This is a presentation that considers the academic identity of nurse lecturers. It gives an overview of the literature that should be considered as I start out investigation this topic. The imagery of a dinner party is used to show that the journey in finding out what literature to use can be as messy as the tea party in Alice and Wonderland, with chaos all around but once the focus comes in a literature review, it can emulate a fancy dinner party with only the people you want at the party there.

The green transition is changing jobs, skills, and local economies. It poses new challenges but also opportunities, both of which will differ across places within countries. This report, Job Creation and Local Economic Development 2023: Bridging the Great Green Divide, provides novel evidence on those risks and opportunities across regions in 30 OECD countries. It examines the geography of green-task and polluting jobs and examines the impact of the green transition on gender and socioeconomic inequality by identifying the characteristics of workers in those jobs. Furthermore, the report tracks the progress regions have made in greening their labour market over the past decade. The report provides actionable policy recommendations that can help deliver a green and just transition. It looks at past and other ongoing labour market transitions and identifies local success drivers that can help communities prepare for and manage the impact of the green transition. Finally, it points out actions for ramping up and adapting local skills development systems to meet the demands of the green transition and equip their workforce with the right skills for the future.
Can we re-open the curtains on culture for a stronger COVID-19 recovery?OECD CFE
Cultural and creative sectors and industries are a significant source of jobs and income. They are a driver of innovation and creative skills, within cultural sectors and beyond. They also have significant social impacts, from supporting health and well-being, to promoting social inclusion and local social capital. As national and local governments reconsider growth models in the wake of COVID-19, cultural and creative sectors can be a tool for a resilient recovery if certain longer-term challenges in the sector are addressed. The report outlines international trends with new data, including at subnational scale. It addresses issues in cultural and creative sectors in terms of employment, business development, cultural participation and funding, both public and private. It provides analysis of how these sectors contribute to economic growth and inclusion, taking into account the impact of COVID-19 related crisis on jobs and firms. Finally, it offers recommendations on how to capitalise on the role of cultural and creative sectors in national and local recovery strategies.

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions
Mary AMITI (FED New York, United States)
Despite competition concerns over the increasing dominance of global corporations, many argue that productivity spillovers from multinationals to domestic firms justify pro-FDI policies. For the first time, we use firm-to-firm transaction data in a developed country to examine the impact of forming a new relationship with a multinational, and find a TFP increase of about 8% three or more years after the event. Sales to other buyers, trade and customer quality also increase. However, we also document that starting to supply other “superstar firms” such as those who heavily export or are very large also increases performance by similar amounts, even if the superstar is a non-multinational. Placebos on starting relationships with smaller firms and novel identification strategies relying solely on demand shocks to superstar firms support a causal interpretation. In addition to productivity spillovers, we document the transmission of “relationship capabilities” and “dating agency” effects as the increase in new buyers is particularly strong within the superstar firm’s existing network. These results suggest an important role for raising productivity through the supply chains of superstar firms regardless of their multinational status.

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level - A...OECD CFE
Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level
Alessandro ALASIA, Dennis HUYNH (Statistics Canada)
In Canada, there is limited analysis on industry locations at the neighbourhood level; location and co-location of industries have been assessed primarily at the regional scale which results in an information gap for businesses. Recent evidence suggests that businesses do not just choose a city for their location, they choose specific business districts within a metropolitan area. Recent improvements in the geolocation of business microdata allow to address the information gap. This work, undertaken as part of the Business Data Lab and in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, is a first attempt to map industry locations at the neighbourhood level in major metropolitan areas of Canada. Using establishment-level microdata from the Business Register, we apply spatial kernel density estimations to identify neighbourhoods with high employment/revenue density for selected industries (2-digit NAICS) and industry clusters (grouping of 6-digits NAICS). The geographic delineation of business districts within metropolitan areas is the first step in understanding the evolution of industry location and co-location over time, and assessing local business dynamics at the neighbourhood level. Ultimately, these business districts can be analyzed in combination with additional data sources (e.g., mobility and road traffic) to derive further economic insights.

Advancing and democratizing business data in Canada- Patrick Gill & Stephen TappOECD CFE
Democratizing data through innovative data governance and visualizations
Patrick GILL, Stephen TAPP (Chambers of Commerce, Canada)
Small organizations in Canada struggle with accessing and leveraging data on business conditions and trends. These organizations have expressed difficulty in knowing what is available, accessing it and converting this information into actionable insights. To empower small organizations with more business-related information and insights, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce has built a suite of free tools that merge and visualize traditional statistics with powerful high-frequency data sets (e.g. payments and mobility). This work is enabled by innovate data governance (e.g. a data trust) and a collaborative partnership with Statistics Canada. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is continuing work with Statistics Canada to release more local business information available through the agency’s Business Register (e.g. the mapping of local business districts), and is exploring how Generative AI can support small organizations’ navigation and understanding of the business information it has curated.

