Researcher wins Nobel Prize
Elinor Ostrom, lead principal investigator for SANREM’s long-term research project on decentralization reforms and property rights, has won the 2009 Nobel Prize in economics for her work on how community institutions can prevent conflict. She is the first woman to win the Nobel Prize for economics in its 40-year history.
In announcing the award October 12, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences cited Ostrom “for her analysis of economic governance, especially the commons.” Her SANREM research looks at how policies in developing countries affect the livelihoods of local forest users.
