Details
Sessions will focus primarily on issues encountered by underrepresented groups in economics, finance, and central banks.
We invite papers drawn from a variety of methods, perspectives, and disciplines and especially encourage submissions from groups traditionally less represented in economics and finance. We expect that most papers will cover academic-style research. We are also open to studies from practitioners or involving other professions that draw on or shed light on the experience in the economics, finance, and central banking professions, or that highlight the effects of practice steps to increase diversity and inclusion.
Areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
• What benefits do diversity and inclusion convey to organizations?
• How can the fields of economics, finance, and central banking better attract and retain members of underrepresented groups?
• What are the obstacles to greater diversity and inclusion in these fields, and what steps can be taken to overcome them?
