The Development Puzzle | Veronica Nyhan Jones

The Natural Resources Podcast

If you are interested in the field of natural resources and economic development, then you surely know Veronica Nyhan Jones. Currently at the IFC Sustainable Infrastructure Advisory, she has been central to the implementation of World Bank Group development programmes in the extractives.
After decades of persistent reduction in global poverty, do we still need global development banks? In this personal conversation with Veronica, we revisit the relevance of multilateral organisations, discuss the nature of economic development and consider the most pressing global development challenges ahead.
