The research was led by Carlos Oya of SOAS University of London (UK) in collaboration with Renmin University (Beijing, China), Universidade Agostinho Neto and JMJ Angola (Luanda, Angola), the Ethiopian Economic Policy Research Institute of the Ethiopian Economics Association and the Forum for Social Studies (Addis Ababa, Ethiopia).
