About this position

Two postdoctoral researchers will join the Evaluation for Inclusion Office, an initiative of the Municipality of Fortaleza in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. The office is supported by the Fund for Innovation in Development (FID) and works in collaboration with the Development Innovation Lab (DIL) at the University of Chicago and the University of Ceará.

The project offers an opportunity to conduct rigorous impact evaluations of public policies within government institutions. Researchers will use controlled and natural experiments to study policy effectiveness and generate evidence relevant to inclusion and public-sector decision-making.

The research environment brings together researchers from Brazil and abroad, with opportunities for academic research, publications, and international collaboration. The positions are suited to researchers working in economics, public policy, applied microeconometrics, causal inference, randomized controlled trials, and natural experiments.

Funding details

The full-time, in-person, 24-month positions offer an expected monthly fellowship of approximately R$14,000.

What's required

Applicants should hold a PhD or be nearing completion in Economics, Public Policy, or a related field. Strong quantitative skills and experience with causal inference, randomized controlled trials, natural experiments, and applied microeconometrics are required or strongly preferred.

How to apply
