1999 Year in Review

The Institute's second year was marked by consolidating research and capacity building activities and expanding into new poverty reduction initiatives. Under Dean Masaru Yoshitomi, a framework matrix was developed to systematize ongoing and future projects and to incorporate the ADB's overarching goal of poverty reduction.

Research results were disseminated through the new ADB Institute Working Paper Series in both print and electronic versions. Capacity-building proceedings and training materials were circulated through the Executive Summary Series and Policy Papers Series for selected workshops. ADB Institute also launched its newsletter and public affairs abstracts.
