by Ippei Tsuruga Views: 191

Japan International Cooperation Agency Research Institute (JICA-RI) invited Professor Finn Tarp, Director of UNU-WIDER, to hold a public seminar on “Aid, Growth, Poverty in the Changing Global Market”.

My brief summary and some reflection are already available on my previous post “Is Aid Really Dead?“.

Now, his full lecture is available on You Tube.
