University of Manchester


Ralitza Dimova is a Professor of Development Economics at the University of Manchester. Since her graduation from the Catholic University of Leuven with a PhD in Economics, she has worked in a number of countries, including France, Germany and the US. Prior to that she lived and worked for two years in India. As part of a three year project, sponsored by the British Academy, she developed an academic network with four countries in Francophone West Africa. The project resulted in several subsequent research programmes.
