Stephan Klasen is one of the pioneers in expanding development economics research, particularly in Europe. I applied for the fellowship because I thought that the fellowship time will provide me with an excellent opportunity to meet, network and connect with researchers with mutual research interests. I also believe that working in a well-resourced, strong and healthy research environment will help me to develop and advance my research ideas better.
During the fellowship time, I would like to develop my current research by presenting and discussing my work with colleagues and faculty at the department. I am confident that this will help me advance my current research and will pave the way for potential future collaborations.
Apart from academic learning, during the fellowship time, I hope to learn more about German history and culture.
First: Beautiful, small and green city.
Second: Göttingen is one of the best places to experience a wide range of sports activities (hiking, biking, trekking, and swimming).
Cooking and reading. I also enjoy biking and long walks in the forests.
