Revisiting Macroeconomic Management in Times of Crisis and Beyond – Parallel Sessions – March 27
FromMar 26, 2022 To Mar 30, 2022
Online Webinar
ERF annually holds a highly visible conference that concentrates on issues of high relevance to economic policy in the region. This flagship event draws on the contributions of senior policy makers, distinguished academic researchers as well as referred open call papers to promote region-wide and international knowledge and evidence-based development and public policy debates and mentorship of promising researchers.
This year the annual conference is held under the theme of “Revisiting Macroeconomic Management in Times of Crisis and Beyond”. This is a timely topic in the light of the changes implied by the pandemic at the economic, social and digital levels. This choice also reflects an overwhelming consensus among the ERF community of researchers and policy makers. Eighteen parallel sessions will be held during the course of two days (March 26 and 27, 2022).
For March 27, 2022, nine parallel sessions are going to cover a wide variety of topics that would concern the ERF community and beyond. Details for these sessions are listed below.
