Radine Rafols

I'm a consultant at the Development Research Group at the World Bank. My research interests lie in the intersection of Development, Environmental and Labor Economics.

I received my PhD in Economics from Syracuse University last June 2023. I was a Postdoctoral Associate at Cornell University from 2023 to summer of 2024.
