Story
A Behavioral Economics View of Poverty… : DASH Story 2021-01-23
I am a USA board certified pediatrician and faculty neonatologist who practiced and taught at Chicago for 20 tears. I came to HSPH and was taught Global Health by none other than Professor David Bloom. I returned to India in 2005 to work with slum dwellers of Mumbai and Tribals of Palghar District, working with community youth on research based actions, community development, and strengthening local democracy. This kind of educational literature will definitely help us to understand the behavioural patterns of the poor and create strategies which will be more acceptable to them, thus bringing meaningful positive changes in their lives. So Thank YOU very much for making this facility available to us working in the global South. For the most part we can not afford JStor kinds of websites. Thank YOU!
