Nearly two dozen journalists have been killed so far in Hamas-Israel war
- It’s a staggering number. I can’t recall the last time so many journalists killed in such a short period
- For context, 15 journalists have been killed in Ukraine between 2022-2023

Let’s remember that among the amazing things she did is also the Women in Economics (UWE) challenge, which made us start thinking of ways to increase women in economics. It was 2015 & that’s how my work in this space started.
Thank you & congrats Claudia Goldin!

This includes better understanding (and coining the term!) The Great Compression (of 1940s) which saw a rapid reduction in wage inequality.
