Ning will discuss her research on violence at work, which found important differences in the labour market consequences of violence depending on the gender of the victim.

The study, which she co-authored, used every police report in Finland to identify assaults between colleagues to analyse the economic consequences of violence for victims, perpetrators and firms. 


This event will be particularly useful for those interested in learning about violence against women.

Please note this is a hybrid event and can be joined in-person or online.

Her research interests lie in public economics and labour economics. She is particularly interested in housing and family economics.

Her primary research agenda focuses on the effects of affordable housing policies and educational loans on household behaviour, welfare, and inequality. Beyond that, she also has a broad interest in applied microeconomics, with a special focus on migration and intrahousehold resources allocations. Her work involves both structural form and reduced form analysis.
