About the Organization
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) envisions a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while sustaining its efforts to eradicate extreme poverty in the region. Despite the region's many successes, it remains home to a large share of the world's poor: 263 million living on less than $1.90 a day and 1.1 billion on less than $3.20 a day.
ADB assists its members, and partners, by providing loans, technical assistance, grants, and equity investments to promote social and economic development.
ADB maximizes the development impact of its assistance by facilitating policy dialogues, providing advisory services, and mobilizing financial resources through cofinancing operations that tap official, commercial, and export credit sources.
About the Program
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) and International Economic Association (IEA) are pleased to invite papers for the 2022 ADB-IEA Innovative Policy Research Award.
The ADB-IEA Innovative Policy Research Award aims to promote the application of innovative empirical research in economics to support evidence-based policies in addressing key development challenges in Asia and the Pacific.
There is no restriction on topics or themes. ADB’s current operational priorities include (i) tackling climate change as the region is currently producing a half of the global greenhouse gas emission, (ii) addressing inequality due to digital divide following rapid digitalization in many countries in the region, (iii) enhancing regional cooperation to facilitate faster recovery of trade and investment in the region, and (iv) increasing fiscal and economic resilience post pandemic.
Award
The award will be given to the three best papers. Each award-winning paper will receive a $7,000 grant financed by ADB. If the winning paper has co-authors, the award will be shared equally among co-authors.
The top three papers will be presented at the ADB-IEA award session of the 2022 ADB Annual Meeting. ADB will also facilitate the presentation of the award-winning papers at ADB’s Asia Thought Leader Series. ADB intends to apply the ideas generated by the award-winning paper to its operations and policy advice.
