    This publication is complementary to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe's legal and regulatory work as it presents a comprehensive approach to a cost-benefit analysis of transport infrastructure projects. Its objective is to ensure a broadly comparable basis for alternative infrastructure projects and present them in a way that facilitates review and analysis. It puts the socio-economic cost-benefit analysis in the context of a wider project and investment appraisal, which also covers safety, environment and policy related aspects. In the framework of such concept the wider economic impacts of a project are analyzed, which maybe of particular interest to the local, regional and national governments of the country. Outside of the transport sector, these wide economic impacts are also observed in the labor market, in other production sectors, and in the land and property market.--Publisher's description.

    This paper presents the rationale, the methodology and the results of the application of an innovative social rate of return (SRR) methodology in the context of an investment project (Gaza Solar Power project) financed through the Finance for Jobs (F4J) Series of Projects (SOP) in West Bank and Gaza. A key assumption behind this work is that creating jobs through private sector investment generates benefits above the market returns to the factors of production (capital, labor, and land). Moreover, in instances where the market returns would not be sufficient for the investment to take place because of elevated risks and market failures, these benefits constitute additional social returns that can justify and merit public financing support to enable fundamentally sound commercial investment to proceed and the benefits to be generated. The paper presents the methodology applied through the use of discrete choice experiment (DCE) in a cost-benefit analysis to better approximate a measurable social value to the benefits (jobs-linked externalities) generated by the investment project in Gaza

    This paper develops a general framework to allocate subsidies to private investments in the presence of jobs-linked externalities (JLEs). JLEs emerge when wages exceed the opportunity cost of labor (labor externalities), or when there are social gains from creating better jobs for some classes of worker, such as women or youth (social externalities). Like all externalities, JLEs create a gap between private and social rates of return. Investments can be socially profitable (once the corresponding JLEs are internalized) but the private returns may be too low for the firm to go ahead. JLEs help to explain why many developing countries see insufficient investment in projects that would reallocate labor towards better jobs. The concept of JLEs is well established in economic literature, but there is a need for better operational approaches to address them. Like other externalities, JLEs can be corrected using a variety of possible subsidies (such as: grants, subsidized infrastructure, credit, training, technical assistance and tax exemptions). But doing this efficiently and at scale this requires mechanisms to (a) estimate the value of the externality and (b) discover the amount of subsidy needed to trigger the private investment. This paper shows that the optimal way to allocate subsidies to offset JLEs is through a competitive bidding process which selects projects based on the estimated amount of JLEs per dollar of subsidy. The bidding process provides an incentive to investors to reveal the subsidy needed for a project to become privately viable. The authors show that the proposed approach maximizes the jobs impacts of a given amount of fiscal resources that has been allotted to support better jobs outcomes

    La infraestructura económica es parte esencial del desarrollo económico y social de los países, tanto al interior de los mismos como para la integración física regional. La evaluación de proyectos transnacionales de infraestructura, que involucran a dos o más países, plantea requerimientos técnicos que es preciso revisar, para dotar a los tomadores de decisiones de las herramientas más apropiadas para lograr una evaluación de mejor calidad, que ayude a optimizar la asignación de los recursos y promueva una mayor integración regional.Este estudio evalúa varias metodologías de análisis aplicables a la evaluación de proyectos transnacionales de inversión que resultan de interés común para dos o más países, pero que suelen estar mayoritariamente insertos en el territorio de uno de ellos. Resumen .-- Introducción .-- I. Análisis costo beneficio y su aplicación a proyectos transnacionales de infraestructura .-- II. Aplicación práctica de la evaluación ACB social a un PTI .-- III. Conceptualización de la evaluación de impactode sustentabilidad (EIS) aplicadas a PTIs .-- IV. Reflexiones sobre efectos de la inversión en IP sobre el desarrollo y el crecimiento.
