Description: Our show today brings a number of female economists to the table to talk about the economy - but specifically: why aren’t more women in this field? What’s in the way of breaking up the “boys club?” We also acknowledge the women who are paving the way forward.

She served as the interim chancellor of UH Manoa and department chair. Konan’s background is in international trade. She has worked extensively in Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, and has been a consultant to the World Bank, the Council of Foreign Relations, the Arab League, and the governments of Egypt, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Hawai’i. Her interests include regional economic integration, trade in services, intellectual property rights, foreign direct investment and energy.
