  • Multiple Disaster and Debt Sustainability in Small Island
    December 2020 UNCTAD Research Paper No. 55 UNCTAD/SER.RP/2020/14 Anja Slany Multiple disasters and Associate Expert Division for Africa, Least Developed debt sustainability in Countries, and Special Programmes (ALDC), UNCTAD Small Island Developing [email protected] States Abstract Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are the most disaster-prone countries in the world. With an increasing frequency over time, they are regularly hit by severe storms and other disasters, causing on average an annual damage of 2.1 percent of GDP. In the aftermath of disasters, reconstruction efforts require massive financial resources which are often covered through external borrowing. On top, small countries are highly dependent and exposed to economic shocks what results in a massive drop of GDP and exports during global crisis such as COVID-19. In order to provide policy makers with tools to maintain debt sustainability, a better understanding of the options and the complexity between disaster response and debt is required. This paper estimates the impact of multiple disasters on debt sustainability indicators in SIDS over the period 1980 to 2018. Applying a fixed- effects and a Synthetic Control estimator, the results indicate an only weak correlation between a severe natural disaster and external debt what can be related to the restrictions of already highly indebted SIDS to access adequate financing. The paper discusses the implications for financing stronger resilience to disasters in the future and calls for stronger multilateral cooperation and greater flexibility in the accessibility to pre- and post- disaster financial instruments. Key words: Natural disasters, debt, SIDS, panel data © 2020 United Nations 1 UNCTAD Research Paper No.

  • MSA Newsletter 7 | 19 May 2020 1
    A newsletter for Member Schools of Marist Schools Australia published fortnightly during term time From Frank Malloy Dear Colleagues, Kindness, it’s contagious! Early in the first month of the current pandemic appearing in this country, Prime Minister Morrison urged Australians to be kind to one another. The statement seemed remarkable from a Prime Minister, and entirely appropriate. As we navigate the impacts of COVID-19, take pride in our collective efficacy in minimising infections through adherence to the various prescribed measures, and make the necessary careful adjustments to new ways of working and living whilst the virus remains active, the need to be kind to one another is growing rather than diminishing. In difficult times great leaders come to the fore, at all levels of society. This has certainly been the case in our Marist schools, among staff, parents and students. The demands upon parents and students these past months have been extraordinary and rightly teachers and Principals across the country are being hailed as unassuming, national heroes. The speed and agility with which our school communities have responded to the crisis and the many changes it has necessitated is remarkable. Most impressive has been the strategic, purposeful evaluation by teachers of the various off-site learning arrangements and the manner in which new insights are influencing learning and teaching as students return to school. Reports of greater engagement particularly by boys in the coeducational settings have been common, whilst students of a quieter disposition have also featured prominently in positive feedback. Most overwhelming from our schools across the country, is the demonstrable sheer delight of our young people to be together again, learning at school.

  • Guidare I Giovani Ma Talentuosi Compagni Di Reparto
    GUIDA ALL’ASTA ALISSON P 16 POR 15 Dopo la disastrosa figuraccia rimediata nella finale di Champions, il Liverpool aveva bisogno di un portiere del calibro di Alisson. Il brasiliano nella passata stagione ha dimostrato di essere un gran portiere, a volte insuperabile. Tuttavia in questo inizio di stagione non è stato proprio impeccabile. Errori clamorosi dovuti forse alla troppa sicurezza e quel gioco con i piedi al limite dell'estremo, quasi a voler mostrare la propria bravura con gli arti inferiori al resto del mondo, gli stanno decisamente facendo perdere tanti punti. A volte si dice che per essere un gran portiere bisogna avere quel pizzico di follia, in questo caso sembra più stupidità mista a presunzione. Umiltà e semplicità sono alla base di LIVERPOOL tutto. EDERSON P 15 POR 15 Portiere attento, bravo con i piedi ma non sempre impeccabile. Alle volte da l'impressione di poter far di più pur non commettendo strafalcioni clamorosi. Resta comunque uno dei migliori portieri d'Europa, specialmente grazie al gioco di Guardiola che non concede molto possesso palla agli avversari. Per lui lo scorso anno solo 26 le reti subite in Premier, un numero talmente basso che fa quasi paura. MANCHESTER CITY DE GEA P 15 POR 15 Lasciate perdere le indecisioni al Mondiale, lo spagnolo allo United è una vera fortezza. Salva spesso il risultato con parate fuori dal normale, riesce a risultare determinante quanto e più dei suoi attaccanti ed è uno dei pochi portieri a prendere voti sopra il 7 anche senza bonus insomma, se volete una saracinesca, De Gea è quanto di meglio ci possa essere sul mercato.

