This paper presents the experience of the Republic of Korea in setting up a National Pension Scheme (NPS) and assesses its likely effectiveness in coping with future challenges. The Korean NPS has features of both a pay-as-you-go system, as it does not have adequate reserves to guarantee the promised annuities, and a fully-funded system since payments are regularly made into a pension fund which could then be invested. It also has aspects of both public and private pension systems; public in terms of the management and regulation of its coverage and benefits, and private in terms of its financing where the involvement of the central government is limited to subsiding the operational expenses of the management agency, called the National Pension Corporation. The Korean NPS is likely to face future challenges due to rapid demographic changes such as the increase in the elderly population and the reduction of family size due to low fertility rates. These changes are likely to seriously test the viability of the NPS, the coverage of which seems to have expanded too fast too soon. The paper provides two main lessons for other developing countries: (a) a pension system should be based on accurate financial and demographic projections which affect its long-term sustainability; and (b) it is better to take a gradual approach by starting with a limited coverage, low-benefit package and upgrading it over time in keeping with the performance of the economy.

This Letter to Editor is a supplement to the previously published article in the Journal of Official Statistics . In 2021, a reconstruction method using demographic analysis for assessing the quality and validity of the 2017 census data has been applied, by critically investigating the demographic changes in the intercensal period at national and provincial levels. However, at the time when the article was written, the age and sex structure of the population from the 2017 census had not yet been published, making it hard to fully appreciate the reconstruction of the national and subnational level populations. In the meantime, detailed data have become available and offer the possibility to assess the reconstruction's outcome more in detail. Therefore, this letter aims two-fold: (1) to analyze the quality of the age and sex distribution in the 2017 Population census of Pakistan, and (2) to compare the reconstruction by age and sex to the results of the 2017 population census. Our results reveal that the age and sex structure of the population as estimated by the 2017 census suffer from some irregularities. Our analysis by age and sex reinforces the main conclusion of previous article that the next census in Pakistan should increase in quality with an inbuild post-enumeration survey along with post-census demographic analysis.

Incorporating Gender Concerns in the CBMS: The Case of Barangay Salvacion In the course of its continuing collaboration with the Institute for Social Studies Trust (ISST) in India, the MIMAP-Philippines Project began to incorporate gender concerns in its community-based monitoring system (CBMS) work. Thus, the results of the CBMS surveys of 12 barangays in Puerto Princesa City, where MIMAP-Philippines has been providing technical assistance, provide conventional indicators with gender disaggregation.

Nous sommes en 1944. Alors que les combats meurtriers pour la Libération s'apprêtent à débuter par l'ouverture d'un nouveau front en Normandie, les mouvements de résistance se préparent à intervenir et à soutenir les Alliés. Ces femmes et hommes qui agissent dans l'ombre et derrière les lignes ennemies vont ainsi considérablement contribuer à l'effort de guerre. En Normandie le maquis Surcouf est l'un des plus importants et des mieux organisés de France. Actif dans la région de Pont-Audemer dans le département de l'Eure, il compte parmi ses combattants trois jeunes hommes originaires de Rumelange: Raymond Muller, Gaston Kihn et Arnold Lambert. Cet article se propose de raconter l'histoire du premier qui, grièvement touché lors d'actions contre l'ennemi, mourra de la suite des blessures alors qu'il n'a pas encore 20 ans. Pierre Raymond Muller est né le 22 juillet 1925 à Rumelange. Son père est contremaitre à l'usine à gaz de Kayl et sa mère est femme au foyer. Il est l'ainé de trois enfants et passe ses premières années à Rumelange où il fréquente l'école primaire. Brillant élève doté d'une intelligence hors du commun, il est constamment le premier de la classe. Ses camarades de classe et ses professeurs l'apprécient beaucoup. Tout semble indiquer qu'il passe une enfance heureuse mais un drame va tout bouleverser lorsque sa mère décède alors qu'il n'a que sept ans. En 1934 son père se remarie et la famille déménage à Kayl. Dès sa petite enfance 1 Le lycée exact n'a pas pu être déterminé avec certitude, néanmoins certaines sources citent l'Athénée de Luxembourg qui à l'époque portait le nom de Gymnase de Luxembourg. 2 Le referendum est camouflé sous la forme d'un recensement. Une grande majorité de la population va répondre par «Luxembourgeois» aux trois questions sur la nationalité, la langue maternelle et l'appartenance ethnique allant ainsi à l'encontre des efforts de l'occupant visant une annexion du pays.

