zones-led progress. Why are ports so critical? A well-organized
port can make the difference between locally or, in the case of
Djibouti, regionally produced products being viable for export,
or priced out of the market 1 . A well-run facility builds
self-reliance in the local executive management and economy, thus
drawing new industry and investment, and promoting tourism.
Furthermore, enhancements to port infrastructure frequently raise
forces to shore up the weaker links in regional supply chains,
such as below-standard roads and railways 2 .},

abstract = {The share of Uganda’s population that lives below the poverty
line has fluctuated over the last seven years, greatly influenced
by shocks that have tested the resilience of the people. About 30
percent of the country’s population was poor in 2019-20, which is
comparable to the poverty rate of 30.7 percent in 2012-13. The
pattern of fluctuating poverty rates is largely driven by the
experience of rural households. There was a surge in the poverty
rate between 2012-13 and 2016-17, linked to the drought in
2016-17, followed by improvement in 2019-20 prior to the pandemic
, when favorable weather conditions helped lift rural incomes.
The COVID-19 pandemic pushed both urban and rural residents into
poverty. Inequality, which reflects the extent to which different
population groups benefit from Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
growth, and affects the transmission of growth into poverty
reduction, remained largely unchanged over this period and may
even have worsened in urban areas. The rest of this overview
presents key findings of the report. The next section synthesizes
key facts about Uganda’s poverty reduction experience up to 2020.
These facts set the stage for the section that follows examining
reasons behind limited progress in poverty reduction. The final
section reviews the key policy points for action. The report’s
analysis is based on new analysis of available data sources as
well as published analytical reports such as the Systematic
Country Diagnostic Update (World Bank; International Finance
Corporation; Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency 2021), the
Country Economic Memorandum (World Bank 2022), and the previous

abstract = {Abstract Adequate sanitation is one of the most important
aspects of community well-being. It reduces the rates of
morbidity and severity of various diseases like diarrhea,
dysentery, and typhoid among others. A study about toward the
attainment of the recommended Humanitarian Sphere Standards on
sanitation in Bidibidi refugee camp, Yumbe District, was
initiated. A total of 210 households distributed in Bidibidi
refugee camp were randomly selected and one adult person
interviewed to assess the accessibility of different sanitation
facilities, and to explore the sanitation standards of the
sanitation facilities in relation to the recommended Humanitarian
Sphere Standards in the area. Pit latrines, hand washing
facilities, and solid waste disposal areas as reported by 81.4\%,
86.7\%, and 51.9\% of the respondents respectively, are the main
sanitation facilities accessed in the refugee camp. Despite their
accessibility, the standards of the pit latrines, hand washing,
and solid waste disposal facilities are below the recommended
standards, which might have contributed to the outbreak of
sanitation related diseases (χ 2 = 19.66, df = 1, P = 0.05) in
Bidibidi refugee camp. The respondents in the study area were
aware that the presence of the sanitation-related diseases was
because of the low-level sanitation practices in place (χ 2 =
4.54, df = 1, P = 0.05). The inaccessibility to some sanitation
facilities by some respondents was found to be related to their
low level of education (χ 2 = 130.37, df = 1, P = 0.05). This
implies that the sanitation facilities in Bidibidi refugee camp
need to be redesigned and improved especially the pit latrines
and the solid waste disposal facilities in order to meet the
minimum Humanitarian Sphere Standards. Also, there should be more
provision of taps with flowing water in the camp for effective
washing practices to minimize the spread of sanitation-related
diseases.},

negative implication to the nation as well as the region in the

besides the economic and security benefits Djibouti gains, in the

Usually, scholars identify tangible resources like oil, diamonds

examines how little-studied Djibouti's non-tangible resources~–~
geo-strategic location and aid-inspiring poverty~–~have produced
‘curse’ effects; with an economy dominated by US and French
military spending (and concomitant aid) and rents on trade
passing to and from Ethiopia, tiny Djibouti suffers from this
curse. It draws four conclusions. First, resource curse effects
can derive from non-traditional sources. Second, leaders' policy
decisions matter at least as much as the presence or absence of
resources. Third, advanced countries' spending patterns in their
less-developed allies often produce unintended consequences.
Finally, even tiny countries can provide scholars and policy
makers with new insights.},

other hand, has a significant influence on the perceived trends
of inequality. We consider different combinations of dimensions
(two, three and four dimensions) and a wide variety of values of

understanding of the extent of inequality in Vietnam. Our results
suggest that the level of multidimensional inequality in Vietnam
has decreased, albeit that this is not the case for all
combinations of the parameter values. Our study shows that
looking at multidimensional rather than one-dimensional
inequality leads to a richer understanding of the evolution of
inequality, and indicates that it is important to be aware of the
influence of value judgments on the assessment of inequality.},

abstract = {Abstract Introduction Many refugees face challenges accessing
water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services. However, there is
limited literature on WASH access for refugee populations,
including for menstrual health services. Unmet WASH access needs
may therefore be hidden, amplifying morbidity and mortality risks
for already vulnerable refugee populations. The aim of this study
was therefore to quantitatively analyze WASH access among refugee
camps, with a focus on households with women of reproductive age.
Methods This was a cross-sectional study that utilized the
Standardized WASH Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) Survey.
A total of 5632 household questionnaires were completed by the
United Nations Refugee Agency in 2019 in 21 refugee camps and
settlements in Bangladesh, Kenya, South Sudan, Uganda, and
Zimbabwe. WASH access (14 items) and social and geographic
stratifiers were analyzed at the household-level including the
refugee camp, country of the settlement, having women of
reproductive age, members with disability/elderly status, and
household size. We calculated frequencies, odds ratios, and
performed bivariate and multivariate analyses to measure
inequalities. We developed a Female WASH Access Index to
characterize WASH access for households with women of
reproductive age. Results Most refugee households had high levels
of access to improved water (95\%), low levels of access to waste
disposal facility (64\%) and sanitation privacy (63\%), and very
low access to basic sanitation (30\%) and hand hygiene facility
(24\%). 76\% of households with women of reproductive age had
access to menstrual health materials. WASH access indicators and
the Female WASH Access Index showed large inequalities across
social and geographic stratifiers. Households with disabled or
elderly members, and fewer members had poorer WASH access.
Households with women of reproductive age had lower access to
basic sanitation. Conclusions Large inequalities in WASH access
indicators were identified between refugee sites and across
countries, in all metrics. We found high levels of access to
improved water across most of the refugee camps and settlements
studied. Access to basic hygiene and sanitation, sanitation
privacy, waste disposal, and menstrual health materials, could be
improved across refugee sites. Households with women of
reproductive age, with 4+ members, and without members with
disability/elderly status were associated with higher WASH
access. The female WASH access index piloted here could be a
useful tool to quickly summarize WASH access in households with
women of reproductive age.},

