Alessandra Fenizia presented “Management Consultancy in the Public Sector: Evidence from Greece,” co-authored with Renata Lemos and Ioanna Pantelaiou, at the Economic Research Center seminar series at Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México on September 11. The paper reports on a randomized management intervention in Greek vocational schools that cut student dropout by roughly 13%, with effects persisting a year after the intervention ended.
Fenizia, Associate Professor of Economics, is currently on sabbatical at the World Bank Research Department.
