Nigel Roberts is a dual citizen of the UK and the USA. He grew up in East Africa, and has worked for over fifty years in international development, thirty of those years with the World Bank—initially as an agricultural economist, later as a resident representative and then country director in Nepal, Ethiopia, the West Bank and Gaza, and Australia. His last World Bank job was joint director of the 2011 World Development Report, which focused on global conflict. Since retiring, he has advised aid agencies and governments in Somalia, West Bank and Gaza, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Ukraine and Armenia. Living with his wife Sarah and his grandson Alex in Virginia, he writes regularly on Substack (as “ImperfeCt Contrition”), and has recently produced a film on the Bhote Khampa, a small tribe of nomadic traders in the remote far-western mountains of Nepal.
