1. Sustainable public procurement as a tool to foster sustainable development in Costa Rica: challenges and recommendations for policy implementation

   

   Stamm, Andreas / Luise Dietrich / Heike Harling / Laura Häußler / Florian Münch / Jana Preiß / Jan Siebert (2019)

   Costa Rica was the first country in Latin America to approve, in 2015, a National Policy for Sustainable Public Procurement (SPP). Challenges for a swift implementation are manifold. A research team of DIE studied, in 2018, the efforts to make SPP a reality in Costa Rica.

2. Wandel von Sozialpolitik im Kontext von Global Social Governance: das Beispiel Peru

   

   Licht, Nathalie (2019)

   Welchen Einfluss haben aktuell globale Akteure und Policies auf die Sozialpolitik in Nationalstaaten? Am Fallbeispiel Peru wird beleuchtet, wie sich die Muster der Interaktion und Diffusion zwischen Nationalstaaten und externen Akteuren seit dem Washingtoner Consensus radikal veränderten.

3. Policy options for improving drought resilience and its implication for food security: the cases of Ethiopia and Kenya

   

   Duguma, Mesay K. / Michael Brüntrup / Daniel Tsegai (2017)

   Droughts in developing countries have multi-faceted negative implications for the vulnerable population, in particular for food insecurity. Drought policies need to be pro-active, inter-sectorial, adaptable and bottom-up. The study analyses the policies of Ethiopia and Kenya.

4. Spatial development initiatives – potentials, challenges and policy lessons: with a specific outlook for inclusive agrocorridors in Sub-Sahara Africa

   

   Reeg, Caroline (2017)

   Against the rise of agricultural corridor initiatives in Sub-Sahara Africa, this report analyses the potentials and pitfalls of older spatial development initiatives. It shows that spatial approaches are very difficult to get right. Yet, there is potential to learn from the past.

5. Aligning climate change mitigation and sustainable development under the UNFCCC: a critical assessment of the Clean Development Mechanism, the Green Climate Fund and REDD+

   

   Horstmann, Britta / Jonas Hein (2017)

   We argue that the UNFCCC regime does not sufficiently address the risks of negative effects related to mitigation investments. Those who have least contributed to climate change, but are most vulnerable to its impacts, could thus face a double equity gap.

6. Retail FDI liberalisation and the transformation of agrifood value chains in India

   

   Hampel-Milagrosa, Aimée / Hauke Brankamp / Thomas Cremer / Alexander Haddad / Katharina Pannwitz / Franziska Wehinger / Sangeeta Agasty / Tamal Sarkar (2017)

   Waiting to exhale: why is it that the much-awaited Indian retail Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) liberalisation has not attracted its expected deluge of investments? And why is it that this new DIE study recommends proceeding with Indian retail FDI liberalisation nevertheless?

7. Managing coastal ecosystems in the Philippines: what Cash for Work programmes can contribute

   

   Altenburg, Tilman / Cecilia Fischer / Kerstin Huck / Anna Kruip / Sören Müller / Stefanie Sörensen (2017)

   Cash for Work (CfW) programmes can contribute effectively to the sustainable management of natural resources. We show this for fishery management and mangrove reforestation. The study compares CfW with alternative incentives schemes and shows how CfW should be designed to achieve its objective

8. Environmental tax reform in developing, emerging and transition economies

   

   Cottrell, Jacqueline / Kai Schlegelmilch / Matthias Runkel / Alexander Mahler (2016)

   This report highlights lessons on impacts, costs and acceptance learned from environmental tax reforms in industrialised countries, focusing on those most transferable to developing countries, and illustrated with the authors’ practical advisory experience in selected developing countries.

9. Deep preferential trade agreements and upgrading in global value chains: the case of Vietnam

   

   Berger, Axel / Dominique Bruhn / Andrea Bender / Julia Friesen / Katharina Kick / Felix Kullmann / Robert Roßner / Svenja Weyrauch (2016)

   How and to what extent can deep preferential trade agreements support upgrading of companies from developing countries within global value chains? The Transpacific Partnership and the EU-Vietnam agreement provide some new opportunities for Vietnam, but potentials will not materialize automatically.

10. Food security in sub-Saharan Africa: a fresh look on agricultural mechanisation; how adapted financial solutions can make a difference

    

    Ströh de Martínez, Christiane / Marietta Feddersen / Anna Speicher (2016)

    Much of sub-Saharan Africa’s farmland is (still) cultivated with the hand hoe. Mechanisation can help to alleviate food insecurity, but considerable risks are involved. The financing for mechanisation is difficult to access, which is why well-adapted financial solutions need to be designed.
