This review assesses Chile's public health system, highlights areas of strength and weakness, and makes a number of recommendations for improvement. The review examines Chile's public health system architecture, and how well policies are responding to significant population health challenges including high rates of overweight and obesity, and relatively high smoking rates. In particular, the review assesses Chile's policies designed to tackle obesity and improve healthy diets. The review also examines Chile's cancer screening and prevention system and, finally, looks at how genetic and genomic medicine are being used to strengthen public health and preventive care in Chile.

This report looks at ways to improve the resilience of systems to deal with the unexpected arrival of large inflows of refugees and other vulnerable migrants. It begins with an overview of the recent flows of migrants seeking protection, discusses the expected economic impact of these flows, and notes what has been an unprecedented multilateral response. It then examines the process of integrating refugees and other vulnerable migrants, in terms of their economic and social outcomes, as well as specific factors of vulnerability. It also provides a comprehensive assessment of the transition policies in place to support their livelihood in destination and transit countries, as well as in origin countries upon return. Finally, the report tackles issues of anticipation, monitoring and reacting, examining the role of early warning mechanisms and the challenge of improving information so as to better monitor integration outcomes and frame policies.

This document provides the first outputs of the Review Sharing initiative which OECD has undertaken over the last few years. Review sharing was proposed to more efficiently leverage constrained specialist resources and permit those specialists (generally toxicologists) to pursue more value-added activities such as risk or exposure assessment. An expert group over the course of several meetings defined a process and created the necessary documents to realize the objectives of the project. The expert group reviewed available national checklists and processes to draft and refine Harmonized Standard Review Forms for the studies in scope and develop a Standard Operating Procedure for applicants and government reviewers to follow.

This review of higher education policy in Mexico was requested by the Mexican Ministry of Education to take stock of progress since the last OECD review of the higher education system in Mexico, published in 2008, and to support development of the new government’s National Development Plan and Sectoral Education Programme. 
The report examines the state of the higher education sector in Mexico and analyses key policies implemented by the federal and state governments. It assesses national governance and co-operation structures that help to guide the higher education system, and the relevance of existing national strategies. It also looks at public funding of higher education institutions, how the quality of higher education programmes is assured; and the extent to which the higher education system contributes to equity. The report concludes by exploring two key sectors of higher education: teacher education colleges and professional and technical institutions.   
A companion volume focusing on the labour market relevance and outcomes of higher education is also available: Higher Education in Mexico: Labour Market Relevance and Outcomes.  

This volume collects four studies that were prepared as background research to the 2018 OECD Economic Survey of the United States. Using micro-data survey responses, regional and sectorial data, these studies seek to provide insights into how employment responds to labour market disruption and the drivers of household financial vulnerability in the United States. This volume represents a collaborative effort by a team of OECD and academic researchers.

한국 농업은 변화하는 국내수요를 충족시키고, 경쟁력을 보유한 제조업과의 보조를 맞추도록 생산성을 향상시키며, 국제수준으로 경쟁력을 갖추라는 거센 압력을 받고 있다. 현재까지 정부는 가격지지, 직불금, 세금우대, 투입재 비용감면 등을 통해 농가소득에 대한 광범위한 지원을 제공해왔다. 그러나 이제는 농업부문의 저소득 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 일반 사회보장정책과 농정의 연계가 요구되며, 젊은 세대를 위한 고용기회를 창출하기 위해서는 보다 포괄적인 농촌개발정책이 필요하다.
한국은 풍부하고 독특한 식문화가 반영된 차별적인 농산물과 가공식품의 수출가능성을 모색해야 한다. 이러한 농업부문의 잠재력을 발휘하려면 농업정책은 상업농과 농업법인, 기업 등의 생산성과 지속가능성을 개선하고, 식품가공 분야를 발전시키는 데 초점을 맞추어야 한다. 한국의 농업혁신시스템은 정보통신기술(ICT)의 강력한 경쟁우위를 토대로 보다 통합되고 협력적인 체계로 발전해야 한다.

This paper helps banks and other financial institutions implement the due diligence recommendations of the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises in the context of their corporate lending and underwriting activities. Currently no widely recognized standard on responsible business conduct (RBC) exists for these type of transactions, although they represent a significant portion of client services of commercial banks.

Celem niniejszego dokumentu jest wsparcie banków i innych instytucji finansowych we wdrażaniu rekomendacji należytej staranności zawartych w Wytycznych OECD dla przedsiębiorstw wielonarodowych w kontekście kredytów korporacyjnych oraz gwarantowania emisji papierów wartościowych. Obecnie nie istnieje powszechnie uznany standard odpowiedzialnego prowadzenia działalności biznesowej (responsible business conduct, RBC) dla tego rodzaju transakcji, mimo że stanowią one znaczącą część usług dla klientów banków komercyjnych.

Dieses Dokument unterstützt Banken und andere Finanzinstitutionen, die Due-Dili gence-Empfehlungen der OECD-Leitsätze für multinationale Unternehmen bei ihren Firmen kreditvergaben und Wertpapieremissionen umzusetzen. Derzeit gibt es keinen allgemein anerkannten Standard für verantwortungsvolles unternehmerisches Handeln (responsible business conduct – RBC) für diese Art von Transaktionen, obwohl sie einen wesentlichen Teil der Kundendienstleistungen von Geschäftsbanken ausmachen.

Petty corruption has been gradually declining in Mongolia, but in general corruption is widespread. Anti-corruption laws and action plans are poorly implemented. The Independent Authority Against Corruption (IAAC) has continued and somewhat stepped up its policy coordination and prevention work, however it lacked independence, resources, and necessary support from state bodies to fully exercise its mandate. Mongolia has also made enforcement efforts to address pervasive grand corruption: several high-level officials were convicted and a number of investigations are ongoing.

This is the sixth edition of the OECD survey of large pension funds and public pension reserve funds that collects long-term investment data since it was first published in 2011. The scope of this report covers 87 public and private pension funds from 34 countries. This survey is based on a qualitative questionnaire sent directly to large pension funds and public pension reserve funds. It covers the infrastructure investments made by large pension funds and public pension reserve funds, but also their approach to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors. It provides detailed investment information and insights which complement the aggregated data on portfolio investments gathered by the OECD at a national level through the Global Pension Statistics and Global Insurance Statistics projects.
