The GC Wealth Project, directed by Salvatore Morelli and produced by the Stone Center on Socio-Economic Inequality at the GC-CUNY jointly with the University of Roma Tre (Law Department), is a multi-year effort aimed at expanding and consolidating access to the most up-to-date research and information on wealth, wealth inequalities, and wealth transfers and related tax policies, across countries and over time.
The website is designed to provide researchers, policymakers, journalists, and other interested with open, unlimited access to an array of high-quality information and resources. The site allows users to create tailored visualizations through the interactive dashboard and to explore research and data, all freely exportable.
The GC Wealth Project website was launched in June 2023. An updated version of its data warehouse is available from December 2024.
Stone Center Director Janet Gornick and GC Wealth Project Director Salvatore Morelli took part in a recent meeting of the International Panel on Inequality (IPI) Founding Committee, an international group of experts and government officials who are seeking to establish a permanent global panel to fight inequality.
