Few thought this possible 3 months ago, but it needs others to gamble on peace too. @chrmeyer and I think that one way of doing this is to ensure that the Ethiopian macroeconomy is stabilised, with IMF, WB, US, UK, EU support and G20 DSSI debt relief. 2/2 https://t.co/IxGb9VFlGH

[Stefan Dercon @gamblingondev]

Christian Meyer @chrmeyer and myself in plea not to delay support for macroeconomic reform and stabilisation in Ethiopia by IMF, WB or EU.

Accountability matters but give it the time required. Don’t delay support beyond humanitarian, or peace/stability may be hard to maintain.

[Christian Meyer @chrmeyer]

On the economic cost of Ethiopia's conflict and the large upside of lasting peace -- me in @dw_amharic Thanks for the good conversation @EsheteBekele!

Stefan (@gamblingondev) and I on how the international community should help Ethiopia's peace deal with more support for economic stabilisation

[Foreign Policy @ForeignPolicy]

Deepening macroeconomic crisis will put all the gains toward peace and stability at serious risk.

🗣 OPINION: "Economic incentives for peace must be spearheaded by the international community to support long-term peacebuilding in Ethiopia," write @gamblingondev and @chrmeyer of the University of Oxford.

[Stefan Dercon @gamblingondev]

Let’s increase the upside of the peace deal in Ethiopia for the whole country and its entire population, as a means to help it stick. Worth a gamble now.

Nice to see this short piece coming out just when in Addis Ababa discussing these issues at the highest levels.

Curb Your (Wage) Enthusiasm: How Mentorship Can Shape Career Formation – today's job market post by @livia_alfonsi shows how Ugandan youth have overly optimistic expectations about first jobs and how mentors can help correct this bias https://t.co/4Ayy2VzwIj

[Livia Alfonsi @livia_alfonsi]

My #JMP is on the WB Blog!

Can mentors improve young job seekers' career trajectories? Yes! +27% employed +18%💰

Conversations’ transcripts show why:
⛔️ Job referrals 🔀
⛔️ Search skills 🔍
✅ Correct optimism 🔮
✅ Explain job ladder 🪜
✅ Encourage them while climbing it! 💪🏾

Read our blog about a project we are developing to address the issues of child marriage and school drop out of girls. Let us know your thoughts and suggestions about the intervention and the research.

[Susannah Hares @susannahhares]

Child marriage in Bangladesh is high and things aren’t changing fast enough.

I’m happy to share a new @CGDev p/ship with @BIGD_bracu that aims to reduce child marriage and keep girls in school. With @Marjiepan @leecrawfurd @RadhikaNagesh @kwrahman
