16th ANNUAL CONFERENCE of the EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND RESOURCE ECONOMISTS (EAERE)
Gothenburg, Sweden, 25-28 June 2008

Deadline for applications for conference grants: 1 February 2008
Deadline for early registration: 30 April 2008
Dear Friends,
We are very pleased to invite you to Gothenburg, Sweden, to participate in the 16th annual conference of the EAERE. The conference will be held at the School of Business, Economics and Law, Göteborg University, situated right in the centre of Gothenburg. The city of Gothenburg is the second largest city in Sweden, still it is small and cosy. The centre is concentrated so most hotels will be close to the conference. The surrounding countryside is a midsummer night dream - forests, lakes and a big archipelago with thousands of islands. In June the sun only dips into the sea for a few hours and it never gets dark, so it is a good idea to stay an extra day or two to explore. We look forward to welcoming you to Gothenburg, and we are determined to make sure the conference will be equally memorable for its academic interest and its social events.

Co-chairs for the EAERE Conference
