Virtual Events

AERE periodically organizes virtual events typically held online via Zoom.

AERE @ OSWEET

AERE@OSWEET is a supportive and constructive online forum where scholars—particularly graduate students, postdocs, early-career assistant professors, and scholars who identify as part of groups underrepresented in economics—share environmental and natural resource economics work. Each OSWEET takes place on a Friday from 2:00 - 3:30 p.m. ET online via Zoom. Talks are short and sweet—three papers per session, with 14–minute presentations plus 5 minutes of friendly Q&A (no discussants), followed by an optional happy half-hour. Papers will not be circulated, and recording of any kind is not allowed. 

The next AERE @ OSWEET event is scheduled for Friday, October 11, 2024, from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. ET featuring three exciting talks on agriculture, economics, and the environment: 

  • Irrigation infrastructure and agricultural development in the long run: Evidence from the Senegal River Valley - Joel Ferguson (Stanford)
  • Understanding the drivers of cover crop adoption in the US Midwest using satellite data - Na Zhang (UIUC)
  • Compensation mechanism, program scale, and the efficiency of payment for ecosystem services programs - Micah Cameron-Harp (Kansas State)
