Publication Antigua and Barbuda Education Management Information System(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2012-02)Education data in Antigua and Barbuda is collected through both paper and electronic questionnaires. The electronic questionnaires are collected from three secondary schools through the AbusSTAR Education Management Information System (EMIS) software that was developed in Barbados. The Ministry of Education (MOE) has plans to expand the use of the EMIS software to all secondary schools, but currently continues the use of an annual paper data collection questionnaire in the absence of a fully digitized EMIS throughout the country. This report includes the following headings: facilities and equipment, EMIS staff, EMIS data, data collection, data processing, and publications.Publication Saint Kitts and Nevis Education Management Information System(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2012-02)The Education Management Information System (EMIS) in St. Kitts and Nevis is part of the Education Planning Division of the Ministry of Education. It functions in collaboration with the Chief Education Officer and other education officers. Four key objectives of St. Kitts EMIS have been established: collect and analyze educational data; inform policymakers; provide feedback to stakeholders; and monitor and support schools. This report includes the following headings: facilities and equipment, EMIS staff, EMIS data, data collection, data processing, and publications.Publication Saint Lucia Education Management Information System(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2012-02)With the growing demand for timely and accurate data, the Ministry of Education (MOE) in St. Lucia embarked on a project to implement an Education Management Information System (EMIS) for all schools across the island. Due to financial constraints, it was initially implemented in public secondary schools, but has expanded over time to include primary schools and Sir Arthur Lewis Community College. This report includes the following headings: facilities and equipment, EMIS staff, EMIS data, data collection, data processing, and publications.Publication Saint Vincent & The Grenadines Education Management Information System(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2012-02)The aim of the new Education Management Information System (EMIS) in St. Vincent and the Grenadines is to provide accurate and timely information to stakeholders including government departments, educational institutions, and local, regional and international organizations. The Ministry of Education's goal is to establish an EMIS that allows its 67 primary schools and 27 secondary schools to enter their information in real time. EMIS staff includes a deputy education planner and a statistician, but the EMIS primarily relies on school principals to deal with issues of data accuracy and timeliness, improved teacher training, increased inter-agency coordination, improved personnel efficiency, and better data management and protection.Publication The Commonwealth of Dominica Education Management Information System(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2012-02)Dominica is transitioning from a paper-based Education Management Information System (EMIS) to a fully computerized system. The new, fully computerized system will: facilitate information-based planning and decision-making, reduce the costs associated with the paper-based EMIS, provide multipoint access for data users, facilitate easy transmission of data to regional and international agencies, and foster efficient collection, analysis and reporting. This report includes the following headings: facilities and equipment, EMIS staff, EMIS data, data collection, data processing, and publications.

Publication Thailand Monthly Economic Monitor, October 2025(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-10-22)Fiscal conditions remained stable, with a modest widening of the deficit to 3.1 percent of GDP. New stimulus measures are expected to support short-term demand without breaching the public debt ceiling. Inflation stayed negative, reflecting lower energy and food prices amid subdued domestic demand. The central bank kept the policy rate unchanged, citing limited policy space. Thailand’s growth momentum has slowed further as manufacturing activity and services weakened as projected. Tourism remained subdued, largely due to fewer Chinese visitors. Goods exports also slowed as earlier front-loaded orders faded, particularly in agriculture and industrial goods. The Thai baht depreciated in early October as the US dollar appreciated and the current account turned negative.Publication Georgia(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2024-06-17)Tourism is a major driver of Georgia's economic growth and diversification, revenue generated by international visitors amounted to 4.1 billion USD in 2023, making tourism one of the leading industries. However, the sector is far from reaching its full potential. Despite the impressive growth in arrivals experienced since 2009, Georgia relies heavily on visitors from neighboring countries. In 2023, the combined share of Russia, Turkiye, Armenia, and Azerbaijan accounted for sixty-one percent of the total international visitors’ trips, while emerging markets with higher expenditure levels still represent a small percentage of international tourism visitors. Georgia offers natural diversity, from green valleys and seaside to deserts and high mountains of the Greater and Lesser Caucasus, a variety of religious and historical attractions and a rich gastronomy, but only few regions concentrate a higher percentage of visitors - Tbilisi, Adjara and Mtskheta-Mtianeti. Limited connectivity (road access) and other relevant infrastructure and the availability of high-quality experiences and services is hindering the development of other destinations. The objective of this report is to identify key bottlenecks and challenges still affecting tourism sector development in Georgia and provide recommendations to enhance future economic development through sustainable, inclusive, and resilient tourism approaches.Publication Incentives and Investments(World Bank, Washington, DC, 2009-12)This paper analyzes how investment incentives may or may not be used to foster private investment, particularly in developing countries. As practitioners and policymakers can attest, political economy exerts a powerful influence on incentives. Many incentives especially generous ones have persisted because of lobbying by special interests and politicians' need to curry favor. Yet little research has been done on how political economy affects incentive policy. Second, the paper sheds light on the role that political economy plays in the popularity of incentives and the related shortcomings. Incentives are sometimes used to dole out favors to investors, so investors who benefit from incentives resist attempts to eliminate them. This paper suggests a way to tackle such problems. Third, the paper compiles good practices on managing and administering incentives in developing countries, drawing on government and private sector experiences. Finally, the paper provides policymakers with a framework for analyzing the efficacy of investment incentives based on the sector and level of development involved, and suggests reforms for moving toward best practice.Publication Regional Poverty and Inequality Update: Latin America and the Caribbean, October 2025(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2025-10-23)This brief summarizes recent facts related to poverty and inequality in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) using the latest wave of harmonized household surveys from the Socio-Economic Database for LAC (SEDLAC). This brief was produced by the Poverty Global Practice in the LAC Region of the World Bank.Publication Digital Africa(Washington, DC: World Bank, 2023-03-13)All African countries need better and more jobs for their growing populations. "Digital Africa: Technological Transformation for Jobs" shows that broader use of productivity-enhancing, digital technologies by enterprises and households is imperative to generate such jobs, including for lower-skilled people. At the same time, it can support not only countries’ short-term objective of postpandemic economic recovery but also their vision of economic transformation with more inclusive growth. These outcomes are not automatic, however. Mobile internet availability has increased throughout the continent in recent years, but Africa’s uptake gap is the highest in the world. Areas with at least 3G mobile internet service now cover 84 percent of Africa’s population, but only 22 percent uses such services. And the average African business lags in the use of smartphones and computers as well as more sophisticated digital technologies that catalyze further productivity gains. Two issues explain the usage gap: affordability of these new technologies and willingness to use them. For the 40 percent of Africans below the extreme poverty line, mobile data plans alone would cost one-third of their incomes—in addition to the price of access devices, apps, and electricity. Data plans for small- and medium-size businesses are also more expensive than in other regions. Moreover, shortcomings in the quality of internet services—and in the supply of attractive, skills-appropriate apps that promote entrepreneurship and raise earnings—dampen people’s willingness to use them. For those countries already using these technologies, the development payoffs are significant. New empirical studies for this report add to the rapidly growing evidence that mobile internet availability directly raises enterprise productivity, increases jobs, and reduces poverty throughout Africa. To realize these and other benefits more widely, Africa’s countries must implement complementary and mutually reinforcing policies to strengthen both consumers’ ability to pay and willingness to use digital technologies. These interventions must prioritize productive use to generate large numbers of inclusive jobs in a region poised to benefit from a massive, youthful workforce—one projected to become the world’s largest by the end of this century.
