Working papers

Our Working Paper series is a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed collection providing a forum for previously unpublished work.

Working papers are preliminary drafts from work in progress and are circulated to obtain comments and criticisms prior to finalisation. We have three live working paper series, including the new Global Development Institute series to be launched.
