Join us for a special occasion marking the appointment of Nobel laureates Esther Duflo and Abhijit Banerjee as distinguished faculty members at the Department of Economics, University of Zurich.
Awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences for their experimental approach to alleviating global poverty, Esther Duflo and Abhijit Banerjee have transformed the way economists study development and evaluate policies aimed at improving people’s lives.
In their inaugural lecture, titled “Science against poverty,” they will share insights from their research, discuss their plans for their work at the University of Zurich, and introduce the newly launched Lemann Collaborative – A global initiative for excellence in public policy, which they will lead as Lemann Professors.
