Daniel Rodriguez-Segura
Before joining the World Bank, I supported governments and development organizations by generating research and evidence to inform policy design and delivery. I led the research and data analytics team at an organization working across multiple government partnerships, where I oversaw large-scale impact evaluations and descriptive studies on learning outcomes, and the strengthening of their education data systems. I have also worked as a consultant with organizations including the Inter-American Development Bank, EdTech Hub, the Africa Fellows for Education Program, the RISE Programme, and Uwezo Uganda.
My academic research has addressed topics such as curriculum reform, education technology, teacher incentives and deployment, school access, and the measurement of learning inequality and heterogeneity. I have published in the Journal of Development Economics, Economics of Education Review, Education Finance and Policy, World Bank Research Observer, and the International Journal of Educational Development, among others.
I hold a Ph.D. in Education Policy and an M.A. in Economics from the University of Virginia, and a B.A. in Economics from Washington and Lee University. Originally from Costa Rica, I am based in Washington, D.C.

My work focuses on supporting and evaluating policies that expand equitable access to high-quality education and improve student learning in low- and middle-income countries, with a particular emphasis on foundational learning.
