It is no surprise that #gendergap in land ownership is costly in terms of lost productive output. To address this, #WBGenderLab conducted a study in #Benin 🇧🇯 and the impacts are positive. ow.ly/sBxK30kBRH6

New working paper (with Francis Annan and Uche Ekhator-Mobayode )on the politics and economic burden of epidemics here: researchgate.net/publication/34… Key results: Epidemics reduce economic outcomes in non-epidemic years, effects reversed when World Health Organization (WHO) declares epidemic due to inflow of health aid 1/n

Intimate partner violence is the most common form of violence against women in both conflict and non-conflict settings. blogs.worldbank.org/dev4peace/does… via WBG Dev For Peace

Disease outbreaks hurt child health, but in low-income settings, the World Health Organization (WHO) declaring an epidemic can mitigate that impact by triggering an influx of donor funding. bit.ly/3dC1Ul8 from "The Epidemic Effect," by Belinda Archibong, Francis Annan, & Uche Ekhator-Mobayode

Way to go!!!

Use with caution

It’s been a tough year and I’ve been getting a ton of questions/media requests to explain how epidemics can increase inequalities around race and gender. So re-posting this paper with Francis Annan for reference. We wanted to understand how epidemics affect gender inequality 1/n

Thanks to Pascaline Dupas for hosting an excellent, informative event and it was great to be able to contribute our (Francis Annan and Uche Ekhator-Mobayode) research on epidemics in a discussion with such a fantastic set of African scholars as well

It really is a boon for welfare-enhancing research and policy when local stakeholders are willing to work together with researchers. Fingers crossed and looking forward to working with WAEC NIGERIA on data and research to improve education in Nigeria

ps you can find my written testimony online here: jec.senate.gov/public/_cache/… Thanks to my brilliant Nigerian immigrant mother without whose single-handed sacrifice I would not be where I am today. It was extremely important to me to highlight the experiences of Black women like her
