Hope you no longer need to spend months figuring out what these estimators are and how to use them.

Great leaders inspire by listening, challenging you to grow, and reminding you of your purpose—while encouraging you to stay true to yourself. Thank you, @AxelVT_WB—it was a privilege to learn from you!

[Axel van Trotsenburg @Axel_vanT]

Great to meet the new @WorldBank Group Young Professionals! Their energy and ideas are inspiring — taking me back to my own start at the Bank.

Excited for the impact we’ll create together toward a world free of poverty on a livable planet!

[Bhavya Srivastava @BhavyaS95]

A fitting tribute to the architect of modern India, Finance Minister, Prime Minister, & economist. You have inspired generations of policy makers. Rest in peace, Dr. Manmohan Singh.

“Singh’s vision … is still the most compelling framework India needs.”

This is a great opportunity for scholars based out of LMICs. Do apply if you’re eligible!

[Jessica Leight @leightjessica]

#EconTwitter #econsky: announcement of call for mentors + opportunity for paper feedback for scholars from LMICs (repeating a success from last year)! tl;dr sign up either to submit a paper (if you're a junior scholar from a LMIC) or review a paper (any post-PhD scholar).
