To submit papers to the REGULAR PARALLEL SESSIONS, the authors are required to provide an abstract with two pages of word or pdf file inserted form of document in the conference website. The abstract should include the title of the paper, name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s), introduction and objectives, methods adopted, main findings, conclusions and references. The Scientific Committee will select papers for presentation based on scientific quality and originality. Multiple submissions by the same author(s) are allowed, but each participant will be requested to present no more than one paper.

Selection standards for applications

Although AAERE requires only the submission of the abstract when applying to present, the analysis methods, main findings and conclusion must still be clearly described at this stage. We may reject a presentation if the abstract come under any of the following conditions.

• Abstracts that describe only the research plan
• Abstracts that do not keep the designated number of letter (two pages (11 font of word or pdf file))
• Abstracts with insufficient relevance to the topics discussed by AAERE
• Abstracts intended for personal benefit or that seek to promote political parties, or religions

• To submit a proposal to organize the THEMATIC SESSION, three or four papers connected by a unifying theme are required. Thematic sessions aim to highlight current research on a subject in environmental and resource economics. The Scientific Committee will select a limited number of proposed Thematic Sessions based on scientific quality and importance. The thematic sessions will run in parallel in the same way as regular Parallel Sessions.

  • Each organizer of thematic session could apply for only one thematic session. The organizer must be a AAERE member. Non-members must complete the membership procedures before applying. Please visit the AAERE website if you wish to become a member. The presenter of a thematic session does not have to be a member.
  • The organizer must apply with max 2 pages of written proposal and describe its title, organizer, chairperson, presenters, discussants, and an outline of the proposed session. Please be aware that the organizer should inform the presenters, and discussants of any notices from the program committee.
  • Individual presentation abstracts (two pages for each report of word or pdf file inserted form of document in the conference website.) should be registered separately by the presenters for the thematic sessions. Presenters should insert the title of thematic session just under the name of authors in the first page of the abstract. Presenter at the thematic session could present only once at the regular parallel session if she or he is the member of AAERE.

To submit a paper for the POSTER SESSIONS, the author(s) are required to provide an abstract with 2 pages that includes the title of the paper, name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s), introduction and objectives, methods adopted, and the main findings, conclusions and references. The requirements for formatting of the poster will be provided later. Submissions will be selected by the Scientific Committee based on quality.

Poster Sessions consist of short oral presentations of your research without discussants (10 minutes for oral presentation + 5 minutes for questions from the floor). Poster Sessions do not require the submission of the full paper. Poster Sessions are arranged as parallel sessions with the Regular Parallel Sessions.

Scientific Committee will offer a prize for the best Poster which will be acknowledged as frontier in the field of Environmental and Resource Economics. Please note that only young academics (under 40 years of age) are eligible for the Best Poster Prize. The presenters who want to be a candidate as the Best Poster Prize should write her or his birth dates in the abstracts. The presenter must be a AAERE member.
