To EEE members:
"The MacArthur Foundation announced today that as it steps up grants to curb climate change, overhaul the criminal justice system, and tackle other global challenges with big-dollar investments, it is ditching support for many other efforts, such as reworking America's juvenile justice system, strengthening American democracy, and improving maternal health care in needy countries."
See
https://philanthropy.com/article/MacArthur-Overhauls-Approach/232355 . Let me know if you are interested to run a project through the NBER, or if you have other ideas how to take advantage of such opportunity.
Also let me know if you have any reactions to the recent Summer Institute, or any other aspects of the EEE program. Thanks, Don
