What started as a focused effort to build world-class research capabilities has since grown into a vibrant, interdisciplinary university ecosystem (<a href=\"https:\/\/krea.edu.in\/)%E2%80%94\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/krea.edu.in\/)\u2014<\/a>&nbsp;and a global network of researchers, practitioners, and partners working across industries and geographies. Over the past two decades, the Institute has served as a hub for pioneering research in finance and economics, incubating cutting-edge ideas spanning a wide range of sectors, from governance to health and livelihoods. But our most enduring strength has been the collaborations our ecosystem nurtured and the people it brought together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we\u2019re excited to carry this legacy forward through the IFMR Centres Alumni Network\u2014a global community bringing together former staff and researchers across IFMR centres, including Catalyst, CDFI, Deccan Centre, Inclusion Economics India Centre, IWWAGE, J-PAL South Asia, LEAD, Sapien Labs, and WELL Labs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":40839,"template":"","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"event_listing_category":[],"event_listing_type":[],"class_list":["post-40836","event_listing","type-event_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v26.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Pre-summit Convening on Ethical &amp;
