Integration of the Embree Raycasting Library into a CSG Renderer
… pro vykreslování konstruktivní geometrie těles (CSG) složených ze zvládnutelného množství primitiv pomocí nastavených operací. Je to významná nevýhoda, protože modelování v CSG je intuitivní a výkonný nástroj na popis složité geometrie. V této práci, popisujeme způsob integraci knihovny Embree do …

Cash transfers and child health: understanding the barriers and facilitators to early application and receipt of the child support grant in Langa Township, Cape Town
The Child Support Grant (CSG) is increasingly a social protection instrument of choice aimed at alleviating child poverty and malnutrition in South Africa, with over 13 million children as beneficiaries of the Child Support Grant (CSG). Timely receipt of the grant, within the first three months of …

Is South Africa's social protection system addressing the causes or the symptoms of poverty? : the case of the Child Support Grant
… reduction. Focusing on the Child Support Grant (CSG), empirical analysis is then applied to examine whether the underlying causes of poverty are being addressed. Using the National Income Dynamics Study (NIDS) Wave 1 Dataset, the effects of the CSG on households' expenditure patterns are examined …

A small push goes a long way: An evaluation of the cumulative effects of a cash transfer on South African youth
… South Africa launched the child support grant (CSG) in 1998, an unconditional cash transfer for children below the age of seven. By 2017, the program boasted twelve million beneficiaries, with an upper age limit of eighteen. Globally, initial evaluations of cash transfers (including the CSG) …

A study of state-based social assistance provision and its influence on the developmental character of the South African State: the case of the child support grant
… provision, in the form of Child Support Grant (CSG), influences the character of a developmental state. Social assistance provision is understood to be part of a developmental state response to the needs of its citizens. I have argued in this thesis that CSG influences the characteristics of a …
