An Assessment of the World Bank's World Development Report 2013

 

This two-day conference focused on major labor issues in developing countries, contrasting the official approach of the World Bank and member governments with those of independent academic and policy experts. The World Bank team made an official presentation and participated in the discussion. The Center on Global Economic Governance, in collaboration with Cornell University, brought together independent academic and policy experts to discuss the Report and offer alternative views.
