Dear colleague,

I am pleased to inform you that from July 5 to 7 we will celebrate the XXXVI annual ASEPELT Congress at the University of Évora (Portugal).

The main theme of the congress is "Inequality, poverty exclusion and political implications for a better world - An applied economics approach" but, as always, the congress includes 10 thematic axes that bring together all the subdisciplines and sensibilities of Applied Economics.

As you can see at http://www.congresoasepelt.com, we are preparing a magnificent event with 4 outstanding Keynote speakers (Frank Cowell, London School of Economics; Elena Barcena, U. Málaga; Jacques Silber, Bar-Ilan University; and Oded Galor, Brown university ), very interesting round tables, a poster session sponsored by the Nobel Prize in Economics Finn Kydland, the traditional ASEPELT awards in support of young researchers, a tribute to prominent economists, two excursions through the Alentejo and other places in our wonderful neighboring country... Already I mean, a magnificent event.

I encourage you to reserve July 5-7 in your agenda to see us in Évora (Portugal) and enjoy some unforgettable days, scientifically and personally.

Receive a very cordial greeting,

Jose-Maria Montero
ASEPELT-President

See you in Evora!
