Kavita Watsa
Communications Officer, Development Economics Vice-Presidency, World Bank
As a Communications Officer in the World Bank’s Development Economics department, my work involves distilling and sharing as widely as possible the main messages from publications such as the World Development Report and Global Economic Prospects series, as well as from ongoing research. Before joining the World Bank in 2001, I was a free-lance journalist in India for several years. Reading and writing are the things I most enjoy; my first book Brahmins and Bungalows: Travels through South Indian History was published by Penguin India in 2004. I also like to tend plants and hike with my dog.
