[Congratulations!] Bina AGARWAL and James BOYCE WIN FIRST “GLOBAL INEQUALITY RESEARCH AWARDS”, GIRA-24
The CSH is pleased to announce that Bina Agarwal, Padma Shri, an associate researcher at CSH and professor of Development Economics and Environment at the University of Manchester with James K. Boyce, an economist, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, jointly awarded the “2024 GLOBAL INEQUALITY RESEARCH AWARDS – GiRA“.
Both distinguished economists are acknowledged for their notable and lasting impacts on the field of gender inequalities, environmental governance, ecofeminism, environmental inequalities & political economy, and the relationship between social inequality and environmental degradation,
The World Inequality Lab (WIL) and Sciences Po’s Center for Research on Social Inequalities (CRIS) have joined forces for the first edition of the Global Inequality Research Award (or GiRA), which aims to recognize every two years researchers from all disciplines who have made a significant contribution to the understanding of global inequalities.
GiRA seeks to acknowledge major scholarship in the field of global inequality understood in two key perspectives: first, the perspective of inequality research being done in all corners of the world; and second, the perspective of inequality as a complex object that needs light from all angles to be fully grasped, understood and eventually mitigated.
