Since 2002, the Knowledge for Change Umbrella Program (KCP), housed in the Development Economics Vice Presidency (DEC) of the World Bank, has been supporting innovative research, data, and analytical projects to expand the knowledge frontier in development policy and practice. The KCP��s 20th anniversary celebration (��KCP20+��), to be implemented through a series of events, will serve as dialogues on knowledge generation in international development that cross sectors, generations, and borders. The events will showcase the evolution of research and knowledge in select thematic fields over the past 20 years, demonstrate the program��s impacts, and explore new solutions to tangibly strengthen the linkage between fundamental research and development interventions. The events will be anchored in the three core objectives of the KCP program:

Generating, operationalizing, and disseminating knowledge
Transforming evidence, data, and insights into policy change
Improving the enabling environment to democratize development knowledge through partnerships, capacity building, and innovation

A total of three events are envisioned. The first event, centered on issues related to conflicts, migration, and climate change, took place on Nov 2, 2022. The second event took place on February 3 and focused on poverty, inequality, and human capital. This note will provide more information on the background of the third and last event, proposed to happen in June 2023.

FORMAT

The two-part hybrid event will last for three hours, separated into two equal parts. Part I will focus on trade and international integration; and Part II will deep-dive into private sector development. Each part will follow the same structure, beginning with a presentation on the evolution of research and knowledge in the respective theme. A panel discussion will follow that features diverse perspectives from stakeholder groups such as academia, governments, international organizations, non-state actors and donors. A question-and-answer session will occur at the end of each segment.

Trade and international economic integration have been a powerful engine for growth. In the past two decades, researchers have made considerable strides in understanding how economic integration affect productivity and poverty particularly in developing countries, the effective formulation of national policies related to international integration, as well as the utilization of international cooperation to help reduce poverty and promote shared prosperity. But the recent slow-down of global trade development and increasing concerns over the distributional impacts of globalization pose new policy challenges. Similarly, a vigorous private sector is an important driver of poverty reduction. Significant analytical progress has been made on the understanding of firm dynamics and business environment to encourage entrepreneurship, spur firm growth, and incentivize the formalization of the informal sector. But issues related to resource misallocation among firms, the fragility of the financial systems, and persistent obstacles on entrepreneurship require much more in-depth analyses on best policy options. In this seminar, discussions will be focused on the evolution of knowledge in trade and private sector development over the past 20 years, including an elaboration on crucial breakthroughs, recurring themes, major lessons learned, as well as new directions in research, data, and analytical efforts in these fields.
