U.S. Academics' Negotiation Training Program Shows Long-Term Economic Benefits for Young Women in Zambia

U.S. Academics' Negotiation Training Program Shows Long-Term Economic Benefits for Young Women in Zambia

A team of female U.S. academics, including Professor Corinne Low from the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, has been conducting a research project in Zambia for over a decade. This project involves teaching negotiation skills to groups of 12- and 13-year-old girls. The curriculum, delivered over three weeks by local young women, focuses on understanding others' perspectives and collaborative problem-solving rather than adversarial negotiation. Follow-up analysis indicates that girls who participated in these negotiation classes have experienced sustained economic benefits more than ten years later. These benefits include staying in school longer, being more likely to graduate from college, and a reduced likelihood of marrying significantly older men, when compared to a control group that received general empowerment classes without negotiation training.

Mercy Corps Ventures Explores Stablecoins for Post-War Reconstruction in Gaza

Mercy Corps Ventures Explores Stablecoins for Post-War Reconstruction in Gaza

Mercy Corps Ventures, a U.S.-based organization, is exploring the use of dollar-backed stablecoins as a potential solution for post-war reconstruction and financial stability in Gaza. This initiative is part of a broader effort to address the challenges of a fragmented Palestinian economy, where the Israeli shekel is no longer a trusted currency and unregulated cryptocurrency markets are gaining traction. The organization has previously piloted stablecoin programs in Afghanistan and Haiti using USDC, a dollar-backed digital token. The proposed stablecoin for Gaza would aim to provide a reliable and transparent payment mechanism, building on existing financial practices where dollarization is already underway. The plan emphasizes the need for a regulated digital payment instrument with secure channels, identity systems, and safeguards against illicit use, while also considering the political and economic implications for long-term stability and Palestinian financial autonomy.
