Description
In recent years, researchers and policymakers have become more interested in applying "big data" and behavioral insights to understanding and responding to poverty, but often these two domains are thought of separately. James Guszcza, U.S. Chief Data Scientist, Deloitte Consulting, and Justin Sydnor, Department of Risk and Insurance, University of Wisconsin, will explore how data science and behavioral science can be applied together to help build better poverty-related policies.
