INTER-LINKED: Representation in Economics & Policy

In this episode of Inter-Linked, we discuss the concerns associated with the lack of representation and inclusivity in the spaces of economics & policy. The conversation captures the current situation of discrimination in these fields, including how prevailing attitudes and mainstream approaches to study economics curb representation. The speaker - Prerna Kundu - is the co-founder and director at the Women in Econ and Policy initiative. Prerna has been associated with J-PAL South Asia, where she worked on interventions in child and maternal health in Jharkhand as a part of the Payments and Governance Research Program. She will be commencing a PhD in Economics at the University of British Columbia this fall. She holds a Master's in Economics from the Delhi School of Economics, and a Bachelor's degree in Economics from the Shri Ram College of Commerce.
