PROVIDED NEW RESEARCH, DATA, CONSULTATION, PUBLIC EVENTS AND SEMINARS, PUBLICATIONS, AND POLICY PROPOSALS TO HELP ADDRESS GLOBAL ISSUES ON HEALTH, EDUCATION, TECHNOLOGY, ACCESS TO FINANCE, MIGRATION, AND OTHER DEVELOPMENT ISSUES.GLOBAL HEALTH - AS MORE COUNTRIES RISE OUT OF POVERTY, CGD IS FOCUSING ON THE INEQUITIES AND EMERGING PROBLEMS THAT JEOPARDIZE GLOBAL HEALTH PROGRESS: HOW SHOULD GOVERNMENTS ALLOCATE SCARCE HEALTH BUDGETS RATIONALLY? HOW CAN GLOBAL HEALTH DONORS AND OTHER DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS ADVANCE GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY, PANDEMIC PREPAREDNESS, AND HEALTH SYSTEMS STRENGTHENING? WHAT CAN BE DONE TO ADDRESS HEALTH INEQUITIES IN LOW AND MIDDLE-INCOME COUNTRIES? WHAT ARE EVIDENCE-INFORMED POLICIES TO ADDRESS MARKET FAILURES THAT SPAN FROM EARLY-STAGE PHARMACEUTICAL RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT TO SUPPLY CHAIN EFFICIENCY AND ENSURE HEALTH PRODUCT MARKETS WORK FOR THE POOR? CGD RESEARCH HELPS POLICYMAKERS BUILD SUSTAINABLE HEALTH SYSTEMS, RESPOND TO SHIFTING REALITIES, AND DELIVER VALUE FOR MONEY. MIGRATIONS, DISPLACEMENT AND HUMANITARIAN POLICY - WE WORK TO MAXIMIZE THE BENEFITS OF MIGRATION TO DESTINATION AND ORIGIN COUNTRIES, EXPAND THE OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE TO FORCIBLY DISPLACED PEOPLE, AND REFORM THE HUMANITARIAN SYSTEM TO BETTER SERVE THE NEEDS OF THOSE AFFECTED BY CONFLICT AND CRISIS. WE RECOGNIZE THAT HUMAN MOBILITY CAN HAVE POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE EFFECTS, DEPENDING ON POLICY CHOICES. WE THEREFORE COLLABORATE WITH POLICYMAKERS AROUND THE WORLD TO CREATE SUSTAINABLE, PRAGMATIC, AND EVIDENCE-BASED POLICIES FOR EVERYONE ON THE MOVE.EDUCATION - CGD'S EDUCATION PROGRAM FOCUSES ON BROAD WELFARE GOALS AND SEEKS TO UNDERSTAND THE ROLE EDUCATION CAN PLAY IN ADDRESSING INEQUITY. DESPITE THE TREMENDOUS PROGRESS THAT HAS BEEN MADE IN INCREASING SCHOOL ACCESS, EDUCATION HAS NOT YET FULFILLED ITS PROMISE OF BEING THE GREAT SOCIETAL EQUALIZER. OUR RESEARCH EXAMINES THE MECHANISMS THROUGH WHICH EDUCATION CAN GIVE CHILDREN EQUAL LIFE OPPORTUNITIES AND BUILD THE HUMAN CAPITAL THAT NATIONS NEED TO PROSPER.SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT FINANCE - CGD'S SDF PROGRAM FOCUSES ON THINKING BEYOND AID, TO PRIVATE FINANCE, AND UNLOCKING DEVELOPING COUNTRIES' OWN RESOURCES. CGD RESEARCH EXAMINES THE ROLES OF FINANCIERS AND DEVELOPING COUNTRY PARTNERS IN MOBILIZING AND ALLOCATING AID SO THAT THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY CAN FOCUS NOT ONLY ON COUNTRY-BY-COUNTRY DEVELOPMENT, BUT ALSO ON PRESSING SHARED PROBLEMS, SUCH AS CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE THREAT OF PANDEMICS. TECHNOLOGY - CGD'S TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM FOCUSES ON THREE KEY QUESTIONS AROUND INNOVATION, GROWTH, AND INEQUALITY: HOW CAN GOVERNMENTS USE EXISTING TECHNOLOGIES TO DELIVER SERVICES MORE EFFECTIVELY TO CITIZENS? HOW CAN INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTIONS HELP CREATE AND SPREAD NEW TECHNOLOGIES TO TACKLE SHARED PROBLEMS LIKE CLIMATE CHANGE AND PANDEMICS? AND HOW CAN POLICYMAKERS ENSURE ADVANCES IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, AUTOMATION, AND COMMUNICATIONS BRING SHARED BENEFITS AND NOT GREATER GLOBAL INEQUALITY?
