Claudia Goldin is a labor economist at Harvard who is the most recent Nobel Laureate in economics “for having advanced our understanding of women’s labour market outcomes”. Among her many accolades and contributions, she has made history becoming the first woman to get tenure in Harvard's economics department as well as the first woman to receive the Nobel prize in economics solo. We wanted to congratulate Claudia Goldin on receiving the Nobel Prize in Economics. However, as we began to explore her contributions to the fields of labor and feminist economics our attention was drawn to something else... Women economists or, lack thereof.
In this episode, first-time hosts Sasha and Zoya raise crucial questions about the roots of this disparity, starting with undergraduate education. Together, they discuss the far-reaching implications of this gender gap for the field of economics and actionable steps to foster inclusivity and equality. Tune in to gain insights and perspectives on dismantling barriers for women in economics on this episode of the expanding economics podcast.
