The initiative called on “competing members of the ruling family and other leading figures” to stop interfering in the election through “political money” and other means that could influence the outcome of the parliamentary polls, allowing them to ensure the success of their “candidates” in the election. The initiative did not provide further details, but there have been increasing accusations that some influential fig- ures, in a bid to influence the outcome of the polls to serve their interests, have pumped millions of dinars into the process. Allegations of vote-buying and other forms of bribery and corruption have been repeatedly made, but very few people have been sent to court over such claims. The group consists of 20 personalities representing vari- ous political schools of thought and includes people like for- mer justice minister and deputy speaker Meshari Al-Anjari, veteran politician and former minister Yousef Al-Nasef, for- mer minister and MP Abdulwahab Al-Haroun, former minis- ter Abdulwahab Al-Wazzan and several other dignitaries.

  • The Joint Data Center's Strategic Advisory Council
    The Joint Data Center’s Strategic Advisory Council Read-out from the second meeting September 11, 2020 The second Strategic Advisory Council of the World Bank-UNHCR Joint Data Center on Forced Displacement was held virtually, on August 27, 2020. It was attended by some 120 participants, including representatives from governments, humanitarian and development organizations, academic institutions, civil society organizations and the private sector1. The primary objectives of the meeting were to seek the Council’s advice and feedback on (1) the Center’s current work program; (2) a JDC strategy for 2021-23;, and (3) its partnering activities2. The day was opened by the Head of Center, Björn Gillsäter and the Chair of the JDC’s Management Committee, Dominique Hyde. Presentations of the Center’s operations, strategy development process, and partnership activities, were given by the Deputy Head of Center, Volker Schimmel, and JDC team members; Jeffery Tanner, Natalia Baal, Felix Schmieding, and Domenico Tabasso. Working group discussions on a zero-draft JDC strategy were held among the constituent groups and were chaired by council members; Oscar Valencia from the Colombian Government, Claus Hansen from UNICEF, Philip Verwimp from Universite libre de Bruxelles, and Alesia O’Connor from DARA. A summary of the discussion and key messages from the Council throughout the day was given by the Head of Center, together with Council member and International Rescue Committee representative Farida Bena, to Dominique Hyde and Xavier Devictor, World Bank. The proceedings were moderated by Caroline Sergeant, JDC. On the JDC work program, Council members noted the progress made since the first Council meeting and congratulated the team for its work, especially in light of the COVID crisis.

    INEQUALITY POLICY MIX TOOLKIT Policy 2.2: ‘Fast Track’ Services for the Rich IMPRESSUM AND AUTHORS Irene Bucelli, Research Officer, Centre for Analysis of Social Exclusion at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Pedro Mendes Loureiro, University Lecturer at the Centre of Latin American Studies and the Department of Politics and International Studies at the University of Cambridge, and Fellow of Fitzwilliam College. Abigail McKnight (project manager and lead research- er), Associate Professorial Research Fellow and Director of the Centre for Analysis of Social Exclusion at the London School of Economics and Political Science INEQUALITY POLICY MIX TOOLKIT – 1. Introduction 3 1. INTRODUCTION This policy review is part of the Inequality Policy Mix Toolkit (IPMT), which has been designed to help users de- velop an informed policy approach to tackling inequalities in low- and middle-income countries. It draws on the Multidi- mensional Inequality Framework (MIF), which is grounded in Amartya Sen’s capability approach and identifies inequal- ities regarding people’s capability to live a good life, one they have reason to value and would choose for themselves (McKnight et al., 2019). Seven key life domains and existing inequalities within these domains are identified by the MIF. This multidimensional approach was used to identify a series of inequality-reduction policies which address key quali- ty-of-life inequalities. In the toolkit, policies are organised according to the seven domains of the MIF and the Sustain- able Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda. In total, the IPMT contains 16 inequality-reduction policies (see next page; clearly this pragmatic list of policies is not exhaustive).
