    No full text
    Gempa yang belakangan ini sering terjadi di wilayah Indonesia banyak mengakibatkan kegagalan struktur, dimana persentase kerusakan terbesar adalah rumah-rumah sederhana berdinding bata atau batako. Rumah-rumah di Indonesia pada umumnya menggunakan bata dan batako sebagai bahan utama pembuatan dinding. Dalam pelaksanaanya seringkali kualitas strukturnya kurang memiliki kinerja yang memadai dalam menahan beban gempa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbandingan karakteristik berbagai macam dinding rumah tembokan. Untuk mengetahui karakteristik model kerusakan dinding yaitu meliputi hubungan beban-simpangan, pola retak, kekakuan dan daktilitas, maka dalam penelitian ini digunakan dinding dengan ukuran 3000x3000x140 mm yang meliputi dinding tanpa bukaan (Wall Without Opening, WTO) dan dinding dengan bukaan (Wall With Opening, WWO) yang terbuat dari bahan bataton. Metode pembebanan dilakukan dengan beban bolak-balik untuk memodelkan beban gempa yang mengacu pada standar ACI 374.1-05 (American Concrete Institute). Dari hasil penelitian, didapatkan Ppeak yang terjadi pada benda uji WTO sebesar 71,08 kN lebih besar 34,93 % dari benda uji WWO yaitu 46,25 kN. Simpangan yang terjadi pada saat Ppeak benda uji WTO sebesar 3,93 mm lebih kecil 30,69 % dari benda uji WWO yang memiliki simpangan sebesar 5,67 mm

    Rules and Regulations, Managerial Time and Economic Development

    This paper documents that senior plant managers in less-developed countries spend more time dealing with government rules and regulations than their counterparts in richer countries. These facts are interpreted through the lens of a span-of-control growth model, in which top managers run heterogeneous production plants, employing middle managers as well as production workers. The model implies that increasing the time burden on top management leads to equilibrium changes in wages, occupational sorting, the size distribution of production plants and ultimately, to a reduction in aggregate output. These consequences hold even when the time burden is symmetric across all plants. Quantitative results show that increasing the burden on managers’ time from the levels observed in Denmark to the higher levels observed in poorer countries have substantial consequences. Imposing the average time spent on regulations in Argentina reduces aggregate output by about 1/3 and mean plant size by more than 5 employees. Results contribute to rationalizing differences in plant size and output across countries via a channel hitherto unexplored in the literature

    The AI revolution is transforming education at an unprecedented pace, offering opportunities to personalize learning experiences, support teachers, and optimize education management. This brief explores nine key AI-driven innovations in Latin America and the Caribbean, divided into solutions for teachers, students, and administration. For teachers, AI-powered mentors and feedback systems are improving teacher recruitment, retention, and professional development. AI-assisted lesson planning and automated administrative tasks are empowering educators to focus on teaching and mentoring students. Students benefit from AI-powered tutoring systems that adapt to their individual needs. The brief also examines the use of generative AI for assignments and the need to foster responsible AI use. In education administration, AI streamlines processes, identifies at-risk students, and optimizes resource allocation, such as matching teachers to vacancies and students to schools. Navigating the promise and challenges of AI requires addressing key issues like digital divide, ethical governance, and limited evidence on effectiveness at scale. AI should enhance human expertise, not replace it. Policymakers must proactively shape the responsible development of AI to create an inclusive, innovative future of learning for all.La revolución de la IA está transformando la educación a un ritmo sin precedentes y ofrece oportunidades para personalizar las experiencias de aprendizaje, apoyar a los docentes y optimizar la gestión educativa. En esta reseña se analizan nueve innovaciones clave impulsadas por la IA en América Latina y el Caribe, divididas en soluciones para docentes, estudiantes y administración. En el caso de los docentes, los tutores y los sistemas de retroalimentación impulsados por IA están mejorando la contratación, la retención y el desarrollo profesional de los docentes. La planificación de las clases asistida por IA y las tareas administrativas automatizadas están permitiendo a los educadores centrarse en la enseñanza y la tutoría de los estudiantes. Los estudiantes se benefician de sistemas de tutoría impulsados por IA que se adaptan a sus necesidades individuales. En la nota también se examina el uso de la IA generativa para los trabajos y la necesidad de fomentar su uso responsable. En la administración de la educación, la IA agiliza los procesos, identifica a los estudiantes en riesgo y optimiza la asignación de recursos, por ejemplo, vinculando a los docentes con las vacantes y a los estudiantes con las escuelas. Para abordar las promesas y los desafíos que plantea la IA, es necesario abordar cuestiones clave como la brecha digital, la gestión ética y las escasas pruebas sobre la eficacia a gran escala. La IA debe acrecentar la pericia humana, no reemplazarla. Los responsables de formular políticas deben configurar de manera proactiva el desarrollo responsable de la IA para crear un futuro de aprendizaje inclusivo e innovador para todos

