fair enough, my focus was devecon, so i only know that side of him (and boy do I dislike it)

What does it take to spark an #investment miracle? Investment accelerations rarely result from isolated reforms. They stem from comprehensive policy packages that stabilize the macroeconomy, expand openness, and strengthen institutions: wrld.bg/YSgw50YEwMk #DevEcon

#EAC : 𝗧𝘄𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗘𝗔𝗖 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁 1. The dumbbell chart below by @HollyEude tracks real GDP per capita across seven EAC member states, comparing 2005 with 2024 in constant 2015 US$ (World Bank WDI). 2. Each pair of dots and the line between them captures where each country started, where it ended, and the magnitude of the change. The story is one of extreme divergence within the same regional bloc. 3. 𝗥𝘄𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗼𝘂𝘁. Per capita income jumped 140%, more than doubling from roughly $440 to over $1,060. Few African economies have managed a transformation of that scale over twenty years. 4. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆. Somalia ( 69.6%), Tanzania ( 64.8%), Uganda ( 63.2%), and DRC ( 57.6%) all delivered meaningful per capita gains. Somalia's performance, despite the security environment, deserves a closer look. 5. 𝗞𝗲𝗻𝘆𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 but grew "only" 52%. Higher starting base, slower catch-up. The familiar signature of a semi-mature lower-middle-income economy. 6.𝗕𝘂𝗿𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗶 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. Real per capita income rose just 7.1% over twenty years. The average Burundian today is essentially as poor as they were in 2005. The takeaway: - The EAC is no longer one economic story. Rwanda has graduated into a different growth class. - The middle is converging slowly. Burundi has been left almost entirely behind. - In 2005, Rwanda's per capita income was roughly 1.8 times Burundi's. By 2024, it is over 4 times higher. - For a regional integration project built on the premise of shared prosperity, that widening gap is becoming harder to ignore.

Now published. A simple, low-cost info intervention increases parental engagement and improves learning, with heterogeneous effects. Wrapping up my PhD. Keen to build more in applied micro and policy work (don't hesitate to hit me up). #EconTwitter #EconJobMarket #DevEcon #RCT
