What information do we need to introduce good economic policies? Have we learned anything from the pandemic? In the Talking Economics Podcast, Katarína Stehlíková meets with CERGE-EI's Filip Pertold and takes a closer look at data and its role in effective government.
“We’ve learned from the Covid-19 pandemic that data is the key to keeping track of a pandemic and focusing on policies that will help the economy,” Filip Pertold says.
You can listen to the Talking Economics Podcast on several platforms, including Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Anchor.fm, and Youtube.
Filip Pertold is a CERGE-EI Ph. D. Alumnus, researcher, and research coordinator in our academic think-thank IDEA. He has also worked as a researcher at Aarhus University in Denmark, at the World Bank, and at the University of Illinois. The economist actively participates in public debates on education, the public economy, and the labour market.
