Post the financial crisis of 2008 governments around the world have been searching for means to restore equilibrium and economic growth. Yet for all this it seems extraordinary that more attention has not been paid to Gender Economics and the vital role that it can play in a more holistic approach to development and to harnessing the talents and abilities of all.

The Inclusive Growth and Development Report 2015 (September 2015)
Amid increasing concerns about rising income inequality and its negative economic and social impact, the World Economic Forum, the international institution for public-private cooperation, today publishes a new contribution to the discussion. Around the world, no bigger policy challenge preoccupies political leaders than expanding social participation in the process and benefits of economic growth. Read More
Nationalizations
Nationalization is the process of taking private industry or assets into public ownership for the benefit of the public rather than individuals. It allows governments to expand their economic resources and power, but it also reduces competition and can scare away industries. When nationalization occurs, businesses are brought under government control and run as government organizations, which tends to reduce revenue, under-invest in businesses, and lower growth rates. Nationalization is sometimes justified when private companies in important industries like banking, transportation, energy, and natural resources are in trouble, in order to prevent economic collapse.
Inclusive Growth Index Infographic
The document discusses inclusive growth and how emerging markets can achieve it. Inclusive growth means providing more people with income and job opportunities so the benefits of economic growth are broadly shared. It can create sustained poverty reduction and a growing middle class. Emerging markets are encouraged to promote access to economic opportunities, education, health, gender equality, financial inclusion, basic utilities, better governance, and employment-intensive investment to ignite inclusive growth and set the course for a more sustainable future. The MasterCard Center for Inclusive Growth Index evaluates 60 emerging markets across 15 indicators related to inclusive growth and ranks the top 10 performers.
Empowering Local Governance for Development
This document discusses empowering local governance for development. It defines governance and local government, noting the exercise of political, economic, and administrative authority. Good local governance involves decentralization, participation, empowerment, and democracy. Challenges for local governments include awareness of globalization, infrastructure development, and poverty alleviation. Strategic steps are identified, like strengthening institutions and management, transparency, and public service. The central government plays a role in oversight, fiscal transfers, and reducing disparities. Paradigm shifts and globalization trends must be anticipated by local governments to increase competitiveness and people's welfare.
Globalization and Cyclicality
Globalization has led to increased trade and partnerships around the world through organizations like NAFTA and the EU. It has created an interdependent global economy. While business cycles of expansion and contraction still exist within individual economies, globalization has both increased and decreased the strength of these cycles. The 2008 financial crisis did not result in a depression like the 1930s, due in part to global fiscal stimulus and countries like China with large foreign reserves helping to restore economic confidence worldwide. Globalization allows the world to come together in times of crisis.
Turning overpopulation into human power
This document discusses overpopulation and the population of the world in the future. It argues that population is a resource because it allows for more labor specialization and consumers, fueling economic growth. Population growth is decreasing but overall numbers are rising. Factors behind population growth include innovation, private sector investment and jobs, government expenditure, and women's education. While rising population can increase GDP, there are also limitations like lack of quality education and resource mismanagement. Overall population may become Bangladesh's "biggest power" if development continues and poverty decreases.

Financing for development final project
This presentation provides an introduction to sustainable development goals (SDGs) and how Jamaica can align its national development plan with the SDGs. It defines development, outlines the 17 SDGs which succeeded the Millennium Development Goals, and explains how the SDGs provide direction, benchmarks, and a transformational framework for development. It also discusses how Jamaica's Vision 2030 national development plan aligns with achieving the SDGs through categorizing existing goals and identifying any gaps to address by 2030. Partnerships between public and private sectors are important for financing development and achieving the SDGs.
Inclusive Growth and Development
Inclusive development considers whether development progress is sufficiently widespread for the majority of a population to benefit
The World Bank has a particular focus on the economic capabilities, freedoms and resilience of the bottom 40 per cent of the World’s population and the relatively poor in individual countries.
Per capita incomes can rise but simultaneously there can also be an increase in the scale of relative poverty
The inter-generational nature of development progress also needs to be considered – i.e. creating an environment fit for future generations.
