The National Foundation for Australia-China Relations is a national platform that works across sectors including business, education and the arts to support risk-informed engagement with China. This week Foundation CEO Gary Cowan held roundtables and meetings with a range of Australian mining, agriculture, education and creative sector leaders in WA with a stake in the relationship with China. Pictured are representatives at our education sector roundtable. Coming just after the visit to Australia of China’s Premier Li Qiang, including his time in Perth, this was an opportune time to discuss Western Australia’s significant relationships with China. Meeting with stakeholders around Australia helps inform the Foundation's priorities. David Parker of Minerals Council of Australia, L.

Often, we attempt to solve a problem and inadvertently create new problems. For example resolving energy issue in Pakistan. The solution for energy issue we found has collapsed whole economic system. While we never intended to cause any damage, our focus on solving one problem – without the ability to understand the ramifications of intervening in the complex system that surrounds it – creates other problems. Our politics, economy, law and order, information regime, railway, police, tax reforms, education, health has met the same fate. Development economics is foundation stone of equal opportunities to all. Successful development both requires and leads to the expansion of human freedom.The freedom-centered perspective means equal opportunities to all for improvement in quality of life. At the heart of freedom approach is the concept of “capabilities,” or the capacity to perform the functions that comprise a good life. Industrial growth can only be optimally used if we have a trained human resource.

Industrial policy | Africa in the age of re-globalisation Rafiq Raji & Amit Jain Nanyang Business School 26 Jan 2024 From an African perspective, we observe two eras of globalisation - An old economy globalisation in which Africa was, at best, a bystander and, at worst, a source of extraction. Then there is the new economy globalisation in which Africa need not merely be a supplier of critical natural resources but also be an active intermediary in the manufacture of finished goods and provider of services. We recommend the following: 1. Aggressively pursue green industrialisation 2. Exercise full sovereignty over digital assets 3. Use single market for collective bargaining https://lnkd.in/e_ScP_c2 # africa tech climate trade economics industrial policy

MSc Candidate at LSE |Chevening Scholar |Economist | Public Policy | Sustainable Development | Youth
I applied to the MSc Development Management at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) because of the Consultancy Project. Students get to work on a consultancy project with multinational organizations with the international development sector. Over the past six months, I was working with Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH alongside my classmates on a topic that is extremely critical for countries faced with the dilemma of pursuing economic growth while mitigating against negative environmental impacts. It was a fantastic experience working on the topic and delving deeper on three case studies; Ghana , Kenya and Morocco ,all with diverse experiences in green transition. I would love to hear your thoughts on whether green industrialisation is a feasible path and what that looks like? And the come back of industrial policy? #greentransition #industrialisation

Recommended read by IfM's friend Ha-Joon Chang and our very own Mateus Labrunie on Timor-Leste's development challenges: ⚪ "Timor-Leste serves as a prime example of the difficulties faced by small island developing states (SIDS) in achieving their development goals. ⚪ Timor-Leste’s situation would be like that of any other small oil-dependent country if it were not for one simple, albeit dramatic, fact: the country’s oil is ending. ⚪ The journey towards diversification may not be easy, but SIDS should not be disheartened... Timor-Leste, in particular, is in a prime position to undergo an economic transition." UNIDO The ASEAN Secretariat Institute for Manufacturing (IfM), University of Cambridge IfM Engage
