Student Event: Q&A session with Guy Debelle, the Deputy Governor of Reserve Bank of Australia
Event Type: Partner Event
Date: Wednesday Apr 10, 2019, 9:00 am
The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) is Australia's central bank and its duty is to contribute to the stability of the currency, full employment, and the economic prosperity and welfare of the Australian people. It does this by setting the cash rate to meet an agreed medium-term inflation target, working to maintain a strong financial system and efficient payments system, and issuing the nation's banknotes.
This role is especially important in today’s uncertain banking environment. Guy Debelle started his career with an honours degree in economics from The University of Adelaide, and jobs at the International Monetary Fund, Bank for International Settlements, Australian Treasury and as a visiting professor in economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

Professional Development Seminar on Gender Lensing with Miranda Stewart and Janine Dixon
Event Type: ESA Event
Date: Thursday Mar 28, 2019, 12:30 pm
March's Professional Development seminar will be on Gender Lensing and presented by Professor Miranda Stewart and Associate Professor Janine Dixon. Following the success of WEN's Gender Lensing Masterclass at the recent Australian Gender Economics Workshop, this seminar will provide a "sampler" of what this type of analysis is about.
The objective of this seminar is to provide a brief demonstration of an applied analysis of how budgetary and other economic policy settings can be gender-patterned in their impacts and incentive effects. It aims to whet the appetite for more extensive learning about the Gender Lensing approach which would equip professional economists with the skills and insights to undertake a gender-sensitive evaluation of policy settings.
