World Development Report 2018

02/10/2017

The launch of the World Bank's 2018 World Development Report (WDR) this week marks an important moment, as for the first time, the WDR is on education.

The World Development Report 2018 (WDR 2018)—LEARNING to Realize Education’s Promise—is the first ever devoted entirely to education. And the timing is excellent: education has long been critical to human welfare, but it is even more so in a time of rapid economic and social change. The best way to equip children and youth for the future is to place their learning at the center.
