Sarah Janzen: Montana State University
Jan. 7, 2013
Sarah Janzen will join the faculty in the Department of Agricultural Economics and Economics at Montana State University in fall 2013. Sarah is a development economist whose research interests include risk, poverty traps and poverty dynamics in rural areas. These research interests ultimately stem from a desire to inform and influence policies that can positively impact the global poor. The goal of her dissertation, Insuring Against a Poverty Trap, is to understand how poor households in a developing country will react to the introduction of an insurance contract designed to help them cope with risk.
