dc.description.abstract	Smoking causes about 25% of all deaths in Bangladeshi men aged 25 to 69 years and an average loss of seven years of life per smoker. Without a substantial increase in smoking cessation rates, which are low among Bangladeshi men, smoking-attributable deaths in Bangladesh are likely to increase.	en

Land Delivery Systems in West African Cities : The Example of Bamako, Mali

Durand-Lasserve, Alain; Durand-Lasserve, Maÿlis; Selod, Harris (2015-03-18)

Urban and peri-urban land markets in rapidly expanding West African cities operate within and across different coexisting tenure regimes and involve complex procedures to obtain or make land available for housing. Because a structured framework lacks for the analysis of such systems, this book proposes a systemic approach and applies it to Bamako and its surrounding areas. The framework revolves around the description of land delivery channels: starting from the status of tenure when the land is first placed in circulation for residential use, it identifies the processes whereby tenure can be improved, the types of transactions that take place along the way, and interactions between land delivery channels.

Trust, Voice, and Incentives : Learning from Local Success Stories in Service Delivery in the Middle East and North Africa

Brixi, Hana; Lust, Ellen; Woolcock, Michael (2015-04)

This report examines the role of incentives, trust, and engagement as critical determinants of service delivery performance in MENA countries. Focusing on education and health, the report illustrates how the weak external and internal accountability undermines policy implementation and service delivery performance and how such a cycle of poor performance can be counteracted. Case studies of local success reveal the importance of both formal and informal accountability relationships and the role of local leadership in inspiring and institutionalizing incentives toward better service delivery performance. Enhancing services for MENA citizens requires forging a stronger social contract among public servants, citizens, and service providers while empowering communities and local leaders to find 'best fit' solutions. Learning from the variations within countries, especially the outstanding local successes, can serve as a solid basis for new ideas and inspiration for improving service delivery. Such learning may help the World Bank Group and other donors as well as national and local ...

Afrodescendientes en Latinoamérica : Hacia un marco de inclusión

Freire, German; Diaz-Bonilla, Carolina; Schwartz Orellana, Steven; Soler Lopez, Jorge; Carbonari, Flavia (2018-08-28)

Al menos uno de cada cuatro latinoamericanos se identifica como afrodescendiente. Constituyen una población altamente heterogénea y están distribuidos de forma desigual en la región, pero comparten una larga historia de desplazamiento y exclusión. A pesar de los grandes avances de la década pasada, los afrodescendientes aún están sobrerrepresentados entre los pobres y subrepresentados en las posiciones de toma de decisiones, tanto en el sector público como en el privado. Por esto, la erradicación de la pobreza y la creación de un bienestar sostenido en la región va a depender en gran medida de la inclusión social de los afrodescendientes. Este reporte busca profundizar el conocimiento empírico de las razones detrás de la persistente exclusión de los afrodescendientes, con el fin de desarrollar soluciones apropiadas. El reporte propone un marco para organizar y pensar en la multiplicidad de opciones disponibles para abordar sus situaciones, basado en la experiencia acumulada en la región y la data disponible.
