The world has made great strides in fighting poverty over the last several decades, much of this driven by economic growth. However, economic growth presents a number of challenges, chief among them how best to make that growth work for everyone, both today and in the future. With this in mind, the World Bank’s Development Impact Evaluation (DIME) group and the Korea Development Institute School of Public Policy and Management (KDI School) are delighted to invite submissions for our 2021 conference, “Sustainable and Inclusive Development: Gender, Energy, and the Environment.” Although the focus of the conference is on promoting works involving impact evaluation, we also welcome submissions from diverse disciplines and traditions. The conference will take place on December 2nd and 3rd in Washington, D.C. While plans are subject to change based on local health conditions, the organizers currently plan on holding the conference in person with virtual options for both presenters and participants.
The organizers are particularly interested in submissions that touch on the following subject areas:
- Poverty
- Development and marginalized communities/groups
- Development and gender
- Sustainability and development
- Environment and climate change
- Energy
Submission details
All submissions must be in English. Full papers should be submitted to odric.rpd@gmail.com by October 22nd.

KDI School of Public Policy and Management
The KDI School of Public Policy and Management was established in 1997 by the Korean government to educate and develop the next generation of leaders in today’s rapidly changing and globalizing economy. KDI School offers innovative programs that focus on policy and international issues. It aims to transform mid-career professionals into leaders in their respective fields by equipping them with new knowledge, vision, and global perspective. KDI school aims to produce experts with a global mindset in the fields of policy, development, and management. It is a premier graduate school in public policy, with its programs accredited by NASPAA, which sets the global standard for public service education.
DIME
The World Bank’s Development Impact Evaluation (DIME) group generates high-quality and operationally relevant data and research to transform development policy, help reduce extreme poverty, and secure shared prosperity. It develops customized data and evidence ecosystems to produce actionable information and recommend specific policy pathways to maximize impact. The work is based on a co-production model aimed at transferring capacity and know-how to partners to make mid-course corrections and scale up successful policy instruments to achieve policy outcomes. These corrections increase the rate of return of underlying investments by large margins, far exceeding the costs of the research. The group conducts research in 60 countries with 200 agencies leveraging a $180M research budget against $18B in development finance. It also provides advisory services to 30 multilateral and bilateral development agencies in the world. Finally, DIME invests in public goods to improve the quality and reproducibility of development research around the world. From DIME Wiki to toolkits, training and summer schools, DIME is servicing the global community of researchers and, in so doing, improving the quality of global policy advice.
