15th Workshop on Matching Practices in Europe

The Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) is pleased to invite submissions for the 15th Workshop on European Matching Practices.

The workshop will bring together researchers working on the various aspects of assignment and matching in education, labour and related markets, with a view to actively foster interactions between the various approaches used in this area of research (theory, experiments, analysis of field data, policy/market design) and to share expertise on the actual functioning of these markets in Europe. The workshop will include presentations from presenters of selected papers, a keynote delivered by Nikhil Agarwal (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) on the empirical aspects of matching markets and a policy roundtable on “Kindergarten matching practices in Europe”, which will bring together current insights on kindergarten matching from research projects as well as from policy makers and practitioners.
