Inflation Reduction Act Research Workshop 1: Job Quality, Spillovers, and Place-Based Evaluations

We invite scholars from various disciplines to learn from former Inflation Reduction Act implementation and evaluation experts. Presentations will provide insights on the legislation and implementation that could inform research designs, potential data sources, and where there are notable evidence gaps. 

The workshop is intended to support prospective applicants to develop strong, policy-relevant research proposals for our upcoming Request for Proposals on the distributional economic effects of the IRA, launching in April.

Participant Information





The Washington Center for Equitable Growth seeks to collect demographic data on race, ethnicity, and gender identity from all of our stakeholders to further our mission of advancing evidence-backed ideas and policies that promote strong, stable, and broad-based economic growth. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are critical to our full understanding of inequality and growth.

 

Equitable Growth is committed to using self-reported data, but does not share individually identifiable information or discriminate based on race, ethnicity, or gender identity. We do analyze aggregated data and share it with stakeholders (e.g. advisory bodies, institutional partners, etc.) to gain actionable insights into how our programming can become more equitable and inclusive. Thank you for your voluntary support in helping Equitable Growth achieve our mission.
