| Subject: | IZA and DFID organize the first workshop in their joint program on growth and labor markets in low-income countries.

Over a period of five years, promising research and capacity-building activities in the field will be selected for funding with the overall objective of delivering a significant new body of evidence on growth and labor markets that will help shape policies in LICs.
