OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
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.
