Theodor Kouro
Hi! I am a PhD candidate and a Junior Researcher at CERGE-EI in Prague (a joint work place of Charles University and the Economics Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences). I joined John List's team as a visiting scholar at the Kenneth Griffin Economics Department, University of Chicago during Fall, 2023.
My research spans behavioral, experimental, and development economics, with a strong interest in gender economics. In particular, I explore the role of autonomy/agency on prosocial behavior in charitable giving and volunteering effort, emphasizing the behavioral mechanisms driving agents to increase giving and effort. I conduct large-scale natural field experiments in relevant settings and collaborate with large NGOs such as UNICEF, corporations, and, more recently, government institutions in Albania. Currently, I am working on several large-scale field experiments in Albania in collaboration with established researchers and partnership with the Albanian government.
Here is my CV
I will be on the 2024-2025 Academic Job Market!
