The population of Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is aging and more and more older people will need care and support. At the same time, the supply of care is decreasing. The vast majority of care is provided by women, who experience the negative impact of care on their physical and mental health, and have fewer opportunities to enter the labor market.
The teacher enters the classroom, and the bustle turns to silence. Exams are placed on each desk. The teacher walks to the front, points to the clock above the blackboard and says in a firm voice: “You have exactly 90 minutes to finish the test.

A pesar de que existe un número importante de principios que buscan una IA ética, solo proporcionan una orientación de alto nivel sobre lo que debe o no hacerse en su desarrollo y existe muy poca claridad sobre cuáles son las mejores prácticas para ponerlas en funcionamiento. El objetivo de este manual es proveer recomendaciones y buenas prácticas técnicas con el fin de evitar resultados contrarios (muchas veces inesperados) a los objetivos de los tomadores de decisiones.

This paper studies the impact of online technical education offered to complement regular academic instruction in high school on student schooling outcomes. Using a regression discontinuity design with an oversubscribed large-scale online technical course in Brazil, we find that students who score above the cutoff on the online technical education admission exam are less likely to drop out of high school, while their performance on standardized tests in math and Portuguese is similar to that of students just below the admission exam cutoff.
