This summer, Katie joins the Centre for Social and Behavioral Change (CSBC) in India as a Graduate Research Fellow, focusing on gender-related evaluation in Uttar Pradesh and Jharkhand. She will be evaluating the impact of several interventions around female empowerment, including the distribution of internet-enabled smartphones for rural women in Uttar Pradesh, a "smart skills" training program, and digital entrepreneurship training. With a background in applied behavioral science and mixed methods research, Katie is keen to use the summer between her graduate studies at Harvard to explore the impact of behavioral interventions in a new cultural context.
