It wasn't as clear to me in grad school how much Barbara Geddes shaped me. She always gave these small nuggets of advice (almost under her breath-with no requirements that you listen). This @gldinstitute.bsky.social podcast interview with her has a lot of those & more: soundcloud.com/gldresearch/...

An under-reported element of Colombia's "total peace" plan is called "Jovenes en Paz", which will pay 100,000 at-risk youths ~$250 a month to study/volunteer and stay out of gangs. Seems like a big test for the potential of cash transfers. Hopefully the data will be available at some point (via AP).
