About Alejandra Díaz-Pizarro

I'm an undergraduate from Mexico City interested in development economics, particularly as it pertains to indigenous groups and land management. Using the work of Elinor Ostrom as a framework, my research focuses on common-pool resource ownership in indigenous communities in Central Mexico, particularly in Cuetzalan, Puebla. I also work in radio and I'm really passionate about the audio form—be it radio or podcasts—as a way to transmit narratives and information.
