In 2014/15 the West Yorkshire Local Authority Partnership measured the economic impact of the museums in the region using the AIM (Association of independant museums) methodology. The data collected was encapusated in the West Yorkshire Museums: Making a Difference infographic.

The Tajikistan Country Climate and Development Report (CCDR) explores the impact of climate change and global decarbonization on Tajikistan’s development. It identifies key areas to enhance climate resilience and deepen decarbonization and outlines priority recommendations for a successful green transition in Tajikistan, requiring structural reforms, climate-conscious policies, and inclusive strategies for a resilient and sustainable future. Despite economic growth and poverty reduction over the past two decades, Tajikistan's reliance on natural resources and remittances has led to unsustainable development, depleting natural capital and limiting job creation. The government’s green transition plan focuses on renewable energy, promising energy security, economic growth, and regional electricity exports. However, further efforts are needed for a resilient development path, including a complementary reform program to bring significant economic benefits, climate adaptation, and low-carbon development that will benefit Tajikistan and Central Asia's electricity systems. Climate change poses significant risks, threatening water security, agricultural productivity, and infrastructure, potentially reducing GDP per capita by 5-6% by mid-century and pushing 100,000 people into poverty. Additional adaptation measures are crucial, focusing on water management, resilient landscapes, climate-smart agriculture, and disaster risk management. A low-carbon development pathway offers a more resilient and prosperous future, with near net-zero emissions in energy and waste sectors by 2050, boosting economic growth, and job creation and reducing air pollution. Achieving these goals requires substantial investments and institutional reforms to mobilize private capital and attract green foreign investment. Development partners can provide financial assistance, technical expertise, and capacity building.

Technical notes and documentation

This publication contains the databases used in the paper for FORM-EE project (general public and professionals), R analysis script for reproducibility purposes, questionnaires used and formats presented to the target audience (infograhic, text and video for the general public; policy brief and executive summary for professionals).

Aims of FORM-EE project:

Cost-effectiveness analyses of health technologies have become a part of the decision-making process in healthcare policies. Nevertheless, economic results are not always presented in comprehensible formats for non-technical audiences, such as the general population, healthcare professionals or decision-makers. The main objective of the FORM-EE Project was to measure the impact of the format on comprehension of the key messages of an economic evaluation by non-technical audiences. Besides, the perceived usefulness and acceptability of the formats were also explored. The design of the formats reflected the target audience: for the general public, plain language was used in infographic, text and video format, while for professionals from the healthcare sector, more specialized language was used in executive summary and policy brief formats.

BackgroundLow participant recruitment and retention rates are a significant barrier to successful Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs). A Study Within A Trial (SWAT) is an effective way to explore which trial delivery methods may be useful for improving participant recruitment and retention rates. Infographics are a useful information delivery tool that may improve participants’ understanding of the trial and thus improve recruitment or retention rates. This SWAT was embedded within the Behavioural Activation in Social Isolation (BASIL+) RCT. BASIL+ was delivered during the Covid-19 pandemic and evaluated the clinical and cost-effectiveness of a brief psychological intervention (Behavioural Activation) to mitigate depression and loneliness in older adults with multiple long-term health conditions.MethodsTwelve research sites were randomly allocated 1:1 to either the SWAT intervention group (participant information included a one-page infographic) or the SWAT control group (participant information did not include a one-page infographic). The primary outcome was the recruitment rate to the BASIL+ trial. The secondary outcomes were the number of expressions of interest in the trial and the follow-up retention rate at 3 months post-randomisation. Results were compared for each group using a mixed-effect logistic regression model with trial site as a random effect. The cost-effectiveness of the SWAT intervention was also evaluated.ResultsDespite a small additional cost (£0.13) per participant, there was no evidence that participant recruitment, expressions of interest or retention was significantly affected by the inclusion of the one-page infographic.ConclusionOur results suggest that the inclusion of an infographic alongside the participant information sheet may not be the best way to improve recruitment and retention rates for RCTs. However, infographics continue to be effective tools for information delivery in healthcare settings, and further research is needed to explore their use in RCTs.

The value added by the U.S. oil and gas extraction industry amounted to 257.03 billion U.S dollars in 2023. This was a notable decrease from the previous year, but an increase compared to before 2021 which saw a decline in oil product demand due to pandemic-induced lockdowns. Energy supply fears in the wake of the Russia-Ukraine war as well as a return to pre-pandemic level economic activity are partly responsible for the increase in value added noted in 2022. The close connection between 'value added' and crude oil prices The term 'value added' here refers to the difference between the industry's gross output and the cost of production. In the oil and gas industry, the annual value added is majorly influenced by the impact of world market developments on crude oil prices. As these prices underlay market speculation they are especially volatile. For example, the peak in value added recorded in 2022 comes as domestic first purchase prices for crude oil in the U.S. saw a major increase to over 90 U.S. dollars per barrel, benefiting producers in the country. In 2023, the price was nearly 76 U.S. dollars per barrel. Oil and gas industry's contributions to U.S. GDP Producing sectors have historically been a major contributor to the country's gross domestic product. However, as technological advancements have strengthened the service industry, the role of producing sectors declined. In 2023, mining (which includes oil and gas extraction) contributed 380.9 billion U.S. dollars to U.S. coffers. This made it the third smallest contributing just sector ahead of utilities and agriculture.
