     Haug, Sebastian (2021)

134. What have we learned about learning? Unpacking the relationship between knowledge and organisational change in development agencies

     

     Yanguas, Pablo (2021)
     Discussion Paper, 9/2021

     Development practitioners learn, their organisations not so much. In this paper, Pablo Yanguas finds little evidence for the “learning hypothesis” that knowledge makes development agencies more effective. As we near 2030, the role of M&E, research, and adaptive approaches may need to be reassessed.

135. Social cohesion after armed conflict: a literature review

     

     Fiedler Charlotte / Christopher Rohles (2021)
     Discussion Paper, 7/2021

     This paper brings together 39 academic studies on how armed conflict affects social cohesion. Reviewing the literature shows that conflict mostly harms social cohesion. However, this review also points toward several important caveats as well as blind-spots of the current literature.

     Serraglio, Diogo Andreola (2020)

     Srigiri, Srinivasa Reddy / Ines Dombrowsky (2021)
     Discussion Paper, 2/2021

     Understanding the conditions for coordination in the WEFNexus is key to achieving the 2030Agenda. We provide a framework for analysing nexus governance from a polycentricity perspective, which can be useful in formulating coherent strategies for the integrated implementation of the SDGs.

139. Resilience through placemaking: public spaces in Rotterdam’s climate adaptation approach

     

     Peinhardt, Katherine (2021)
     Discussion Paper, 1/2021

     Public spaces are an often-overlooked opportunity for urban climate adaptation. It is increasingly clear that the unique role of public spaces in civic life positions them to enhance not only physical resilience, but also to enhance the type of social cohesion that helps communities bounce back.

140. Can integrated social protection programmes affect social cohesion? Mixed-methods evidence from Malawi

     

     Burchi, Francesco / Federico Roscioli (2021)
     Discussion Paper, 3/2021

     Using a mixed-method approach we show the impacts of an integrated social protection programme on social cohesion in Malawi. We find no concrete effect of the lump-sum transfer; in contrast, the business training enhances social cohesion especially when accompanied by participation in saving groups.
