The Commission on Growth and Development comprises 22 members, who are distinguished practitioners from government, business and policy making committed to the goals of fostering faster convergence of incomes between rich and poor countries.

The role of the Commission members is to provide inputs, advice, and guidance to the preparation of the final report, which they will ultimately endorse. The report’s goal is to bring forth the best understanding of the growth challenges faced by developing countries, and transform what is now known about growth into a framework that can be used by those who make economic policy decisions.
