The Development Futures Lab (DFL)
works to envision, evaluate, and engender future development by predicting how future
socioeconomic transformations will impact development and by exploring the potential
contributions of emerging technologies.
The core mission of the DFL is to forge innovative, data-driven policy solutions that
significantly improve the efficiency, transparency, and overall impact of global development initiatives.
Established in 2023, DFL is an affiliated Global Research Institute (GRI) at the Graduate School of International Studies (GSIS) at Korea University.
