In a watershed moment, LaMP’s theory of change served as the core thesis for an article in the Economist. This thesis argues that rotational visas are essential to reconciling the “unstoppable force of demographics” with the “immovable object of politics.” The article cites the rapid expansion of temporary visa programs across Japan, Italy, France, Spain, and even Hungary – with the sharpest increases seen under the most conservative leadership. The article quotes LaMP Co-Founder and Board Chair Lant Pritchett, Advisory Council member Michael Clemens, and partner Margaret Mugwanja of Silver RayHR. A parallel piece in the New York Times featured LaMP partner GATI Foundation on India’s leadership to build the globally mobile workforce that will move through these visas.
