European Committee for LGBTQ+ Economists

 

Purpose

Our committee works to connect LGBTQ+ economists across Europe at all stages of their career, both inside and outside of academia.

We aim to increase visibility of the diverse identities in the economics profession, to provide a platform to highlight the work of economists who mindfully address issues of relevance to the LGBTQ+ community, and to support LGBTQ+ researchers with networking events, mentoring opportunities, and professional development activities.

 

What we are doing

We have everything from mentorship programs for early-career economists, to social events, to the occasional seminar.

We are also collaborating with the Committee on Minorities in Economics at the European Economic Association and with the Diversity Hub at the Royal Economic Society.