    The State of Economic Inclusion Report (SEI) 2024 explores efforts to scale up economic inclusion programs - bundles of coordinated, multidimensional interventions that support individuals, households, and communities to sustainably increase their incomes and assets - in the context of overlapping crisis. These programs transform the economic lives of the poorest and most vulnerable people, building their resilience and creating job opportunities. The report features data from 405 programs across 88 countries, benefiting over 70 million individuals either directly or indirectly. This marks almost doubling in the number of programs and nearly a 50 percent increase in coverage since the SEI 2021 report. Governments continue to lead in scaling up these economic inclusion programs, covering nearly three-fourths of program participants. However, non-governmental programs have also significantly contributed to the increase in coverage in recent years, in addition to serving as both service providers and capacity building providers for governments. The report offers five important contributions: 1) Positioning economic inclusion programs as crucial for building resilience and providing job opportunities for the poor and vulnerable in the face of overlapping crises. 2) Analyzing the global landscape over the past three years, highlighting the extent to which economic inclusion programs are being customized for diverse contexts and groups, including a cross-cutting focus on gender. 3) Reviewing progress and challenges in the design and implementation of government-led programs, including the interplay with communities, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector. 4) Examining the emerging agenda of designing economic inclusion programs to enhance the long-term climate resilience of poor and vulnerable individuals and communities. 5) Featuring three spotlights that unpack emerging evidence from government-led programs, customization strategies targeting youth, and the increasing role of digital tools and technologies in program delivery. Data from the report are available on the PEI Data Portal (www.peiglobal.org).Le Rapport sur l’état de l’inclusion économique (SEI) 2024 explore les efforts visant à intensifier les programmes d’inclusion économique - des ensembles d’interventions coordonnées et multidimensionnelles qui aident les individus, les ménages et les communautés à augmenter durablement leurs revenus et leurs actifs - dans le contexte de crises qui se chevauchent. Ces programmes transforment la vie économique des personnes les plus pauvres et les plus vulnérables, en renforçant leur résilience et en créant des opportunités d’emploi. Le rapport présente des données provenant de 405 programmes dans 88 pays, bénéficiant directement ou indirectement à plus de 70 millions de personnes. Il s’agit d’un quasi-doublement du nombre de programmes et d’une augmentation de près de 50 % de la couverture depuis le rapport SEI 2021. Les gouvernements continuent de jouer un rôle de premier plan dans l’expansion de ces programmes d’inclusion économique, couvrant près des trois quarts des participants au programme. Cependant, les programmes non gouvernementaux ont également contribué de manière significative à l’augmentation de la couverture au cours des dernières années, en plus de servir à la fois de fournisseurs de services et de fournisseurs de renforcement des capacités pour les gouvernements. Le rapport propose cinq contributions importantes : 1) Positionner les programmes d’inclusion économique comme essentiels pour renforcer la résilience et offrir des opportunités d’emploi aux pauvres et aux vulnérables face à des crises qui se chevauchent. 2) Analyser le paysage mondial au cours des trois dernières années, en soulignant dans quelle mesure les programmes d’inclusion économique sont adaptés à divers contextes et groupes, y compris un accent transversal sur le genre. 3) Examiner les progrès et les défis dans la conception et la mise en œuvre des programmes dirigés par le gouvernement, y compris l’interaction avec les communautés, les organisations non gouvernementales et le secteur privé. 4) Examiner le programme émergent de conception de programmes d’inclusion économique pour améliorer la résilience climatique à long terme des personnes et des communautés pauvres et vulnérables. 5) Trois pleins feux sur les données probantes émergentes des programmes gouvernementaux, des stratégies de personnalisation ciblant les jeunes et du rôle croissant des outils et des technologies numériques dans la prestation des programmes. Les données du rapport sont disponibles sur le PEI Data Portal (www.peiglobal.org).En el Informe sobre el estado de la inclusión económica 2024 se analizan los esfuerzos dirigidos a ampliar los programas de inclusión económica —paquetes de intervenciones multidimensionales coordinadas que ayudan a las personas, los hogares y las comunidades a aumentar sus ingresos y activos de manera sostenible— en el contexto de crisis superpuestas. Estos programas transforman la vida económica de las personas más pobres y vulnerables, fortaleciendo su resiliencia y creando oportunidades de empleo. El informe presenta datos de 405 programas en 88 países, que benefician a más de 70 millones de personas, ya sea directa o indirectamente. Esto marca casi el doble en el número de programas y casi un 50 por ciento de aumento en la cobertura desde el informe SEI 2021. Los gobiernos siguen liderando la ampliación de estos programas de inclusión económica, que abarcan a casi tres cuartas partes de los participantes en los programas. Sin embargo, los programas no gubernamentales también han contribuido significativamente al aumento de la cobertura en los últimos años, además de servir como proveedores de servicios y proveedores de desarrollo de capacidades para los gobiernos. El informe ofrece cinco contribuciones importantes: 1) Posicionar los programas de inclusión económica como cruciales para desarrollar la resiliencia y brindar oportunidades de empleo a los pobres y vulnerables frente a crisis superpuestas. 2) Analizar el panorama global de los últimos tres años, destacando el grado en que los programas de inclusión económica se están adaptando a diversos contextos y grupos, incluyendo un enfoque transversal de género. 3) Revisar el progreso y los desafíos en el diseño e implementación de programas liderados por el gobierno, incluida la interacción con las comunidades, las organizaciones no gubernamentales y el sector privado. 4) Examinar la agenda emergente de diseño de programas de inclusión económica para mejorar la resiliencia climática a largo plazo de las personas y comunidades pobres y vulnerables. 5) Con tres puntos destacados que desentrañan la evidencia emergente de los programas liderados por el gobierno, las estrategias de personalización dirigidas a los jóvenes y el papel cada vez mayor de las herramientas y tecnologías digitales en la ejecución de programas. Los datos del informe están disponibles en el Portal de Datos de PEI (www.peiglobal.org)

