The Department works in three main interlinked areas: it compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data and information on which Member States of the United Nations draw to review common problems and to take stock of policy options; it facilitates the negotiations of Member States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or emerging global challenges; and it advises interested Governments on the ways and means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps build national capacities. www.un.org/development/desa/youth ©UN Photo/Manuel Elias ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The World Youth Report, prepared biennially, is the flag- and outside the Department of Economic and Social Affairs, ship publication on youth issues of the Department in particular Aashish Khullar (United Nations Major Group for of Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations Children and Youth), also benefited the Report.

  • Structural Unemployment in the 2008 Recession Anton A
    Authorized for public release by the FOMC Secretariat on 02/09/2018 Structural Unemployment in the 2008 Recession Anton A. Cheremukhin Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas January 12, 2011 Summary A number of questions have been raised recently regarding the sharp increase in unemployment and slow recovery of jobs throughout the 2008 recession. 1) How much of that unemployment surge is structural, and how much is frictional? 2) Is there mismatch between the demand for and supply of workers across industries? The goal of this memo is to try to answer these questions exploring data on aggregate and sectoral job and worker stocks and ows. To have a clear understanding of the questions, it is useful to de ne the di¤erence between structural and frictional unemployment. Structural unemployment usually refers to unemployment that results from a mismatch between the characteristics of jobs supplied and demanded, while frictional unemployment is thought to be a consequence of mismatch in their quantities1. Frictional unemployment is manifested by high labor supply coexisting with slack demand for work. An indication of structural unemployment would be unusually high unmatched demand for workers coexisting with high labor supply. A standard way to analyze changes in structural unemployment is to look at the Beveridge curve - the relationship between unemployment and vacancy rates (Figure 1). When unemployment is frictional, high labor supply coexists with slack labor demand: times of higher unemployment should be times with lower numbers of vacant jobs. This corresponds to a downward sloping relationship 1 Here I merge the notions of frictional and cyclical unemployment.

  • Prioritizing African Languages: Challenges to Macro-Level Planning for Resourcing and Capacity Building
    Prioritizing African Languages: Challenges to macro-level planning for resourcing and capacity building Tristan M. Purvis Christopher R. Green Gregory K. Iverson University of Maryland Center for Advanced Study of Language Abstract This paper addresses key considerations and challenges involved in the process of prioritizing languages in an area of high linguistic di- versity like Africa alongside other world regions. The paper identifies general considerations that must be taken into account in this process and reviews the placement of African languages on priority lists over the years and across different agencies and organizations. An outline of factors is presented that is used when organizing resources and planning research on African languages that categorizes major or crit- ical languages within a framework that allows for broad coverage of the full linguistic diversity of the continent. Keywords: language prioritization, African languages, capacity building, language diversity, language documentation When building language capacity on an individual or localized level, the question of which languages matter most is relatively less complicated than it is for those planning and providing for language capabilities at the macro level. An American anthropology student working with Sierra Leonean refugees in Forecariah, Guinea, for ex- ample, will likely know how to address and balance needs for lan- guage skills in French, Susu, Krio, and a set of other languages such as Temne and Mandinka. An education official or activist in Mwanza, Tanzania, will be concerned primarily with English, Swahili, and Su- kuma.

  • Creating Sustainable Fisheries Through Trade and Economics Governance and Decision-Making
    Creating sustainable fisheries through trade and economics Paths to Fisheries Subsidies Reform: Creating sustainable fisheries through trade and economics Andrew Rubin1, Eric Bilsky1, Michael Hirshfield1, Oleg Martens2, Zara Currimjee3, Courtney Sakai1, April 2015 1Oceana, Washington, DC, United States; 2Independent researcher, Washington, DC, United States; 3Oceana, Madrid, Spain. This work was supported with a grant from The Rockefeller Foundation. Introduction The world depends on the oceans for food and livelihood. More than a billion people worldwide de- pend on fish as a source of protein, including some of the poorest populations on earth. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the world must produce 70 percent more food to meet coming hunger needs.1 Fishing activities support coastal communities and hundreds of millions of people who depend on fishing for all or part of their income. Of the world’s fishers, more than 95 percent engage in small-scale and artisanal activity and catch nearly the same amount of fish for human consumption as the highly capitalized industrial sector.2 Small-scale and artisanal fishing produces a greater return than industrial operations by unit of input, investment in catch, and number of people employed.3 Today, overfishing and other destructive fishing practices have severely decreased the world’s fish populations. The FAO estimates that 90 percent of marine fisheries worldwide are now overexploited, fully exploited, significantly depleted, or recovering from overexploitation.4 Despite the depleted state of the oceans, many governments provide subsidies to their fishing sectors. Some subsidies support beneficial programs, such as management and research. However, other subsidies drive increased and intensified fishing, such as programs for fuel, boat construction and modernization, equipment, and other operating costs.