Le registre de population centralisé, source de statistiques démographiques en Europe Les registres de population sont moins connus et documentés que les autres systèmes classiques d'informations démographiques (état civil, recensements, enquêtes). Loin d'être universels, ils sont néanmoins présents dans un bon nombre de pays européens. Ils sont toujours tenus au niveau communal, mais l'informatisation du système permet désormais la centralisation des données et la constitution de registres nationaux. Dans cet article de synthèse sur 30 pays d'Europe, Michel Poulain et Anne Herm proposent un bilan comparatif de l'histoire plus ou moins ancienne

El propósito de la presente investigación es estimar el porcentaje de población que no logra adquirir una canasta básica de consumo por distritos y departamentos. Se utilizó información combinada de la Encuesta Integrada de Hogares (EIH) de 199711998 y el Último Censo Nacional de Población y Viviendas (CNPV), así como técnicas econométricas e instrumentos analíticos recientemente desarrollados para este propósito. Las estimaciones tienen, a nivel de distritos, la representatividad de la información censal (de la que carece una encuesta), y parte de la riqueza de datos sobre los niveles de vida de la población que captan las encuestas (lo que no hace un censo). De este modo, la información provista por los mapas de pobreza basados en los ingresos y el consumo de la población pueden servir como herramientas para diseñar políticas eficientes que busquen mejorar la capacidad adquisitiva de los hogares pobres de Paraguay.

The purpose of the study was to identify trends in demographic development and features of the socio-demographic policy of the Republic of Zambia in the context of the demographic transition. The main research method is the statistical analysis of the demographic data of the current registration and population censuses of the Republic. The sources of information are demographic statistics and demographic surveys presented in the materials of national agencies and international organizations of the UN system. Zambia is on the path of the demographic transition, but so far remains one of the youngest countries in the world in terms of the average age of the population. The annual population growth rate remains significant at the level of 2.5-3%. The country maintains a high birth rate. As a large cohort of young people enter their reproductive years, the population of the Republic is expected to double in the next 25 years. The demographic situation may exacerbate some socio-economic ...

From Giorgio Agamben’s postulates, mainly in everything related to homo sacer , we analyzed the instruments used by governmental power in Argentina between 1966 and 1983 to control people, especially children. We used association of geographic military zones and geographic distribution of the repressive facts, the family members of the young high school and college students, union workers and activists. We observed that the political and economic theology supported violence during that period.

The passage of National Health Insurance Scheme to replace the old system (called cash and carry) in Ghana seems to have raised many questions as to whether it has increased the rate at which people attend hospital and abolished cash and carry system. The data collected were hospital attendance for both health insurance and cash and carry system on monthly basis across age groups and gender for 2008-2017, obtained from Cape Coast Teaching Hospital. Chi-Square tests and the Box-Jenkins's methodology of time series analysis were employed to analyse the data. From the findings, the autocorrelation function (ACF) and partial autocorrelation function (PACF) plot suggested an AR process with order 1. Candidate models were obtained using the minimum AIC criteria to select adequate models and appropriate models were obtained as SARIMA (1,0,0) (0,1,0) 12 model for insured (NHIS) and SARIMA (1,1,1) (2,0,1) 12 model for uninsured (Cash and Carry system). Model diagnostics tests were performed using Ljung-Box test. The Chi-square tests inferred dependence in hospital attendance between insured and non-insured patients on gender and the years, In conclusion, insured patients will be increasing throughout the age groups and non-insured patients will be increasing for specific age groups 0-28 days to 15-17 years for the next 24 months. This research recommended among others that education should be given to the general public about the importance of health insurance, it registration and operations especially age group 0-28days to 15-17 years because they seem to continue the use of Cash and Carry System in seeking healthcare regardless of the introduction of NHIS.

