The Inequality Working Group

Description

The Inequality Working Group is a biweekly meeting dedicated to fostering discussion and collaboration among graduate students and early career researchers. Moving away from a traditional seminar format, the working group facilitates a reading group driven by student presentations that emphasizes discussion and active participation. Under this model, participants are encouraged to deliver guidance to and invite assistance from graduate students pursuing challenging research projects, thereby developing meaningful collaborative relationships. This format enables faculty and students alike to engage with early-stage, ongoing research.

The 2024 program is presented by Director Steven Durlauf, Associate Director Geoff Wodtke, and Postdoctoral Scholar Kristina Butaeva. Due to the close and enduring nature of the working relationships, participation in the Inequality Working Group is by admit only. Please see the Call for Applications page for details; applications are accepted on a rolling basis.
