Despite recent setbacks, Brazil has emerged as a significant economic power in the last two decades, combining accelerated growth with falling poverty and inequality. The pro-poor character of economic growth and declining levels of inequality in Brazil over this period stands in marked contrast to the experience of other countries. Based at the Global Development Institute, IRIBA brought together an international team of researchers to ask whether there is a Brazilian model of development, and to investigate the nature and sources of the country’s inclusive growth performance.
Please join us at 12pm on November 25, 2016 in the Ken Kitchen Committee Room, John Owens Building (University of Manchester) as Professors Ed Amann and Armando Barrientos outline the key findings of our research, and their implications for the future. We will be celebrating the launch of a special edition of The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance, which collates the papers produced through IRIBA.
Please register here for tickets and share the event with those who may be interested. Lunch will be served.
