The Economic Growth Center, since its founding in 1961 by faculty in the Economics Department at Yale University, has had the objective of studying and promoting understanding of the economic development process within low-income countries and how development is affected by trade and financial relations between these countries and those that developed earlier. The Center facilitates and coordinates the research and training of its faculty who have diverse scholarly specialties and interests.
The research work and other activities of the Center are reported in detail in: Economic Growth Center Activity Report – July 2000 through December 2005.
The work of the Center is conducted by regular Yale faculty and a number of visitors, including postdoctoral fellows, and supported by an administrative, clerical and research support staff:
