A generation ago, the so-called Washington Consensus laid out a series of dos and don'ts for policymakers around the world. Today that vision is recognized to have fallen short in a number of dimensions. The world has changed a great deal since 1989 and so has the collective wisdom on what sound policies look like. Drawing from the research and skills of over 50 high-profile scholars, this project strives to build a "London Consensus" around which new ideas can coalesce, providing practical solutions at the local, national, and global levels.
