Report The research school plus funded my research stay at UNECA (United Nations Economic Commission for Africa) in Addis Ababa, which gave me the opportunity to work with an international organization, meet contacts in my field of research and work on politically, and for my dissertation, highly relevant issues. The time was invaluable for my PhD thesis and overall career development. During the five months research stay I contributed to the flagship report of the UNECA, the Economic Report on Africa, and I conducted an empirical analysis which will be published in the organization's journal. On the whole, my stay was very educational and helpful for my thesis and future research networking. www.uneca.org/our-work/regional-integration-and-trade
