The WBG 1st Annual Early Career Network Conference ‘Gender Budgeting and Public Policy Design for Gender Equality’ will focus on gender budgeting as a feminist economics tool to bring about change. We invite our members who are in the early stages of their research careers (students, early-career academics, civil servants, voluntary workers or third-sector researchers) and working on these and related topics to present their research on 11 November 2019 at the University of Liverpool.

Please submit an abstract of no more than 250 words through this form until 30 September. We will inform participants of the decision shortly afterwards.

We have a small amount of travel bursaries to contribute to expenses of members who will be presenting.

We particularly welcome papers that focus on the impact of public policy on women, and on the economic circumstances and challenges of specific groups of women (e.g. BME, disabled, young, old, migrant, lesbian, etc).
