Integrating Gender in Policy Research and OutreachIFPRI-PIM
There is growing recognition of the importance of gender issues in policy and research. Gender equality is recognized as one of the Sustainable Development Goals, and is key to achieving most of the other goals as well. Yet it is often not clear what this means, in practice, or what kinds of knowledge and interventions are needed to contribute to these goals.
In this webinar, IFPRI researchers Ruth Meinzen-Dick and Elizabeth Bryan discuss key gender issues and entry points for policy research and outreach, focusing on processes for integrating gender into each stage of the research process, including priority setting, research design, methodologies, conduct of research, and communications for impact.

It argues that they are not gender and diversity transformative, do not focus on strengthening services for 'care' and engaging with men and boys on masculinities. Neither are budgets responsive to gender and diversity concerns. Finally, the paradigm of development is not consistent with gender and social equity

African countries have diversified both their exports and trade partners over the last decade, African agricultural trade still suffers from structural problems as well as exogenous shocks. Against this backdrop, the 2021 Africa Agriculture Trade Monitor (AATM) analyzes continental and regional trends in African agricultural trade flows and policies. The report finds that many African countries continue to enjoy the most success in global markets with cash crops and niche products. At the intra-African level, countries are becoming more interconnected in trade of key commodities, but there remain many potential but unexploited trade relationships. The report examines the livestock sector in detail, finding that despite its important role in Africa, the sector is concentrated in low value- added products that are informally traded. The report also examines trade integration in the Arab Maghreb Union (AMU), which remains limited due to factors including tariffs, nontariff measures, poor transport infrastructure, and weak institutions. Finally, the report discusses the implications of two major events affecting African trade in 2020 and 2021: the COVID-19 pandemic and the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
If you are looking for a pi coin investor. Then look no further because I have the right one he is a pi vendor (he buy and resell to whales in China). I met him on a crypto conference and ever since I and my friends have sold more than 10k pi coins to him And he bought all and still want more. I will drop his telegram handle below just send him a message.

when will pi network coin be available on crypto exchange.DOT TECH
There is no set date for when Pi coins will enter the market.
However, the developers are working hard to get them released as soon as possible.
Once they are available, users will be able to exchange other cryptocurrencies for Pi coins on designated exchanges.
But for now the only way to sell your pi coins is through verified pi vendor.
Here is the telegram contact of my personal pi vendor
@Pi_vendor_247
Even tho Pi network is not listed on any exchange yet.
Buying/Selling or investing in pi network coins is highly possible through the help of vendors. You can buy from vendors[ buy directly from the pi network miners and resell it]. I will leave the telegram contact of my personal vendor.
@Pi_vendor_247
how can i use my minded pi coins I need some funds.DOT TECH
If you are interested in selling your pi coins, i have a verified pi merchant, who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges looking forward to hold till mainnet launch.
Because the core team has announced that pi network will not be doing any pre-sale. The only way exchanges like huobi, bitmart and hotbit can get pi is by buying from miners.
Now a merchant stands in between these exchanges and the miners. As a link to make transactions smooth. Because right now in the enclosed mainnet you can't sell pi coins your self. You need the help of a merchant,
i will leave the telegram contact of my personal pi merchant below. 👇 I and my friends has traded more than 3000pi coins with him successfully.
@Pi_vendor_247
The secret way to sell pi coins effortlessly.DOT TECH
Well as we all know pi isn't launched yet. But you can still sell your pi coins effortlessly because some whales in China are interested in holding massive pi coins. And they are willing to pay good money for it. If you are interested in selling I will leave a contact for you. Just telegram this number below. I sold about 3000 pi coins to him and he paid me immediately.

how to sell pi coins at high rate quickly.DOT TECH
Where can I sell my pi coins at a high rate.
Pi is not launched yet on any exchange. But one can easily sell his or her pi coins to investors who want to hold pi till mainnet launch.
This means crypto whales want to hold pi. And you can get a good rate for selling pi to them. I will leave the telegram contact of my personal pi vendor below.
A vendor is someone who buys from a miner and resell it to a holder or crypto whale.

As of my last update, Pi is still in the testing phase and is not tradable on any exchanges.
However, Pi Network has announced plans to launch its Testnet and Mainnet in the future, which may include listing Pi on exchanges.
The current method for selling pi coins involves exchanging them with a pi vendor who purchases pi coins for investment reasons.
If you want to sell your pi coins, reach out to a pi vendor and sell them to anyone looking to sell pi coins from any country around the globe.
Below is the contact information for my personal pi vendor.