Ghana and Uganda differs by income type and by gender. We find
that non-farm earnings contribute to rising inequality, but that
lower income groups also benefit due to strong overall growth in
non-farm earnings. The inequality-inducing effect is driven by
self-employment income; wage income, on the other hand, reduces
inequality. The tendency of non-farm income to contribute to
inequality is greater among female-headed households for whom
self-employment is important and non-farm opportunities more
constrained. Determinants of non-farm income are estimated and
appear to be strongly related to location, education, age, and
distance to market. Estimates of the linkages to agriculture in
Ghana are weaker than expected, showing the non-farm sector to be
functioning more as an alternative activity to agriculture than
as a complement.},

abstract = {Vulnerability assessment is fundamental for informing adaptation
to climate change policy. The aim of this study is to evaluate
the vulnerability of rural subsistence farmers in Uganda to
climate risk. A mixed methods approach used semi-structured and
guided interviews, and participatory techniques to explore
perception, livelihood response and socio-economic status.
Perception of climate risk varied, with wealthier farmers
perceiving drought as highest risk, whilst poorer farmers
perceived extreme heavy rainfall. Farmers implemented many
general livelihood coping and anticipatory responses (54.7 \%) to
perceived impacts from drought, rainfall variability and extreme
heavy rainfall. Examples included food storage, livestock
maintenance and planting drought-resistant varieties. Other
responses (45.3 \%) were specific to individual climatic events,
and farmers had no response to cope with rainfall variability.
Climate risk was not the only driver of vulnerability. Soil
infertility, pests and diseases, and economic instability also
sustained decreasing trends in income. Adaptive capacity of
households differed with external and internal attributes of
sensitivity. Farmers with more land, education, access to
governmental extension, a non-farm livelihood, larger households
and older age had more capacity to buffer shock through increased
assets and entitlements than poorer farmers who were more likely
to engage in opportunistic behaviour like casual labouring. Few
livelihood responses associated with perceived threat from the
climate indicating response to a broader range of stressors.
Conclusions determined inequality in livelihood response as a
fundamental driver in households’ ability to cope and adapt to
climate risk.},

abstract = {•Education policies, reforms and governance failed to respond to
the multidimensional needs of the poor.•Assimilative models are
not responsive to the root causes of poverty to really affect
social transformation and change.•There is a need for
transformative policies that are cross-sectoral and not just
designed for the education sector alone.•The political economy
context of a country cannot be detached from education sector
reforms.•The focus on economic empowerment through education
sidelines the role of enhancing the political agency of the poor.
Education emerged as a nearly uncontested development strategy to
tackle several forms of social, political, economic and
geographic inequalities in low- and middle-income countries. When
it comes to the case of Uganda, the country represents a striking
paradox. Significant investments and policy reforms in education
(such as Universal Primary and Secondary Education) since 1997,
did not translate into the expected results with regards to
poverty reduction through human capital investment. Progress in
poverty alleviation is not only stagnant but the role of
education therein can be described as ‘modest’ at best. Against
this backdrop, this article assesses the following research
question: Why did Uganda’s investments and policy reforms in
education not uplift the poor? In examining the issue, this
article introduces a theoretical framework that contrasts
assimilative with transformative approaches in poverty
alleviation through education. A rigorous review of Uganda’s
education sector plans revealed that current strategies to reduce
poverty revolve around a strong assimilation-based development
agenda, thereby focusing on three main areas of intervention: (a)
increased access to education and retention; (b) improved quality
of education; and (c) employment generation through education.
The article finds that these assimilative approaches do not have
an impact on the political, economic and social structures that
cause poverty in the first place. Hence, it concludes that
assimilative models in education are highly dependent on
transformative approaches. Concretely, change cannot emerge only
at the very grassroots level, i.e. through educating society at
large, but also has to arise from the systemic level, i.e.
government institutions at the local, national and global levels.
Methodologically, the analysis draws on qualitative data that was
collected in the course of two extensive field research stays in
2015 and 2017. In addition, quantitative data in the form of
statistical abstracts inform the analysis.},

abstract = {Purpose Eradicating extreme poverty remains one of the most
significant and challenging sustainable development goals (SDGs)
in the Middle East and North African (MENA) region. The latest
World Bank statistics from 2018 show that extreme poverty in MENA
increased from 2.6\% to 5\% between 2013 and 2015. MENA ranks
third among developing regions for extreme poverty and fell short
of halving extreme poverty by 2015 – the target established by
the United Nations’ (UN) millennium development goals, the
precursor to the SDGs. The purpose of this study is to analyze
the impact of financial inclusion on extreme poverty for a sample
of 34 countries over the period 1990–2017.
Design/methodology/approach Using system general method of
moments dynamic panel estimation methodology on annual data for
11 MENA countries and 23 emerging markets (EMs) over the period
1990 – 2017, this study begins by estimating the impact of
financial inclusion – using measures of access and usage – on the
eradication of extreme poverty by 2030, the first goal of the
SDGs. Findings The results of the study indicate that, on one
hand, financial access measures have a positive, statistically
significant impact on reducing extreme poverty for the full
sample and the MENA region. The second part of the study uses a
gap analysis against four poverty targets – 0\%, 1.5\%, 3\% and 5
\% – and shows that no MENA country and few EM countries will be
able to close the extreme poverty gap and reach the target of 0\%
by 2030 by depending solely on improvements in financial access.
These targets are based on the two benchmarks set by the World
Bank and the UN, with intermediaries to capture error and give a
fuller picture of what is possible. However, if improvements in
financial inclusion alone can bring every EM and MENA country
except Djibouti and Romania to bring the most accessible target
of reducing global extreme poverty to no more than 5\% by 2030.
Originality/value While research on poverty reduction in the
region tends to focus on financial development and governance,
less attention has been paid to the role of financial inclusion.
SDG 1 – eliminating poverty in all its forms – explicitly
highlights the importance of access to financial services. Indeed
, evidence from Argentina, India, Kenya, Malawi, Niger and other
countries demonstrates the ways in which financial inclusion can
impact poverty (Klapper, El-Zoghbi and Hess, 2016). When people
are included in the financial system, they are better able to
improve their health, invest in education and business and make
choices that benefit their entire families. Financial inclusion
advances governments, too: introducing vast segments of the
population into the financial system by digitizing social
transfers, for example, can cut government costs and reduce
leakage, with benefits that ripple across society. Yet, the links
between financial inclusion and poverty reduction in MENA are
less established. This study aims to analyze the importance of
financial inclusion in addressing extreme poverty by 2030, the
year UN member states set as a target for achieving the SDGs.},

