    Abstract: This paper examines the overall impact of exports while accounting for supply chain linkages on local labor market outcomes in the Arab Republic of Egypt between 2007 and 2018. The paper assesses the effects not only on directly exporting industries, but also on industries indirectly affected by rising export demand. Furthermore, it examines potential impacts on specific groups of workers, such as high-skilled individuals and female workers. The results show that trade does not lead to the same connection with domestic labor markets in Egypt as observed in other countries, as highlighted in the existing literature explaining the adverse effects of imports on developing countries. Despite being more open to trade, trade-intensive industries in Egypt have not experienced a significant increase in their share of employment within the overall workforce. To harness the benefits of trade, Egypt must undertake deeper reforms aimed at significantly expanding the export sector

    Bangladesh Rural Income Diagnostic : Enabling Faster and More Equal Income Growth in Rural Bangladesh (2021)
    Washington, D.C : The World Bank

    Series Statement: Other Social Protection Study
    Keywords: Agriculture ; Cultural Assets for Poverty Reduction ; Poverty and Trade ; Poverty Reduction ; Rural Development ; Rural Poverty Reduction
    Abstract: This Rural Income Diagnostic (RID) aims to answer the question: "What are the main opportunities and constraints to faster, sustained income growth for poor and vulnerable households in rural Bangladesh" This analysis is motivated by recent evidence highlighting the centrality of rural areas for poverty reduction in Bangladesh and the need to update our understanding of rural income dynamics to better inform policy solutions. The objective of the analysis is to inform the World Bank Systematic Country Diagnostic and governmentplanning. The analysis focuses on areas where progress can be made in the next five years, consistent with the country's long-term development path. The focus on short-term priorities to accelerate rural income growth needs to be implemented in a manner that is consistent with, and does not distract from, long-run goals and investments that will have very high future returns, especially for the poor. These include investments in child nutrition, health, and education
