This Conference provides a conducive environment for a comprehensive exchange of ideas and discussion on new theoretical and empirical research papers in environmental economics and policy. Themes includes energy issues, climate change, sustainable tourism, circular economy, bio-economy, water management, and international environmental relations. We welcome both papers based on novel quantitative/econometric techniques and papers applying qualitative research methods. Papers explicitly outlining policy implications are encouraged. Doctoral students and post-doctoral researchers are invited to submit papers. These key-issues are of particular interest of the conference:
- Energy and climate change economic modeling
- Energy policies and politics,
- Environmental policy and its instruments,
- Sustainable tourism,
- Sustainable finance,
- International environmental relations, including environmental aspects of international trade,
- Market and non-market valuation of environmental goods and services.
Format of the conference
At the conference, presentations will be made in standard sessions (15-20 minutes presentation, 10 minutes discussion) and egg-timer sessions (5-7 minutes presentation, 3 minutes short discussion). If an accepted paper cannot be presented in person, the author can present it virtually in Microsoft Teams.
The Scientific Committee will select papers on the basis of 300-500 words abstracts. Authors have to structure their abstract as follows: (1) overview and research goal(s), (2) research methods and data, and (3) preliminary results, policy implications and conclusions.
