Harvard University professor Claudia Goldin has been awarded the Nobel Prize in economics for her research on the Gender Gap in the labor market. Goldin's work, which spans 200 years of women's participation in the workplace, highlights the persistence of the gender pay divide despite women gaining higher levels of education than men. While Goldin does not offer specific policy solutions, her research provides valuable insights for policymakers to address the issue. Goldin's award also helps close the Nobel committee's own gender gap, as she becomes only the third woman to win the prize out of 93 laureates.
