World Development Report 2015: Mind, Society, and Behavior

The German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) cordially invites you to a public brown bag lunch with Ryan Muldoon, member of the Core Team of the 2015 World Development Report, and Senior Research Fellow in the Philosophy, Politics and Economics program at the University of Pennsylvania.

The World Development Report 2015, presented by Ryan Muldoon, member of the Core Team of the 2015 World Development Report, and Senior Research Fellow in the Philosophy, Politics and Economics program at the University of Pennsylvania, examines early, exciting work that suggests ways of diagnosing and solving psychological, cognitive and social constraints to development. The report argues that development policies based on these new insights will help governments and civil society achieve development goals more effectively.

Aurelia Figueroa, researcher at the German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) will discuss the report’s messages and relate them to the findings of recent DIE research on behavior and energy efficiency in developing countries.
