We examine the implications of extreme heat on family labor, hired labor, and animal traction. We find differential impacts on these outcomes in Ghana, Nigeria and Mali! Labor-demanding adaptation could explain these findings.

New research by @KibromAbay et al shows that survey respondents in Africa grossly underreport their livestock assets by >40%. Direct counting increases ownership by 39%.

How bad are African statistics?

New blog series!

In the lead-up to the WIDER Development Conference in June, we publish blogs on social protection. In this, @tabe_ojong & Emmanuel Nshakira-Rukundo explore the benefits of a cash plus programme in Ghana. Read here: https://t.co/NYkBJO9b6p

In this paper, we link social protection to the blue economy - particularly small scale fisheries in the framework of a transformative blue social protection agenda.

We highlight and discuss several interesting aspects therein....

Using recent (and rich) data from EORA-MRIO, we characterise GVCs in Africa with stylized facts and confirm the positive GVC-Growth link.

We show that this r/s is driven by trade in commodities, labour intensive goods and knowledge-intensive services.
