WEFIDEV
WEBINAR SERIES IN FINANCE AND DEVELOPMENT
The next Fall 2024 WEFIDEV Seminar Series will be on October 28, 2024 with presentations from:
ESCAPING VIOLENT DEATH: ACCESS TO CREDIT AND FEMALE MORTALITY
Janis Skrastins
Associate Professor of Finance, Washington University in St. Louis
THE ROLE OF CASH IN ILLEGAL LABOR MARKET PRACTICES: EVIDENCE FROM URUGUAY

Our speaker series brings together junior scholars working on finance topics in developing countries.
For the last four years, we have served as a forum for open discussion designed specifically for early stage work.
We are very excited for the 2025 WEFIDEV-RFS-CEPR conference on March 28 & 29 at LSE, London.
This will be the first of three annual conferences with a dual submission option with RFS.
Deadline is December 1st. For all details see our call for papers.
OUR MISSION
We launched WEFIDEV in early 2020 to support junior researchers in sharing their early stage work when meeting in-person was impossible.
Now, as we enter our fourth year, we look forward to continuing to build this community and provide a forum for productive discussion.
ABOUT US
WEFIDEV is run by Giorgia Barboni, Kim Fe Cramer, Sean Higgins and Nicola Limodio, with organizational support from Natalie Theys.
