Mentoring Organizations

The number of associations of women economists around the world is growing. All provide mentoring for economists, organize conference sessions, promote research on gender issues, and raise awareness of issues of particular concern to women in the economics profession. While these organizations may focus on women, there are many positive spillovers for men. Much of the information and advice freely disseminated by these organizations can be of value to all economists—especially to any junior economist—whether male or female, and whether minority or not.
