DetailsAbout
The Conference in Shanghai, May 25-27, 2004 will bring some 600 participants together around a series of success stories in development, providing high visibility to approaches that really work in poverty reduction. The Conference will be structured as a conversation in which key decision-makers will share their insights with peers from other developing and developed countries about what worked, what did not, and why, within various economic, social, and institutional contexts as they defined goals, designed programs, experimented, and learned during implementation. The proceedings will be available over the Web through video streaming.

Six hundred participants will be invited to the Conference in Shanghai, including more than 500 international and local participants, representatives of governments, civil society groups, U.N. agencies, multilateral development institutions, bilateral aid agencies, and regional development banks.

Participant profiles:

* high level policymakers from countries within the region, i.e. where the Bank is engaged in policy dialogues on topics covered in the conference;
* practitioners, policymakers, and world leaders with the best knowledge of the case studies;
* researchers and scholars;
* civil society, NGOs, and private sector representatives;
* donor community representatives, multilaterals and other development partners.
