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 the second Friday of each month (excluding June, July, and August) 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 session will be held Friday, November 13, at 2:00 p.m. ET online via Zoom. 

This month's theme is Climate Adaptation. 

  • Homa Taheri (Indiana University Bloomington): "Crop Insurance Subsidies: Enrollment, Yield, and Policy Design in the U.S. Midwest"
  • Maitri Punjabi (MIchigan State University): "Electricity Prices and the Demand for Cooling: Evidence from India"
  • Jiri Havel (University of Rochester): "River Floods and the Misallocation of Flood Defense in an Interconnected EU"
