(Cont.), and Donaldson, K.M., (2020, December 1) Trends and Gaps in Maternal and Newborn Health Innovations for Impact at Scale. Retrieved from: https://equalizehealth.org/blog/funding-mnh-innovation Introduction Economists have long suggested that innovation offers the potential for public good (Kremer et al 2019), and many actors in global development no longer view it as “nice to have.” Indeed key actors from across the development ecosystem have sought to fund and support innovation as ​ a way to drive greater effectiveness, efficiency, and scalability, and convene and collaborate regularly through initiatives like the International Development Innovation Alliance (IDIA) and ​ ​ the UN Innovation Network . We define innovation here using IDIA’s and USAID’s Development ​ ​ Innovation Ventures’ complementary definitions: “a new solution with the transformative ability to accelerate impact” (IDIA 2020). These “solutions can come in the form of a product, ​ ​ technology, service, or application of a creative business and delivery model” (USAID 2020). ​ ​ Typically data on funding to global health and development innovations has been fragmented and difficult to find.

Abstrakt Das zunehmende Tempo der Globalisierung in den letzten drei Jahrzehnten hat wesentlich zur globalen Vernetzung und Verflechtung beigetragen, was zu einer transnationalen Mobilität von Menschen zwischen den Ländern in verschiedenen Teilen der Welt geführt hat. Eine der Begleiterscheinungen dieser Bewegungen ist der enorme Fluss von Überweisungen, insbesondere von transnationalen Migranten in den Zielländern in ihre Herkunftsländer, was zu einem wachsenden Interesse von Forschern und Entwicklungspraktikern an den Auswirkungen dieser Ströme auf die Entwicklung in den Herkunftsländern führt. Daher konzentrierte sich diese Studie auf die Untersuchung der Auswirkungen dieser Überweisungen auf Haushalte und Familienmitglieder in Benin City, Süd-Süd Nigeria. Die

Childhood Circumstances and Adult Outcomes: Act II Douglas Almond, Janet Currie, and Valentina Duque NBER Working Paper No. 23017 January 2017 JEL No. H4,I14 ABSTRACT That prenatal events can have life-long consequences is now well established. Nevertheless, research on the Fetal Origins Hypothesis is flourishing and has expanded to include the early childhood (postnatal) environment. Why does this literature have a “second act?” We summarize the major themes and contributions driving the empirical literature since our 2011 reviews, and try to interpret the literature in light of an overarching conceptual framework about how human capital is produced early in life.
