Head of Data Standards & Analytics @Samuel_Hall_ Our research brings the voices of communities to change-makers for more inclusive societies. Also, boardgames.
Istanbul, Addis Ababa, Jalalabad, Amman... @IMCB22 reminds us that refugee hosting cities face challenges, but there are many benefits also. With @IIED@cardiffuni@Samuel_Hall_ organizes participatory fora to seek solutions locally rather than (just) at international conferences
Thank you @iab_news and Lidwina Gundacker. Women more likely to be "lost in translation", those with higher education more likely to be in "slow activation"group. Sequence analysis very promising tool to study integration in Germany... And beyond ?! @IMCB22@Samuel_Hall_
@IMCB22 thank you @PIK_Climate. unsuccessful attempt to model migration flows. Reminds us : 1) publish tales of what didn't work, not just success; 2) dare question "fancy" statistics even if the charts look cool. What data are they based on ? #datastandards@Samuel_Hall_
@IMCB22 it may just be impossible to model migration flows based on the imperfect data we have, according to @PIK_climate. Refreshing to hear about what did not work.with so many models out there, it is legitimate to question "advanced" statistics! #datastandards@Samuel_Hall_
"if you are not receiving, you are probably sending!"but how much, to whom, at what cost? Data needed for more transparency and efficiency. On #FamilyRemittances day, @Samuel_Hall_ are proud to amplify the voices of senders and receivers to inform impactful action.
A multi-stakeholder collaboration for refugees to achieve self-reliance. A global convener, collaborative learning. Sector-shaping knowledge hub. What's not to love? Thrilled to be part of the @RefugeeSRI steering committee, bringing @Samuel_Hall_'s expertise to the discussion!
Integration is hard everywhere. @Samuel_Hall_ we seek to understand what works, in contexts ranging from south Sudan to Jordan. https://t.co/otQmZwMqAA
Looking forward to discussions at @savethechildren Berlin today on child returns. We'll talk about what we know, and what we would need to know in order to inform conscionable programming. Guess which list is longer ? The little we do know is daunting. @Samuel_Hall_
Excited to present our landmark study on the impact of 30 years of mine action in Afghanistan at the #19MSP Meeting of Anti Personnel Mine Ban Convention with @Samuel_Hall_@UNMAS. Results are unequivocal: Mine action must continue to be funded.
@Samuel_Hall_ is proud to be part of @Data4SDGs in the age of the data revolution. We analyze data ranging from focus group transcripts to panel survey data, from children's drawings to satellite imagery... In pursuit of a comprehensive and inclusive picture of reality.
The Global Data Facility is launched! @FuHaishan announces the new financing facility to raise much needed resources. @Data4SDGs is proud to support @WorldBank to raise the ambition on data financing.
= creating an operational structure for girls to connect to each other, trainers, NGOs, from their homes. "Dematerializing" operations while building "nodes" between students and the outside. Harder now but needs to be continued! @nickjross88 @herve_nicolle @forWomanity
Today, on int'l #girlchildday, our thoughts are with the resilient girls of Afghanistan. Two years ago, working with a partner on building a forward-looking strategy for girls in tech in Afgh, we @Samuel_Hall_ recommended moving to a polycentric model...
Ok, here’s what you need to know about the new @WorldBank report on climate and migration. First up - no, this isn’t an estimate of the number of “climate refugees” there are going to be. This is a report about *internal* migration [Thread]

New blog by @stef_barratt, @nickjross88 on the #MigrationDataPortal out now.
Remittances from Afghans are critical for families and the wider economy. Along with so much else in #Afghanistan, there is now uncertainty around this vital flow of finance. https://t.co/SGqeVeEgNg
The international response to events in #Afghanistan must be to build humanitarian corridors & legal routes for people to leave with dignity. Young Afghans cry because they cannot finish their degrees. We need opportunities for more to study abroad – @nassimmajidi @Samuel_Hall_
Check it out, sign up, be in the know ! @IIED@Samuel_Hall_@cardiffuni getting on much needed evidence on what refugees' choice between living in a camp or a city really entails. Wait, did I say choice ? Gathering evidence on that too !
