NCAER - NATIONAL DATA INNOVATION CENTRE
Pallavi Choudhuri is a Senior Fellow and the Deputy Director at the NCAER-National Data Innovation Center (NDIC). Her primary research interests are in the areas of social protection, informality, poverty, employment, and gender. Previously, at NDIC, she has led experiments on measurement gaps in income and consumption data and women’s paid and unpaid work. She is part of the core research team for the Indian Human Development Survey (IHDS), involved with the design and implementation of the third wave of the survey.
Her work has been published in both international and domestic journals, along with contributions to Indian (English language) newspapers. She is the lead editor of the book, “India’s Social and Economic Transformation in the 21st Century”, an edited volume of articles using data from various rounds of the IHDS, published by Routledge (2023).
She is an active member of several national and international organizations in economics and demography and has also served on government committees during my work at NCAER.
Prior to joining NCAER, Choudhuri taught courses in Economics at the Grand Valley State University in Michigan as a Visiting Assistant Professor. She received my PhD. in Economics from the University of Wyoming.
