ABOUT US
Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research (IGIDR) is an
advanced research institute established and fully funded by the
Reserve Bank of India for carrying out research on
development issues from a multi-disciplinary point of view.
Starting as a purely research institution, it rapidly developed
into a full-fledged teaching cum research organisation when it
launched a Ph.D. program in the field of development studies in
1990. The objective of the Ph.D. programme is to produce
researchers with diverse disciplinary backgrounds who can
address issues of economics, energy and environment policies.
In 1995, the institute initiated the M. Phil programme. The M.Sc.
programme commenced in 2003 to introduce students to the
world of research at an earlier stage.
At present the Institute has about 150 employees and students
that include about 26 full time faculty members, 24 non-
academic staff and about 90 M.Sc. / M.Phil / Ph.D students.
“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single
step..”
Welcome to Inflexion, the first chapter of the National Economics Festival of IGIDR, Mumbai.
In this conclave, we seek to congregate exceptional talent, enthusiasm from diverse academic backgrounds and

<Brief write up about the theme of the festival>
