Even if useful, reading this material reinforces this constant feeling that econ research, incl. devecon, does not exist outside us and uk borders.

I've worked a lot more with this type of data since then, but I think the result was pretty solid.

But, I still think about this project as cross-country correlations are still used a lot in #devecon.

It also inspired this #rstats post:

Looking forward to this one! And for all Econ PhD students in Bavaria who might be taken aback from the „DevEcon“ sign, DevEcon is quite a cross-sectional field in Econ, many labor/migration/environmental &co topics would be part of it . Try applying first (and check suitability second 😉)
@jisteinert.bsky.social, Andreas Landmann, and I are organizing a Bavarian PhD Workshop in Development Economics in July! Goal is to strengthen the regional network among PhD students in Bavaria who work on DevEcon. Please spread the word and apply/drop by! :) Deadline May 4.
