From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The 2000s commodities boom spurred a period of high economic growth across Latin America. In Peru, this “super cycle” was primarily driven by a surge in mining exports, which expanded by a factor of 7.5 between 2001 and 2013. This boom has been associated with poverty reduction in mining areas and with the creation of both direct and indirect employment opportunities. However, the quality of these mining-related jobs remains underexplored. In this seminar, Beatriz Jambrina (OPHI Researcher) employs the Alkire-Foster method to map individual employment conditions across Peru, estimating the causal effect of a local expansion of mining on quality of employment.
