“Our research shapes policy” - Department of Public Economics and the Gender Economics Research Group

[English subtitles, German language video] Sooner or later, everyone will come into contact with the state, whether it be when looking at their pay slip or when it comes to their pension. The Public Economics Department at DIW Berlin conducts research on these topics. It examines how government policy—particularly in the areas of fiscal, tax, and social policy—influences the behavior of individuals, households, and companies, as well as the distribution of resources in society. An important part of the Government Department is the Gender Economics Research Group. It examines gender gaps in the labor market and the impact of tax, social, and family policies on gender equality.
