On 17 October, Kunal Sen speaks at the Growth Summit, organized by the Centre for Global Development. The Growth Summit: Recentering Economic Growth in Development is a two-day event that reasserts economic growth and structural transformation as central goals of development.

Academics and researchers, representatives from foundations and donor agencies, along with policymakers and practitioners, join CGD, Growth Teams, and the Charter Cities Institute for two days of panels and open discussions on growth.

In a session titled 'Evidence-based Action for Growth', Kunal Sen participates in a panel discussing the importance of sustainable growth in the development agenda and the role of evidence-based policy in driving that growth. The session is designed to highlight how rigorous research and data can inform growth policies and actions.
