The nuts and bolts of economic growth

The nuts and bolts of economic growth

Economic growth is vital, but how does it actually happen? In this episode, we discuss the importance of growth, get into the nitty gritty of growth policy, and preview our series on growth policy. In our first series of Ideas in Development, we are learning about growth success stories in Latin America, Africa and Asia, directly from policymakers who helped to make them happen. For each of these conversations, we’ll be joined by Kartik Akileswaran, Co-Founder of Growth Teams. In this episode we discuss why we are focusing on growth, and his experience as an advisor, funder, and practitioner working on growth policy.
