Location: Columbia Law School, Jerome Greene Annex

In collaboration with the Publish What You Pay US coalition, the Quantitative Methods in Social Sciences Program at Columbia University and the Natural Resource Governance Institute, CCSI held a two-day data dive event in which students explored newly available datasets to test the relationship between transparency, company performance, government revenue collection and governance indicators. The questions and datasets used for the data dive are available on the event website. The findings will inform future research of CCSI and PWYP-US.