pupils are both poor and highly stratified. We then develop and
test a conceptual framework that highlights three mechanisms
through which family socioeconomic status might contribute to
learning: (1) educational resources at home, (2) health and
well-being, and (3) differences in school quality. We find that
most of the effect of family background on learning outcomes
operates through school quality, which results from a combination
of the unequal distribution of resources (such as teachers and
textbooks) across schools and high socioeconomic segregation
between schools. On the basis of these results, we suggest that
most countries in the region could improve equity as well as
overall performance by “raising the floor” in school quality.},

abstract = {Vietnam is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate
change in the world. Therefore, adaptation is increasingly seen
as both a necessary and urgent response. However, little is known
in terms of who are the most vulnerable and how adaptation will
take place. This thesis examines vulnerability and resilience to
climate variability and change among communities in the northern
mountainous region (NMR) of Vietnam which have been identified as
among the most vulnerable communities in Vietnam. The conceptual
framework of this thesis draws on the linkage between
vulnerability, adaptive capacity and resilience through which to
gain a better understanding of vulnerability, adaptation and
resilience to climate change in Vietnam's NMR. I adopt a
participatory approach to vulnerability assessment using
community villages as case studies and using drought, flood and
cold weather snaps as study events. The case study of the
human-natural system is located in the Ba Be district of Bac Kan
province in the NMR of Vietnam. Data were collected in the field
from July 2009 to February 2010. Primary data in the form of
interviews, focus groups and community workshops, and field
observations, as well as insights from local and regional
decision-makers, resource managers, scientists and secondary data
in the form of published and unpublished literature are used to
investigate how communities manage and experience climate-related
risks. This study found that households and communities in the
NMR are vulnerable to multiple stresses. The main socio-econmic
determinants of local vulnerability include poverty, inequality,
environmental degradation, ethnicity and community. The
interaction of climate risks and local vulnerability factors
threatens to overwhelm their resilience. Therefore, this thesis
argues that adaptation needs to be rooted in both reducing
vulnerability and increasing resilience of communities. The
central approach is to increase the adaptive capacity of
communities to become resilient in the context of change and
uncertainty. It will be more fruitful if policy interventions
focus on improving adaptive capacity of vulnerable communities
rather than providing specific solutions to uncertain future
climates. Addressing fundamental livelihood and development
problems and strengthening social, economic, and environmental
resilience will make it easier for local communities to respond
to climatic risks, whether they are droughts, floods or cold
snaps. Another key conclusion is that communities that learn to
live with change and uncertainty become resilient. The insights
emphasize the importance of learning, information exchange,
reflection, innovation, and anticipation, all of which are key
elements of the adaptation process. Source: TROVE},

causing wage differentials in Vietnam. Additionally, the gender
pay gap, with the focus on the so-called "Within inequality", is
heterogeneous across the wage distribution using unconditional
quantile regression approach. In particular, the gender pay gap
is shown to be higher at the top and the bottom quantiles of the
wage distribution, indicating that inequality is more severe
among low-paid and high-paid wage earners. These findings suggest
that the government's policies should focus on encouraging
education and improving the national economy creating more jobs
for women to reduce gender wage gap in Vietnam.},

,010 respondents divided between a rural coastal and an urban
community inThua Thien-Hue province. The results highlight an
important set of recovery process-related variables. The set of
relevant variables is similar across genders in terms of
inclusion and influence, and includes age, social capital,
internal and external support after a flood, perceived severity
of previous flood impacts, and the perception of
stress-resilience. However, women were affected more heavily by
flooding in terms of longer recovery times, which should be
accounted for in risk management. Overall, the studied variables
perform similarly in Vietnam and Germany. This study, therefore,
conceptually replicates previous results suggesting that women
display slightly slower recovery levels as well as that
psychological variables influence recovery rates more than
adverse flood impacts. This provides an indication of the

abstract = {This field-based study applies a mixed methods approach that
combines both qualitative and quantitative analyses to
investigate the differences in women's vulnerability and
adaptations to climate-related agricultural water scarcity in Ky
Nam commune, Central Vietnam. The study highlights the
heterogeneity of women as a group and their intersectional
dynamics as they adapt to increasing agricultural water scarcity
on their rural livelihoods. The findings show that social
differences including gender, class, household headship, age and
stage of life shape women's differentiated experiences in
vulnerability in access to water, to forestland and credit; in
turn mark their adaptation differentiation to climate-related
agricultural water scarcity. It also stresses that existing
development policies can cause inequality in resource access in
practice, running the risk of further marginalizing certain
groups of women, especially female heads of household. Meanwhile,
the current National Target Program to Respond to Climate Change
of Vietnam is blind to issues of women's differentiated
vulnerability and adaptive capacity. This study suggests that if
these current development and adaptation measures do not pay
proper attention to differentiated gender experience, it is
likely to exacerbate the vulnerabilities of those affected,
particularly female heads of household, rather than help them. In
addition, these development and climate programmes have to be
redesigned to accommodate more context-specific policies instead
of one-size-fits-all packages that will effectively address
women's (and men's) differential needs and unequal relations and
circumstances.},

