Title:"Who Wins, Who Loses and By How Much? Predicting the Current, Future and Spatial Impact of Policy Change using Microsimulation Models"
Professor Ann Harding is one of Australia’s best known economists and has been Professor of Applied Economics and Social Policy and the Director of the National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling (NATSEM) at the University of Canberra since 1993. During the past 16 years Professor Harding has led the development of highly sophisticated microsimulation models and databases, so that policy makers can gain much better information about the likely distributional impact of current and proposed policies. More recently, Professor Harding has steered microsimulation modelling in Australia beyond its traditional 'tax and social security' focus to such new areas as health, aged care, housing and regional issues, with the goal of extending sophisticated quantitative decision-support tools to policy makers in these areas. This research is largely being financed through competitive research grants and government agencies. Professor Harding has published widely on income inequality, poverty, and the distributional impact of government programs, and is a prolific contributor to public policy debate in Australia, with her work typically being cited every week in the media. In 1996 she was elected a fellow of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia and is currently President of the International Microsimulation Association.
