PhD Student
Wangui is a PhD candidate in the Department of Political Science, investigating the allocation of climate finance in the Global South, as part of the ClimateFiGS project. More specifically her work will seek to understand what drives climate-related budget allocations. Wangui’s work draws on her extensive experience in carbon markets and climate finance. With an MSc in Computational Economics, Financial Markets, and Policy, and a Bachelors degree in Financial Economics, Wangui is curious about innovative methodologies in the social sciences, such as network analysis and agent-based modeling. Her curiosity is led by the need to address socioeconomic challenges through relevant policy recommendations and creative problem-solving.
