The JVI was established in 1992 by the Austrian Authorities (represented by the Federal Ministry of Finance and the Oesterreichische Nationalbank), the International Monetary Fund, and several other international organizations, hence 2017 marks its 25th anniversary. To celebrate the occasion, the JVI organized a conference at the Oesterreichische Nationalbank on June 29-30, inviting many of those involved with the JVI over the past 25 years. In this video, representatives from the JVI’s Primary Members, its three most recent directors, and one alumnus reflect on the beginnings of the JVI, its training, and how it has developed over the years, including what makes the JVI stand out compared to other training institutions.
