 The Asian Institute of Management (AIM) - World Bank Global Distance Learning Center is part of the Global Development Learning Network (GDLN), a worldwide partnership of Distance Learning Centers (DLCs). Its unique facilities offer the opportunity for on-time and cost-effective information exchange, knowledge sharing, coordination, consultation, training, and dialogues to organizations, groups, teams and individuals that work to contribute to sustainable development and the reduction of poverty in the developing world.
Through Distance Learning Centers (DLCs) affiliated with GDLN, it is possible to bring together development practitioners and experts at an unprecedented level—to share their experiences and learn from each other as they design and implement ambitious reform and change programs in developing countries. By eliminating the need for experts and practitioners to travel, training or other forms of knowledge exchange do not need to be delivered in a concentrated period of time. This gives more time and flexibility for participants to read more background material; prepare real, rather than simulated assignments related to their actual work; and to learn with their own (local) colleagues as a team.

The World Bank's Environmental Group and counterparts from GDLN formed a climate change consultation team and designed a series of virtual sessions that would allow members to access a wider array of hard-to-reach stakeholders in South Asia. More Information
 Using GDLN, the workshops linked 11 countries (in both Anglophone and Francophone Africa) with Beijing, China and Washington DC. The sessions focused on ways to identify knowledge gaps and core aspects of a proposed China/East Asia-Africa Exchange Program on Special Economic Zones (SEZs), Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Cluster Development. More Information
 The series focus on issues related to female leadership by featuring live interviews and open discussions with current and former female Heads of State and a worldwide audience. Each Dialogue consists of a two-hour event supported by videoconferencing and live web streaming and is designed to bring together key stakeholders in an open conversation with women leaders in different regions of the world. More Information
