Join us on Tuesday, April 5th! UMBC's AOK Library, 7th Floor
Giovanni Peri, PhD Professor of Economics University of California, Davis
This lecture will provide first an overview on global regularities that suggest international migrations have a very important economic motivation and that migrants embody a large amount of human capital. Then we will provide a framework to interpret the economic effects of immigrants in the US and will review key findings from recent research on labor markets, productivity and entrepreneurship effect of immigrants, and conclude with a focus on the last 2 years, when during the COVID-19 crisis the inflow of immigrants almost stopped and the possible consequences of this.
This event is free, open to the public, and will be recorded. Following the event, the recording will be available with closed captioning on CS3's YouTube channel.
