Southern Economics Association (SEA) 96th Annual Meeting

November 21-23, 2026
Marriott Maruis Houston 
Houston, TX

DEADLINE: 1 April 2026
 
CSWEP (Committee on the Status of Women in the Economics Profession) will sponsor several sessions at the Southern Economics Association Meetings to be held 21-23 November 2026 at the Marriott Marquis Houston, Houston, Texas.

Orgul Ozturk (CSWEP Southern representative) will organize several sessions in applied microeconomics fields.  Among the topics of interest are demographic shifts and social policy response, fertility and reproductive control, food insecurity and the differential impact of health and education policy by race and gender in the short and long run. We welcome papers using a variety of methodologies, both theoretical and applied approaches. Papers in these areas are particularly solicited, although submissions in other areas will also be considered for potential separate sessions. (Extended abstracts will be considered if a full paper draft is not available.) Proposals for complete sessions (organizer, chair, presenters, and discussants) are encouraged. Session submissions should include: (1) paper abstracts; (2) name, email address, and affiliation of all authors and session participants; and (3) which author will present each paper if accepted.
 
The deadline to submit a paper or session is April 1, 2026.  For more information please email Orgul Ozturk, CSWEP Southern Representative, odozturk@moore.sc.edu and request a link for submissions.
