About ESSLE
|
ESSLE is designed to bring together economists in the field from across Europe and key researchers from outside the region. It provides a unique opportunity for researchers from different universities and countries to discuss their work in a relaxed atmosphere and to develop long-term collaborative relationships. Another important aim of ESSLE is to provide young researchers with the opportunity to meet and discuss their work with senior economists. Paper proposals are invited in any area of labor economics.

Important Information
| ESSLE 2008 will bring together around 40 economists for a period of Three days (arriving in the evening of 8th October and departing on the Morning of 12th October). To foster the desired interaction we request that participants stay for the entire duration of the Symposium. The program combines focus and contributed sessions with time for collaboration and consultation. Some researchers will be asked to present their work in a poster session. Funding for all participants' accommodation and meals is ensured, but only limited travel funding will be available for this conference. CEPR cannot at this stage commit to financing the travel expenses of all participants. We would therefore encourage you, wherever possible, to draw upon research travel funding you may have at your disposal. Please indicate on your reply form whether you will be able to cover your own travel costs or whether you will require funding from CEPR. Where CEPR does contribute to travel costs, this will be in accordance with the new CEPR Travel Guidelines. |
