South Asian and South East Asian Colloquia on

Progress and Policy
State, Market, and Civil Society -
The Three Fellow Travellers

Understanding the Interconnected Dynamics of Progress

    About the Colloquia

    As the world continues to navigate the post-pandemic recovery in 2024,
    the interplay between state, market, and civil society remains key
    to forging resilient and equitable growth. This colloquium addresses the
    evolving dynamics of these actors to align policies with the emerging needs of a rapidly
    changing global landscape. Through collaborative discourse,
    we aim to identify innovative strategies for sustainable progress in
    South Asia and Southeast Asia.    The inspiration for this colloquium emerged from the concepts presented in Dr. Rajat Nag's
    work on institutions and governance.
