The one-day workshop provides young labor economists the chance to present and discuss their research. It provides a forum to meet and exchange with fellow doctoral students, post-docs and professors from the field of labor economics. The workshop is targeted at PhD students and aims to facilitate exchange between junior and senior academics. This year, we are happy to announce that Benjamin Arold (University of Cambridge) and Iris Kesternich (University of Hamburg) will be our excellent guest speakers at the workshop.
We are looking forward to submissions from PhD students working on topics in labor economics from a theoretical, empirical or experimental perspective. Equally, we encourage the submission of work in early stages. All projects presented at the BeNA workshop will be considered for the BeNA Innovative Research Award in the amount of €200.
The workshop will take place on May 29, 2026, in Berlin (exact venue to be confirmed).
If you want to present your work, please submit an abstract or a draft of your paper by March 27, 2026, to workshop@labor-research.net. The decision on your submission will be communicated by April 10, 2026.
