dc.description.abstract	Coding bootcamps have recently emerged as a promising approach to equipping individuals with the skills needed to thrive in digital economies. But despite the potential of these training programs to prepare graduates to compete in a changing global labor market, women often participate at significantly lower rates. When women do enroll, they tend to have higher dropout rates than men. The insights in this report draw on interviews with 25 coding bootcamps and 7 digital skills programs in 22 countries. The goal is to share insights and strategies from practitioners around the world on ways to recruit and retain women in coding bootcamps. The report also discusses approaches to making labor market linkages with the larger objective of tackling the underrepresentation of women in technology.	en

Raising the Bar for Productive Cities in Latin America and the Caribbean

Ferreyra, Maria Marta; Roberts, Mark (2018-06-12)

With more than 70 percent of its population living in cities, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is among the most urbanized regions in the world. Yet, although its cities are, on average, more productive than those elsewhere in the world, their productivity lags that of North American and Western European cities. Closing this gap provides LAC with the opportunity to raise living standards and join the ranks of the world’s richest countries. Raising the Bar: Cities and Productivity in Latin America and the Caribbean is about the productivity of cities in LAC and the factors that help to explain its determination. Based on original empirical research, the report documents the high levels of population density and other features of LAC cities that mark them out from those in the rest of the world. The report also studies the role of three key factors – urban form, skills, and access to markets – in determining the productivity of LAC cities. It shows that while excessive congestion forces and inadequate metropolitan coordination seem to be stifling the benefits of agglomeration, ...

Rapport sur le développement dans le monde 2017 : Loi et gouvernance

World Bank Group (2017-01-30)

L’édition 2017 du Rapport sur le développement dans le monde aborde les questions fondamentales suivantes : pourquoi des politiques prometteuses sont-elles souvent conçues sans être adoptées ou mises en œuvre ? Et pour quelles raisons, lorsque ces politiques sont mises en œuvre, échouent-elles souvent à générer les résultats attendus en matière de sécurité, de croissance et de lutte contre les inégalités ? Par ailleurs, pourquoi certaines mesures politiques qui s’avèrent être inefficaces ou mal conçues perdurent-elles?

Doing Business Economy Profile 2016 : Morocco

World Bank Group (2015-10)

This economy profile for Doing Business 2016 presents the 11 Doing Business indicators for Morocco. To allow for useful comparison, the profile also provides data for other selected economies (comparator economies) for each indicator. Doing Business 2016 is the 13th edition in a series of annual reports measuring the regulations that enhance business activity and those that constrain it. Economies are ranked on their ease of doing business; for 2015 Morocco ranks 75. A high ease of doing business ranking means the regulatory environment is more conducive to the starting and operation of a local firm. Doing Business presents quantitative indicators on business regulations and the protection of property rights that can be compared across 189 economies from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and over time. Doing Business sheds light on how easy or difficult it is for a local entrepreneur to open and run a ...
