The IDA currently comprises eight global and four regional DPOs, two other regional DPOs have observer status. With member organisations around the world, the IDA represents the estimated one billion people worldwide living with an impairment. This is the world's largest - and most frequently overlooked - minority group.

Beyond funding, there have been improvements in doctoral education through initiatives providing incentives for universities to implement structured PhD programmes that are seen to play an important role in raising the quality of research as well as attractiveness for domestic talent and talent from abroad. While progress has been made towards higher quality and excellence in Austrian science, expectations have not been met across the board. Considering the experience had in a number of countries, both the RFTE and the Austrian Science Board have recently published recommendations in support of an Austrian excellence initiative.

Likewise, poor sanitary facilities in touristic venues and a strong perception of insecurity by both visitors and residents who wish to open new businesses also constitute impediments to tourism attraction and development. Adding to its own deficiencies, in the past decade, Morelos’ tourism sector has been impacted by the global economic crisis, which has translated into fewer numbers of people traveling and coming to visit the region: national and international visitors alike. Concentrating service delivery often includes administrative services, healthcare, shopping and so on, in specific places with transport networks organised so as to make them as accessible as possible to the rural population of the surrounding areas.

There is also attachment to horizontal connectedness, which defines Principle 7. Somewhat less apparent is the personalisation inherent in Principles 4 and 5, whether because it is viewed as less important or because they are understood as subsumed by the other learning principles. Measurement of students’ deep learning competency development differs greatly from the types of assessment common in education systems globally.

Temporary workers are worse off in terms of many aspects of job quality. They tend to receive less training and, in addition, have more job strain and have less job security than workers in standard jobs. Earnings levels are also lower in terms of annual and hourly wages. Evidence shows that temporary workers in OECD countries face a wage penalty, even after controlling for observable individual, family and work characteristics (OECD, 2015a). On average, a temporary contract worker receives an hourly wage that is 11% lower for men than their counterparts in standard jobs (13% lower for women). The under-investment in human capital associated with short-term contracts can give rise to lower wages for temporary workers.

The founding debate of judicial politics—is Supreme Court decision making driven by law or politics? —remains at center stage. One influential line of attack involves the identification of jurisprudential regimes, stable patterns of case decisions based on the influence of case factors. The key test is whether the regime changes after a major precedent-setting decision, that is, whether the case factors are subsequently treated differently by the Supreme Court justices themselves so that they vote as though constrained by precedent. We analyze whether binding jurisprudential regime change actually exists. The standard test assumes votes are independent observations, even though they are clustered by case and by term. We argue that a (nonparametric) “randomization test” is more appropriate. We find little evidence that precedents affect voting.

Moreover, it reduced the country's overall poverty gap by 21 percent and by 54 percent for households with older people (Omilola and Kaniki, 2014). The analysis by Barrientos (2003) also indicates that the social pension reduces the likelihood of falling into poverty by 12.5 percent. In place of conditions, some programmes include specific messaging recommending how transfers should be spent.

In India, weak corporate and bank balance sheets also contributed to a sharp slowdown in investment, thus, simply lowering policy interest rates was not enough to revive investment in that country. Over the past year, there has been a welcome recovery in investment. In line with firmer global demand and stronger trade, investment in export-oriented manufacturing sectors picked up. Increased public infrastructure outlays have also supported strong investment in such countries as Indonesia and Pakistan.

Similarly, they calculate that only 35 % of benefits spells last one year or less, compared to around 58% of spells with a duration below 12 months reported in Table 9. Even though the benefit receipt rate in urban Rotterdam is two to three times as high as the one for the country as a whole, heterogeneity in spell durations within the country does not appeal' to be responsible for the differences in findings. The postcode information in the SSB data can be used to restrict the sample to recipients who live in city of Rotterdam at the beginning of their spell.

