    Abstract: Stagnant global trade, subdued investment, and heightened policy uncertainty marked another difficult year for the world economy. A moderate recovery is expected for 2017, with receding obstacles to activity in commodity-exporting emerging market and developing economies. Weak investment is weighing on medium-term prospects across many emerging market and developing economies. Although fiscal stimulus in major economies, if implemented, may boost global growth above expectations, risks to growth forecasts remain tilted to the downside. Important downside risks stem from heightened policy uncertainty in major economies. In addition to discussing global and regional economic developments and prospects, this edition of Global Economic Prospects includes a chapter on the causes, consequences and policy implications of weak investment in emerging markets and developing economies, and a special focus on the role of the U.S. economy in the world. Global Economic Prospects is a World Bank Group Flagship Report that examines global economic developments and prospects, with a special focus on emerging market and developing countries, on a semiannual basis (in January and June). The January edition includes in-depth analyses of topical policy challenges faced by these economies, while the June edition contains shorter analytical pieces

    Abstract: Global growth prospects have deteriorated in 2016. Emerging market and developing economies are facing increased external headwinds, including softer growth in advanced economies. Commodity exporters are struggling with particularly challenging conditions, while commodity importers are thus far showing greater resilience. Global growth is expected to gradually accelerate in 2017-18 but risks to the outlook are increasingly more pronounced. In addition to discussing global and regional economic developments and prospects, this edition of Global Economic Prospects includes two Special Focus essays of critical importance for emerging and developing economies: an analysis of the buildup of private debt in emerging and frontier markets and a quantitative study of uncertainties surrounding global growth. This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Global Economic Prospects. The Global Economic Prospects is a World Bank Group Flagship Report that has, since its inception in 1991, examined international economic developments and prospects, with a special focus on emerging market and developing economies. It has also included analytical essays on a wide range of topical macroeconomic, financial, and structural policy challenges faced by these economies. It is published on a semiannual basis (in January and June). The January edition includes in-depth analyses of topical policy challenges, while the June edition contains shorter analytical essays

    Abstract: Que estan aprendiendo los estudiantes? En todo el mundo, los gobiernos que se esfuerzan por mejorar la calidad de la educacion estan recurriendo a las evaluaciones nacionales como fuente de esta informacion que tan necesaria es en las areas curriculares clave. La capacidad de llevar a cabo evaluaciones nacionales ha crecido notablemente en los ultimos anos, pero no se ha reflejado en un uso generalizado de sus resultados. Este libro pretende potenciar la apreciacion del valor de tales datos y ayudar a los paises a explotar el conocimiento que ofrecen las evaluaciones nacionales. Utilizacion de los resultados de una evaluacion nacional del rendimiento academico expone los principales factores que afectan a la utilizacion de los resultados de una evaluacion nacional, a saber: el contexto politico en que se lleva a cabo la evaluacion, la naturaleza de la evaluacion (censal o basada en una muestra), la asignacion de responsabilidades frente a los resultados y la calidad de los instrumentos de evaluacion. El libro describe el tipo de informacion que deberia contener el informe principal de una evaluacion nacional, asi como otros medios de comunicar los resultados a publicos tecnicos y no tecnicos. Expone consideraciones genericas sobre como traducir los resultados de las evaluaciones nacionales en politicas e intervenciones, y examina procedimientos especificos para utilizar los datos en la formulacion de politicas, la gestion educativa, la ensenanza y la sensibilizacion publica. Los temas tratados en este volumen resultaran de interes para los responsables politicos, los educadores, los investigadores y los profesionales del desarrollo

    Abstract: Global growth is expected to be 2.8 percent in 2015, but is expected to pick up to 3.2 percent in 2016-17. Growth in developing countries and some high-income countries is set to disappoint again this year. The prospect of rising borrowing costs will compound the challenges many developing countries are facing as they adapt to an era of low commodity prices. Risks to this outlook remain tilted to the downside. This edition of Global Economic Prospects includes two Special Features that analyze the policy challenges raised by the two transitions in developing countries: the risks associated with the first U.S. central bank interest rate increase since 2006 and the implications of persistently low commodity prices for low-income countries. Global Economic Prospects is a World Bank Group Flagship Report that examines global economic developments and prospects, with a special focus on developing countries, on a semiannual basis (in January and June). The January edition includes in-depth analyses of topical policy challenges faced by developing countries while the June edition contains shorter analytical pieces

    Abstract: La CSU a pour objectifs de s'assurer que tous peuvent avoir acces a des services de sante de qualite, de preserver l'ensemble des individus contre les risques a la sante publique et de proteger toutes les personnes contre l'appauvrissement attribuable a la maladie. Des pays aussi divers que le Bresil, la France, le Japon, la Thailande et la Turquie ont reussi a mettre en cuvre la CSU et illustrent comment ces programmes peuvent a la fois agir en tant que dispositifs essentiels d'amelioration de la sante et du bien-etre de leurs citoyens et mettre en place les fondations d'une croissance economique basee sur des principes d'equite et de durabilite. L'assurance d'un acces universel a des services de sante abordables et de qualite contribuera de facon importante a l'eradication de la pauvrete extreme en 2030 et a la stimulation d'une prosperite partagee dans les pays a revenu faible et intermediaire, ou vit la majorite de la population pauvre mondiale. 'La couverture sanitaire universelle pour un developpement durable inclusif' synthetise les experiences de 11 pays Bangladesh, Bresil, Ethiopie, France, Ghana, Indonesie, Japon, Perou, Thailande, Turquie et Vietnam dans la mise en cuvre de politiques et de strategies d'atteinte et de maintien de la CSU. Tous ces pays se sont engages envers l'atteinte de la CSU, consideree comme une aspiration nationale cle, mais ont adopte a cet effet des approches distinctes. L'ouvrage examine les politiques de CSU de chaque pays a partir de 3 themes communs : (1) l'economie politique et le processus politique d'adoption, d'atteinte et de maintien de la CSU; (2) les politiques financieres d'amelioration de la couverture sanitaire; et (3) les ressources humaines en sante au service des politiques d'atteinte de la CSU. Les constats tires de ces etudes pays sont une source d'enseignements auxquels peuvent faire reference les pays qui aspirent a l'adoption, a l'atteinte et au maintien de la CSU. Meme si la voie vers la CSU reste specifique a chaque pays, tous peuvent profiter des experiences des autres en apprenant des differentes approches et en evitant les risques potentiels