Horizon 2020 - research networks across borders - Rupert KawkaOECD CFE
Involvement of rural regions in European research networks
Rupert KAWKA, Torsten SCHUNDER (Federal Office for Building and regional Planning, Germany)
This study investigates the distribution of the European Union's Horizon 2020 funding programme on rural and urban regions between 2014 and 2020 and the resulting urban-rural links. Leveraging the Horizon 2020-database covering the 2014-20 programming period, which encompasses data on approximately 35,000 funded projects involving nearly 180,000 partners, the paper explores the participation of rural firms and organisations in the broader European research framework. By integrating the urban-rural classification of NUTS 3 regions, the research addresses key questions concerning the involvement of rural regions in Horizon 2020 projects, the structural differences in projects with and without rural participation, and the dynamics of urban-rural collaboration in research. The study further aims to identify potential clusters of rural innovation hubs across Europe and assess spatial disparities.

How can the social and solidarity economy help refugees along their journey?OECD CFE
Forcibly displaced people fleeing violent conflict and other forms of persecution find support from the social and solidarity economy (SSE) along their pathways, from their country of origin to asylum protection. The numbers are growing and new OECD work sheds light on how the specific values and characteristics of SSE entities provide high-quality responses to refugee needs and facilitate integration in host communities.
The SSE can support access to rights, empowerment, social and labour market inclusion of refugees. Join this webinar with the UNHCR, SINGA and NESsT Poland to discover how the SSE plays a role in the steps along the way of refugee’s journey.

Brian Harvey
Independent Social Researcher, Ireland
2. Brian Harvey and Kathy Walsh
OECD conference, UCD, Dublin
Workshop C, 1300 to 1500, 26th March 2013
brharvey@iol.ie kwresearch@eircom.net
3. Capture recent (esp. 2008+) trends in
employment, social inclusion in rural areas
Fill a gap in analysis of triangle of:
Rural development
Employment
Social inclusion
Look at examples outside Ireland
Make recommendations
Here, statistical analysis first; then issues,
findings, problems, solutions, recommendations
4. 1987 1994 2000

Rural 17.8% 18.1% 18.8% +5.6%
EU SILC, 2013
Rural poverty is higher
But urban poverty is increasing faster
7. We divided country into:
◦ Urban, 5,000+
◦ 3,000 to 5,000 (towns or peri-urban)
◦ Rural (<3,000) to refine the analysis
And these are the outcomes…
9. Less Same More
Deprivation Deprivation
5,000+ 21% 62% 17%
3,000 to 5,000 12% 62% 25%
<3,000 14% 66% 20%
Towns 3,000 – 5,000 are focus of problem
‘Towns are dying on their feet’
But we lack explanations (LA tenants? Closures
public services, shops, where jobs are?)
10. Need for more refined definition of rural
Irish rural policy is out of date
◦ Enhancing our future, 1999
◦ Rural initiatives (RSS, RTP) – but not same as a policy
Need for a statement of basis for rural policy
◦ E.g. Future of rural society (Commission, 1988)
◦ Equivalence principle
Absence of rural proofing
◦ Many key national policy documents have no rural sections or
only passing mention
◦ Look at Action plan for jobs, National Skills Strategy, Enterprise
Strategy, ministerial briefings 2011
◦ ‘Rural’ has slipped down policy hierarchy
11. Positively, convergence about what should be done
◦ Between Ireland and Europe
◦ Between NGOs and government
Main elements
◦ Investment in infrastructure, public services
◦ Green jobs (agrifood, farmer markets, social farming,
organic etc), low carbon economy (biofuels, wind, wave)
◦ Targeted assistance for SMEs, micro-enterprise, social
enterprise
◦ Upskilling right through to upper age range
◦ Rural, heritage, eco-tourism
12. Ireland lags behind Europe in key areas
◦ E.g. organics, biomass, nature protection, renewables
◦ Example inappropriately applied e.g. wind
◦ Missed opportunities e.g. heritage tourism, wave,
Groundwork type improvements
Activation does not match scale of problem
◦ Not adapted to rural situation
◦ Does not address transport, childcare, progression
◦ Need to re-direct resources from control
Role of the state