One of the defining debates in development economics is the extent to which state intervention enables inclusive growth or whether a dynamic private sector offers greater potential for lifting development progress.
EADI Conference 2014 - The Broker panel session - Presentation Sara Murawski
This document discusses inequality and its importance to the post-2015 development agenda. It notes that international institutions like the OECD and IMF have changed their views to acknowledge that economic growth does not automatically reduce inequality and that greater inequality does not foster social mobility. The document also discusses how inequality is a rising topic in academic literature and the media. It examines data showing rising global inequality and the fragility of the global middle class. While some growth can help reduce poverty in the short term, unequal growth can be detrimental and inequality itself hinders poverty reduction and economic growth over the long term. The post-2015 agenda needs to explicitly address inequality and promote more inclusive growth that takes into account the various drivers of rising inequality.
Inclusive Growth in Asia: Trends and Issues
IED's Hyun Son was invited to deliver a lecture on inclusive growth at the Stephen Zuelling Graduate School of the Asian Institute of Management. Her lecture dealt with issues on measurement and operationalization of inclusive growth for Asia and the Pacific. Dean moderated the lecture, which was attended by around 50 participants
Globalization and
Globalization refers to the increasing interconnectedness between societies from around the world through trade, cultural exchange, and technological advancements. Economic globalization in particular involves the increasing movement of goods, services, capital, and information across borders.
While globalization provides benefits like increased economic growth and access to new markets and technologies, it also poses risks to developing countries. Local industries may struggle to compete with multinational corporations, and workers could face unfair conditions. Overall, globalization makes national economies more vulnerable to external economic shocks.
Dimensions of Inclusive Development: Growth, Gender, Poverty and the Environment
This document discusses dimensions of inclusive and sustainable development. It notes that over 1 billion people live in extreme poverty and growth has not been equitable. For development to be sustainable, policies must address the interdependence between growth, gender, poverty and the environment. The articles argue for a strong representative state, civil society and private sector working together. Flexible, long term policies are needed that can adjust to new information and respect local contexts. Achieving social sustainability requires focusing on inclusion, participation, and addressing structural causes of marginalization.
The Millennium Development Goals Report 2009
1) The report assesses progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals and finds that the global economic crisis threatens to slow or reverse gains made.
2) Major advances against extreme poverty from 1990-2005 are likely stalled, and 55-90 million more people will live in extreme poverty in 2009 than anticipated due to the crisis.
3) Progress against hunger, which had improved since the 1990s, was also reversed in 2008 due to higher food prices, and the number of undernourished people is rising again.
India is yet to reach in the league of developed nations
Why is India still a developing nations and what are the reasons we are behind are aspects being covered in this ppt.
African Youth Unemployment
Around one-third of African Youth are unemployed and another one-third are vulnerably employed, mostly in the informal sector.
More than 400 million Africans are between the ages of 15 to 35 years.
Ahnaf's elp (mdg)
The main goals of the MDGs are to eliminate discrimination against women, promote gender equality in education and employment, and ensure equal access to education for women by 2015. They hope to achieve this by eliminating gender disparity in primary and secondary education by 2005, and providing equal education levels for both genders at all levels by 2015. The UN chose to focus on this goal because promoting gender equality and women's rights allows women to fully participate in society on equal terms as men, which supports global partnership and unity. Some examples of progress made include narrowing gender gaps in education access, more women gaining political power as seen in Kyrgyzstan setting a gender quota for parliament, and providing secondary school stipends for girls in Bangladesh.
World Bank Gender Action Plan Newsletter Spring 2009
The document summarizes the launch of the Private Sector Leaders Forum at the 2009 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. It was launched by the World Bank to promote gender equality and women's economic empowerment. The forum brings together influential private sector leaders committed to creating economic opportunities for women in areas like business, philanthropy, and diversity. The leaders will work with the World Bank to share best practices and research to support increasing women's opportunities in the private sector.
Class 10 economics
This document contains an economics lesson on sectors of the Indian economy. It includes multiple choice questions (MCQ), short answer questions, and long answer questions.
