November 5th - 6th, 2021

Full Program

One year after our involuntary hiatus, the world is still in the grip of Covid-19. So before hopefully returning to our regular schedule next year, we decided to offer a special half-online / half-offline 5.5. HenU/INFER Workshop on Applied Macroeconomics from November 5^th – 6^th, 2021. Not only did we manage to get you two exciting keynote speakers with Michael Song and Helmut Lütkepohl, but we also convinced them and almost all of our previous keynote speakers to chair a session so you can get high profile feedback on your papers just as you did in our past conferences. There will be a special issue on the Chinese monetary and financial system in China Economic Review, but as always, excellent contributions from all fields of applied macroeconomics are highly welcomed.
