Tax-benefit Microsimulation Analysis Request

The United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNU-WIDER) invites proposals from qualified researchers for detailed economic analysis. The main objective of this request is to improve our understanding of tax-benefit systems and their role in developing countries.

About the Project Background

This research initiative, part of UNU-WIDER's 2014-18 research programme, aims at deepening our understanding of tax-benefit systems and their implications in developing countries. We have launched a major project SOUTHMOD – simulating tax and benefit policies for development.

Key Objectives and Deliverables
  • Understanding better the role of tax-benefit policy in developing countries regarding poverty reduction and inequality.
  • Contribute to a better understanding of modelling behavioural effects within tax-benefit microsimulation models.
  • Push the limits of tax-benefit microsimulation models in areas posing challenges when applying tax-benefit microsimulation in a developing country context.

Researchers are free to base their analysis on the microsimulation model of their choice, including but not restricted to the microsimulation models developed under the SOUTHMOD project.
