Lorena Moreno

Economist | PhD Student​
I'm an economist and researcher focused on understanding how households transmit, or break, patterns across generations, whether through policies, behaviors, or structural conditions. My work centers on gender, poverty and inequality, health, education, and child development.

Currently, I'm pursuing my PhD in Economics and Public Policy at Tufts University, building on my economics training from the Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador and graduate degrees from the Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences and the London School of Economics and Political Science. 

Over the past decade, I've worked in public sector agencies leading social programs and cross-agency research projects that analyze large-scale surveys, census data, and administrative records. I combine rigorous quantitative methods with qualitative insights to bridge academic research with real-world policy challenges. I've also worked for international organizations and built strategic partnerships across government agencies, the private sector, and international development institutions.
