Women in Economics, 2023 Index
Each year the Women in Economics organization releases an Index which reports on the state of gender in economics positions. This year the report includes graphics by Schenker Creative Co. We hope that by tracking and visualizing this data, it will encourage more support for girls and women to join and succeed in the field of Economics.
When I was studying for my undergraduate degree in economics I was frequently in classes where men severely outnumbered women in each course. In classes of 40-50 students there were maybe 6 of those students were women.
I was so excited to learn about the Women in Economics organization and to create graphics for this incredible organization. You can read the full 2023 Index here.
