Sarah Cattan

I am an Associate Director in the Education and Skills sector at the Institute for Fiscal Studies. I am also a Research Fellow at IZA Bonn, a Fellow of the CESifo Network, and a Fellow of the  the Human Capital and Economic Opportunity Global Working Group (HCEO). 

My research focuses on the origins of inequality within and across generations. My current projects look at the determinants of early childhood development, the drivers of intergenerational mobility, and the impact of COVID-19 on families' time-use and child development.