adaptation planning is increasingly being recognized. However,
evaluations of adaptation often adopt an aggregated perspective,
while disaggregation of results is important to learn about who
benefits when and where. A typical example is adaptation of rice
agriculture in the Vietnam Mekong Delta (VMD). Efforts focused on
flood protection have mainly benefitted large-scale farmers while
harming small-scale farmers. To investigate the distributional
consequences of adaptation policies in the VMD, we assess both
aggregate total output and equity indicators, as well as
disaggregated impacts in terms of district-level farming
profitability. Doing so requires an adequate representation of
the multisectoral dynamics between the human and biophysical
systems which influence farming profitability. We develop a
spatially explicit integrated assessment model that couples
inundation, sedimentation, soil fertility and nutrient dynamics,
and behavioral land-use change and farming profitability
calculation. We find that inter-district inequality responds in a
non-linear way to climatic and socio-economic changes and choices
of adaptation policies. The patterns of who wins and who loses
could change substantially when a different policy is implemented
or if a slightly different uncertain future materializes. We also
find that there is no simple ranking of alternative adaptation
policies, so one should make trade-offs based on agreed
preferences. Accounting for equity implies exploring the
distribution of outcomes over different groups over a range of
uncertain futures. Only by accounting for multisectoral dynamics
can planners anticipate the equity consequences of adaptation and
prepare additional measures to aid the worse-off actors.},

economy is typically undervalued in standard socioeconomic
surveys. In this paper, we analyze the contribution of forests

= 521) and explore the role of these typically underestimated
income sources in interhousehold measures of income inequality.
We find that households in rural Uganda derive 26\% of total
household income from forests and other wild areas including
fallows, agricultural lands, wetlands, grasslands, and shrub
land. In general, households in the lower income quartiles are
more dependent on forest and wild products for subsistence income
, whereas wealthier households are more engaged in the sale of
higher value forest products for cash income. Forests, fallows,
and agricultural lands are the most important sources of
environmental income for households in western Uganda. Income
from forest and wild products plays an important role in reducing
income inequality between households. The loss of this income due
to deforestation and environmental degradation has implications
for rural livelihood portfolios and for the well-being of
relatively poor households.},

abstract = {•Delta interventions to manage flood risk can amplify power and
social inequalities.•The power dimensions of delta interventions
tends to be overlooked.•Resilience in deltas needs to transition
towards a situated and negotiated frame.•Power considerations
need to inform a more holistic understanding of delta resilience.
Historically, flood resilience in large river deltas has been
strongly tied to institutional and infrastructural interventions
to manage flood risk (such as building of embankments and
drainage structures). However, the introduction of
infrastructural works has inevitably brought unforeseen, major
consequences, such as biodiversity and accelerated land
subsidence, endangering the fertile characteristics that made
them interesting places to live in in the first place. These
ripple effects have sparked, a reconsideration of what deltas are
, questioning the very separation and control between nature and
culture, and how deltas are to be dealt with. These effects have
further sparked changing modalities of power that tend to be
overlooked by delta and resilience scholars alike. As a result,
there is a real risk that future interventions to increase
resilience, will in fact amplify unequal power relations in
deltas as opposed to alleviating them. If the system as a whole
has achieved some level of flood resilience (partly due to the
flood defence mechanisms in place), does infrastructure have a
differential effect on people’s mobility under flood conditions?
Are some groups experiencing less rather than more security, as
water accumulates in some places but not others? This paper
presents theoretical insights on the relationship between power
and resilience in delta regions supported by two case studies,
the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna delta in Bangladesh and the Mekong
delta in Vietnam.},

abstract = {Background: The Uganda Government, together with development
partners, has provided continuing support services (including
protection, food, nutrition, healthcare, water and sanitation) to
refugee-hosting Districts to successfully manage refugees from
different neighbouring countries in established settlements. This
service has increased the need for timely and accurate
information to facilitate planning, resource allocation and
decision-making. Complexity in providing effective public health
interventions in refugee settings coupled with increased funding
requirements has created demands for better data and improved
accountability. Health data management in refugee settings is
faced with several information gaps that require harmonisation of
the Ugandan National Health Management Information System (UHMIS)
and United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) Refugee
Health Information System (RHIS). This article discusses the
rationale for harmonisation of the UNHCR RHIS, which currently
captures refugee data, with the UHMIS. It also provides insights
into how refugee health data management can be harmonised within
a country’s national health management information system.
Method: A consultative meeting with various stakeholders,
including the Ugandan Ministry of Health, district health teams,
representatives from UNHCR, the United Nations Children Education
Fund (UNICEF), United States Government and civil society
organisations, was held with an aim to review the UHMIS and UNHCR
RHIS health data management systems and identify ways to
harmonise the two to achieve an integrated system for monitoring
health service delivery in Uganda. Results: Several challenges
facing refugee-hosting district health teams with regard to
health data management were identified, including data collection
, analysis and reporting. There was unanimous agreement to
prioritise an integrated data management system and harmonisation
of national refugee stakeholder data requirements, guided by key
recommendations developed at the meeting. Conclusion: This
article outlines a proposed model that can be used to harmonise
the UNHCR RHIS with the UHMIS. The national refugee stakeholder
data requirements have been harmonised, and Uganda looks forward
to achieving better health data quality through a more
comprehensive national UHMIS to inform policy planning and
evidence-based decision-making.},

