We welcome submissions from junior scholars (Ph.D. students and Postdocs) in economics, gender economics, health economics, and sociology. We will be especially interested in contributions that demonstrate how different types of crises affect gender norms, fertility patterns and demographic transition. Topics may include, though are not limited to:
• Gender norms, reproductive behavior, and health outcomes during crises and war
• Gendered impacts of demographic shocks and policy responses
• Demographic adjustment, migration, and population structure during crises
Preference will be given to papers focusing on Central and Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and post-Soviet countries. Submissions should be sent to the following email summeracademy@ios-regensburg.de and include:
• Extended abstracts (up to 2000 words) or full papers
• Presenter’s CV (up to 3 pages) with the contact information
In case of questions please contact Sinara Gharibyan at gharibyan@ios-regensburg.de email.
The conference fee is 236 € (including single room accommodation for two nights, all meals, and coffee breaks). Presenters are expected to cover their travel costs themselves. We offer a limited number of grants to cover accommodation costs for Ph.D. students whose participation cannot be reimbursed by their home institutions.
