Increasing employment opportunities

The tipping point: The youth bulge and the sub-Saharan African labor market The demographic dividend has been touted as a potential source of growth for the African continent and its relatively young population. 1 In the same vein, it comes with the challenge of employment creation that can absorb the large cohort of youth that is set to enter sub-Saharan Africa’s labor markets in the approaching decades. Less positively, however, countries that fail to plan accordingly might miss these potential opportunities or the resulting youth bulge could increase the risk of social tension and other risks arising from high youth unemployment rates. The year 2017 offers an opportunity for identifying and implementing policies to capitalize on the segment of the population that is quickly growing up. Arabo Ewinyu Senior Researcher - Development Policy Research Unit Relative to other regions, sub-Saharan Africa’s demographic transition begins from a much lower base and is beset by conflict and death from HIV/AIDS and other diseases resulting in a demographic transition peak that is expected to be much lower than that of other regions (Bloom, Canning, and Sevilla, 2003). Between 1950 and 2010, the global fertility rate has almost halved and is estimated at 2.5 births per woman (Lam and Leibbrandt, 2013). However, sub-Saharan Africa’s fertility rate has declined at a much lower rate and remains relatively high at 5 births (World Bank, 2014). Data from Ethiopia and Nigeria, the continent’...

Reducing poverty and inequality in rural areas: key to inclusive development | DISD

Reducing poverty and inequality in rural areas: key to inclusive development 20 May 2021 Introduction Extreme poverty is mainly a rural phenomenon. Four of every five people below the $1.90-a-day international income poverty line lived in rural areas in 2013 (Castañeda and others, 2018). Over the last decades, however, there has been tremendous progress in reducing rural poverty, partly as a result of successful policies promoting economic opportunities for the rural poor and expanding social protection in rural areas. This progress has not been equitable across the board. The same economic forces that reduce poverty, including rural development and urbanization, can increase inequalities. Moreover, poverty is now rising due to the COVID-19 crisis. All evidence points to increasing inequality as well. The pandemic and subsequent lockdown measures have affected urban areas disproportionately but have had a substantial impact on rural residents. Travel and transport restrictions disrupt the livelihoods of the rural poor, many of whom depend on mobility, seasonal and migrant work and remittances. In some countries, there has been a massive return of migrants to rural areas, largely due to job loss. This policy brief focuses on the linkages between poverty and inequality in rural areas. It illustrates that rural poverty and rural inequalities, although interlinked, follow different dynamics. The brief concludes by discussing policies that promote inclusive development in rural...
