On Tuesday, April 25 at Stanford Libraries, Avik Roy, President of the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity, and Karen Jagodin, Director of Vabamu, will discuss “How the Estonian Model Can Expand Economic Opportunity in America.”

At its best, the United States is a dynamic society in which people can rise from humble origins to achieve amazing things. But many Americans still struggle to rise, due to the increasing cost of living, inflexible public services, and barriers to economic and political competition. In many of these areas, tiny Estonia has leapfrogged the U.S. with its remarkable digital infrastructure. How can the Estonian model help Americans do better?

RSVP at – How the Estonian Model Can Expand Economic Opportunity in America (google.com) – to attend in person; a livestream will also be available.
