Ok, I've spent a weekend putting together my academic website.

Here's a short summary of lessons learnt in case you are planning to set up your own academic website any time soon. #AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter

2/ Github pages combined with Jekyll make it very easy to set up a neat, static website.
pages.github.com
jekyllrb.com
3/ @gaalcaras has put together "Academic" a neat Jekyll theme with a focus on simplicity, typography and flexibility.
github.com/gaalcaras/acad…
4/ Using Jekyll you can rely on Markdown for content production.

A single format for notes, your website, CV, even papers make it very easy to push updates.
5/ You can rely entirely on Markdown for your academic CV using @stevenvmiller's template: svmiller.com/blog/2016/03/s…

I've sumbled over it thanks to @AllbriteAllday linking to it.
6/ Lastly, it can be very helpful to have a friend who's an actual web designer. My shout out goes to @KnowsOnions.

📢 New @DSPI_Oxford #Supertracker release 📣

We (@B_Ebbinghaus, @GunnyKunLee & I) have just launched a major update. Over 200 policy trackers were created since the start of the pandemic documenting measures in nearly all policy domains. An overview👇1/..
supertracker.spi.ox.ac.uk/policy-tracker… Image
2/ Most datasets cover social and employment policy, health and care policy, and non-pharmaceutical interventions. With the new update, the directory also covers areas such as environmental policy, housing, and agricultural policy.
3/ We have also made the Supertracker more user friendly. In addition to policy area, author, country coverage and data type, you can now filter as well by time coverage, provider, source and world region. Time coverage allows you to restrict your search to up-to-date datasets.

Yesterday, I presented on the #COVID19 employment crisis and trade union involvement in tackling the effects at the @ETUI_org to participants from Spain (@UGT_Comunica), Italy (@CislNazionale) & Slovenia(@z_s_s_s). Thanks for the invitation @ValericadD!
My key points 1/..
Employment composition matters for vulnerability to the #COVID19 crisis.

Countries with a higher share of jobs concentrated in industries stronger affected and with a higher share of non-standard employment are generally more vulnerable. oecd.org/economic-outlo…
Employment is affected unevenly across occupations & the wage distribution.

Many low-wage jobs suffer from the negative employment shock, as @RMaria_drc @AnToniPichler et al estimate based on US data. Many positive affected jobs face high infection risks
