Fostering applied development research collaborations across disciplines and sectors for policy impact

 

The Duke Development Economics Lab (DevLab@Duke) is an applied research center that connects social scientists focused on international development with the development practitioner community.   Our mission is to advance evaluable programming for policy impact.  

 

 

 

 

Our community represents expertise in a broad range of research activities in areas such as education, gender, governance, health, labor markets, and economic growth.

DevLab@Duke collaborates with academic, government, and industry partners to:

  • develop evidence-informed programming
  • collect high-quality monitoring and evaluation data
  • conduct methodologically rigorous impact evaluations

Through these activities, DevLab@Duke seeks to broaden and promote scientific knowledge on what works in-context to improve economic and human development outcomes of the world’s most vulnerable people.
