Pardee Faculty Fellow helps launch “Triple Crisis” Blog

Pardee  Faculty Fellow, Professor Kevin P. Gallagher, together with Professor Jayati Ghosh from Nehru University are co-chairs to a new initiative, the Triple Crisis Blog, by the Global Development and Environment Institute (GDAE), the Economic Research Foundation and the Heinrich Boell Foundation.

The world is experiencing three simultaneous crises in finance, development, and the environment. A number of economists are questioning the mainstream narratives and analyses of these crises. Some of them have joined to create Triple Crisis blog to contribute to a more open and global dialogue around these three crises: about how they interact, and how they can collectively be solved.

The Triple Crisis blog aims to provide additional exposure for the existing work of a network of economists who have been working on these three integrative crises. But more importantly, the blog itself will aim to generate a dialogue in a way that has an exponential effect in terms of influencing policy-makers and the broader public.

Pardee Center Director, Professor Adil Najam, will also be a regular contributor to the Triple Crisis blog.
