🚨 New publication!
gui2de affiliates and @McCourtSchool faculty @JacobusCilliers and James Habyarimana have a new paper out in the Journal of Development Economics showing how a small, low-cost tweak turned a national education program in Tanzania from one that failed to improve learning into one that succeeded.
Read and paper sciencedirect.com/science/ar… and the authors' @cgdev blog post cgdev.org/blog/24000-text-me….
Thank you to @RwandaICT for hosting our Executive Director Whitney Tate, faculty affilaite Andrew Zeitlin, and Rwanda Country Director @leo_mfura to discuss opportunities for collaboration in Rwanda.
Valuable exchange today with Prof. Andrew Zeitlin & Whitney Tate from @Georgetown's gui2de on harnessing data and emerging technology for smarter planning, evidence-based decision-making, and policy innovation and evaluation.
Better data. Better policy. Better outcomes.

Tuesday I won't give my usual book talk--I'll speak about what international development policy gets wrong, & what the future of conflict & development looks like
Hint: It's all about the over-centralization of power--& rich country donors & diplomacy are part of the problem
