LACEA/IDB/WB/UNDP 
The LACEA/IDB/WB/UNDP Network on Inequality and Poverty is a joint initiative that aims to advance the state of knowledge and expertise regarding the causes and consequences of poverty, inequality, and social exclusion, and the whole range of policies, institutions, and social structures that influence their dynamics as well as the impact of public action.
Every year, NIP holds a meeting prior to LACEA's annual conference.
Research Network on Inequality and Poverty (NIP)
Submissions on all topics related to poverty and inequality in Latin America are welcome, although we particularly seek papers on two broad subjects: “Financial Systems and Poverty” and “External Sector and Poverty”. We especially encourage papers that address the effects of recent growth and the impact of economic crises throughout its main channels on poverty. The transmission channels can be financial or real (remittances, foreign direct investment, employment, tourism, etc.).
The meeting program will include a keynote address by Roberto Rigobon (Society of Sloan Fellows Professor of Applied Economics at the Sloan School of Management, MIT) on financial systems and poverty.