how can I sell pi coins after successfully completing KYCDOT TECH
Pi coins is not launched yet in any exchange 💱 this means it's not swappable, the current pi displaying on coin market cap is the iou version of pi. And you can learn all about that on my previous post.
RIGHT NOW THE ONLY WAY you can sell pi coins is through verified pi merchants. A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges and crypto whales. Looking forward to hold massive quantities of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale or ico offerings, the only way to get my coins is from buying from miners. So a merchant facilitates the transactions between the miners and these exchanges holding pi.
I and my friends has sold more than 6000 pi coins successfully with this method. I will be happy to share the contact of my personal pi merchant. The one i trade with, if you have your own merchant you can trade with them. For those who are new.
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram.
I wouldn't advise you selling all percentage of the pi coins. Leave at least a before so its a win win during open mainnet. Have a nice day pioneers ♥️

what is the future of Pi Network currency.DOT TECH
The future of the Pi cryptocurrency is uncertain, and its success will depend on several factors. Pi is a relatively new cryptocurrency that aims to be user-friendly and accessible to a wide audience. Here are a few key considerations for its future:
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram if u want to sell PI COINS.
1. Mainnet Launch: As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, Pi was still in the testnet phase. Its success will depend on a successful transition to a mainnet, where actual transactions can take place.
2. User Adoption: Pi's success will be closely tied to user adoption. The more users who join the network and actively participate, the stronger the ecosystem can become.
3. Utility and Use Cases: For a cryptocurrency to thrive, it must offer utility and practical use cases. The Pi team has talked about various applications, including peer-to-peer transactions, smart contracts, and more. The development and implementation of these features will be essential.
4. Regulatory Environment: The regulatory environment for cryptocurrencies is evolving globally. How Pi navigates and complies with regulations in various jurisdictions will significantly impact its future.
5. Technology Development: The Pi network must continue to develop and improve its technology, security, and scalability to compete with established cryptocurrencies.
6. Community Engagement: The Pi community plays a critical role in its future. Engaged users can help build trust and grow the network.
7. Monetization and Sustainability: The Pi team's monetization strategy, such as fees, partnerships, or other revenue sources, will affect its long-term sustainability.
It's essential to approach Pi or any new cryptocurrency with caution and conduct due diligence. Cryptocurrency investments involve risks, and potential rewards can be uncertain. The success and future of Pi will depend on the collective efforts of its team, community, and the broader cryptocurrency market dynamics. It's advisable to stay updated on Pi's development and follow any updates from the official Pi Network website or announcements from the team.
Towards Gender Equality: A critical assessment of evidence on social safety nets in Africa
1. TOWARDS GENDER EQUALITY:
A critical assessment of evidence on social safety
nets in Africa
Presented by:
Neha Kumar, Senior Research Fellow, IFPRI
Authors: Amber Peterman, Neha Kumar, Audrey Pereira & Daniel O. Gilligan
2. SOCIAL SAFETY NETS & GENDER: THE LINKAGES
• Social safety nets have rapidly expanded in Africa as a core
strategy for addressing poverty and vulnerability
• Poverty, vulnerability and well-being have inherent gender
dimensions, thus gender considerations have historically
motivated and driven certain design features of SSNs.
• These have mostly been instrumental (motivated by functional and
operational features)
• But more recently, intrinsic value of improving women’s wellbeing and
gender equality is starting to gain traction.
3. SOCIAL SAFETY NETS EXPANDING IN SSA
• Average country has 15 SSNs
• 10% of the population covered
Source: Beegle K, Coudouel, A & E Monsalve (Eds) (2018). Realizing the Full Potential of Social Safety Nets in Africa. World Bank.
4. “Comprehensive social protection
systems need to be gender-responsive
to a) ensure they do not further
exacerbate gender inequality and that
they b) promote gender equality.”
~Africa Ministerial Pre-Commission
on the Status of Women (CSW) 2019
5. THE EVIDENCE?
• Until recently, few evaluations of SSNs in
Africa examined implications for gender
equality and woman's empowerment
• However, recent reviews broadly agree
that SSNs have the potential to facilitate
gender equality and women’s
empowerment, but that these impacts
are not automatic and depend critically
on program design and context
• The evidence identifying design features
and the impact pathways is also
extremely thin
6. 01. Are social safety nets increasing women’s
wellbeing along key domains in Africa?
02. If so (if not), do we know what design
features matter?
03. What evidence commitments are needed
to meet aspirational goals?
KEY QUESTIONS
Beneficiary in Zambia’s Cash Transfer Scheme
7. • Strategy: Review of reviews, key websites,
backward & forward citations, google scholar
searches, emails to experts
• Inclusion criteria: Published & grey, Africa, 2000
onwards, experimental & quasi-experimental
• SSNs: Economic transfers (cash, in-kind,
vouchers, conditional, unconditional etc.), public
works (cash for work), school feeding
Outcomes (women aged 18+ years):
1. Food security
2. Economic outcomes
3. Empowerment
4. Psychological wellbeing
5. Gender-based violence
35 studies on
25 SSNs across
17 countries in Africa
REVIEW METHODOLOGY
8. WHAT DO WE FIND . . . ?
Women wait at a pay point in Ghana’s LEAP 1000 cash transfer program
