@jchitchen so ready! 😂

Apply if you’re passionate about data and economics! After 2 years of piloting incl designing a new misinformation training, measurements and building a lab in the field, we’re finally launching an experiment that will generate a lot of interesting data. #EconRA #predoc 🤓

Climate change will hurt the poorest hardest because the poor live in hotter places & have fewer resources to protect themselves. @DFID_UK is therefore increasing its climate investments--both mitigation & adaptation. But what are the most effective ways to do that? Thread (1/n)

[Arthur Baker @AW_Baker]

This is great! Animated summary of @AnneKaring's research on social incentives for childhood immunization (that I worked on).

I'll be watching some more @econimate videos!

The @WorldBank's Bureaucracy Lab would like to receive proposals from PhD students whose work relates to the analysis of public administration for blogs that summarize their papers. The best 4 will be posted on the Gov4Dev blog site. Find out more: https://t.co/nrGmlVBaz7

Check out the outstanding work of our JM student @AnneKaring. She has a very clever model-based design that uses color-coded bracelets to signal completion of vaccination in Sierra Leone.

[Arthur Baker @AW_Baker]

Fascinating research from @AnneKaring on a cost effective way to increase childhood immunization. So exited to finally read this working paper!

Congrats also to @poverty_action #SierraLeone, esp Fatu, Mr Bah, and Jonas for making this happen!

[Jonas Guthoff @jonasguthoff]

Amazing JMP by amazing PI @AnneKaring! Beyond grateful to have been part of this & to have learned from @AnneKaring & the team @poverty_action Sierra Leone, esp Fatu Conteh and Abdulai Bah.

[Rachel Glennerster @rglenner]

How can a simple silicone bracelet raise measles vaccine rates 14ppt? By leveraging parents' desire to signal they are good parents.
Practical innovation & great test of signaling theory.
Congrats @AnneKaring on a great JMP!

@DirkGilson, I really liked your documentary! I'm an econ student in Bonn writing my thesis on a related topic, would be great to connect!?
