Opportunity description
United Nations University World Institute for Development Economics Research (UNUWIDER) will organize a two-day conference on public economics for development, in Maputo, Mozambique on 5-6 July 2017. The conference focuses on the lessons from modern public and development economics which can guide policy makers to reform tax and public provision systems. An important goal of the conference is to identify avenues for future research.
With that objective, the conference will bring together about 150-200 participants from the academic, government, and development communities from all over the world and provide a forum to discuss innovative, theoretical, and empirical research. The conference will consist of plenary sessions with keynote speakers, parallel sessions with contributed papers, and a poster session.
Particularly encouraged are submissions from early-career, female, and developing country researchers.
