Past Event Patna, India From to Inclusive Growth

The IGC Bihar Growth Conference is a unique event which brings together an eminent range of panelists from academia, government and the private sector. The conference comprised five main sessions and two special lecture series. The event agenda, conference report and press clippings are available on this page.

A new video introduces the work of the IGC in Bihar, northern India. Bihar is one of India’s poorest states, with half of its 100 million people living on less than a dollar a day. The five-minute video includes comments from Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi; IGC country co-director Shaibal Gupta; World Bank economist Vijayendra Rao; and IGC lead economist and LSE professor Maitreesh Ghatak. It was shot on location at the recent IGC-Bihar Growth Conference.
