Welcome to the United Nations
On 21 August 2019, CDP member Professor Ha-Joon Chang delivered the XVI Raúl Prebisch Lecture at the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) in Santiago, Chile. In his speech he proposed creating a new international economic order and called on developing countries to fight attempts to weaken multilateralism.
In 2001, to mark the 100th anniversary of the birth of Raúl Prebisch, the renowned Argentine economist and one of founders of ECLAC, the regional commission established the Raúl Prebisch Memorial Lecture Series in his honour to provide a forum for distinguished guest lecturers active in the field of economics in Latin America and the world.
