Glad to have spoken at this year’s Arab SMEs Summit organised by @UNESCWA & @QDBQA discussing ways to support entrepreneurship and innovation in #MENA
Territorial #development must move beyond efficiency vs equity.
Vulnerable #regions need place-sensitive strategies to unlock their potential, rather than policies that simply reallocate resources or compesate the losers.
Check our new paper in @RSPP_RSAI.

Interested in how thinking about moving beyond the #efficiency vs. #equitivy debate and overcoming left-behidedness has evolved in the last decade?
Look no further than my new article with @f_bartalucci, @nlginspace & Dávalos, out today in @RSPP_RSAI.

Happy that my article with @rodriguez_pose Susanne Frick @AmeliaSantosP & @RichardBolwijn on African #SEZs is now a top cited article!
SEZs remain a popular development tool in #Africa, but caveats apply and contextual factors determine success.

"...institutional strengthening and improvements in local public goods are needed to transform infrastructure investments into effective regional development..."
Overcoming left-behindedness requires minimum endowments applicable to all regions. Meanwhile, place-specific conditions shape outcomes of dev interventions, meaning that spatially blind policies must be adaptable to the distinct ecosystems where they are implemented.

Regions with higher levels of agricultural output as % of GDP are more vulnerable to the negative impacts of climate policies.
Perceived unfairness of climate policies remains a key risk for the emergence of 'green discontent'.

Parties embracing anti-green instances are on the rise, as shown by the recent #Wilders victory in the NL.
What’s next for the European #greentransition?

New article with @rodriguez_pose
A new form of #discontent—a ‘#green discontent’—is emerging in territories that bear the brunt of the #GreenTransition.
If unchecked, it will erode public support for #climate action and imperil attempts to further decarbonise economies.

Although #vulnerability to the impacts of the #GreenTransition is concentrated in the lower echelons of the regional income distribution, high scores on the Green Transition Vulnerability index can appear at various levels of GDP per capita.

@rodriguez_pose and I took on the task of addressing these issues through a new Green Transition Vulnerability Index.

@rodriguez_pose
Can the green transition take place anywhere? How can we classify its direct and indirect impacts on regions? Will it help reduce inequality?
Potentially detrimental indirect impacts on already vulnerable places may exacerbate green backlash and boost ‘green’ discontent.
Tema cruciale
👇
La transizione ecologica deve accompagnarsi alla giustizia sociale e alla diminuzione delle disuguaglianze.
Altrimenti genera risentimento e resistenza al cambiamento. Con buone ragioni soggettive.
