Department of Economics welcomes you to a seminar with Christopher Neilson, Princeton University, presenting "Teacher Compensation and Structural Inequality: Evidence from Centralized Teacher School Choice in Peru." This paper studies how increasing teacher compensation at hard-to-staff schools can reduce inequality in the access to high-quality teachers. Counterfactual experiments taking into account equilibrium sorting show that budget-neutral changes in the current wage schedule can achieve a remarkably more equitable distribution of teacher quality across regions.

Department of Economics welcomes you to a seminar with Hamish Low, University of Oxford, who will present "Fertility and Family Labor Supply".
