Now Accepting Applications for Resident Post-doctoral Fellowship for the Gender and Growth Gaps Project

The Gender and Growth Gaps Project aims to critically examine the nature, causes and consequences of gender gaps in the economy in LMIC contexts. Using a diverse methodological toolkit, the study seeks to advance the evidence base around the macroeconomic and microeconomic linkages and consequences of gender inequality.
