MEMBERS ONLY: Virtual Discussion w/Dr. Tymofiy Mylovanov

December 13, 2022 @ 11:00 am 12:00 pm EST

We invite BENS Members to join us for a virtual discussion with Dr. Tymofiy Mylovanov, the Former Ukrainian Minister of Economic Development, Trade and Agriculture to discuss the Ukraine’s other frontline – It’s Economy.  While Russian forces failed to capture Kyiv, and are making little progress in the east, the economic carnage of the war and Moscow’s blockade of Ukraine’s ports could pose its own existential threat.

Tymofiy Mylovanov is president of the Kyiv School of Economics and an associate professor of economics at the University of Pittsburgh. During his professional career, he has taught at European and American universities, including Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn and the University of Pennsylvania. His articles on these topics have been published in leading international academic magazines, including Econometrica, the American Economic Review, and the Review of Economic Studies.

For information on registration, BENS Members should contact Jennifer Giglio at 202-296-2125 or JGiglio@bens.org.
