Kudos to Prof. Gedeon Lim for His Insightful Research on Inter-Ethnic Relations!
We’re happy to share that the article Prof. Gedeon Lim contributed to, titled "How does interacting with other ethnicities shape political attitudes?" has been published on VoxDev! In this research, it examines how living near resettlement sites for ethnic minorities in Malaysia can shift political preferences. His findings reveal that closer proximity not only improves economic outcomes but also fosters casual interactions in shared public spaces. VoxDev serves as a vital platform for economists, policymakers, and practitioners to discuss key development issues, making expert insights accessible to a wide audience. Join us in exploring Prof. Lim’s contributions to understanding how inter-ethnic contact can drive positive social change! Read more here: https://bit.ly/3Cu2938
