Can you guess what happened when girls in Zambia were given a bicycle? ... ... ... ▪️ school attendance, test scores, desire to delay marriage/pregnancy, and feelings of control over life/self-image all increased & ▪️ school dropouts went down... ...as a direct result
Every journal acceptance is special, but this one means the world. Our #RCT on girls’ education & bicycle access in Zambia began in 2016. After years of work, 7 rejections, and revisions, it’s finally found a home at @EJ_RES! Grateful to @basit_ak_zafar & two generous referees.

My latest article in @JITP_APSA examines how personalized political information shapes voter decisions. Results show that tailored information strongly boosts electoral participation by clarifying political options yet rarely alters established voting preferences. 1/4

From #Gaza, the cries of parents rise to heaven ever more intensely as they clutch the lifeless bodies of their children, searching for food and shelter from bombs. I renew my appeal to leaders: cease fire, release all hostages, and fully respect international humanitarian law!

For nearly 80 days, Israel blocked the entry of life-saving international aid into Gaza. The entire population is facing the risk of famine. Families are being starved and denied the very basics. All with the world watching in real time.
The population of Gaza must receive the humanitarian aid they desperately need and have the right to receive. Belgium joins the EU and international donors in urging safe, sustained, and unhindered access for relief operations.
Belgium fully supports this joint statement. Humanitarian aid must reach those in need in Gaza, safely, consistently, and without obstruction. There is no time to lose. @BelgiumMFA
🇵🇸 Gaza, la situazione è tragica. Il 60% degli abitanti vive in condizioni di emergenza o catastrofe, il livello peggiore da un anno. Comunque la pensiate sul conflitto, lasciare un'intera popolazione assediata senza cibo e aiuti umanitari è un crimine di guerra.
