The Department of Economics at the University of Otago
will host the 4th Otago Workshop in International Trade on March
27 and 28, 2009. Keynote speakers will be
Joseph Francois
Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria, and
Nicolas Schmitt
Simon Fraser University, Vancouver, Canada.
The workshop is intended to bring together a small
group of trade economists, and consequently there will only be plenary
sessions. You will find the call for papers on this website in September
2008.
The University of Otago is located in Dunedin
on the South Island of New Zealand. Dunedin is best reached by airplane,
with direct connections from Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch
and (on certain days) Sydney. The end of March is late summer in
New Zealand which is usually a very settled and fine weather period
in this area. Dunedin is famous for its university and the Otago
Peninsula which hosts an albatross colony and is the only place
in the world where you can see yellow-eyed penguins. Queenstown,
Fiordland, including the world famous Milford
Sound, and the lakes and vineyards of Central Otago are reachable
within a few hours drive.
If you have any further questions about the workshop,
please contact one of the local organizers Frank Stähler (fstaehler@business.otago.ac.nz)
or Niven Winchester (nwinchester@business.otago.ac.nz).