abstract = {Abstract Background Contextual factors including poverty and
inequitable gender norms harm refugee adolescent and youths’
wellbeing. Our study focused on Bidi Bidi refugee settlement that
hosts more than 230,000 of Uganda’s 1.4 million refugees. We
explored contextual factors associated with wellbeing among
refugee adolescents and youth aged 16–24 in Bidi Bidi refugee
settlement. Methods We conducted 6 focus groups ( n \,=\,3: women
, n \,=\,3: men) and 10 individual interviews with young refugees
aged 16–24 living in Bidi Bidi. We used physical distancing
practices in a private outdoor space. Focus groups and individual
interviews explored socio-environmental factors associated with
refugee youth wellbeing. Focus groups were digitally recorded,
transcribed verbatim, and coded by two investigators using
thematic analysis. Analysis was informed by a social contextual
theoretical approach that considers the interplay between
material (resource access), symbolic (cultural norms and values),
and relational (social relationships) contextual factors that can
enable or constrain health promotion. Results Participants
included 58 youth (29 men; 29 women), mean age was 20.9 (range
16–24). Most participants (82.8\%, n \,=\,48) were from South
Sudan and the remaining from the Democratic Republic of Congo
(17.2\% [ n \,=\,10]). Participant narratives revealed the
complex interrelationships between material, symbolic and
relational contexts that shaped wellbeing. Resource constraints
of poverty, food insecurity, and unemployment (material contexts)
produced stress and increased sexual and gender-based violence
(SGBV) targeting adolescent girls and women. These economic
insecurities exacerbated inequitable gender norms (symbolic
contexts) to increase early marriage and transactional sex
(relational context) among adolescent girls and young women.
Gendered tasks such as collecting water and firewood also
increased SGBV exposure among girls and young women, and this was
exacerbated by deforestation. Participants reported negative
community impacts (relational context) of COVID-19 that were
associated with fear and panic, alongside increased social
isolation due to business, school and church closures.
Conclusions Resource scarcity produced pervasive stressors among
refugee adolescents and youth. Findings signal the importance of
gender transformative approaches to SGBV prevention that
integrate attention to resource scarcity. These may be
particularly relevant in the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings signal
the importance of developing health enabling social contexts with
and for refugee adolescents and youth.},

inequality of government spending on education across 63

both the Gini coefficient and the Theil index. Inequality in

novel entropic approach, which decomposes the inequality into two
components: “within-province” inequality and “between-province”
inequality. Data for the period from 2010 to 2016 are used. Our
empirical findings are summarized as follows. First,
“within-province” inequality accounts for a substantial portion
of inequality in government spending on education. This means
that although the Vietnamese national government has done well in
terms of allocating spending on education across 63 provinces,
inequality in education spending appears across districts within
provinces. Second, both total inequality of government spending
on education and its two components are positively associated
with income inequality across provinces. As such, reducing
differences in government spending on education across provinces
and across districts within provinces is an effective mechanism
for reducing income inequality across provinces and across
districts within provinces in Vietnam.},

abstract = {Abstract Background On 23 February 2018, the Uganda Ministry of
Health (MOH) declared a cholera outbreak affecting more than 60
persons in Kyangwali Refugee Settlement, Hoima District,
bordering the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). We investigated
to determine the outbreak scope and risk factors for transmission
, and recommend evidence-based control measures. Methods We
defined a suspected case as sudden onset of watery diarrhoea in
any person aged ≥ 2\,years in Hoima District, 1 February–9 May
2018. A confirmed case was a suspected case with Vibrio cholerae
cultured from a stool sample. We found cases by active community
search and record reviews at Cholera Treatment Centres. We
calculated case-fatality rates (CFR) and attack rates (AR) by
sub-county and nationality. In a case-control study, we compared
exposure factors among case- and control-households. We estimated
the association between the exposures and outcome using
Mantel-Haenszel method. We conducted an environmental assessment
in the refugee settlement, including testing samples of stream
water, tank water, and spring water for presence of fecal
coliforms. We tested suspected cholera cases using cholera rapid
diagnostic test (RDT) kits followed by culture for confirmation.
Results We identified 2122 case-patients and 44 deaths (CFR\,=\,
2.1\%). Case-patients originating from Demographic Republic of
Congo were the most affected (AR\,=\,15/1000). The overall attack
rate in Hoima District was 3.2/1000, with Kyangwali sub-county
being the most affected (AR\,=\,13/1000). The outbreak lasted 4
months, which was a multiple point-source. Environmental
assessment showed that a stream separating two villages in
Kyangwali Refugee Settlement was a site of open defecation for
refugees. Among three water sources tested, only stream water was
feacally-contaminated, yielding {$>$}\,100\,CFU/100\,ml. Of 130
stool samples tested, 124 (95\%) yielded V. cholerae by culture .
Stream water was most strongly associated with illness (odds
ratio [ OR ]\,=\,14.2, 95\% CI : 1.5–133), although tank water
also appeared to be independently associated with illness ( OR \,
=\,11.6, 95\% CI : 1.4–94). Persons who drank tank and stream
water had a 17-fold higher odds of illness compared with persons
who drank from other sources ( OR \,=\,17.3, 95\% CI : 2.2–137).
Conclusions Our investigation demonstrated that this was a
prolonged cholera outbreak that affected four sub-counties and
two divisions in Hoima District, and was associated with drinking
of contaminated stream water. In addition, tank water also
appears to be unsafe. We recommended boiling drinking water,
increasing latrine coverage, and provision of safe water by the
District and entire High Commission for refugees.},

abstract = {Very good political and economic relations between Djibouti and
Ethiopia can be treated as an exceptional case in such a
conflict‑ridden region as the Horn of Africa. Ethio‑Djiboutian
cooperation owes its ‘renaissance’ mostly to the consequences of
the Eritrean‑Ethiopian War (1998‑2000) that left Ethiopia without
direct access to a sea basin. Today, almost 90 per cent of
Ethiopia’s imports arrive via the port of Djibouti, while
Ethiopia receives 95 per cent of the Djiboutian regional exports.
One of the major infrastructure projects that should even enhance
this interstate cooperation is the renovation of the Addis
Ababa‑Djibouti railway network. On the international level both
countries are committed to the question of security, peace, and
stability in the Horn of Africa (e.g. they are engaged in Somali
and South Sudanese peace processes). The aim of the article is to
analyze this specific personification of interstate cooperation,
taking into account the conceptual framework imposed by the
definition of ‘interstate cooperation’ proposed by Robert Keohane
back in the 1980s. Moreover, the author attempts to look into the
reasons behind the development of such good relations, seeking an
answer to the question whether or not they are really mutually
beneficial.},

global crisis with effects on gender roles. Recently, communities
surrounding Lake Mburo national park, Uganda have been
experiencing frequent severe droughts. It was against this
background that this study was designed to understand effect of
climate change on gender roles. Methods: This cross sectional
study reviewed the effect of climate change on men and women’s
gender roles using a pragmatic research paradigm based on a
thematic review model using participatory methods and a
structured questionnaire. Results: The study found that men and
women’s gender roles were altered during extreme dryness. Men
played their roles sequentially focusing on one single productive
role, while women played their roles simultaneously, balancing
the demands of each role with their limited available time.
Effect of climate change variability affected productive roles
more in Kiruhura district than Isingiro district. There was
migration of both men and women in search for water and pasture
livestock in Kiruhura district which distorted gender roles of
women. Consequently, women and children had a heavier load and
were the most people affected by climate change effects.
Conclusion: Gender roles of communities surrounding Lake Mburo
National Park, Uganda were affected and altered by the effects of
climate change variability. Therefore, institutions offering
climate services to local communities should consider gender in
decision making, access to resources, information and knowledge.},

