Dear colleagues,

The Society for the Advancement of Behavioral Economics (SABE) is inviting proposals to organize the SABE session at the Allied Social Sciences Associations (ASSA) meeting in 2021 or Southern Economic Association (SEA) meeting in 2020.

The ASSA is a three-day meeting organized by the American Economic Association (AEA) in conjunction with 58 associations from related disciplines. In 2021 the meeting will take place in Chicago, IL (January 3-5, Hyatt Regency Chicago). The ASSA meeting is very prestigious and therefore of significant importance to SABE. Previous SABE sessions at the ASSA can be found here: 201820192020.

The 90th Annual Meeting of the SEA will be held in New Orleans, LA at the New Orleans Marriott, November 21-23, 2020 (Saturday to Monday). The Southern Economic Association is one of the oldest economics associations in the United States, dating back to a conference held in Atlanta in November 1928.

If you are interested in organizing the SABE Session with the focus on Behavioral Economics, please fill out the Session Proposal Application and send it along with a PDF version of your CV to assa@sabeconomics.org by April 30, 2020.

Please note that priority for organizing the ASSA session of SABE will be given to applicants who have not done so in the past 3 years.

In addition, while a tentative proposal is generally acceptable, a detailed, confirmed, and well thought-out proposal is appreciated, and will be preferred over a more tentative proposal, all things equal.

Applicants will be notified of the outcome no later than May 14, 2020.

Please forward this email to scholars who might be interested in this call for proposals.

Looking forward to your application
