    Workshop Description:

    The Heartland Environmental and Resource Economics Workshop (HERE) is held at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Topics for contributed paper sessions are chosen based on the submissions we received. The day-and-a-half long workshop typically features:

    • A luncheon with keynote speaker
    • A luncheon with panel discussion
    • Multiple sessions of contributed 20-minute paper presentations
    • One set of short research presentations
    • An evening reception and numerous breaks to share ideas and develop new collaborations
    • Research posters displayed during breakfast and breaks

    The goals of Heartland@Illinois are to stimulate research and build community in environmental economics with some focus on the Midwest. The workshop brings people together to exchange ideas and foster new collaborations.
