“…(45) From the late 1990s, following a series of local government policy reforms, three Dar es Salaam municipalities were conferred responsibility in providing water service. (46) In particular, along with the rapid urbanization process that triggered an uncontrolled development of peri-urban areas, the Tanzanian National Water Policy promoted a decentralization of decision-making with a wider stakeholder engagement in water initiatives. NGOs and community-based entities were invited "to finance, develop and manage the water supply and sewerage service in low-income urban areas".…”

“…Similarly, in Dar es Salaam, the community-based water management practices in southern peri-urban areas are part of a pragmatic approach pursued by the National Water Policy, which contributes to the city's evolution as a complex and fragmented landscape of unconnected networks. (83) Even if social ties are in most cases reinforced through the management of common resources, spatial and social connections with the rest of the city and the surrounding neighbourhoods are limited. Finally, it should be stressed that co-production can also contribute to "micro-fragmentations" within a given area, (84) as in the case of Kinshasa and some areas in Dar es…”

Co-production of water and sanitation services, especially in the global South, implies that recipients of a service play a fundamental role in managing water resources. In the context of citizen-government synergies, service recipients are more than consumers, and (co)-production alters their involvement in the service production process, with respect to their relationships with both the natural resources and the delivery process. Our hypothesis is that a meaningful understanding of coproduction for water and sanitation services is only possible through an interdisciplinary approach that takes into account natural and social dimensions. The objective is to develop a possible new conceptualization of service co-production that can foster a renewed citizenship while taking into account the risks of urban fragmentation.

“…At least some of the high-level skills could be acquired through vocational and work-based learning routes. Similarly, labour market norms and institutions affect the way skills are formed through work experience and rewarded for example during the schoolto-work transition (Pastore, 2015). What matters, therefore, is the quality of graduate labour relative to potential substitutes.…”

Utilising work task data drawn from the OECD's Survey of Adult Skills of 2011Skills of /2012Skills of and 2014Skills of /2015 we derive a new skills-based indicator of graduate jobs, termed ISCO(HE)2008, for thirty-one countries.The indicator generates a plausible distribution of graduate occupations and explains graduates' wages and job satisfaction better than hitherto existing indicators. Unlike with the traditional classifier, several jobs in major group 3 "Technicians and Associate Professionals" require higher education in many countries. Altogether, almost a third of labour is deployed in graduate jobs in the 31 countries, but with large cross-national differences. Industry and establishment-size composition can account for some of the variation. In addition, two indicators of the relative quality of the higher education system also contribute to the variation in the prevalence of graduate jobs across countries.

“…Det finnes flere meta-analyser av arbeidsmarkedstiltak (Card, Kluve & Webe 2010, 2015Kluve 2010). Den generelle konklusjonen fra disse er at tiltak ser ut til å ha liten effekt på sysselsetting, og at tiltak rettet spesielt mot ungdom ser ut til å vaere saerlig lite effektive.…”

Section: Tidligere Forskning Rundt Innsatser For Ungeunclassified

“…Pastore (2015) peker på manglende arbeidserfaring som et av de største hindrene ungdom står overfor på terskelen til arbeidslivet. Han trekker fram to ulike strategier for å bøte på ungdoms manglende erfaring: (1) Et mer fleksibelt arbeidsmarked, med økt bruk av midlertidige ansettelser og reformer som gjør det mindre kostbart å ansette nye arbeidstakere, og (2) et mer fleksibelt utdannings-og opplaeringssystem, med utstrakt bruk av aktive arbeidsmarkedstiltak for å øke kvalifikasjoner og gi relevant arbeidstrening.…”

Kristine von SimsonPh.d. i samfunnsøkonomi, forsker II ved Institutt for samfunnsforskning kvs@samfunnsforskning.no Sammendrag Denne artikkelen ser på effekten av arbeidsmarkedstiltak og vikarbyråarbeid på overgang til jobb og utdanning for arbeidsledig ungdom som ikke har fullført videregående skole. Resultatene viser at alle typer innsatser har en positiv effekt på overgang til jobb og utdanning, men at effektene varierer mellom ulike grupper av ungdom. Mens de yngste ser ut til å ha mindre gevinst av deltakelse på både tiltak og vikarbyråjobb for overgang til jobb, har de langt større gevinst av slik deltakelse når det gjelder overgang til utdanning. Saerlig stor er den positive effekten av arbeidspraksis på overgang til utdanning for de yngste ungdommene.Nøkkelord: arbeidsmarkedstiltak, vikarbyråarbeid, ungdom, skole-jobb-overgang.Abstract: The effect of labor market programs and temporary agency work on the transition to work and education for youth without completed upper secondary education This article examines the effects of active labour market programme participation and temporary agency work on the probability of unemployed youth who have not completed upper secondary education obtaining regular work or returning to education. The results show that all efforts have positive effects, but that they vary between different groups. While the youngest seem to gain less from participation in terms of transitions to work, the effects are much greater for returns to education. Particularly large are the effects of work practice on the return to education for the youngest youth.
