  • Transmission Risk Assessment Checklist
    Dataset

    By Agriculture and Rural Development Division (VPS/PTI/ARD)
    The series of documents includes general recommendations to minimize the risk of COVID-19 transmission in the tourism sector, as well as specific recommendations for different tourist subsectors and spaces (accommodations, restaurants, local transport, beaches, airports and ports). It also includes recommendations for managing prevention protocols and specific tools to minimize transmission. The series is derived from an evaluation-diagnosis exercise that determined the adequacy of the current biosafety protocols against COVID-19 in a set of tourism subsectors, identifying the main nodes of risk of contagion throughout the service provision process. The series is made up of 10 documents: Reading Guide, R01 General Recommendations, R02.1-R02.5 Specific Recommendations by Subsector (tourist accommodation, restaurants, local transport, beaches, ports and airports), R03 Recommendations for Managing Prevention Protocols, and E02.1-E02.2 Specific Tools to Minimize Transmission.

  • Data associated with: Labor Market Analysis: Employment Demand, Skills, and Training Needs in Bolivia
    Dataset

    By Social Protection and Labor Markets Division (VPS/SCL/SPL)
    This dataset includes data for an analysis of labor demand characteristics and workforce training needs in the metropolitan areas of La Paz-El Alto, Cochabamba, and Santa Cruz—large cities in Bolivia (Related publication only available in Spanish). This information is contrasted with a sample from intermediate and small cities in the country. Labor demand data for large cities comes from a survey of companies conducted in 2015 and 2016, while data for intermediate and small cities is derived from a survey conducted between 2016 and 2017. The document presents key findings on the productive characteristics of cities, company profiles, and workforce dynamics, including recruitment and selection processes, employee turnover, reasons for dismissals, training, demand for and valuation of skills, among other factors. Finally, it outlines policy implications for Bolivia’s labor market.

  • Departmental GDP Data and Regional Inequality Analysis in Peru (1795-2017)
    Dataset

    By Country Department Caribbean Group (VPC/CCB/CCB)
    In this study, we examine the regional income distribution in Peru from 1795 to 2017. To achieve this goal, we reconstructed long-term regional GDP and population series for Peru’s 24 departments. These series allowed us to analyze regional income inequality through dimensions such as inequality, modality, mobility, agglomeration, and convergence. The results indicate a persistent increase in regional inequality in Peru from the second half of the 19th century to the first half of the 20th century. The Gini coefficient, which measures regional inequality, shows a value of 0.2613 for 1795 and 0.3626 for 2017, with the highest value of 0.4283 recorded in 1934. The regional income distribution is bimodal, with no mobility between the extremes. For instance, the probability that a department poor in 1795 remains poor in 2017 is 94%, while the probability of a rich region remaining rich is 95%. However, significant mobility is observed among departments occupying the middle of the...
