This presentation is based on an article that won best academic paper at the 2012 Arabian Society for Human Resources Management Annual Conference. This presentation traces the evolution of knowledge-based economic development in the Arab World. In pursuing this objective, many countries in the region have made large state-driven human capital investments with the goals of job creation, economic integration, economic diversification, environmental sustainability, and social development. An assessment of the effectiveness of Arab investments in human capital shows marginal progress towards knowledge-based development over the last decade. A disconnect between the skills developed in Arab skills formation systems and those required by private sector employers relegates Arab businesses to contesting lower-skilled, non-knowledge intensive industries which has stalled knowledge-based development in the region.
Knowledge Based Economic Development As A Unifying Vision In A Post Awakening...Wesley Schwalje
The document discusses knowledge-based economic development (KBED) as a potential unifying vision for the post-Arab Spring region. It notes that while political instability can negatively impact economies, competitive elections may actually increase growth. KBED is seen as intertwined with strengthening human capital through education and employment programs. However, surveys find GCC countries experience significant skills gaps between the qualifications of their workforces and the needs of private sector employers. Addressing these gaps through education reform and improved training systems could support national economic development and regional cooperation.
This document discusses different ways that community development is understood and defined. It is described as planning services, empowering communities, and working towards social justice by neighborhood coordinators. The document outlines three principal uses of the term: facilitating community participation and empowerment, building community capacity and infrastructure, and promoting economic development. Direct service focuses on meeting individual needs rather than community empowerment or collaboration.

NSDC was created as part of the Indian government's coordinated efforts in the skills space. It has a public-private partnership structure with 51% stake held by industry and 49% by the government. NSDC aims to skill or upskill 150 million people by 2022 by fostering private sector participation.
NSDC achieves its mandate through three pillars - creating large training institutions, funding projects to reduce risk and provide patient capital, and enabling support systems for skills development.
NSDC funding considers proposals from organizations with scalable, sustainable models ensuring employability. Funding is typically up to 75% of project costs through debt or equity. A robust approval process targets turning around proposals in less than 3 months

The document discusses social impact bonds (SIBs) as a way to raise investment for preventative social services. A SIB is a contract between public commissioners and investors where the commissioner commits to pay for improved social outcomes that yield cost savings. Investors provide upfront capital for interventions, and receive a financial return based on the degree of improved outcomes. The document outlines the first SIB pilot in the UK focusing on reducing recidivism among short-term prisoners leaving Peterborough prison through social reintegration services.
The document discusses the role of government in creating systemic change to address social issues. It notes that demand for social services often outstrips available government funding. It also discusses how governments can connect different sectors and leverage their resources to help social innovators find flexible solutions. The document asks how governments can best partner with communities and the private sector to impact systems and drive systemic change through a spectrum of activities from mandating to endorsing. It seeks ideas on defining objectives, strategies and actions for the role of government.
The public sector deals with the production, ownership, sale, provision, delivery and allocation of goods and services by and for the government or its citizens. Prior to independence, there were only a few public sector enterprises in India such as railways, posts, telegraphs, and ordnance factories. The public sector was established to promote rapid economic development, generate resources for development, redistribute income and wealth, and prevent concentration of economic power. However, public sector enterprises have faced criticism for their failure to generate sustainable employment, serve the public interest, generate adequate surplus for development, and develop strong infrastructure.
Social Impact Bond Future Developments and TrendsSocialFinanceUK
The webinar discusses social finance, social impact bonds, and trends in the social sector. It covers:
1) An introduction to social finance and how it works with government, private sector, and voluntary organizations.
2) Using social impact bonds to fund social services by raising money from investors based on improved social outcomes.
3) Moving public sector commissioning towards outcomes-based models to overcome barriers like funding gaps and attribution of outcomes.
The document discusses factors that contributed to Israel emerging as an ICT powerhouse, including heavy investment in education, immigration of skilled workers, government investment in R&D, and programs to support startups. The government played a key role through targeted interventions while also maintaining a market-friendly approach. Heavy investment in education and encouragement of immigration increased the supply of human capital. The culture also emphasized risk-taking and dissent, which supported innovation. Government initiatives included funding for R&D, incentives for foreign investment, and incubator programs to help startups commercialize research.
