When Economic Growth Hurts: Evidence from Tajikistan's Cotton Sector

The first session of the "Mend the gap in Europe and Central Asia: Evidence for policy and operation" Webinar Series, organized in collaboration with the World Bank ECA Gender Innovation Lab, will feature Angelina Nazarova (University of Essex), who will present evidence from Tajikistan on how economic shocks shape gender-biased investments in children’s education.

This will be followed by a discussion with a World Bank operations lead on translating research evidence into policy and operational decisions in Europe and Central Asia and inspire impact beyond.

The webinar will take place on Zoom (no registration required).
