Overview
The Washington Center for Equitable Growth is a nonprofit research and grantmaking organization dedicated to advancing evidence-based ideas and policies that promote strong, stable, and broad-based economic growth. This grant supported a reception at the 2019 annual conference held by the Allied Social Science Association (ASSA). The conference brought together more than 13,000 scholars and economists. On January 4, Equitable Growth’s executive director and chief economist Heather Boushey and Equitable Growth’s academic program staff hosted a reception to speak with scholars and engage in questions about funding opportunities available through Equitable Growth. The ASSA reception provided a great opportunity for Equitable Growth to highlight its grant program, broaden its network of scholars, and strengthen its existing network of scholars.

The Washington Center for Equitable Growth is a nonprofit research and grantmaking organization that advances evidence-based ideas and policies that promote strong, stable, and broad-based economic growth. The center works to determine how rising economic inequality, declining economic mobility, and persistent institutional racism in the U.S. affect economic growth and stability. A core part of its mission is to build a bridge between academics and policymakers to ensure that research on equitable growth and inequality is relevant, accessible, and informs the policymaking process.
for general operating support
The Washington Center for Equitable Growth is a nonprofit research and grantmaking organization dedicated to advancing evidence-backed ideas and policies that promote strong, stable, and broad-based economic growth. It seeks to broaden the impact of funded and network research by serving as a credible, go-to resource for policymakers and journalists on topics related to economic and racial inequality and growth and stability. This is achieved by supporting and building a growing community of scholars who pursue critical economic questions of our time, and driving the economic policy agenda toward addressing key economic issues, ensuring that the academic research is accessible and relevant to policy debates that address economic inequality in the U.S. economy.
