The WPD seminar is a well-established bi-annual event that has been organized within the S.E.R.G. team for more than five years. It provides a dedicated forum for discussion, exchange, and constructive feedback.


The upcoming edition (from 2 to 3 September 2025) will take place over the course of two days and will feature presentations from researchers of the S.E.R.G. Each paper will be discussed in detail, with comments and suggestions provided by both a junior reviewer and a senior reviewer, fostering dialogue and supporting the development of ongoing research.


In addition to these sessions, the seminar will also host two distinguished keynote lectures:
 

  • Nicolas Astier, Professor of Economics, Paris School of Economics
  • Richard Green, Professor of Economics, Imperial College London
     

These keynote addresses will offer broader perspectives and insights, complementing the research presentations and enriching the overall program of the seminar.
