  • Research methods related to microsimulation (labour supply models, inequality analysis, agent-based modelling, etc)

  • Methodological contributions (synthetic data, data fusion, forecasting methods, machine learning for microsimulation, etc)

Submit your abstract by 28 February, 2026. Notifications of acceptance will be sent around mid-February.
