JiLAEE

JILAEE is a network of world-class researchers, public and private institutions, and social innovators. Founded by John List (UChicago) and Julio Elias (UCEMA). Along with our research team and affiliated researchers, we aim to use insights from behavioral and experimental economics to reduce inequality and promote economic betterment in Latin America.

Our mission is ​to inspire positive social change through innovative research in Latin America.

JILAEE partners with public and private institutions to produce rigorous research, supports researchers to run their own field experiments in Latin America, and brings together a network of world-class researchers and innovators.

OUR WORK: our research studies are organized by thematic sectors relevant to policy, and capacity-building in the region. Each sector includes research projects, policy briefs, and outreach activities to work in close collaboration with Latin American stakeholders.