It is anticipated that the demand for contraceptives in Iran will increase in the near future as the number of women of reproductive age increases and with women wanting smaller families. The aim of this paper was to study the demand for long-acting and permanent contraceptive methods (LAPCMs), and its determinants, among Kurdish women in Mahabad city, Iran. Data were taken from the Mahabad Fertility Survey (MFS) conducted on a sample of over 700 households in April 2012. The results show that the demand for LAPCMs was 71.35% at the time of survey, although only 27.7% of women were using these methods. Thus, the number of unintended pregnancies is likely to increase in the future if this gap is not reduced. The multivariate analysis showed significant impacts on the dependent variables of the number of children ever born, perceived contraceptive costs and childbearing intentions. Moreover, women at the end of their reproductive lives and those with higher education were more likely to desire LAPCMs. It is concluded that despite a growing use of contraceptive methods in Iran in recent decades, the development of reproductive health services and promotion of the quality of family planning services remains a necessity.

of the historical antecedents which gave rise to present differential urban configurations, before discussing the more immediate factors of urban growth. Approaching the problem from a historical standpoint, three broad groups of Latin American countries can be delineated according to the level, timing and dynamics of their respective urbanization processes. Interpretations of the historical transformations vary and hence the broad trends outlined briefly herein have to be approached with caution. At the outset, it would appear that four countries -Argentina, Chile, Cuba and Uruguay -reached an urban threshold towards the end of the 19th century and into the first quarter of this one. In these countries, urban life began to agglomerate largely as a function of the nature and volume of the prosperity engendered by the external sector. Exports, particularly in Argentina and Uruguay, were heavily weighted towards products which required at least some rudimentary industrial transformation before being shipped out. Hence, urban concentration was based not only on the proliferation of auxiliary tasks appended to the export sector but also on the development of industrial activities and on the formation of a dynamic internal market. In Chile, the de-ruralization of the central region, coupled with the prosperity of mineral exports, improved communications between regions and the shift from export agriculture to interned supply, all favored early urbanization. Cuba had already achieved a high degree of urbanization in the early 19th century, but after a lengthy period of relative virban stagnation, the War of Independence, the inflow of foreign capital and the development of the transport system brought a new surge of city growth at the beginning of this century. /in all 5 " In all of these countries, to a greater or lesser extent, foreign immigration also played an important role in early urbanization. For instance, immigrants made up as much as three~tenths of Argentina's resident population in 1914. Immigration takes on particular importance in this context because the new arrivals tended to concentrate in a restricted number of localities and because it would appear they brought with them levels of skills and aspirations which made them particularly apt to a s s m e innovative roles in the transformation of the economy. The present-day urban configuration of these countries reflects the early urbanization process brought on by a particular economie, political and demographic evolution. As early as 1950, more than twofifths of their collective population lived in localities of 20,000 or more-inhabitants that is, on a level with Europe and with the average for the world's major developed regions at the same period. j / It should be noted that, throughout this presentation, we will be utilizing a definition oX ''urban" based on population size criteria alone; that is "urban" populations are those residing in centres containing at leeist 20,000 inhabitants. Obviously, other lesser concentrations would also qualify as urban were we to possess information permitting a more discriminatory classification of population nuclei according to their economic function, occupational composition or socio-cultwcO. characteristics. In its absence, we are foi'ced to adopt this somewhat arbitrary operational criterion, conscious of the inevitable discrepancies thereby created. In this context, the remainder of the population (i.e., that not living in centres of 20.000 or more) is qualified as "rural" more for the salce of convenience in expression than for accuracy in description. * 4 ,2 5.5 Ü2i¿ 9.2 6 .1 2.9 3 .7 22.0 18.9 *4.2 8.2 *4.3 5 .7 * 41,*4 51.7 9.9 20.5 *4.7 13.2 100,0 38.5 8.3 2*4.1 12.5 ■ 16.6 100.0 72.6 12.6 114.8 100.0 *40.7 8.3 26.0 9.7 15.3 100.0 56.7 6.2 17.0 7.2 12.9 100.0 *42.*4 9.5 21.2 11.9 15.0 100.0 69.2 1*4.2 16,6 100,0 *43.9 7.9 23.1 10.7 114.14 100.0 5*4.0 7.8 15.5 9.3 13.*4 100,0 147.14 7.9 20.5 10.5 13.7 100.0 *41.8 27.8 13.*4 17.0 100.0 * 45.7 10.2 19.8 10"*4 13.9

On the basis of the analyzed demographic data for the last decade of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, one could conclude that the most significant characteristics of the population of Vojvodina are: slow demographic increase; negative population growth; more and more unfavourable age structure; increase in the decision to remain single; relatively low level of urbanization, a very heterogeneous national composition of the population; acceptance of low reproductive norms in the majority of the population; and a very probable depopulation in the future. The discussed demographic features characteristic for Vojvodina as a whole are also present in most of the smaller territorial-administrative units like districts and muinicipalities. Their population is also characterized by the negative population growth, low birthrate and fertility, high general mortality-rate as well as by a very advanced process of demographic ageing.