The MCQ questions cover topics like the sectors that have seen the most production growth, what GDP measures, how sectors are classified, and others.
The short answer questions define and compare the public and private sectors, explain why employment remains high in the primary sector despite its lower GDP contribution, and why only final goods and services are used to calculate national income.
The long answer questions explain why the tertiary sector is becoming more important in India, and compare the differences in employment conditions between the organized and unorganized sectors.
In general, the
FUTURE OF INDIA 2050
The document discusses several potential issues facing India by 2050, including:
1) India's population is projected to reach 1.64 billion by 2050, placing stress on infrastructure and resources due to overpopulation.
2) Rapid technological changes such as automation could threaten India's growth by resulting in widespread job losses and unemployment among millions of youth.
3) Environmental crises like rising sea levels, pollution, and climate change impacts are expected to worsen, with several major coastal cities potentially becoming submerged by 2050.
18 Obstacles To Development
The document discusses several key obstacles to development including:
1) Poor governance in countries can hinder development through issues like corruption, bureaucracy, and lack of accountability. Zimbabwe is provided as an example.
2) Lack of access to capital makes it difficult for businesses in developing countries to grow without means to invest and expand.
3) High disease burdens reduce productivity by making populations too sick to work.
4) Natural hazards like droughts and floods can damage economies and set back development.
5) Protectionism and unfair trade practices in developed countries present obstacles to exports from developing nations.
PROJECT REDROSE
AIESEC is an international organization that facilitates internships and leadership development for students. It operates social projects in Mumbai focused on issues like child education, environmental awareness, and women's empowerment. The Red Rose project aims to educate 700 women about their rights and safety through workshops, counseling, and awareness campaigns delivered by 17 international interns over 4 weeks. Prominent leaders have endorsed AIESEC for encouraging global cooperation and giving youth opportunities to develop international skills.
Rural industrialization
This document discusses the need for rural industrialization and decentralized manufacturing as the future of sustainable technology. It argues that centralized, capital intensive technologies have led to skewed economic growth and increasing inequity. Decentralized manufacturing, especially of daily goods in small rural industries, could generate more equitable growth by providing local employment. The IITD-KVIC project aimed to strengthen rural industries through science and technology interventions. Some successes included adapting finishing technologies to improve khadi quality, developing quality control standards, and improving products like soap, leather and pottery through chemical engineering inputs. The project helped set up the Mahatma Gandhi Institute for Rural Industrialization to continue developing appropriate rural technologies.
Econoct30
Thailand and Indonesia achieved different rates of economic growth since the 1960s due to differences in policies and institutions. [1] Thailand prioritized high levels of domestic saving, human capital development, macroeconomic stability, and limiting price distortions to support rapid growth. [2] Indonesia lagged behind Thailand's growth for nearly a decade due to lower education spending, weaker institutions, and corruption that hindered consistent economic policies and the adoption of technology. [3] However, since 2000, Indonesia's growth has outpaced Thailand's due to political instability in Thailand and Indonesia's large domestic demand supporting growth.
Governance and International Assistance for Building Human Development: A Rev...
As part of the poverty reduction strategies and human developments, various levels of
governments across the third world countries including Nigeria are now collaborating international
organisations through some organs of the United Nations (UN) that focuses on social programmes such as
United Nation Development Programme (UNDP).To determine the awareness and the extent at which these
programmes have impacted on the people in Nigeria particularly Ekiti state, the study adopted survey research
method where questionnaire were administered among the actors involved and the beneficiaries of the
programmes from Ekiti state. The study found that, the impact of UNDP programmes on the people were not
effectively felt because both the policies and projects of UNDP are not well articulated in the study area.
Economic growth & human development
The document discusses two chains of the relationship between economic growth and human development. Chain A is where economic growth leads to improved human development through increased public expenditures on health and education. Chain B is where improved human development, such as better education levels, leads to higher economic growth through increased productivity. Empirical evidence supports the existence of both chains. Countries' development can be classified into four categories based on the strength of this relationship: virtuous, vicious, human development-lopsided, or economic growth-lopsided.

