Teaching

I envision a way of teaching Economics that places the main challenges of today, from climate change to issues of social justice and rising inequalities, at the center of our curricula. I welcome experimentation with a diverse array of teaching methods, bridging theory and practical applications. These include prototyping and live case studies.

I believe that a culture of excellence and constant innovation should characterize academic teaching as much as it does research. This means creating a system that selects, retains, measures and rewards good teachers. One of my main commitments is to work towards the professionalization of academic teachers and the recognition of their value in society.

An ongoing and broad conversation on these themes is paramount. Students and academics engaged in these matters are welcome to contact me.
