Structural Change & Economic Growth
Project disclaimer
Description
Structural Transformation and Economic Growth (STEG) aims to develop a strong body of evidence on the underlying processes of economic growth and the changes in structure that take place in an economy when moving from low to middle and high-income status, made accessible to and used by policy-makers for improved economic decision-making. STEG’s aim is to support high-quality academic research that: brings the best economic thinking to structural transformation issues and generate new understanding; has clear policy and programme relevance, and; can be put into practice in developing countries. In addition, the programme also aims to increase the number of researchers working on structural transformation in low- and lower-middle-income countries (LICs and LMICs) as well as investing resources in the collection of new data and improving the accessibility of existing data. The programme is delivered through a contract with the Centre for Economic Policy (CEPR) in collaboration with Oxford University, the University of Notre Dame, the African Center for Economic Transformation (ACET), the Yale Research Initiative on Innovation and Scale (Y-RISE), and Groningen Growth and Development Centre of the University of Groningen.
