The American Society of Hispanic Economists (ASHE) is a professional association of economists who are concerned with the under-representation of Hispanic Americans in the economics profession at a time when Hispanics represent over 16 percent of the United States ‘ population. Our primary goals include:
• Promoting the vitality of Hispanics in the economics profession through education, service, and excellence;
• Promoting rigorous research on economic and policy issues affecting U.S. Hispanic communities and the nation as a whole; and
• Engaging more Hispanic Americans to effectively participate in the economics profession.
