This week on Social Economics Iris Buder had a sit down conversation with Jacki Strenio on feminist economics.
IAFFE Academy is hosting pre-tenure scholars who are committed to incorporating feminist perspectives into the teaching of economics. The event features three feminist scholars who will share their experiences teaching economics, discuss challenges in their career paths, and offer insights into the job market.
Featuring Dr. Michelle Holder, Dr. Nasrina Siddiqi, Dr. Jacqueline Strenio, and Dr. Kanchana Ruwanpura
