Yesterday former World Bank Vice President Jim Adams delivered the 2013 Harold Mitchell Development Policy lecture at the Development Policy Centre. Arguing that economic reform in Africa has had tremendous payoffs for development in that region, he set out the lessons for the Pacific and its donors. We’ll be releasing the text of speech shortly.
In the meantime you can download a podcast of Jim’s talk through Feedburner.
Jim also spoke to Radio Australia’s Pacific Beat program on the same topic.
Update: The blog post and full transcript of the speech are now available.