    Reducing gender-specific commuting barriers in developing countries has complex effects on women’s labor dynamics. The paper studies a program that offers free bus rides for women in several Indian states (the Pink Slip program) using a synthetic difference-in-differences approach to shed light on labor supply and time use decisions of women. It observes decreased bus expenses and time saved on travel. Skilled employed women increase labor supply, while low-skilled married women shift focus to household chores. Unemployed women intensify job searches, yet overall employment rates remain unchanged. The findings highlight that alleviating commuting costs does not uniformly boost women’s labor participation, as gender roles and societal norms continue to shape outcome

    A Commitment to Equity Analysis

    No full text
    Kyrgyzstan is a lower middle-income country in Central Asia, with the population of 6.2 million. How redistributive are the fiscal policies is a question of particular importance to Kyrgyzstan. On the one hand, relatively high budget expenditure and low tax compliance due to the high share of shadow economy lead to fiscal deficits and reliance on external financing. This CEQ analysis sheds light on the redistributive properties of fiscal programs, on their ability to fight poverty and inequality. The purpose of this paper is to apply the Commitment to Equity (CEQ) analysis to the fiscal policy in Kyrgyzstan. The CEQ analysis focuses on the redistribution effects of the taxes and expenditures, with an aim to answer two questions: (1) how much the fiscal policy decreases inequality; and (2) does the fiscal policy increase or decrease povert

    Who did Covid-19 hurt the most in Sub-Saharan Africa ?