  • NTS Insight- Humanitarian Assistance in the Asia-Pacific During COVID-19
    NTS Insight, no. IN20-06, August 2020 This insight is part of the centre’s COVID-19 series, looking at current developments in the global pandemic and its future implications for the social, political and economic spheres in the region. Humanitarian Assistance in the Asia-Pacific during COVID-19 By Christopher Chen and Alistair D. B. Cook As the world grapples with the COVID-19 pandemic, the threat of natural hazards still looms large. How will humanitarian response to a major natural hazard Be affected during the COVID-19 pandemic? As the monsoon season Begins in the Asia-Pacific, particularly in the South West Pacific and Southeast Asia, this is a scenario that countries face. The overlapping effects of a pandemic and a natural hazard can compound socio-economic vulneraBilities in countries. While the current focus is on managing the COVID-19 pandemic, governments and communities also need to Be prepared for concurrent natural hazards. This NTS Insight explores the effects of concurrent pandemic-disaster events, and how they threaten states and societies in the Asia-Pacific. This Insight demonstrates the potential challenges of dual crises on societies and vulneraBle populations. It argues that the current situation calls for a Broader and deeper localisation of the humanitarian system, one that places human security as its core organising principle unlike the Backseat it currently takes today. To this end, it argues that inter-regional cooperation can further localisation through the experience of the South West Pacific where human security is articulated as national security and the cooperation in Southeast Asia on disaster response which Builds national capacity.

    A REVIEW OF MEDIA COVERAGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND GLOBAL WARMING IN 2020 SPECIAL ISSUE 2020 MeCCO monitors 120 sources (across newspapers, radio and TV) in 54 countries in seven different regions around the world. MeCCO assembles the data by accessing archives through the Lexis Nexis, Proquest and Factiva databases via the University of Colorado libraries. Media and Climate Change Observatory, University of Colorado Boulder http://mecco.colorado.edu Media and Climate Change Observatory, University of Colorado Boulder 1 MeCCO SPECIAL ISSUE 2020 A Review of Media Coverage of Climate Change and Global Warming in 2020 At the global level, 2020 media attention dropped 23% from 2019. Nonetheless, this level of coverage was still up 34% compared to 2018, 41% higher than 2017, 38% higher than 2016 and still 24% up from 2015. In fact, 2020 ranks second in terms of the amount of coverage of climate change or global warming (behind 2019) since our monitoring began 17 years ago in 2004. Canadian print media coverage – The Toronto Star, National Post and Globe and Mail – and United Kingdom (UK) print media coverage – The Daily Mail & Mail on Sunday, The Guardian & Observer, The Sun & Sunday Sun, The Telegraph & Sunday Telegraph, The Daily Mirror & Sunday Mirror, and The Times & Sunday Times – reached all-time highs in 2020. has been As the year 2020 has drawn to a close, new another vocabularies have pervaded the centers of critical year our consciousness: ‘flattening the curve’, in which systemic racism, ‘pods’, hydroxycholoroquine, 2020climate change and global warming fought ‘social distancing’, quarantines, ‘remote for media attention amid competing interests learning’, essential and front-line workers, in other stories, events and issues around the ‘superspreaders’, P.P.E., ‘doomscrolling’, and globe.
