Conference on Behavioural Macroeconomics
22 - 23 June 2009, Sydney
This two-day conference run by the Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis at the Australian National University and the Reserve Bank of Australia brings together leading researchers from the US, Europe and Oceania to present recent advances in behavioural macroeconomics. The themes and papers have a strong theoretical footing, but the workshop’s purpose is to showcase the range of applications of behavioural methods and to display their policy relevance. The workshop will therefore be of interest to academics and research students, to policy makers from central banks and government departments as well as to financial market economists.