Sytuacja demograficzna Francji na przełomie XX i XXI wieku-analiza wybranych zagadnień Streszczenie Przedmiotem rozważań w artykule jest potencjał demograficzny Francji na przełomie wieków XX i XXI. Odpowiedź na pytanie badawcze o sytuację demograficzną tego państwa zawiera się w pogłębionym opisie, analizie i ocenie jego zasobów demograficznych w latach 1991-2013, głównie w odniesieniu do części metropolitarnej. Z uwagi na szeroki i złożony zakres przedmiotowej problematyki, w artykule ograniczono się do analizy wybranych aspektów sytuacji demograficznej Francji, uznanych za szczególnie ważne i interesujące. W konsekwencji opracowanie składa się z trzech zasadniczych części, w których kolejno omówiono: bilans ludności i zmiany w strukturze demograficznej mieszkańców państwa, ruch naturalny ludności (urodzenia i płodność oraz umieralność, z wyłączeniem kwestii małżeństw i rozwodów) oraz migracje zagraniczne, z naciskiem na imigrację do Francji. Podsumowując, sytuacja demograficzna Francji jest relatywnie korzystna w porównaniu do innych państw europejskich (m.in. rosnąca ogólna liczba ludności, drugie miejsce w UE pod względem zaludnienia, dodatnie saldo naturalne i saldo migracji, zbliżanie się do granicy prostej zastępowalności pokoleń). Proces starzenia się społeczeństwa jest głównym wyzwaniem demograficznym, we Francji postępuje jednak relatywnie wolniej niż w innych państwach Europy. Z uwagi na swoją sytuację demograficzną Francja realnie wpływa na kształt polityki europejskiej, m.in. w zakresie migracji zagranicznych.

The paper presents an overview of definitions and concepts applied by the United Nations and further describes different concepts and methodologies that are available to quantify and measure disability. It presents findings of an empirical four country (Antigua and Barbuda, Saint Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and Trinidad and Tobago) study using recent census data. The study also looks into the accessibility of assistive devices, living arrangements and social activities of those affected by these ailments.

En este articulo se analizan las caracteristicas sociodemograficas y economicas de los migrantes latinoamericanos y caribenos que envian remesas desde los Estados Unidos a sus paises de origen. El analisis se basa en los datos de la encuesta nacional de latinos 2002 (2002 National Survey of Latinos) y se realiza mediante tecnicas de regresion logistica. Las caracteristicas individuales, la habilidad financiera para hacer envios, las obligaciones familiares en el hogar y en el pais de destino y los vinculos del migrante con su pais de origen tienen repercusiones en el envio de estos recursos. Los resultados del trabajo concuerdan con hallazgos de investigaciones previas con una novedad: la probabilidad de enviar remesas a los paises de origen es mayor entre los migrantes que poseen una cuenta bancaria en el pais de destino que entre los migrantes que no la tienen. Por lo tanto, independientemente de la condicion migratoria, poseer una cuenta bancaria en el pais de destino permite a l...

In this paper the question of within-country heterogeneity in pathways to adulthood is addressed, focusing on the exit from the parental home in the context of the "latest-late" patterns of transition to adulthood. Census data are used to investigate the relative weight that structural-contextual and cultural factors at the provincial as well as municipal levels might have in explaining regional existing differences in the transition to independent living, by applying multilevel logistic regression on the probability of living outside the parental home versus living with parents.

In an increasingly complex society there are a number of different population definitions that can be relevant for users, beyond the standard definition used in counting the population. This article describes the enumeration base for the 2011 Census and how alternative population outputs may be produced. It provides a background as to how the questions on the questionnaire were decided upon and how population bases can be constructed from the Census. Similarities and differences between the information collected across the three UK Censuses (England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland) are discussed. Finally, issues around estimating the population on alternative bases are presented.

We studied searching behaviour of Diomus sp., a coccinellid predator introduced into Africa as a natural enemy of the cassava mealybug, when searching on cassava leaves, and compared its behaviour with the searching behaviour of Exochomus sp., an African predator of mealybugs (MB's). Female adults of Diomus and Exochomus spent more lime searching on cassava leaves previously infested with cassava MB than on clean cassava leaves, in response to substances produced by MB's (wax and/or honeydew) still present on these leaves as kairomones after removal of the MB's. Both species were also arrested by wax and/or honeydew of the citrus mealybug, Planococcus citri. When offered a choice between kairomones of both MB species only experienced Diomus (reared on cassava MB) showed a clear preference for kairomone of cassava MB. Separate influences of wax and honeydew were tested. Wax from cassava MB was an arrestment stimulus for both coccinellid species. Honeydew produced by cassa...