Vietnam}}},
author = {Nguyen, Phuong},
date = {2020},
abstract = {The housing affordability problem is a profound and increasing
challenge facing policy-makers in the developing world, where
poor households are the most vulnerable to problems arising from
a shortage of affordable and adequate housing. In Vietnam, the
housing market has undergone fundamental changes driven by
widening income inequality, increasing urbanisation and
decreasing household size. The housing price-to-income ratio, a
measure of housing affordability, is currently at an
unprecedentedly high level. Vietnam's experience is impacted by a
number of elements such as rapidly rising costs of housing,
unequal income distribution, speculative activities, constraints
in land supply and housing finance, housing market structure, and
the regulatory environment. Over three studies, this thesis
carries out the econometric analysis of secondary data to explore
mechanisms underlying housing affordability in Vietnam and its
flow-on effects on household well-being. Noticing that the
distribution of income plays a crucial role in explaining the
housing affordability problem, the first study analyses the
influence of income inequality on a number of housing outcomes,
including housing price-to-income ratio, housing values, and
household choices of housing type and housing conditions in
Vietnam's urban areas. It does so by employing data from the
Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey as well as
district-level data from the Statistical Yearbook of Vietnam from
2010 to 2016. The estimated results demonstrate that rising
income inequality, measured by the Gini coefficient at the
district level, is associated with rising housing cost burden and
a substitution effect towards consuming poor-quality housing
resulting from a lack of housing affordability. The findings of
this study provide deep insights into the long-lasting existence
of informal and self-built housing in Vietnam, which is
predominantly in sub-standard forms and frequently lack essential
amenities. Next, the second study measures the effects of poor
housing conditions on occupants' physical and mental health. This
study employs the Vietnam Access to Resources Household Survey
(VARHS) data from 2008 to 2016. Empirical findings from this
chapter indicate that living in deprived housing conditions is
associated with a higher number of sick days within a year,
worsening mental well-being and a more inferior self-reported
health status of the occupants. The estimated results also show
that the intensity of deprived housing conditions, measured by an
increase in the number of housing problems, tends to worsen all
health outcomes considered. These results provide a better
understanding of the role of a dwelling's structural and sanitary
conditions on individuals' health and have important implications
for public policies. The third study examines the role of housing
conditions in enhancing households' resilience to natural
disasters. This study separately looks at three of the most
frequently occurring natural disasters in Vietnam, which include
floods, droughts, and typhoons. This study also uses data from
the VARHS. The findings from this chapter make a significant
contribution to the literature on natural disasters by analysing
the link between the physical attributes of housing and the
probability of achieving full recovery post a disaster. In
particular, the empirical findings suggest that those living in
substandard houses are not only more vulnerable to disasters but
take longer to recover. Source: TROVE},

abstract = {Mountains cover approximately three quarters of the Vietnam,
mainly in the north, west, and central parts of the country.
Among the 38 ethnic minorities inhabiting the northern mountains
of Vietnam, the Thai population is the second largest. Cultural
landscapes and traditional agricultural uplands shaped by the
Thai have a long history and represent a mosaic of paddy and
vegetable fields along rivers and springs, forests and
plantations of trees on slopes. This pattern is now changing
significantly, which results in a diversification of the fields
shaped by Thai farmers. This study deals with understanding the
pressures driving the changes, the new state of the upland
agriculture, and the way the Thai of the Son Thinh mountain (Yen
Bai, Vietnam) respond to sustain their upland farming systems.
Land quality indicators (LQIs) are identified using the
pressure–state–response (PSR) framework. Sixty completed
questionnaires with 65 closed questions each using a five-point
Likert scale were collected in 2016. The results show that Thai
farmers nowadays apply a wider-scale solutions to deal with the
sustainability of agricultural upland on the slopes as compared
to a limited number of traditional farming techniques that were
used in the past. Climate change hazards (floods, droughts,
landslides, extreme cold, and flash floods), the scarcity of
irrigation water, and agricultural land put pressure on the
slopes. The most noticeable socioeconomic impacts are migration,
population growth, and unstable input and output prices. The most
considerable changes in the state of the land quality are soil
erosion, land degradation, and local cultivation practices.
Modifying cultivation options, applying soil conservation
practices, improving indigenous techniques, and implementing
agricultural land use policies are the most significant responses
to modify land use and its pressures. Responses of the Thai
farmers on sustainable sloping land use are put in a structural
model with a horizontal diversification strategy. Recommendations
concern mainstreaming the local indigenous knowledge on
agricultural land use, land management policies, and implementing
the LQIs based on PSR framework for sustainable land use planning
on the slopes in Vietnam.},

six simultaneous equations using 3SLS, is used to estimate the

analysis, the countries are classified into groups according to
the democratic status on the one side, and the level of income on
the other. The results indicate that democracy enhances growth
through its positive effect on health in all classifications of
countries within the MENA region. However, the effect of
democracy on growth through education and physical capital/labor
is non-monotonic. Democracy hinders growth through government
size and trade openness. Once all of these indirect effects are
accounted for, the overall effect of democracy on growth is
negative in less democratic countries and poor countries, but
positive in more democratic countries and rich countries.},

