RIDGE Forum
RIDGE activities take place in May and December around the RIDGE Forum. Workshops generally last for two days and include academic sessions and policy debates. They have become an excellent platform for connecting top researchers working on the frontier of knowledge with local and regional researcher and policy makers.
Research Groups have a well-defined field in economics and are led by Research Directors and a Scientific Committee of internationally renowned economists. Many of the workshops of the RIDGE forum are organized jointly with the LACEA Networks.
As a general rule, the field of a Research Group has to be relevant for economic policy and/or have a critical social impact, in particular for Latin America. RIDGE aims to interact with researchers in the region and increase the relation between academic research and economic policy. RIDGE cooperates with universities and research centers in the region as well as research departments of national, regional and international institutions. Among others, the Inter American Development Bank (IADB), the Central Bank of Uruguay (BCU), CAF, UdelaR, Universidad de Montevideo, Universidad ORT, EAFIT, UBA, PUCRio, FGV, U los Andes.
