Promoting better policies for better lives in emerging & developing economies. Newsletter: oe.cd/dev-news
À propos
Promoting better policies for better lives in emerging and developing economies is an integral part of the OECD’s mission. It is also an essential contribution to the prosperity and stability of its members. Most OECD departments and special bodies therefore lend their expertise to supporting policy making in partner countries, but only three of them specialise in international development: the OECD Development Co-operation Directorate, the OECD Development Centre, and the Sahel and West Africa Club. The OECD Development cluster works in close co-operation with OECD sectoral committees and directorates. It leverages the Organisation’s assets to support better policies globally, and advance the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The cluster’s combined networks and expertise ensures that this support is directly informed by partner countries’ governments and stakeholders, adapted to their specific challenges and opportunities, and implemented with regional partners.

Did you know that in 2022, 75% of those aged 15 to 24 used the internet, outpacing all other age groups?

On this #YouthDay, let’s highlight the crucial role of youth in digital innovation and pledge to equip all young people with the skills and access they need!

Since 2009, the OECD Development Centre has used the Social Institutions and Gender Index (SIGI) to measure gender norms. Recent 2022 data shows a worrying trend towards more restrictive views: 🔹 35% believe women earning more than their husbands causes problems - up 6 percentage points (p.p.) since 2014 🔹 45% think men should have more job rights when jobs are scarce (up 4 p.p.) 🔹 56% say children suffer when mothers work for pay (up 5 p.p.) Discover how this data can shape campaigns for gender equality in our latest #DevMatters blog🔗https://lnkd.in/eN-RkNNw

The question of what it means to be a "real" man opens up discussions on masculinities—social norms about how men and women should behave, which vary across cultures and times. These norms can either support gender equality or uphold structures that restrict both men's and women's potential. Development communicators can effectively promote gender equality by using emerging data on masculinities, which includes measuring changes in these norms, documenting community stories, and highlighting successful interventions.
