You are invited to experience an intimate discussion with Notre Dame’s most engaging faculty speakers on some of the most pressing and fascinating issues of our times. Each lecture and Q&A is presented on a "home game" Saturday.

“The Power of Evidence: Transforming the Fight against Poverty through Research” is presented by William Evans, Keough-Hesburgh Professor of Economics and James Sullivan, Rev. Thomas J. McDonagh, C.S.C., Associate Professor of Economics. They are co-founders for the Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities.

Come and hear how the Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities (LEO) is answering Fr. Sorin’s challenge to be a “powerful force for good” by using economic research and evaluation to reduce poverty and improve lives through evidence-based programs and policies.

All lectures are free and open to the public.
