Many of the studies on households and people’s welfare dynamics in Uganda have been preoccupied with poverty lines and welfare indices estimation, particularly at the macro level. Little attention has been paid to the impact of livelihood diversification strategies on household welfare and health outcomes (i.e. child nutrition) for both rural and urban dwellers. Thus, this study examines the impact of livelihood (i.e. income) diversification strategies on household welfare and child nutrition. Eight waves of the Uganda National Panel Survey (2005/06–2019/20) dataset collected by the Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) with the support of the World Bank are utilised for this purpose. An instrumental variable approach implemented through a two-stage residual inclusion (2SRI) technique is applied in which alternative correlated random effects (CRE) and fixed effects models are estimated, these two techniques enabled us to address the endogeneity problem associated with livelihood diversification by including a generalised residual among the regressors and also including appropriate list of instruments in the latter. The findings from the study show that indeed diversified households enjoy higher levels of consumption and thus livelihood diversification strategies are welfare-improving. Second, livelihood diversification is also found to improve child nutrition status. By and large, the results point to the fact that households should at least run a diversified means of livelihood since this offers a feasible way of shielding households against risks and also coping and adapting to shocks among rural and urban poor households.

The main objective of this paper is to examine the impact of Sukuk sector development on economic growth. This study focuses on a sample comprising some Sukuk-issuing countries in the MENA and Southeast Asia regions over the period 1995-2015. To address potential problems of endogeneity and simultaneity, we employ the generalized method of moments (GMM) system proposed by Blundell and Bond (1998). The obtained results indicate that the development of the Sukuk market significantly affects economic growth, even after controlling various measures of the financial market development and classical determinants of economic growth. Furthermore, the findings suggest that the financial and service sectors have a greater impact on economic growth compared to other sectors. Additionally, there is a significant difference observed between the various sectors of Sukuk in the two regions.
