Development Economics (Education and
Growth).
Development economics is a
branch of economics that deals with the facts of long term economic
growth, using mathematical methods from dynamical systems like
differential equations and inter-temporal optimization. It also includes
topics such as third world debt, and the functions of such organizations
as the IMF and World Bank.
My interest is in ways of
promoting stable and sustainable growth in poor countries and areas, by
promoting self-reliance and education in some of the lowest income
countries in the world. Currently I am part of the Microsoft Junior
Developer Curriculum Design Team at the IBA.