disasters is essential in social and environmental research to
facilitate further studies in investigating the impacts of the
events, as well as in examining the adaptive strategies and
having implications for policymakers and relevant institutional
bodies. We took this essential feature to study the perceptions
of local people toward the two common natural disasters: flash
floods and landslides. We selected the case study in three
communes (An Binh, An Thinh, and Dai Son) in Van Yen district,
Yen Bai province in Vietnam. This is because flash floods and
landslides are two frequent natural disasters that highly
adversely affect these areas where major poor ethnic minority
communities reside. We conducted six Focus Group Discussions
(FGDs) and household surveys (405 households) in 2016. The
results showed that a decline in productivity, a decrease in
income, more hard-working conditions, and an increase in daily
expenses were the most observed impacts of these natural
disasters in the communes. The analysis also revealed that almost
45\% of farmers perceived an increasing trend in the frequency
and impacts of flash floods and landslides over the past 15
years. A Multinomial Logit (MNL) model was used to analyze the
determinants of farmers' awareness of flash floods and landslides
, which indicated that farmers' perceptions of flash floods and
landslides are associated with socio-economic characteristics,
such as gender, agricultural experience, ethnic groups, climate
information, and household income conditions. We suggested that
local governments should pay more attention to strengthen
farmers' awareness to help improve perceptions of local people
toward common natural disasters so that they would gain better
adaptive capacities and become more sustainable, which are in
line with the Sustainable Development Goals. [Display omitted]

cities. While demand is growing, conventional grids are failing
or insufficient, especially in Africa. Urban dwellers therefore
have to develop a wide range of (in)formal infrastructures to
meet their daily electricity needs. Building on recent studies on
urban electricity in the global South, this paper aims to
contribute to the debates on hybrid forms of electricity
provision by analysing the diffusion of solar panels and
generators in two cities, Ibadan in Nigeria and Cotonou in Benin.
Although neighbouring and relatively similar, these two cities
illustrate distinct daily electrical lives. In Nigeria, an
electricity-exporting country, people face daily power outages.
In Benin, a country that depends on Nigeria for its supply, there
is electricity but it is difficult to connect to the grid because
of connection costs. Based on an empirical study, the article
shows that Ibadan’s inhabitants use generators as a complement to
a conventional grid that is almost universal but unreliable. In
Cotonou, solar energy is an alternative until they can connect to
the grid. Generators and solar panels have become the material
markers of urban Africa, providing information on inequalities in
access to electricity.},

abstract = {Climate change is a major challenge to rural livelihoods in
Vietnam, particularly in remote and mountainous areas. Access and
use of climate information is considered vital to households’ and
communities’ adaptive capacity. This research employed a survey
to investigate barriers to the access, and use of, formal climate
change information among two groups of farmers (ethnic minority
and Kinh) in mountainous areas of Thừa Thiên Huế province,
Vietnam. Adopting a logit model, the results show that the main
barriers were: 1) farmers’ lack of trust of formal
climate-related services; 2) farmers’ lack of perceived risk from
climate change; and 3) difficulties in balancing climate
adaptation and economic benefits of new interventions. Ethnicity
was not a barrier, as all farmers looked for climate information
from informal channels (friends, neighbors, market actors) rather
than from formal channels (agricultural departments, television,
radio), although cultural issues such as language did act as a
barrier. This research recommends strengthening the networks and
interactions between market actors and government staff with
local people, through direct communication and adaptation
demonstrations. Formal and informal climate information channels
should be integrated to effectively combine local resources and
indigenous knowledge with advanced technologies, to support
farmers’ sustainable and robust climate adaptation responses.
Further, the research found that while farmers have access to
devices, such as smart phones, they prefer to use these for
entertainment rather than climate information. The implications
of the study therefore are that any future network or
communication activities should be in local languages and note
the limitations of using devices for information dissemination.},

abstract = {While Uganda has made significant efforts in reducing the
proportion of individuals and households living below the
absolute poverty line, nearly 10 percent of the households
continue to live in persistent or chronic poverty with
significant differences across geographical areas. Of all
households classified aspoor in 2009/10, nearly 49 percent were
chronically poor households and as such the poor are not a
homogenous group. Compared to 1992-99 period, households in
Uganda were found to be more vulnerable to poverty in the period
2005/6-2009/10. These observed changes in the nature and patterns
of poverty dynamics in Uganda require government to move away
from universal poverty reduction interventions that continue to
treat the poor as a homogenous group. Otherwise, Uganda’s
achievement of the first millennium development goal of halving
extreme income poverty earlier than 2015 might not be
sustainable.The paper also examines the drivers of income
inequality and finds that education remains the key determinant
of income inequality. At the same time, income differences
between regions are narrowing suggesting an indication of
regional convergence on average income. While government’s fiscal
targeting of the lagging areas and rural areas might explain the
observed convergence in average income across geographical areas,
there are other emerging development challenges that require
further refinement for the current targeting. Access to public
extension programs such as the National Agricultural Advisory
Services (NAADS), which are intended to enhance agricultural
production and productivity is skewed to well-to-do households
and not evenly distributed across region. Similar observations
are noted in terms of access to community infrastructure. There
is also need to ensure that the benefit of economic growth reach
the poorest in a way that expands their opportunities.},

abstract = {Social inequalities have grown during Vietnam's transition to a
market-based economy, even as average incomes have increased and
the number of people living in poverty has lessened. Do widening
social rifts - between rich and poor, urban and rural communities
and along regional, gender and ethnic lines - have the potential
to undermine Vietnam's liberal reforms and its integration with
its region? How has the socialist state responded to these
challenges? Based on research and analysis of recent conditions,
Social Inequality in Vietnam and the Challenges to Reform offers
detailed descriptions of disparities in income, spatial access,
gender, ethnicity and status, addressing their causes and
consequences. The eleven chapters in this book illustrate the
changing ways in which people have accumulated wealth, social and
cultural capital in Vietnam's move from a socialist to a
market-oriented society. They assemble data from the Northern
Uplands to the Mekong delta to explore geographic variability in
patterns of social differentiation. Offering critical insights
into state policy, the chapters assess the adequacy of government
responses and outline local responses and informal solutions to
social disadvantage. This book features a diverse mix of
theoretical and methodological approaches and bridges some of the
disciplinary and institutional divides that have impeded
understanding of inequality in Vietnam. The wide range of themes
it covers will make it a sought-after resource for those
interested in contemporary Vietnam and the effects of liberal
reforms, globalization and post-socialist development strategies.