Transfer inflows rise upon retirement and transfers are large and widespread in both surveys, and widowhood, for example, and are positively associated are much larger than public transfers. Private transfers with increases in health expenditures. It also appears that appear to function like means-tested public transfers, private transfer inflows increased for households affected flowing from better-off to worse-off households and by Typhoon Linda, which devastated Vietnam's providing old age support in retirement. Panel evidence southernmost provinces in late 1997. suggests some hysteresis in private transfer patterns, but

The population projection method proposed is a response to the need to specify the maximum population limit in long-range projections. To this end, each stage of the cohort-component method projection uses age and sex structure estimates for the total population projected by the logistic growth model. In addition to analysing the evolution of logistic growth for the total population, the model incorporates the negative trend in mortality and fertility rates described by demographic transition theory. In particular, the direction of the drift used to project specific mortality and fertility rates established in the Lee-Carter model are modified, in line with historical trends and future projections suggested by demographic transition theory.

In this paper, we consider two univariate time series models of predicting the dynamics of the exchange rate (using mid-rate data) of the Ghana cedi to the US dollar over a 10year 2months period from January 2004, to February 2015. We consider out-of-sample forecast for the next three years of the exchange rate. The time series models considered for this objective are the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and the Random walk model. We find modest differences between these two models based on the out-of-sample forecast. Interestingly, both models perform similarly based on forecast values. Forecast values shows that the exchange rate of the Ghana cedi to the American dollar will increase continuously in the next three (3) years.

In 2017, Pakistan implemented a long-awaited population census since the last one conducted in 1998. However, several experts are contesting the validity of the census data at the sub-national level, in the absence of a post-enumeration survey. We propose in this paper to use demographic analysis to assess the quality of the 2017 census at the subnational level, using the 1998 census data and all available intercensal surveys. Applying the cohort-component method of population projection, we subject each six first-level subnational entities for which data are available to estimates regarding the level of fertility, mortality, international, and internal migration. We arrive at similar results as the census at the national level: an estimated 212.4 million compared to 207.7 million counted (2.3% difference). However, we found more variations at the sub-national level.

In 2017, Pakistan implemented a long-awaited population census since the last one conducted in 1998. However, several experts are contesting the validity of the census data at the sub-national level, particularly in the absence of a post-enumeration survey. We propose in this article to use demographic analysis to assess the results of the 2017 census at the sub-national level, using data from the 1998 census, from all available intercensal surveys, including three rounds of Demographic and Health Survey. Applying the cohort-component method of population projection, we subject each five first-level subnational entities to estimates regarding the level of fertility, mortality, international, and internal migration derived from the analysis of the existing data. We arrive at approximately similar results as the census at the national level: an estimated 210 million (95% CI: 203.4-218.9) compared to 207.8 million counted (1.1% difference). However, we found substantial sub-national variations. While there are too many uncertainties in the data used for the reconstruction to be fully confident about them, this analysis should prompt the national and the international community to ensure that a post-enumeration survey and demographic analysis are regular features of census operations of Pakistan in particular, and in developing countries with deficient data as a whole.

Cluster sampling with multiplicity uses the concept of counting rule of multiplicity in order to include in the survey those individuals not belonging to the sample. Additionally, some results to improve the e-ciency and for the variance components from multiplicity estimators of the population total

Centria University of Applied Sciences Date March 2020 Author Chandana Rajopadhyaya Degree programme Business Administration Name of thesis IMPACT OF DEMAND SIDE FINANCING IN MATERNAL HEALTH IN NEPAL. A Study of Safe Motherhood Programme Instructor Pages 34+8 Supervisor Johanna Österberg-Högstedt Demand side financing programme has been implemented in Nepal in order to improve health care service utilization in regards to maternal health. Perinatal health is vital in a woman’s life and hence, health service utilization is vital in this period. Despite this fact, health service utilization during perinatal period is poor. This demands an immediate action such as a demand side financing programme. Given this situation, Aama programme was introduced in Nepal. The term ‘Aama’ means Mothers; meaning that the program is for mothers. The main objective of this study is to assess the impact of Aama programme in Nepal. This study will basically compare the situation of maternal health indica...