9. Domain Studies/ Countries / Indicators Evidence
Food security
(dietary diversity, nutrition
and food security)
• 5 studies
• 5 countries
• 40 indicators
• 2 studies (40%) show positive impacts
• No mixed or negative impacts
• Very few studies report food security
disaggregated at the individual level
Economic
(LFP, savings, expenditure,
assets, credit, etc)
• 14 studies
• 11 countries
• 141 indicators
• 7 studies (50%) show positive impacts
• 3 studies (21%) show mixed or negative impacts
• Overrepresented by evidence on LFP
Empowerment
(decision making, self-efficacy,
agency)
• 16 studies
• 11 countries
• 159 indicators
• 5 studies (31%) show positive impacts
• 2 studies (13%) show negative impacts
• Dominated by results on decision making
Psychological wellbeing (QoL,
stress, mental health)
• 9 studies
• 6 countries
• 45 indicators
• 5 studies (56%) show positive impacts
• 1 study shows a negative impact
• Not an often-stated objective, but results
indicate potential
Gender-based violence
(controlling behaviors,
emotional, physical, sexual)
• 5 studies
• 5 countries
• 28 indicators
• 4 studies (80%) show positive impacts
• No mixed or negative impacts
• Overrepresented by IPV
10. KEY REFLECTIONS ON RESULTS
• We find little evidence of positive impact on women’s food security and nutrition
outcomes, despite large evidence on positive impacts on these outcomes at
household and child level
• Labor force participation is reported by large # of studies though it performs
worse than other economic indicators such as savings or expenditures –
indicative of potential supply-side as well as gender norm barriers around
working.
• Women’s empowerment reported by large # of studies but shows the weakest
impact—measures dominated by decision-making power.
• Psychological wellbeing, while not an often-stated objective for SSNs, the strong
positive impacts indicate the potential for linking the two.
• Most promising (and no negative) effects observed for gender-based violence.
11. GAPS IDENTIFIED
• Of 35 studies, only 6 able to unpack design features
• Gender of recipient, conditionalities, payment size/frequency/modality,
complementary programming
• Better methodologies are needed for gender analysis
• Disaggregate common indicators at the individual level
• Better measures of concepts such as women’s empowerment
• More gender analysis when the data are available (women vs men)
• Region-specific evidence and synthesis is key to ensure global
evidence does not obscure regional findings
• For example: Nature of poverty, gender norms and SSN design are
vastly different between Latin America and Africa
12. GAPS IDENTIFIED (CONT)
• Cost-effectiveness and value for money analysis is important
for sustainability of SSNs
• Important to understand the cost implications for making tradeoffs
between design and/or operational features, particularly with respect
to gender considerations.
• Incorporating a gender lens as we design SSNs for the future
• How can SSNs in fragile settings be gender sensitive?
• What are the gender implications of technological innovations –
mobile money, financial inclusion?
• SSNs to address migration, urbanization etc – all have gender
implications that need attention
13. CONCLUSIONS
• SSNs in Africa are improving women’s
wellbeing—some domains more
promising than others—evidence
strongly cash transfer dominant
• From existing quantitative evaluations,
we have little understanding of what
design features matter
• Large gaps in understanding simple
dynamics, including coverage (by sex), in
addition gaps in measurement of key
outcomes and true gender analysis – we
must be intentional to close these gaps!
By 2017, every country on the continent had at least one SSN, while the average country had 15, ranging from two (Republic of Congo and Gabon) to 56 (Burkina Faso) (Beegle et al. 2018). Further, national Governments have committed to institutionalizing SSNs, with 32 countries establishing national social protection strategies or policies by 2017 (Beegle et al. 2018). According to the World Bank, the average country on the continent spends 1.6 percent of their gross domestic product (GDP) on SSNs (representing 4.6% of total Government spending), and covers 10 percent of the population, with cash transfers accounting for nearly 41 percent (and growing) share of the spending (Beegle et al. 2018
NEGATIVE LFP RESULTS: It should be noted that although negative impacts were realized in several studies, in 2 cases, these impacts related exclusively to samples of either women older than 60 (Daidone et al. 2014, in Lesotho) or women working in hard manual labor (Malawi Cash Transfer Evaluation Team 2016a). Therefore, the only impact that can be interpreted as strictly adverse is that in Malawi, which found that the typical wage of young women who received a conditional cash transfer and were out of school at baseline had decreased two years postprogram—although the authors noted that the overall percentage of wage work in the sample was low (Baird, McIntosh, and Özler 2019).
NEGATIVE EMPOWERMENT RESULTS: (not written up in this version of the draft) – Ambler et al. in Malawi finds one adverse impact (daily purchases), but others positive; in Senegal two indicators of reduced women’s DM at midline (these impacts faded at endline) and the Egypt Takful program – adverse impacts found for women’s control over decision-making on children’s schooling and taking children for visits to doctors. However, qualitative evidence from the same program suggests some dimensions of improvement in women’s bargaining power or autonomy, derived primarily from the benefits of the program for the household budget (Eldidi et al. 2018 http://www.ifpri.org/publication/impact-evaluation-study-egypts-takaful-and-karama-cash-transfer-program-part-2
NEGATIVE PSYCHOLOGICAL WELLBEING RESULTS: The one study showing adverse impacts on stress among female youth in Tanzania, while not fully explained, reports equivalent (and larger) decrease in stress among male youth in the same sample (PSSN Youth Evaluation Team 2018).
