I'll be teaching Development Economics to PhD students later this year and really psyched for it.

If you feel inclined to be a giant upon whose shoulders I could stand, I'd love to see the PhD dev syllabus from a class you think worked well.

Okay, the first Women in Econ starter pack was such a success that we quickly hit the BlueSky starter pack limit (150 accounts). But, I've got a version 2.0 with even more awesome economists you should follow!

Violence against Women in India Understanding trends in the extent of violence against women can be helpful in challenging violence against women and gender inequality. In this paper, we compare the incidence of violence, as measure...

"We find that violence against women is common, that most violence against women is not reported to the police, that violence by husbands is less likely to be reported than violence by others, & that the reporting of violence has not improved over the last decade & a half"

Updated lists of #DevEcon people. Added 70ish people. Bluesky nuked my list at one point so if you got dropped, it was not intentional. Please let me know if you would like to be added, or if there is anyone I'm missing!
