Guinea-Bissau Country Economic Memorandum : Terra Ranca! A Fresh Start, Summary

марта, 2015

After decades of turmoil and
instability, a period of calm and progress evolved in
Guinea-Bissau in 2009. A military coup in April 2012
interrupted it. A fresh start is needed to alter the

National Income per capita was US$590. Average economic
growth barely kept pace with population growth. In 2010,
poverty at the national poverty line of US$2 a day was 70

Gender Differentials and Agricultural Productivity in Niger

марта, 2015

Most of the poor in Sub-Saharan Africa
live in rural areas where agriculture is the main income
source. This agriculture is characterized by low performance
and its productivity growth has been identified as a key
driver of poverty reduction. In Niger, as in many other

agricultural productivity among women, it is important to

South African township economies and commercial property markets

Conference Papers & Reports
февраля, 2015
South Africa

Despite numerous studies on townships, research into township economies and related commercial real estate markets is limited. The majority of studies refer to the economy only as part of a broader discussion about other themes such as housing. And, while the information in these studies is useful, it is not captured and discussed within an overarching conceptual framework, which would allow the relationships and causal factors that shape and drive such economies to be understood.

Mali

Urban and peri-urban land markets in rapidly expanding West African cities operate within and across different coexisting tenure regimes and involve complex procedures to obtain or make land available for housing.

This Fifth Edition of the Uganda Economic Update presents evidence that if the urbanization process is well managed, it has the potential to stimulate economic growth and to provide productive jobs for a greater proportion of Uganda’s young and rapidly expanding population. In many countries across the world, the growth of cities has stimulated the establishment and expansion of productive businesses by reducing the distance between suppliers and customers. The growth of cities has also facilitated provision of social services and infrastructure through economies of scale.

Despite a decline in both monetary and
multidimensional poverty rates since 2000, Haiti remains
