Nordic Annual Environmental and Resource Economics (NAERE) workshop 21.-22.4.2017

First Nordic Annual Environmental and Resource Economics (NAERE) Workshop

21-22 April 2017 in Helsinki, Finland

We are pleased to introduce the first edition of what we hope will become an annual tradition: Nordic Annual Environmental and Resource Economics (NAERE) workshop.

The workshop will be held in Helsinki on 21st and 22nd April 2017 at Economicum (Arkadiankatu 7). It will be hosted by the Department of Economics and Management, University of Helsinki.

We wish to establish an annual workshop with presentations from researchers and graduate students in the Nordic countries who work on topics in energy, environmental and resource economics.

We feel that such a workshop would facilitate collaborative efforts and scientific contacts among researchers working at Nordic research institutions, and thus strengthen the ties between the institutions.
