Please join the GeoEconomics Center to launch new research as we unveil our Bretton Woods 2.0 Project with Ceyla Pazarbasioglu, Director of the SPR Department at the IMF, and Carmen Reinhart, former Chief Economist of the World Bank and Professor at Harvard Kennedy School.

The Bretton Woods 2.0 Project examines the deep challenges facing the Bretton Woods Institutions and works to reimagine the governance of international finance for the modern global economy. The event will launch four new reports that will address reforms of the Bretton Woods Institutions, focusing on governance and parallel institutions, non-state and quasi-state actors, and China’s views of reforms of Bretton Woods. 

In the public launch of the Bretton Woods 2.0 project we will make a major announcement about the creation of a fellowship to help guide the next generation of young economists as they help reshape and reimagine the international financial system for the challenges ahead.