The Publishing Scramble for Africa
Bribery and corruption is a truly global phenomenon and no organisation or institution can afford to be complacent. Whilst the continent of Africa has proved a fertile environment for some engaging in unethical activities, it is imperative that there is a far greater understanding of cause and affect. Equally it is essential that individuals appreciate that new legislation in regard to bribery and corruption often has a truly global reach.
Nautical lessons for leadership
Mark T. Jones, Director of the Centre for Innovative Leadership Navigation in London, discusses lessons for leadership from the nautical domain. He emphasizes that an effective leader must be disciplined, resilient, vigilant, and decisive. Additionally, a good leader thinks on their feet, keeps their head in crises, makes tough decisions without craving popularity, and has boundless energy. Nautical challenges like piracy, equipment failures, and outdated maps demonstrate the importance of anticipating risks, addressing knowledge deficits, and avoiding complacency for successful leadership.

Remittances - the unsung investment factor?
Remittances have become a pivotal feature of many economies. Where once such monies went to pay for basics such as food and elementary schooling, there would appear to be a growing body of evidence to suggest that remittances are beginning to provide essential seed funding for entrepreneurial activity.

Where is discernment in all this?
This keynote address discusses the importance of discernment for institutional leaders. It argues that discernment, defined as the ability to judge well, allows leaders to look beyond surface level measures like price and see deeper values. However, discernment cannot be taught but must be developed over time. The address warns that institutions can become "hermetically sealed" if they fail to encourage discernment by stifling dissent, overlooking certain personnel, and not critically examining their own language, imagery, and approach. It concludes that discernment is key to empowering leaders and liberating institutions from prevailing orthodoxies.

Luego invita a sus amigas y vecinas mujeres a celebrar su hallazgo, ya que recuperó el dinero que le permitiría sobrevivir otro día. El mensaje es que así como la mujer se alegra por recuperar su moneda, hay gozo en el cielo cuando un pecador se arrepiente y se salva.

Improving poverty alleviation programmes in nigeria through small and medium ...
This document summarizes a paper that discusses poverty in Nigeria and proposes improving poverty alleviation programs through small and medium scale agricultural development projects. Some key points:
- Nigeria has high unemployment and poverty rates, with over 70% of the population living below the poverty line. The government has implemented various poverty programs but they have had little success in reducing unemployment or poverty.
- The paper argues that agricultural development projects could help generate more employment and reduce poverty. Nigeria has abundant natural resources and arable land but much of its agricultural potential remains untapped.
- Small and medium agricultural projects could help address issues like low productivity, limited access to inputs and credit for farmers, and inadequate infrastructure and extension services currently hampering
ROLE OF ICT IN ACHIEVING COMPLETE GENDER EQUALITY IN INDIA
ROLE OF ICT IN ACHIEVING COMPLETE GENDER EQUALITY IN INDIAInternational Journal of Technical Research & Application
The 21st century has brought with itself a new
revolution in the global realm – the information society, which
has changed the global macroeconomic landscape. The
importance of technology cannot be denied as it has changed the
way we live, the way we work, the way we make decisions and the
way we correspond with each other. Advancements in
Information Communication Technologies not only have the
capability to improve the technological arena, but they also have
the potential to bring about social and economic improvements.
Across the globe, countries have recognized Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) as an effective tool in
catalyzing the economic activity in efficient governance, and in
developing human resources. The role of ICT’s to promote
gender equality and parity in education can be achieved by
targeting their efforts not only towards education itself, but also
towards society’s cultural and institutional framework. For
example, in many countries, parents do not expect their
daughters to have careers outside the home. Consequently, girlchildren
are forced to leave school after completing only a basic
or elementary education. In addition, if the benefits of schooling
for boys far outweigh those for girls, economically disadvantaged
parents will typically choose to send only the boys to school. The
differences in the health, education and standards of behavior
between the men and women of India, all contribute to the
impairment of women’s ability to improve their economic
situation. The continued perception that women are not of value
hinders women’s ability to fully participate in the economy.