identification of the contribution of unobserved heterogeneity at
the household and the community level. Using Demographic and
Health Survey data for six Francophone countries in Central and
West sub-Saharan Africa, we find that differences in the
distributions of factors that determine mortality-not differences
in their effects-explain almost the entire gap. Higher infant
mortality rates in rural areas mainly derive from the rural
disadvantage in household characteristics, both observed and
unobserved, which explain two-thirds of the gap. Among the
observed characteristics, environmental factors-a safe source of
drinking water, electricity, and quality of housing materials-are
the most important contributors. Community characteristics
explain less than onequarter of the gap, with about two-thirds of
this coming from community unobserved heterogeneity and one-third
from the existence of a health facility within the community. The
effect of disadvantageous environmental conditions-such as
limited electricity and water supply-derives both from a lack of
community-level infrastructure and from the inability of some
households to exploit it when available. Policy needs to operate
at both the community and household levels to correct such
deficiencies.},

abstract = {The extreme poverty line is the most commonly used benchmark for
poverty, set at US\$ 1.90 by the World Bank. Another benchmark,
based on the Anker living wage methodology, is the remuneration
received for a standard work week necessary for a worker to meet
his/her family's basic needs in a particular place. The living
wage concept has been used extensively to address incomes of
plantation workers producing agricultural commodities for
international markets. More recently intense discussion has
emerged concerning the `living income' of smallholder farmers who
produce commodities for international supply chains on their own
land. In this article we propose a simple method that can be used
in all types of development projects to benchmark a rural `living
income'. We launch the Living Income Methodology, as adapted from
the Living Wage Methodology, to estimate the living income for
rural households. In any given location this requires about one
week of fieldwork. We express it per adult equivalent per day
(AE/day) and data collection is focused on rural households and
their immediate surroundings. Our three case studies showed that
in 2017 in Lushoto District, rural Tanzania, the living income
was US\$ PPP 4.04/AE/day, in Isingiro District, rural Uganda,
3.82 and in Sidama Zone, rural Ethiopia, 3.60. In all cases, the
extreme poverty line of US\$ PPP 1.90 per capita per day is
insufficient to meet the basic human rights for a decent living
in low-income countries. The Living Income Methodology provides a
transparent local benchmark that can be used to assess
development opportunities of rural households, by employers in
rural areas, including farmers hiring in labour, while respecting
basic human rights on a decent living. It can be used to reflect
on progress of rural households in low-income countries on their
aspired path out of poverty. It further provides a meaningful
benchmark to measure progress on Sustainable Development Goal 1,
eliminating poverty, and 2, zero hunger and sustainable food
systems, allowing for consideration of the local context.},

abstract = {Historically, women's contributions to the economic, political,
and social well-being of a society have been dramatically
devalued. It is only in the last fifty years that the thinking
towards the role of women has shifted. Today, there is general
global consensus that female empowerment is "smart economics" and
that gender equality has a positive effect on economic growth and
human development. The inverse relationship, that economic growth
has a positive effect on advancing gender equality is more
controversial and understudied. To gain a broader picture of the
role of women in economic development, as well as a more nuanced
understanding of the relationship between economic growth and
gender equality, this paper situates women within the human
development paradigm and first explores the notion of economic
empowerment. A discussion of the importance of women's
empowerment to economic development follows. With this framework
laid, the context of economic development and gender equity in
East Africa is explored, followed by two specific case studies of
Ethiopia and Uganda. This paper draws several conclusions about
the role of women in the economic development trajectories of
Ethiopia and Uganda, namely that discrimination and
marginalization of women in Ethiopia and Uganda has limited both
women's roles economic development and impeded their human
development. In the Ethiopian and Ugandan economies, women do not
participate in high growth sectors and a majority of women, if
employed, work in the agriculture sector with substantially
unequal access and control over productive resources. In both
nations, girls are expected to attend less school than boys,
resulting in lower literacy compared with their male
counterparts. In health, life expectancy has improved
substantially in both Ethiopia and Uganda and girls have a higher
life expectancy than boys at birth. Despite said advances,
fertility rates remain astronomically high in both Ethiopia and
Uganda, which curbs (sustained) economic growth potential and
women's empowerment. This evidence suggests that if Ethiopia and
Uganda significantly increase economic and educational
opportunities for women, while maintaining gains in healthcare,
fertility rates will decrease and more sustained economic growth
can occur, which will ultimately have positive gains for women's
empowerment and for development.},

the difficult message that the world is not on track to meet the
global goal of reducing extreme poverty to 3 percent by 2030.
This edition brings the unwelcome news that COVID-19, along with
conflict and climate change, has not merely slowed global poverty
reduction but reversed it for first time in over twenty years.
With COVID-19 predicted to push up to 100 million additional
people into extreme poverty in 2020, trends in global poverty
rates will be set back at least three years over the next decade.
Today, 40 percent of the global poor live in fragile or
conflict-affected situations, a share that could reach two-thirds
by 2030. Multiple effects of climate change could drive an
estimated 65 to 129 million people into poverty in the same
period. "Reversing the reversal" will require responding
effectively to COVID-19, conflict, and climate change while not
losing focus on the challenges that most poor people continue to
face most of the time. Though these are distinctive types of
challenges, there is much to be learned from the initial response
to COVID-19 that has broader implications for development policy
and practice, just as decades of addressing more familiar
development challenges yield insights that can inform responses
to today's unfamiliar but daunting ones. Solving novel problems
requires rapid learning, open cooperation, and strategic
coordination by everyone: from political leaders and scientists
to practitioners and citizens"--},

change impacts, especially from extreme weather events such as
storms and floods. Thus, climate change adaptation is crucial,
especially for natural resource-dependent farmers. Based on a
qualitative research approach using a feminist political ecology
lens, this article investigates gendered patterns of rural
agrarian livelihoods and climate adaptation in the province of
Thái Bình. In doing so, we identify differentiated rights and
responsibilities between female and male farmers, leading to
unequal opportunities and immobility for females, making them
more vulnerable to climate impacts and threatening to reduce
their capacity to adapt. This research also shows that demands on
farmers to contribute to perpetual increases in agricultural
output by the state poses a challenge, since farming livelihoods
in Vietnam are increasingly becoming feminised, as a result of
urbanisation and devaluation of farming. Past and present
national strategies and provincial implementation plans linked to
climate change do not consider the burden affecting rural female
farmers, instead the focus lies on addressing technical solutions
to adaptation. With little attention being paid to an
increasingly female workforce, existing gender inequalities may
be exacerbated, threatening the future existence of rural
livelihoods and the viability of Vietnam’s expansion into global
markets.},
