STEFANO CARIA
Hi! I am a Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Warwick.
In the Fall 2023, I will be visiting Princeton.
I am currently a recipient of a Leverhulme Prize and a British Academy Innovation Fellowship.
I am affiliated to J-PAL, CEPR (development and labour), CAGE and the EEE program at STICERD.
I am also one of editors at VoxDev, co-director of the IGC Research Theme on Firms, IGC lead academic for Ethiopia and I serve as trustee for the Global Change Data Lab (the charity that produces Our World in Data).
I use experimental and structural methods to investigate how to make labour markets more inclusive and more efficient.
