We are an open community of professionals, government officials, civil society organizations, researchers, and students interested in economic and social development at a national level. We work with ADB’s partners and clients to share solutions to development challenges – from small detailed fixes on specific projects to development policies and big picture strategies that address broader economic and societal issues. We welcome those from other regions who are willing to collaborate and share their own solutions.
