In view of the 15th year of the World Bank's LSMS-Integrated Surveys on Agriculture (LSMS-ISA) initiative, Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS), in partnership with the Tanzania National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and the Office of the Chief Government Statistician (OCGS), Zanzibar are organizing a conference titled “Fifteen Years of LSMS-ISA: Longitudinal Surveys for Research and Development.”
The event brings together top-tier researchers and high-level policymakers from within Africa to advance the dialogue on the research, policy, and development impacts of the LSMS-ISA initiative in Sub-Saharan Africa in general and Tanzania in particular. The keynote speaker for the conference will be Prof. Douglas Gollin, the Jason P. and Chloe Epstein Professor of Economics at Tufts University.
We are inviting the submissions of full papers to be considered for this conference “Fifteen Years of LSMS-ISA: Longitudinal Surveys for Research and Development,” to be held on November 14, 2023, in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.
