Christensen Sesquicentennial Faculty Fellow. 鈥淲ork on designing educational systems, malaria interventions and clean water initiatives have all been borne of close academic-policy cooperation. Macro-development policy has unfortunately not developed at the same pace 鈥 The goal of the conference is to fill this gap.鈥
The workshop is sponsored by the Cornell Department of Economics, the Institute of Social 麻豆视频 at Cornell University and the Kellogg Institute for International Studies at the University of Notre Dame.