    How did the economic crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic impact poor households in Sub-Saharan Africa This paper tackles this question by combining 73 High-Frequency Phone Surveys collected by national governments in 14 countries with older nationally representative surveys containing information on household consumption. In particular, it examines how outcomes differed according to predicted per capita consumption quintiles in the first wave of the survey, and in subsequent waves by households’ predicted per capita consumption. The initial shock affected households throughout the predicted welfare distribution. Households in the bottom 40 percent responded by sharply increasing farming activities between May and July of 2020 and gradually increasing ownership of non-farm enterprises starting in August. This coincided with an improvement in welfare, as measured by a decline in food insecurity and distressed asset sales among these households during the second half of 2020. With respect to education, children in the bottom quintile were 15 percentage points less likely to engage in learning activities than those in the top quintile in the immediate aftermath of the crisis, and the engagement gap between the bottom 40 and top 60 widened in the summer before narrowing in the fall due to large declines in engagement among the top 60. Poorer households were slightly more likely to report receiving public assistance immediately following the shock, and this difference changed little over the course of 2020. The results highlight the widespread impacts of the crisis both on welfare and children’s educational engagement, the importance of agriculture and household non-farm enterprises as safety nets for the poor, and the substantial recovery made by the poorest households in the year following the crisis

    Djibouti Country Climate and Development Report

    The World Bank Group’s Country Climate and Development Reports (CCDRs) are a core diagnostic that integrates climate change and development. They help countries prioritize the most impactful actions that can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and boost adaptation and resilience, while delivering on broader development goals. CCDRs build on data and rigorous research and identify main pathways to reduce GHG emissions and climate vulnerabilities, including the costs and challenges as well as benefits and opportunities from doing so. The reports suggest concrete, priority actions to support the low-carbon, resilient transition. As public documents, CCDRs aim to inform governments, citizens, the private sector and development partners and enable engagements with the development and climate agenda. CCDRs feed into other core Bank Group diagnostics, country engagements and operations, and help attract funding and direct financing for high-impact climate action.Climate change threatens Djibouti’s development goals and without effective adaptation, could generate economic losses equivalent to nearly four years of today’s output by mid-century. Climate change exposes Djibouti to more frequent extreme heat, drought, and floods. These events threaten the infrastructure and services that serve the vibrant trade sector and that could enable a more diversified economy. Other sectors prioritized for diversification, including fisheries, information and communications technology (ICT), and tourism, are also directly impacted by climate change. Unless Djibouti adapts, climate change will also have a particularly negative impact on the livelihoods of the poor, on workers’ productivity, and on water and food security. This Country Climate and Development Report (CCDR) estimates that even a limited set of priority adaptation actions may require 1.1 billion in additional funds, including an additional 77 million per year through 2035. Such investment can be consistent with Djibouti’s goal of achieving both growth and debt sustainability, but it needs to be accompanied by economic reform and additional adaptation resources provided on a concessional basis. International support is particularly warranted given the regional importance of the resilience of Djibouti’s economy

    Which Way Forward? Navigating China's Post-Pandemic Growth Path

    No full text
    Economic activity in China has picked up in 2023, but the recovery remains fragile. Real GDP growth accelerated to 5.2 percent y/y in the first three quarters of 2023, driven by demand for services, resilient manufacturing investment, and public infrastructure stimulus. The initial phase of economic reopening triggered a surge in economic activity in Q1, but growth momentum decelerated rapidly in Q2 before recovering modestly in Q3. The volatile growth performance, compounded by persistent deflationary pressures and still weak consumer confidence, suggests continued fragility in the recovery. China's investment deceleration has been one of the key drivers of the overall growth slowdown in recent years. Together with the decline in aggregate investment growth, there has been a marked shift in the composition of investment. Structural reforms are crucial both to accelerate rebalancing towards higher consumption and to mitigate risks of inefficiencies in capital allocation. Following recent statements by policymakers, a renewed focus on structural reform implementation with specific measures strengthening the rule of law, independent enforcement of regulations, fostering competition, and ensuring a level-playing field could help ensure that resources are allocated to the most productive sectors and firms. Deepening financial sector reform will enhance market-based financial intermediation. Measures to improve the progressivity of the fiscal system, reform the hukou system, and foster inclusive finance will support household consumption growth
