AWESOME FREE class from STAR Development Economists: 14.73x The Challenges of Global Poverty
MIT’s EdX is offering an awesome MUST-register class by JPAL geniuses, Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo to teach an intro class on Global Poverty.
Duflo and Banerjee are the founders of the Jameel Poverty Action Lab (JPAL), behind the most interesting and fascinating new research on poverty issues in the Developing World, and are having a significant impact on international aid and development interventions.
Their courses are generally hard to get into (I can personally attest to this), and expensive. But now you can get it for free. Definitely check it out!
