Across the developing world, many girls face difficulties in persuading their parents to enrol them in secondary education.

That's what Pauline Grosjean (University of New South Wales, CEPR) does. She argues that these masculinity norms carry ...
By 2018 the reservoirs supplying Cape Town were down to 20% of capacity. If they reached 13.5%, the city would need to shut down parts of the water network and send residents to collection points to fetch water. That was known as Day Zero, and the rain came just in time to avoid it.