Majority of women in India are doing tasks that are not
recognized by Indian society as meaningful and work much
longer hours than men, but much of their work is nurturing, and
therefore not recognized as important. Even when women are
contributing in family income, culturally their work is thought of
as connected to their position as nurturer and therefore is not
recognized as productive. The inequalities that exist among
region, social class and gender prevent the growth of the Indian
economy from improving the lives of many Indian people.
Nowhere is inequality more evident than in the lives of Indian
women, and likewise, there is no sector more affected by the lack
of improvement in social issues. Hence, the use of ICTs to
improve gender equality in education and employment may
initiate a continuous cycle of positive reinforcing feedback effects
between gender equality in employment and economic
development, leading to further improvements in bothCommission on the Status of Women Fifty-sixth session 27 February-9 March 2012
Introduction 1. In its resolution 54/4, the Commission on the Status of Women proposed some measures that Member States and other stakeholders could take to promote women’s economic empowerment and requested that the Secretary-General report to the Commission at its fifty-sixth session on the implementation of the resolution. The present report incorporates contributions by Member States1 and organizations of the United Nations system,2 drawing on evidence found in the publications of United Nations entities and other sources, and concludes with recommendations for future action for the consideration of the Commission. 2. Women’s economic empowerment, both as a process and as a functioning reality, enables women to enjoy economic rights and make decisions that impact their own lives and influence others. It opens up opportunities for women to achieve other dimensions of empowerment, including political and social empowerment. In addition to its intrinsic value, women’s economic empowerment can contribute to the achievement of other key development goals.3 Achieving women’s economic empowerment requires a comprehensive and coherent approach that pulls together institutions, policy instruments and monitoring frameworks, including the influence and leadership of women and groups working for their rights. It entails valuing, measuring and respecting women’s work. 3. The report also examines the macroeconomic policy environment and analyses the situation of women as workers, entrepreneurs and decision makers, including their contribution to the economy and human well-being. It makes the case that women’s economic empowerment is essential if societies worldwide are to exit the current global economic downturn and deliver balanced and sustainable global growth, with equality, justice and dignity for women and men. It focuses on areas where further action is needed to accelerate women’s economic empowerment, including macroeconomic policy, trade, work and employment, entrepreneurship and economic decision-making. While access to and control over assets underpins women’s economic empowerment, these matters are not considered in the present report in order to avoid duplication with other reports on the priority theme. 4. The two reports of the Secretary-General for the fifty-sixth session of the Commission on the priority theme (E/CN.6/2012/3 and E/CN.6/2012/4) focus on economic empowerment of rural women and advancing rural women’s __________________ 1 Contributions were received from the Governments of Austria, Colombia, Djibouti, Finland, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Poland, Senegal, South Africa, the Sudan, Sweden, Syrian Arab Republic, Turkey, and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. 2 Contributions were received from the Economic Commission for Europe, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean, the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United N

Chapter one (dissertation)
This chapter provides background information and outlines the objectives and scope of the study. It discusses youth unemployment as a problem in Africa and Uganda specifically. The study aims to examine youth unemployment levels and causes in Kampala, Uganda, identify types of unemployment, and explore policy options. It justifies the need for the research and defines key concepts. A conceptual framework is presented showing factors like lack of skills, high population growth, limited capital, and corruption can lead to unemployment and high poverty.
Presentation UCW research.ppt
This document provides a summary of a research study conducted in Rwanda to assess the effect of unpaid care work (UCW) on women's economic participation. The study found that UCW disproportionately burdens women with household duties, limiting their time for paid work, education, and other activities. National policies have goals of gender equality but do not adequately address UCW. The study estimated women spend on average 4 hours per day on UCW compared to 1 hour for men. It proposes a framework to help countries recognize, reduce, redistribute, reward, and represent UCW in order to promote gender equality.
Global Economy.ppt
The document discusses international economics and globalization. It defines international economics as the study of economies on a global scale and globalization as increased international trade and cultural exchange. It provides reasons why countries engage in international trade, including differences between countries and economies of scale in production. It also discusses trade barriers such as tariffs and quotas that can limit trade and cause trade wars by increasing prices and restricting supply.
