Generative AI will impact regional local job markets differently across OECD
job markets differently across OECD countries, exacerbating existing urban-rural income and productivity gaps as well as the digital divides between regions, according to a new OECD report. Job Creation and Local Economic Development 2024 finds that, following a decade of employment growth, over half of OECD regions had reached employment rates above 70 per cent by 2023, with more women joining the workforce, narrowing the gender gap in labour force participation in 84 per cent of OECD regions. The employment boom has also led to regional labour shortages and gaps, particularly in densely populated urban regions such as Lombardy (Italy) and Hamburg (Germany), as well as in regions struggling with population decline and ageing.

«I pass on my cautionary tale,» said Lada, as she chain-smoked her way up the bustling square. «At least my ruined life can be useful. I can make a clean breast of it. It's a relief.» Lada is one of six guides for Pragulic, a social enterprise that offers guided tours led by individuals who have experienced homelessness in Prague. Through these tours, Pragulic aims to challenge the myths and stereotypes surrounding street life by allowing those who have lived through it to share their stories directly with the public.

Bangladesh unrest: A look at other student protests that altered history's course
Sheikh Hasina government. Throughout modern history, students have frequently played a pivotal role in regime changes or significant policy shifts. This trend is evident in numerous landmark protests across the globe, illustrating the power and influence of student movements. In the United States during the 1960s and early 1970s, student-led protests against the Vietnam War became iconic. Campuses across America saw teach-ins, sit-ins, and shutdowns to oppose the country's involvement in the war. These actions targeted both the Johnson and Nixon administrations, as well as companies like Dow Chemicals with ties to the conflict. Thousands of students burning their drafts ultimately turned public sentiment against the war, leading to the withdrawal of American troops by 1973. In South Africa, the Soweto Uprising of June 1976 showcased students' resistance against unequal education under Apartheid. Thousands marched in protest, only to be met with armed police, which triggered widespread anti-Apartheid protests and international condemnation of the regime. These demonstrations are credited with setting the stage for the eventual end of Apartheid.
