Pasricha, Himani

University College Dublin

I am a fifth-year PhD Economics student at University College Dublin, Ireland. My research revolves around understanding the dynamic between climate variability, weather shocks, and climate change, and their impact on internal migration in developing countries.
I aim to shed light on the complex relationship between environmental factors and human mobility, contributing to our understanding of the consequences of climate change on vulnerable populations.
Additionally, I am interested in labour market policies, with a particular focus on how minimum wage policies affect the labour market outcomes of workers employed in the informal and non-compliant sectors.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Statistics from the University of Delhi, India and a Master of Science in Economics from the Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India.
Through my research, I seek to contribute to evidence-based policymaking and address pressing societal challenges at the intersection of labour markets, climate change, and development economics.
