About:
The purpose of the group is to meet on a regular basis and discuss major publications or presenter's own work-in-progress in dynamic macroeconomics. The group convenes on Tuesdays, 6-7:30 pm every fortnight at the presenter's university. Please, contact one of the organizers: Alexandre Dmitriev (UNSW), Aarti Singh (USyd) or Stanley Cho (UNSW) if you would like to receive announcements or contribute with a presentation. After the presentation, we usually go for drinks and occasionally dinner.
In 2012, University of New South Wales has kindly agreed to provide funding for expenses related to social events.
Call for Papers: Economics department at Monash University will be hosting the 17th Australasian Macroeconomics Workshop on 12 - 13 April (Thursday and Friday) in 2012. To find more information visit the workshop page at: http://amw2012.org.au
