On December 5th and 6th, 2024, the IAAEU and the Chair of Personnel Economics organized the TriEcon Workshop on Education Economics. The workshop accommodated ten presentations by researchers from various countries, including Italy, Turkey, the UK, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany. Moreover, we appreciate the attendance of researchers from the Observatoire national de l’enfance, de la jeunesse et de la qualité scolaire located in Luxembourg.
The topics of the research projects covered a wide field. They examined early childhood education interventions, neighbors' effect on college major choice, or performance standards in higher education. Each presentation was followed by an eager discussion, accompanied by a prepared discussion in the case of presentations by PhD students. The workshop more than fulfilled the aim of the TriEcon Workshop series, which also intends to promote networking opportunities besides the discussion of ongoing research. The discussion of the presented projects and the networking continued during a visit to the local Christmas market and the joint conference dinner. We thank all participants for joining the conference and look forward to upcoming TriEcon workshops and the yearly Workshop on Labour Economics.
