CASI Data Seminar Series 2023: Administrative Data: The New Frontier (Wed Aug 23, 7.30 pm IST)

[rukmini shrinivasan]

Dear Datameeters,

I am writing to invite you to the next in our webinar series on India data in collaboration with the Centre for the Advanced Study of India (CASI) at the University of Pennsylvania. Our next presenter, political scientist and economist Neelanjan Sircar will present on using administrative data from Indian states on August 23 (Today) at 7.30 pm IST (10.00 am EDT). He will present on the promises and pitfalls of using administrative data, what he and others have done with it, and how researchers could use it in their own work. Please register here.

The CASI Data Seminar Series 2023 is practitioner-focused, aimed at researchers, students, academics, journalists, those in government and private firms, who use data in their work, and would like to be exposed to an exciting dataset that they could work with. Every month on a Wednesday, a leading practitioner presents on an area of Indian data that she has deep working knowledge of, followed by questions from you, the Zoom audience. A pre-session handout consolidates knowledge for all attendees, and we make the slides available after. Please find a link with past webinars here and a poster attached.

Please share widely in your networks!

Thank you,

Rukmini