WB GENDER DIMENSIONS OF EXTRACTIVE INDUSTRIES august 2009
This document discusses the importance of understanding how men and women are differently impacted by extractive industries (EI). It notes that ensuring women have equal access to EI benefits is important from a human rights perspective. It also discusses how investing in women is key for community development, as women often play important roles in families and communities by ensuring health, nutrition, education, and security. When women have more access to resources like education, employment, income, and financial opportunities, studies show positive impacts such as reduced infant mortality, increased child survival rates, and greater investments in family health and education. Therefore, addressing gender dimensions of EI can help maximize development benefits at both the individual and community levels.
Oecd forum 2012_report
The document summarizes the key discussions and events from the 2012 OECD Forum conference held in Paris from May 22-23. On the first day, OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría welcomed attendees and focused on the OECD's advice for governments to pursue structural reforms, social policies, and green growth. A session discussed measuring inequality and its impact. The updated OECD Better Life Index was launched, measuring well-being beyond GDP. A lunch session promoted empowering women and gender equality. The second day focused on challenges like inequality, climate change, and debt, as well as developing jobs, growth, and trust in the MENA region. Turkey's Deputy Prime Minister spoke about the need for consensus on global economic policies.
Guidence of business environment
The document discusses the challenges of balancing regulatory burden on micro- and small enterprises (MSEs) with protecting workers in MSEs. It notes that MSEs employ a major share of workers globally but often operate informally without legal protections. Some key points:
1) Many countries exempt MSEs from certain labor laws or have parallel legal regimes with lower standards to reduce regulatory costs, but this leaves workers unprotected and can discourage business growth.
2) Low compliance with labor laws among MSEs is also due to lack of enforcement, legal exemptions, and widespread informality. Representation of MSE interests is also often insufficient.
3) Reforms to improve the business environment can boost job creation, but their

This document discusses constraints that rural women face in utilizing microfinance institutions in Ethiopia. It finds that the major constraints identified through interviews and focus groups are: 1) insufficient loan amounts that are not enough to sustain a business, 2) lack of ongoing training and follow up support from microfinance institutions after the initial loan, and 3) unavailability of nearby markets, high costs of inputs, and animal diseases that hamper women's ability to run livestock businesses and make a profit. The study concludes microfinance institutions need to provide larger and more sufficient loans, as well as continued training and support, to better empower women economically.
The Informal Economy: A primer for development professionals on the importanc...
On first hearing the phrase ‘informal economy’ (IE), most people think of illegal activities, such as trading in drugs or prostitution, paying bribes or avoiding taxes. As such, it is often regarded as something that should be eliminated in pursuit of a formal economy (FE). Without much analysis, one can even assume that the IE is a transitional route to formality as economies grow and regulation becomes stronger.
Yet, reality seems to confound these expectations, at least in the short- to medium-term. The IE currently accounts for over half of global employment and as much as 90 per cent of employment in some of the poorer developing countries. Due to its flexible nature, the IE is in some ways better able to adapt to difficulties such as the current global recession, providing some measure of support to those most in need.
Since it provides employment and income for the most impoverished particularly women it is a key route to achieving the millennium development goals (MDGs) of eradicating extreme poverty and hunger, promoting gender equality and empowering women. As such, some governments are beginning to become more aware of the vital role the IE plays, especially for the most vulnerable. Because of this awareness, some now look to policies that support the IE to © Muyeye Chambwera become more productive, provide a better voice in governance and a better quality of life for those dependent on it.
Failure to fully grasp the nature, dynamics and drivers of the IE presents a dilemma for the sustainable development agenda. Some of the questions may include:
(1) Does development entail eliminating the IE or working with it?
(2) Should it be suppressed or promoted, given its predominance? While this paper does not seek to answer these questions directly, it highlights key features and realities of the IE, providing a context for planning and pursuing sustainable development initiatives.
