About this book

Partnering with the Korea Development Institute, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) held the forum on 20-21 November 2014 at Seoul, Republic of Korea. The forum featured research papers that tackled issues on globalization and regional integration, innovation, middle-income trap, inclusive growth and social protection, and poverty and inequality. This publication documents the dynamic exchange of ideas and information during the 2-day event.The ADB-Asian Think Tank Development Forum is an annual knowledge sharing event under the ADB-Asian Think Tank Network (ATTN), established by ADB and the Asian think tanks in 2013. The major objective of the network is to promote knowledge sharing and capacity building of the think tanks, particularly those which are involved in supporting governments in formulating and implementing medium- or long-term development plans and in responding to emerging issues.
