Using data to think about equity: what data do we need, and what questions to ask?

By Jill Ackerman, March 2, 2023

Please join the Department of Mathematics for a talk with Shaianne Osterreich, Department of Economics

As economists interested in equity, data analysis can be extremely useful to demonstrate areas of concern and potentially reveal areas of policy relevance. This session will discuss issues related to data availability, putting together disaggregated descriptive data that captures the equity questions, figuring out good analysis techniques, and how to consider and convey the meaning of the results.
