AASLE 2022 CONFERENCE
TOKYO, JAPAN
8-10 DECEMBER, THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO
ABOUT
AASLE is an umbrella for research and communication of scholars from Asia and Australasia, and facilitates interaction with other parts of the world, through the sister organizations in Europe and the US, EALE and SOLE and other initiatives. The annual AASLE conference is set to be a gathering that will support these efforts, as well as encourage discussion and exchange around research, policies and applications in labour economics.
AASLE started as an idea when Christian Dustmann, Bob Gregory, and Xin Meng discussed labour economics in Asia and Australasia, and how much potential there is in the region. The idea became a reality with the first AASLE conference in Canberra in December 2017. The conference was a huge success, with more than 400 people attending. AASLE was legally established in Singapore and held successful meetings in Seoul (2018, organized by Jungmin Lee) and Singapore (2019, organized by Jessica Pan). In 2020 AASLE joined the World Conference on Labour Economics in Berlin for the first time, establishing the society as the third labour economics society, following SOLE and EALE, to represent the Asian and Australasian regions.
What AASLE can be for our community depends on what we make of it. We therefore encourage everyone interested in applied and labour economics to join our society and to help continue its success by participating in our conferences and working with us on new initiatives.
Christian Dustmann, Jungmin Lee and Jessica Pan
