The Australasian Trade Workshop (ATW) is an annual conference of trade economists in Australasia that is hosted by a different university in the region each year, co-ordinated by Benedikt Heid, Onur Koska and Frank Stähler.
It has its origins in the Otago Workshop in International Trade, a trade conference organized at the University of Otago in New Zealand from 2006 to 2009, and it moved to Australia under its current name in 2010.
The last conference (ATW 18) was hosted by the School of Economics and Finance at QUT, Brisbane, Australia, on the weekend of 15-16 March 2025, with local host Prof. Pascalis Raimondos.
The next meeting (ATW 19) will be hosted by the Deakin Business School at Deakin University, Melbourne, Australia, on March 20 and 21, 2026. You find the Call for Papers here.
