EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION OF YOUNG ECONOMISTS

The European Association of Young Economists (EAYE) is an association run by volunteer young economists for young economists. The primary objective of the association is to foster interactions between young non-tenured researchers in economics.

The association is well-known for its annual conference, the Spring Meeting of Young Economists (SMYE). Created by Uwe Dulleck and Achim Wambach in 1996, the SMYE had 30 participants in its first edition. Today, the SMYE has become an international event. It has been organized in 13 different countries, gathers around 150 young researchers and usually receives around 700 submissions every year.

In the last years, the EAYE has developed its activities. It now also organizes thematic workshops and sessions at the EEA-ESEM Congress dedicated to topics especially important for young economists. The EAYE promotes the work of young economists regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender identity/expression, sexual orientation, disability and economic status. It relies on the values of research excellence, transparency, inclusiveness and openness. Every young economist is welcome to propose new activities in line with the objectives and values of the EAYE.

You can find the current members of the EAYE board here.
