Helping families make the most informed decisions often means building state capacity to communicate how policies affect individuals as well as social goals people care about.
AI is going to make government much more efficient at allocating resources/services. However the gap between policy complexity and public understanding is increasing and is limiting meaningful citizen participation and accountability.
Without tools for transparency, public misperceptions can derail otherwise successful reforms and policies. We need to figure this out
We are very happy to have such an experienced policymaker that is also passionate about evidence based policymaking. Than you Juan Ariel @JimeneznJuan!
Muchas gracias al profesor @ChrisANeilson por invitarme a su clase de Economía de la Educación en @JacksonYale para conversar sobre reformas de la política docente.
Siempre es una gran experiencia compartir y discutir temas con personas apasionadas por las políticas públicas.

DFM es un currículum digital y orientador vocacional virtual, que combate la deserción escolar y promueve el acceso a la educación superior.
Anteriormente, una versión no digital fue aplicada en Perú, donde redujo la deserción en casi un 20%.
🚨new on smart matching platforms:
Teachers applying to jobs in rural ecuador were provided information on their chances of getting the jobs they applied for (given algorithm/ applications) + suggested other jobs.
Result 1: shifted entire distribution of teacher competency
We discussed Bharadwaj, @eberhard_juan, and @ChrisANeilson's paper too, and we were shocked that at least for this, Chile and Norway are not so different (they are also demanding full care if they have a 1.51 kg premature child, thanks to @nico_rojas_s' rec and RD magic)
Our team at @ConsiliumBots and the associated researchers and PIs have just won support for *three* projects from the latest @AgencyFund call. https://t.co/KWtMZA2yOJ
Amazing job team! Now to work 💪🏽🤓
Thank so much for the turn our and comments on this paper! Out intervention, with @Mineduc and @ConsiliumBots, informed top math-performer women where they stand in the score distribution. It made women apply to higher education more, specially health majors (but not STEM 😱)
The east coast is showing off with 25C weather and the fall foliage, and it was great to catch up with the @hgse and @ConsiliumBots folks. NEUDC, here we go!

Brazil's annual school performance results came out! https://t.co/ZWAJstuqBI
The state of Ceará continues to perform excellently, despite being Brazil's 5th poorest state. Yet in 2005, Ceará performed in the bottom half of Brazil's states.
How did it achieve this change? 🧵
