Power of open borders, migration, and cricket… watching the players, umpires or the audience of UsA-South Africa T20 in West Indies suggests ethnicity is no indicator of citizenship or talent! If only politics would catch up with this reality!
@KYAmoako Founder President of ACET is stepping down this summer. KY epitomizes leadership at work; a champion for Africa; and a true representative of the global South. An inspiration for many of us working in development. @worldbankAfrica Thank you for your mentorship

Yamini Aiyar on X: "Bidding farewell to Dr K.P Krishnan, whose tenure at CPR comes to an end..Thank you KP for you’ve made us better scholars and pub policy professionals.” KP’s contribution to public policy has been outstanding. A class by himself. https://t.co/B7SD97CZ45
Bidding farewell to Dr K.P Krishnan, whose tenure at CPR comes to an end, over a scrumptious Bengali lunch, with lovely anecdotes and gossip! Thank you KP for your mentorship and support, you’ve made us better scholars and pub policy professionals.
I have lost my mentor. Robert Solow was my thesis advisor, and being named the Robert Solow professor of economics at MIT was the proudest day of my life. There will be times for elogies. Meanwhile, RIP Bob, with infinite thanks.
@benasbd It was a privilege to learn about the impactful work of #cfc in securing the livelihood of rural communities. Thank you Ambasaador for taking the time to share with @MIGA CFC’s history.
