The EEA Congress is the main European one that covers all aspects of economics, with a scientific program reflecting the very best work in the profession. 

The following lectures will be delivered:

 • Marshall Lecture: Raj Chetty (Harvard University) 

• Schumpeter Lecture: Giancarlo Corsetti (University of Cambridge) • Presidential Address: Rachel Griffith (University of Manchester and IFS) 

The programme will also include numerous other panels, invited and contributed sessions. In addition to the main Congress programme, there will be a reception on the Monday evening, while the Congress Party will take place on the Thursday evening. 

The Local Arrangements Committee (LAC), chaired by Jochen Streb, will ensure that the Congress runs smoothly and are looking forward to welcoming you to Mannheim. Mannheim is a cultural and economic centre of the Rhine-Neckar metropolitan region (2.3 million inhabitants). Mannheim is conveniently located at an ICE/TGV junction and just 30 minutes from Frankfurt International Airport. Nearby attractions are the romantic old town of Heidelberg, the largest Romanesque Cathedral of Europe in Speyer (UNESCO World Heritage Site), the Castle of Hambach, cradle of the German democracy, and the renowned wine region Palatinate where vineyard tours and wine tastings are offered.

Following on from the very successful WinE mentoring retreats held in 2013 and 2014, the WinE Committee is pleased to announce the third Retreat will be held in connection with EEA Mannheim 2015. 

The Retreat will be once again open to early career female economists with positions (postdoctoral fellows, lecturers, researchers) at academic and research institutions and who obtained their PhDs in 2010-2015. The attendees will participate in a series of innovative discussions organized as panels and as smaller groups run by senior mentors. 

The discussions will cover topics such as publishing, writing successful grant applications, networking and career planning, with attention paid to the unique challenges that women may face at different stages of their careers. A number of attendees will also take part in the small group sessions, which will focus on participants’ research papers and provide an opportunity for detailed comment and feed-back from senior mentors in their field. There will also be many opportunities for the attendees to socialise with each other and their mentors during this event. 

Full information on the event and on how to apply for it, will be available from January 1, 2015 on the EEA website.
