2 Why ADePT? Each year World Bank produces: 10-15 poverty assessments 5-10 Labor market studies 10 Education and Health assessments Gender studies Nutritional Studies Reports on Social protection and Benefit-Incidence analysis, etc. Reports produced for different countries or years use similar sets of analytical results (tables/graphs). Significant resources are spent in each report on production of these results. We recognized a possibility to automate this process.

3 Automated Economic Analysis Speed-up production of basic (required) results Free resources for more meaningful and interesting tasks. Easily introduce new techniques and methods Minimize human errors Generate standard, comparable results across the countries/years. Minimize training time Surveys for ADePT

4 ADePT: From data to report

5 ADePT Labor: ADePT Labor: Overview of the Labor Force Table 1.1: broad overview. It will help you: determine if unemployment is a problem to focus on or if quality of employment (low earnings, etc.) should be focus the level of child labor and more As with all tables, you can see changes over time Table 1.3: Where employment is located by type of work You can use designation you like: formal/informal; not just employment type It will also break into ag/non-ag Table 1.4: Welfare status for each worker type - including median earnings, low earnings rates, inequality of earnings, etc. Table 1.5a: Shares of workers by sector Table 1.5b: Share of workers by education (and broken ag/non-ag)

6 ADePT Labor: Poverty and Labor Market Help you identify where poverty is concentrated type of workers & sectors This section uses two ways of calculating outcomes: a) calculate it using individual sector of employment; b) calculate it using the sector of employment of the household head. The Tables in the Annex are used for follow up once an initial investigation reveals an area of interest: They give a disaggregation of main indicators by different groups for unemployment, low earnings, child labor, etc.

7 Stata SPSS Stata Accepts individual- and household-level data in Stata and SPSS format. Uses Stata numerical engine for computations. Minimal data preparation required from the users Extensive diagnostics of possible problems with the data ADePT is a tool for simulations and sensitivity analysis Intuitive user-friendly interface Tested on the datesets from more than 50 countries: LSMS, HBS, DHS Users of ADePT come from the WB, international research institutions, universities, and government agencies. Expected increase in the number of users when new modules are released ADePT V4.0

9 ADePT ADePT Solutions: ADePT ADePT offers users a solution of a particular problem. ADePT Modules of ADePT produce sets of predefined analytical results (tables, graphs) sufficient to give an answer to a particular question. Combination of software tools and the substantive contributions from the leading experts in a field. Martin Ravallion (WB): Poverty Adam Wagstaff (WB): Health Harold Alderman (WB) : Nutrition Two main directions of ADePT: Assessments of the current situation Projections and simulations

10 ADePT ADePT ROI Costs: Zero monetary cost – ADePT is free. Minimal cost in terms of training Localized versions of ADePT lower this cost even more. No change in the standard production function for analytical results. Revenues: Saves at least several weeks of consultant/staff time per module Allows much faster delivery of the reports ~ timely policies, better relations with a client.
