oin our webcast with Lorenzo Casaburi, UBS Foundation Associate Professor of Development Economics, to learn more about the impact of development economics.
Population pressure, urbanization, and climate change are causing major changes in land policies and land markets across Sub-Saharan Africa. These changes have implications for land use, economic development, and social stability. New research approaches, including analysis of large-scale administrative data and experimental trials, can shed light on these dynamics. In this webcast, Prof. Casaburi presents recent research on land tenure systems in Uganda and rural land rental markets in Kenya and discusses how the results can inform actions to ensure safe and productive land access.
Live from the UZH Studios, we review recent economic research on the topic and take questions from the audience via Mentimeter. The host is Dina Pomeranz, UBS Foundation Assistant Professor of Applied Economics.
This is a public event with free access via livestream on our website in association with the Centre for Economic Policy Research (CEPR).
