Dear Pardee RAND Community,

As frequent coauthors of RAND research, our students often have a real-world policy impact before they even graduate. One recent report stands out to me, and I’m thrilled to share it with you.

The Trade-Offs of Ukraine's Recovery: Fighting for the Future, by students Khrystyna Holynska, Jay Balagna, and Krystyna Marcinek, reflects their professional expertise, their personal experience, and their passion for policy.

You can read more about it in a Q&A with the authors.

This kind of experience—the opportunity for students to pursue meaningful, influential, and life-changing policy analysis under the mentorship of some of the best researchers in the world—is one of the things I love most about Pardee RAND. I couldn't be more proud of the research our students and faculty do!

With kindest regards,

Nancy Staudt