Indeed the delivery and outcomes of ideals (such as the MDGs, poverty reduction, climate change adaptation, low carbon development, the green The informal economy currently accounts for over half of global employment and as much as 90 per cent of employment in some of the poorer developing countries. economy, housing for all and agricultural development) depend on the assumptions society makes today about the future economic scenarios which shape rural-urban dynamics, the use of natural resources, and the way in which product and labour markets operate, among other things.
The IE can hardly be measured directly. Even though some individual countries have attempted comprehensive studies, there is little global analysis. The most recent analysis, including World Bank studies, use International Labour Organization (ILO) estimates from 1994 to 2000 and Schneider’s estimates for 110 countries over the period 1999 to 2004, to provide a global cross-section of data.

ABSTRACT
The study examined the effect of educational qualifications on entrepreneurs and performance of small and medium scale enterprises in Mainland Local Government Area of Lagos State, Nigeria. In this study, relevant and extensive literatures were reviewed under sub-headings. The descriptive research survey was used in the assessment of the opinions of the selected respondents with the adoption of the questionnaire and the sampling technique. A total of 100 (One Hundred) respondents were selected and used as samples for this study, the respondents were made up of (50 males and 50 females). A total of four null hypotheses were generated and used in this study using both the percentage frequency counts and the t-test statistical tools at 0.05 level of significance. At the end of the data analyses, the following results were generated: hypothesis one found that there is a significant effect of educational qualifications and performance of entrepreneurs in small and medium enterprises in Lagos State Nigeria, hypothesis two showed that there is a significant gender difference in the management of small and medium scale enterprises due to educational qualifications of the entrepreneurs in Lagos State while hypothesis three indicated that the effective management of small and medium scale enterprises significantly depend on the educational qualifications of the entrepreneurs in Lagos State, Nigeria and finally, hypothesis four revealed that there is a significant gender difference in the successful management of small and medium scale enterprises in Lagos State, Nigeria
Fact sheet: Youth employment
The document discusses youth unemployment globally. It notes that in 2009, 81 million young people were unemployed, the highest ever recorded. Between 2007-2009, the youth unemployment rate increased from 11.9% to 13%, representing 7.8 million more young unemployed. Young women face greater challenges finding work, with the female youth unemployment rate at 13.2% compared to 12.9% for males. The economic crisis dramatically increased youth unemployment rates and exposed many young workers to poverty and insecure employment conditions. Creating more jobs for young people is important for stronger economies and societies.
Contribution of Financial Inclusion on the Economic Development of Nigeria 19...
Financial inclusion strategy was set up so that all people have access to banking and insurance services as well as financial literacy and capabilities that will help improve standard of living in the country. Therefore the study examined the contribution of financial inclusion on the economic development of Nigeria. Secondary data were collected from Central Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletin and UNDP Human Development Reports spanning from 1999 to 2020.The research work selected Nigeria as its sample and used the Error Correction Mechanism ECM to test the contribution of the explanatory variables Deposits from rural branches of commercial banks, Loans to rural branches of commercial banks, Number of Micro Finance Banks, Commercial Bank Loans to Small Scale Enterprise on the dependent variable Human Development Index .The findings from the study revealed that financial inclusion has not contributed significantly on the economic development of Nigeria for the period under review. The granger causality test also shows a unidirectional causality between financial inclusion and economic development of Nigeria. The results suggest that financial inclusion can help improve the standard of living of the country and reduce high unemployment rate in the country, if implemented effectively. The study therefore recommends that Central bank of Nigeria should approve the establishment of more micro finance banks in order to meet the financial needs of low income neighborhoods and rural dwellers. The Central bank of Nigeria should intensify efforts aimed at credit facilities to small and medium scale enterprises SMEs to boost financial inclusion in the economy by mandating banks to dedicate 10 of their net profit after tax to SMEs loans. Commercial banks should diversify their portfolios as this will help reduce various investment risks they face while extending financial service to the poor and rural dwellers in the country. There is need to improve the financial infrastructure in the country which will help banks in deposit mobilization especially the unbanked and rural dwellers in the country.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.Earn a passive income with prosocial investing
