This study investigates the impact of digital trade on carbon emissions across 27 European Union countries from 2009 to 2023, presenting new insights into the environmental benefits of digital trade. The empirical findings reveal that digital trade significantly reduces emissions by optimizing industrial structure, promoting technological innovation and enhancing human capital. The heterogeneity analysis shows that this reduction effect is more pronounced in Northern, Western and Central Europe, where digital infrastructure and regulatory support may be more robust, and it is also stronger in highly innovative countries compared to less innovative ones. These results underscore the potential of digital trade as a driver of sustainable economic growth, providing valuable insights for policymakers aiming to leverage digitalization to enhance environmental sustainability, align with climate targets and foster a more efficient, low-carbon economy.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47986,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Development","volume":"37 2","pages":"570-583"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143595011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study consolidates data from various sources to gauge the magnitude of this exchange relative to Cuba's GDP and calculates the susceptibility of economic indicators to shifts in sanctions (either easing or tightening) over the past three decades.

By using small-area estimation techniques, the study achieves precise commune-level estimates, addressing the limitations of survey data representativeness. The findings challenge poverty-based targeting, revealing that 17.9% of stunted children belong to non-poor households. Additionally, 21.3% of non-stunted children are found in impoverished households, supporting Sen's argument that malnutrition extends beyond destitution.

Household assets have a significant and positive impact on girls' aspirations for higher education, especially for graduate school, whereas boys' aspirations remain relatively stable across asset levels. We also demonstrate that this positive impact of household assets on girls' educational aspirations is limited to girls with same-sex siblings. Girls with sisters are more likely to report an increase in aspirations for higher education with increasing levels of household assets. Conversely, for girls with brothers, household assets have a negative impact on their aspirations for higher education.

It specifically investigates the direct and indirect effects of radio education on students' learning behaviour and self-efficacy, using survey data of 1654 students at 8 secondary schools in Dedza. Findings from multivariate regression analyses on two major outcome variables reveal that regular listening to radio education significantly enhances students' learning behaviour including class engagement and assignment completion, as well as students' self-efficacy, especially in terms of resilience, positivity and self-confidence. According to mediation analysis, self-efficacy is examined to serve as a partial mediator in the relationship between radio education on student learning behaviour. The results underscore the potential of radio education in boosting academic achievements, by utilising the constructs of self-efficacy to further enhance learning behaviour.
