Conferences, Training, and Workshops
As part of its research program, TMD continues to conduct research-cum-training workshops to impart quantitative skills to policy researchers and analysts from local organizations. Through lectures, computer exercises, and supervised trainee research, the courses teach SAM-based data management and policy analysis with partial and general equilibrium models. This approach offers advantages by making training more relevant and useful; speeding up the adoption of new skills and the use of the trainees' results in regular policymaking; and increasing the demand for research-based information for decision-making.
