Learning outcomes

The objective of this Laboratory is to learn about the main international financial institutions that provide development aid and examine how they have developed since the Bretton Woods agreements. The overall governance related to decision-making for such institutions will also be presented. A special focus will be dedicated to the role of the European Union in shaping development policies and delivering development outcomes. The scope of the workshop is to ground the theoretical foundations the students receive during their development theory and development economics classes with practical examples of how IFIs work. The student will learn how the main international and bilateral development institutions deliver financing for development, aid, and shape strategies and policies.
