Today's development challenges are complicated by climate change, a reality that threatens all countries, particularly developing ones. The World Development Report (WDR) 2010 aims to understand what climate change means for development.
This event is sponsored by the InfoShop, the Development Economics Vice Presidency (DEC), and the Climate Change for Development Professionals (CCDP).
