Resumindo, hoje em Angola se és jovem, mulher e vives numa cidade, existe uma grande possibilidade do teu sofrimento económico ser bem maior do que do resto da população! https://t.co/lKs9943kO0

Results show decision makers are not held accountable for withholding information.
This casts doubt on the demand for information presumed by transparency initiatives.

[Fernandes Wanda @fernawan]

Highlights
We study government incentives to join international transparency initiatives.
We present results from a lab experiment conducted in Angola.
We test whether subjects punish decision makers who withhold information.

Great piece by a collaborative team demanding a postponement of the WHO vote. In @mailandguardian.

[Toby Green @toby00green]

I am very much looking forward to this, and grateful to @ASCLeiden for hosting the first debate I am aware of in Western academia on this vital subject.

A hybrid event, too. Looking forward to a proper discussion.

“Mazzucato’s basic idea is that the private sector does not have a monopoly on innovation or dynamism. Most government bureaucracies are too enfeebled or else locked into misguided policy paradigms” https://t.co/Tzrm6vATq3 @JEChalmers @ceda_news @CentrePolicyDev @MazzucatoM

https://t.co/2UwXWtZkBw The crisis in Angola shows yet again, that the current economic model (based on oil) is not fit for purpose. Will the leadership @jlprdeangola adjust the model or attempt to "adjust" the reality?!