These efforts culminated in the adoption of the National Financial Inclusion Policy in mid-2016. Among them, the focus is placed on a broad basket of financial services aimed at meeting the needs of small-scale rural producers, and not just the provision of credit for primary activities. Secondly, it seeks to develop an environment that encourages the private provision of services with sustainability criteria, both in relation to the users and providers of financial services at the individual level, and for the financial system as a whole. Lastly, a key element of the new strategies is the development and strengthening of the capacities of all the actors involved.

While the storage facilities were emptied of pesticide stocks, the state of these storehouses remained a problem. The environment within these premises was contaminated and some of them are partially damaged. Until its closure in 1990 the plant produced sodium dichromate for leather tanning, pesticides such as lindane (gamma-HCH) and thiram. Pollution from these processes heavily contaminated an area that includes the former plant, a nearby dumpsite and abandoned chemical storage facilities.

Engaging migrants in local partnerships builds trust among the migrants themselves, the city and the host community, and increases migrants' visibility in the social fabric of the city. While the contribution of migrants to development in their communities of origin has long been recognized, empowering migrants as actors in their cities of destination could also enhance their human and social potential for co-development. Attracting migrants with appropriate skill levels helps the local economies to be competitive and to meet existing labour shortages and skills needs.

After the end of the military regime, the new coalition - made up of centre-left parties (<Concertacion) - implemented several reforms in the labour market and in the social sector, financing them through a new tax reform (1990) and supported by the favorable external conditions and sustained economic growth. During the first half of the nineties (1990-1996) the moderate poverty rate dropped from 38.6 to 23.2 per cent and the indigence rate followed a similar trend, falling from 12.9 to 5.8 per cent (de la Guardia et al., Conversely, the second half of the nineties was characterized by relative stagnation, especially for extreme poverty, which decreased by just 0.1 points between 1996 and 2000.

Products with MFN rates higher than 15% were subject to a 5% rate in 2005, and entered China/ASEAN-6 duty free starting in 2006. The Agreement on TVade in Goods between ASEAN and China was signed in November 2004 and set out the modalities for tariff reductions and elimination for tariff lines categorised in either the Normal Track or the Sensitive Track commencing on 1 July 2005. Tariff lines on the “Normal track”, covering 40% of tariff lines, were gradually reduced and traded duty free from 1 January 2010 (for ASEAN-6 and China) or 2015 (for ASEAN-4). Products on the “Sensitive” track were further categorised into Sensitive and Highly Sensitive Lists.

This paper examines the transformation within the practice and concept of contemporary  peacebuilding.  Peacebuilding,  practically  and  conceptually, has  been  dominated  by  the  liberal  peace  paradigm.  In  this  case,  the institutionalising of its core ideas such as democratisation, human rights, the rule of law,  and liberal market system to the post-conflict states and to a socalled „fragile/failed states‟  aiming at bringing peace and security has failed to  create  a  comprehensive  and  sustainable  peace  on  the  ground  as exemplified  in  Nicaragua,  Haiti,  Bosnia,  Afghanistan,  and  other  post-war states. Scholars focused on the issue of peacebuilding have engaged  to a new approach  that challenge the domination of the liberal paradigm through the accommodation and appreciation upon the „local‟ and thus create spaces for the  interaction  between  the  liberal  and  the  „local‟  within  forms  of   hybrid peace‟ or   hybrid peacebuilding‟.

Personality likely affects health through behaviours such as smoking, eating and exercising habits. Selfesteem is also susceptible to reduce risky sexual behaviour, notably among girls (number of partners, unprotected sexual encounters, Favara, 2013). Traits measured during elementary school directly influence health outcomes during midlife, and moreover indirectly through educational attainment. Most studies control for relevant background factors, including the severity of disease.

