We are pleased to invite you to our workshop Access, Resilience, and Sustainability: Pathways to Food Security in Pakistan, in collaboration with @HaqMahbub,@CDPRPak and @rizqorg 🗓️ 7 November 2025 (3:00–6:00 PM) 📷 VC Lounge, Academic Block, LUMS
Dr. Ali Cheema presented experimental evidence on Punjab’s property tax reforms. Citizens support them, politicians are open, but bureaucratic preferences often blunt progressive change — highlighting the politics of reform in South Asia.
Organised in collaboration with @EconomicsLUMS @The_IGC @CDPRPak @IDEASpak @iza_bonn @breadasia2024 @IDS_UK @CERPakistan the conference connected rigorous research with real policy. See you next year!
Keynotes: Dr. Imran Rasul (@ImranRasul3 ) — social insurance is most effective when designed around firms, not just individuals. Dr. Sheheryar Banuri (@Sheheryarbanuri ) — corruption is shaped by incentives & institutions, not intrinsic. Trust & mission-driven motivation matter.
Sessions explored climate change, energy, employment, human capital, taxation, and governance. Findings: climate shocks & prepaid meters hit the poorest hardest, while education, health & information access remain transformative for inclusion.
Taking a look back at the G²LM|LIC/Path2Dev/BREAD Academic & Policy Conference on Development Economics 2025. Leading economists, policymakers & practitioners gathered to tackle urgent challenges shaping the world — with a spotlight on South Asia.
