The Jobs and Development Conference (#Jobs4Dev) is a global event co-organized by the World Bank, UNU-WIDER, the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the now concluded Network on Jobs and Development (NJD) – a partnership of research institutes from various regions of the world: the Development Policy Research Unit at University of Cape Town (DPRU, South Africa), Institute for Structural Research (IBS, Poland) and the HKUST Institute for Emerging Market Studies (HKUST IEMS, Hong Kong). The 2024 edition of the conference was hosted by J-PAL MENA at the American University in Cairo, Egypt.
The conference strives to expand the frontiers of global knowledge around jobs, improve understanding of the interplay between development and quantity and quality of work, and advance the discussion on the most effective policies to improve jobs outcomes in low- and middle-income countries.
