Annika Lindskog is a Lecturer at the Department of Economics with Statistics at the University of Gothenburg. Her research focuses on development economics with emphasis on health, gender, and educational disparities. She investigates topics such as the long-term impacts of cultural interventions on gender norms, son preference in education systems, and HIV/AIDS epidemiology linked to socioeconomic factors. Current projects include analyzing cash transfer programs in India and the persistence of female genital cutting in Africa, funded by the Ragnar Söderberg Foundation. Lindskog has co-authored over 30 peer-reviewed articles in journals like the Journal of Development Economics and Health Economics. Her work combines microeconomic theory with econometric analysis to address questions of human capital accumulation, risk behavior, and policy effectiveness.
Teaching areas include development economics and health economics. Notable publications explore gender-based educational inequalities in India, condom negotiation among sex workers in South Africa, and the relationship between education reforms and HIV transmission in Botswana. Lindskog collaborates frequently with researchers like Heather Congdon Fors and Dick Durevall. Her research spans multiple continents, with fieldwork in Ethiopia, Malawi, and sub-Saharan Africa more broadly.
Lindskog’s methodological approaches integrate qualitative case studies with large-scale demographic datasets. Her recent work on historical disease exposure’s influence on government pandemic responses highlights interdisciplinary connections between development economics and public policy. Despite no listed awards, her extensive publication record and grant-funded research demonstrate academic impact.
