ECONOMY: Is the future exclusively in cities?

Over time, history has shown that cities continue to be perceived as the El Dorado of hope for so many people who, having a difficult life in places far from the big cities, look to them as the remedy for their problems. But is it really in the cities that the solution relies upon? Cátia Batista addresses this topic and explains why there is no single answer because, just like countries, cities, and people are not all the same, circumstances also determine the possible solutions for each one.

Economic policies: should they be tested?

(IN)Pertinente with Cátia Batista: What is the use of implementing economic policies without knowing for sure the population's needs? What is the use of an economic solution if the target audience does not know or can use it? Economic policies must be tested like medicines; and this is one of our Professor's expertises. In this episode, listen to the examples you mentioned by Hugo Van Der Ding and understand how not all "recipes" are used to support the development of populations.
