About the Author

Wim Swann has a master’s in Economics from Delhi School of Economics and History from the Woodrow Wilson School of Princeton University. She worked with the World Bank over the period 1971 to 2006, where she was actively involved as a ‘front-line operator’ to help in working on remotely-conceived development plans into action. Much of her works centered on socio-economic policy and governance. Thus, she dealt with issues related to civil society, including those arising out of preconceptions about gender. She served as counselor to the president on issues involving ethics, values, rights, and faith in development work which reflects the recent grown realisation that development institutions like the World Bank share common goals with religious traditions in the alleviation of poverty and its attendant problems; and that there is the need for a symbiotic dialogue between these two in order to maximise the benefits from their working together synergistically since 2000. Presently she is associated with Berkley Center for Religion, Peace and World Affairs.
