During this troubled period, sharing knowledge is more important than ever. LACEA present a web-page that lists the latest published blogs, websites of webinars and papers on the pandemia. If you have suggestions of web-pages that host relatively regular seminars, you have an article or your latest research is based on COVID-19 Pandemia and you want to publish it on our web-page, please send them to the LACEA secretary at This email address is being protected from spambots.

LACEA 2020 Annual Meeting In light of the current crisis and the uncertainty as to when life will return to normal, we have decided to postpone creating the website and issuing a call for papers for the LACEA 2020 Annual Meeting. We hope to be able to make a more informed decision soon as to the feasibility of our annual meeting. In the meantime, keep working and writing and, most of all, stay in good health. The dates (November 13-15, 2020) and venue of the University of Miami remain unchanged.

El V Seminario Académico del Observatorio, titulado Experiencias de América Latina y Asia en materia de integración regional, tiene como principal objetivo generar un debate sobre las estrategias y políticas que los países latinoamericanos deberían seguir en los próximos años para “dar un salto de calidad” en sus relaciones económicas con Asia (Asia Pacífico, sudeste asiático e India), mediante una reflexión y análisis entre las dinámicas de integración entre regiones, en los ámbitos comerciales, financieros, tecnológicos, de inversión y cooperación, entre otros. En este contexto, se invita a académicos de América Latina y Asia a presentar trabajos que reflexionen sobre las temáticas referidas anteriormente hasta el Junio 30 del 2020. El Seminario Académico es de carácter multidisciplinario, por lo que se dará la bienvenida a contribuciones desde diversos campos (economía, derecho económico, relaciones internacionales, economía política internacional, geografía económica, negocios internacionales, etc.). Se privilegiarán aquellos trabajos que tengan una orientación propositiva. Los trabajos pueden tener un ámbito geográfico amplio (región a región) o local (referido a países o agrupaciones específicas). Se alienta a los autores interesados a presentar trabajos relativos a las relaciones de América Latina con la India y la ASEAN, dos actores de gran importancia que han estado subrepresentados en los trabajos presentados en las ediciones previas del Seminario Académico.

Ecos de Economia is a Latin America journal of applied economics, with a particular interest in the quantitative analysis of economic, financial, and public policy issues and/or themes related to Latin America. Articles that include and analyze national data are particularly welcomed until August 13, 2020, since these data are often unavailable to international researchers outside the region. The journal is not interested in manuscripts that are solely conceptual in nature. Ecos de Economía does not charge any fees for the review or revision of articles. More information here In 2019, the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and the World Bank established the Joint Data Center on Forced Displacement (JDC). In line with its mandate and recognizing the need for robust evidence to inform policy and project design, the Center is partnering with the School of Economics at Universidad de los Andes to organize the Second International Research Conference on Forced Displacement to be held on May 28-29, 2021, at Universidad de los Andes in Bogotá, Colombia. The conference will be preceded by a Policy Forum on Forced Displacement on May 27, 2021. The Center solicits the submission of papers on the collection and analysis of micro data on forcibly displaced populations and their hosts. This second international conference will have a particular – albeit not exclusive – focus on research on internally displaced persons. The choice of the conference venue is therefore not accidental. Colombia has endured over 60 years of protracted conflict and has the highest number of internally displaced persons in the world. Moreover, there is a track record of policies, program design, and academic research related to the humanitarian and development responses to the displacement crisis in Colombia. The Colombian experience can be informative to promote new research and gather attention on emerging scholarship on this important topic from around the world. To be considered for inclusion on the program, completed papers or extended abstracts should be submitted to This email address is being protected from spambots.

The papers chosen for the conference will be selected by a scientific committee comprised of Quy-Toan Do (World Bank), Rema Hanna (Harvard University), Andrés Moya (Universidad de los Andes), and Domenico Tabasso (JDC-UNHCR). Authors chosen to present papers will be notified by January 6, 2021. Economy air travel and accommodation expenses will be covered for one presenter for each paper.

As National Focal Points, the teams would be expected to mobilize research and have experience in research of the education, research or innovation sectors of their countries.
