Economic Policy Monitor 2011: Education for Development This second issue of the PIDS Economic Policy Monitor (EPM) focuses on education--the sector`s achievements, direction, priorities, and critical gaps in order to help the government and other education stakeholders craft the necessary education reform agenda. Also in this issue are important policy decisions taken in 2011, both as responses to global and domestic developments and as part of the government`s overall development thrust.
Public-Private Partnership Public-private partnership or PPP is a contractual agreement between the government and private sector that paves the way for the delivery of public infrastructure and/or public services. As a flagship project of the present administration, this agreement must be understood and explored well. This EID presents the different forms of PPP, limitations, and other relevant information regarding this topic.
The Philippine Economy in 2011 and Prospects for 2012 So what`s in store for the Philippines this 2012? Again, PIDS President Josef T. Yap, in his yearly forecast of the economy based on the developments of the previous year, looks at the potential silver lining(s) for the year ahead. Together with PIDS Research Consultant, Dr. Adoracion M. Navarro, he points out the stimulus from the government`s spending to be a factor to bring about a better growth in 2012.
Globalization, Governance, and the Philippine State Globalization highlights the need for public sector reform, good governance, and state capacity building. Thus, this volume highlights the key developmental role of public institutions in creating an enabling environment for economic growth, improved welfare, and sustainable development.
Food Security Food is a fundamental biological need. Everyone must consume a certain amount of food everyday to maintain physical well-being and daily functioning. The state is therefore mandated to ensure adequate supply of food for its people to promote public welfare, social and political stability, and to sustain economic growth. This EID discusses the various interventions the government may take to safeguard food security in the country.
