Very sad to hear of Martin's passing. Most of our interactions at the World Bank involved him asking very difficult questions about the statistics I was responsible for - but every question was relevant, important - and helped me learn something new.
So sad to hear of the tragic loss of @MartinRavallion — pioneering poverty researcher, one of the most influential economists of the @WorldBank, and a respected @Georgetown professor. His contribution to our understanding of development was truly enormous.
Yesterday, 08 September we received the sad news of Queen Elizabeth II's passing. We, the National Trust would like to send our condolence to King Charles III and the Royal Family on the death of our Patron. May she rest in peace.
