Global Dialogues

As part of the Shanghai learning process, 20 global dialogues designed to promote cross-border learning and the exchange of knowledge and practical experience were held by videoconference. These dialogues gathered a selected group of participants including World Bank staff and outside partners with specific knowledge of both country and thematic case studies. Their objective was to peer review the draft case studies, to discuss the conceptual approach to "scaling up," and to help build a global community of learning. Usually in every dialogue two case studies from the same sector but from different countries were analyzed. The lessons learned from the dialogues were then incorporated in the case studies presented a the conference.

Country cases, included the experiences of Yemen, Burkina Faso, India, Chile, Indonesia, Uganda, Malaysia, and Poland, were discussed and analyzed. Thematic case covered Private Sector Development, Microfinance, Land Reform, Infrastructure, Water and Sanitation, Education, Health, Community Driven Development, and Empowerment..
The dialogues were held through the Global Development Learning Network, GDLN. Each dialogue page provides access to the executive summaries of the case studies as well as participant presentations. Most dialogues are also entirely available for viewing online through B-Span.
