  • S4 Ep30: Vocational and apprenticeship training in developing countries

    S4 Ep30: Vocational and apprenticeship training in developing countries
    Jul 30 2024
    It makes sense that vocational training and apprenticeships would be an effective way to help young people find productive work in the global south. But evidence to support this reasonable assumption has been weak, and many researchers find little or no effect. Subha Mani and Neha Agarwal have reviewed the evidence, and they tell Tim Phillips that one type of training shows strong results. It’s just not the type that is often implemented.

    S4 Ep29: How do fathers influence early childhood development?
    Jul 24 2024
    Mothers traditionally provide most of the care for children in early years. What role
    do fathers play, what difference would it make if they did more, and how could policy
    incentivise them to do exactly that? David Evans and Pamela Jakiela talk to Tim
    Phillips about the benefit of involving fathers in early childhood development, but
    also how adapting parenting programmes to involve fathers isn’t straightforward.

  • S4 Ep28: Paul Collier: Economics for the left behind

    S4 Ep28: Paul Collier: Economics for the left behind
    Jul 17 2024
    Paul Collier has for many years challenged the conventional wisdom of development
    economics, bringing our attention to the real-world impact of policies many of us take
    for granted. His new book is called Left Behind. It is about how some countries or
    regions in the world fall behind, and what we can do to help them recover. In this
    week’s episode he talks to Tim Phillips about what causes a place to be left behind,
    the difficulty in stopping that downward spiral, and what the places that have
    recovered have in common.
