PROGRAM FEATURES WORLD BANK FELLOWSHIPS
Professional Experience: Fellows will collaborate on projects with World Bank DEC researchers, receiving direct supervision. They’ll undergo training in cutting-edge research practices and technologies, actively participating in World Bank operations. Depending on the project, fellows may contribute to DEC’s published work, co-author with DEC researchers, join field missions, or engage directly with World Bank clients.
Research dissemination: Individuals will be invited to write a blog post based on their fellowship research within DEC. This provides an opportunity to present their research and contribute to discussions on development policy. Annually, the top four blogs will be featured on DEC’s Let’s Talk Development blog.