Modest progress has been made in creating the enabling regulatory frameworks, in Kenya, Mauritius, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda, the entire telecommunications, broadcasting and information technology sectors have been regulated {OECD-WTO aid-for-trade monitoring exercise 2017, Public sector case story 16). For instance, the government of Pakistan has embraced the digital economy and now offers a wide range of services online, including social welfare payments, citizen liaison services and automated border control. Some of these services are exported to other developing countries. The Universal Service Fund aims to provide national broadband coverage in every region in Pakistan by 2018. Its main objective is to increase the level of telecom penetration in rural areas by encouraging telecom operators to focus on rural and unserved populations, improve broadband penetration in the country, and significantly boost e-services in both rural and urban parts of the country. As of 2016, the results include: almost half a million contracts signed, more than 700 000 broadband subscribers, and the establishment of 1 328 educational broadband centres as well as 369 community broadband centres {OECD-WTO aid-for-trade monitoring exercise2017, Public sector case story 87).

The variety of delivery options and potential increase in the number of sector participants implied by distributed systems reinforces the need for enhanced regulatory oversight. For instance, it is essential that the quality and reliability of electricity installations is safeguarded not only for the benefit of electricity users, but also for the reliability of the grid. In this regard, the sector regulator will need to put in place the necessary rules to govern product, safety, and system interoperability.

These issues should be addressed by tine countries of origin. The few studies in this field show that migrants do not have full access to information and services in this regard and thus may face various risks. The opportunities for raising awareness are hampered by "traditional" values according to which sexual relations are possible only between spouses, thus, knowledge about contraception and sexually transmitted infections is not required. Raising awareness is a goal to be achieved with the concerted attempts of the countries of origin and destination, as well as international organizations.

The article promotes a discussion on the intersections between recent social policies of supplementary income and basic education. It points to some of the principal tendencies in current social policy identified by the literature, in the context of globalisation and social exclusion, relating them to data on poverty and inequality in Brazil. It discusses the differences between the concepts of poverty, hunger and exclusion, amongst others, attempting to situate the programmes of supplementary income associated directly or indirectly with the school, which were established in the last decade in this country. It summarises and comments data from research on the impact of some of these programmes and proposes questions which should be considered both in the debate on educational policy and on public administration and in future studies.

With their USD 71 trillion in assets, institutional investors - including pension funds and insurance companies - potentially have an important role to play in financing clean energy programmes. Given the current low interest rate environment and weak economic growth prospects in many OECD countries, institutional investors are increasingly looking for ‘real’ asset classes which can deliver steady, preferably inflation adjusted, income streams with low correlations to the returns of other investments. Clean energy projects can provide institutional investors with investments which potentially combine these sought-after characteristics.

This article examines the proposal that, in order to overcome the comparative law problem of diverse national positions in relation to corporate criminal liability, a scheme involving administrative or civil liability should be adopted if corporations are to be included in the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court. It is argued that, despite the obvious practical appeal of such a solution, a criminal liability scheme should be preferred as perpetrators of international crimes – both natural and legal – should be subject to the full expressive and stigmatising capacities of the criminal law. However, recent international developments in corporate liability suggest a possible middle ground that may provide an acceptable solution to a majority of states.

The options range from standalone, sector-specific, social protection or agricultural programmes, which, by virtue of their design, reflect bringing together the two in integrated interventions that combine both social protection and agriculture, to sectoral interventions that are aligned in order to maximize complementarities and reduce contradictions (Gavrilovic etal., These categorizations are flexible, with approaches combined or sequenced in a variety of ways. Social protection interventions can be designed to enhance the agricultural livelihoods of its beneficiaries. As discussed in Chapter 4, even altering the design and implementation of social protection interventions, such as the size, timing and regularity of cash transfers, can strengthen their impacts on agriculture.

It arose from calls from women’s rights scholars and activists, as well as the women’s and feminist movements, to address the power and patriarchy that lie at the root of discrimination and inequality. This introduced a need to broaden and deepen the development focus beyond women, to address gender roles and relations, differential access to resources and control of them, and ultimately the power imbalance between men and women. In doing so it opened an opportunity to question how traditional social roles, norms and expectations formed the basis for inequality in the private and public spheres, as ensconced in unequal institutions—whether in families, communities, schools, the professional sphere, politics or beyond.
