New Instituto MA student publishes demographic and human development studies

Luis Palomino, in-coming student in the MA in International Studies with a concentration in Latina/o and Latin American Studies, is co-author of two recent scholarly publications in Perú. One article, “Determinantes de la evolución del número de casos y muertes por COVID-19 en el Perú: movilidad, geografía y desarrollo económico,” tracks changes over time in COVID mortality/morbidity, according to measures of socioeconomic development and human geographical mobility in different places. The second is a book-length study, Estimación del PIB a nivel subnacional utilizando datos satelitales de luminosidad: Perú, 1993-2018, examining the possible use of satellite-measured luminosity of places in Perú as an alternative indicator of GDP. Felicidades, Luis!
