7th Canadian PhD and Early Career Workshop

in Environmental and Resource Economics

Call for Participants

The Canadian Resource and Environmental Economics Association (CREEA) invites PhD students and early career researchers working on topics in resource and environmental economics to a 2-day workshop to be held virtually June 16-17, 2021. The deadline for submissions is April 23, 2021. There is no fee to attend.

CREEA welcomes applications from those researching any aspect of environmental economics (environmental behavior, energy economics, climate change, green business or natural resource problems) using theory, empirics or experimental methods, and based in economics departments, business schools, schools of public policy, etc. In previous editions, the workshop has convened around 20 early-stage researchers from inside and outside Canada from institutions such as Yale, Queens, Amsterdam, UBC, Ottawa, Paris, Columbia, McGill, Berkeley, Alberta, Cornell, Oslo, Toronto, Vienna, Calgary, LSE.

Sessions are built around 30-minute presentations, giving participants the chance to expose their ideas and get feedback from junior colleagues and senior scholars. Social time will give an excellent opportunity for participants to network, exchange ideas and experiences and get to know each other. The atmosphere is informal and collegial.

This year’s keynote guests are Sarah Jacobson, Associate Professor, Department of Economics, Williams College and Brandon Schaufele, Associate Professor, Business, Economics and Public Policy at the Ivey Business School, University of Western Ontario. They will provide feedback on presentations and lead economics career workshops (tips on finding research topics, navigating the job market, getting papers published, managing the tenure process, etc.).
