Recognizing the varied experiences and challenges faced by Ph.D. students in economics, the Research & Evaluation arm of the Association for Mentoring and Inclusion in Economics (AMIE) is committed to supporting all students through the following initiatives:​

  • Facilitating Research Presentations: We provide opportunities for Ph.D. students to present their work and receive constructive feedback from established economists. Our inaugural event took place in March 2021, and we plan to continue hosting such events annually, welcoming submissions through open calls for papers.​
  • Identifying Professional Development Needs: We conduct surveys to understand the professional development needs of Ph.D. students and early-career scholars in economics, aiming to tailor our programs effectively.​
  • Promoting Research Collaborations: We assist Ph.D. students and early-career scholars in establishing research collaborations with individual researchers and organizations through matchmaking events and other networking opportunities.​
  • Evaluating Program Effectiveness: We are committed to assessing the impact of AMIE's programs. All evaluations will be conducted with appropriate ethical approvals and participant consent, with plans to commence these evaluations soon.​

Please get in touch with us to learn about ways in which you can partner. Individual researchers (both academic and non-academic) as well as research organizations and universities are welcome! Contact us here, or email us at info@econmentoring.org

Research & Evaluation Coordinators for 2024-25 are Ana Paula Melo, Catherine Michaud-Leclerc, Priya Mukherjee
