    Labor Markets and Innovation during Times of War and Reconstruction

    Online

    The Russian aggression against Ukraine has brought incredible destruction in Ukraine and suffering for the Ukrainian population. In the first two months after February 24th, 2022, economic activities came to a standstill for most Ukrainian workers and firms. However, as time passed, the Ukrainian population has shown its resilience and tremendous courage as economic activity slowly but steadily recovered. Like in many prior conflicts, labor markets and economic production have continued to exist in Ukraine.

About the Workshop
We are pleased to invite submissions for the First IZA Workshop: Climate Change and Labor Markets, to be held virtually on Monday July 5th, starting at 5pm German time/4pm UK time/11am East Coast US time.

IZA would like to encourage new research work in this important area. Global warming is increasing the frequency of extreme climatic conditions across the world. Despite efforts to mitigate the extent of climate change, exposure to extreme events such as heatwaves, floods, and hurricanes will become more prevalent for the entire world’s population. In addition to causing damages to the environment and human health, climate change as well as adaptation to global warming pose challenges for the functioning of labor markets. In particular, this raises questions about the implications of climate change for a range of labor market outcomes, among others human capital formation, migration decisions, location decisions of firms, labor supply and productivity of workers, and labor demand across occupations.

The aim of the First IZA Workshop on Climate Change and Labor Markets is to bring together researchers analyzing these and other implications of climate change or climate change adaptation for labor markets. We hope to allow wide-ranging discussion in this online conference setting.
The opening to the conference will be delivered by Lord Nicholas Stern (London School of Economics).
