Hi #EconSky,
Do anyone have the .bib file of matching and market design literature?
It will really be helpful if some one can share this on a website or to me. I know this exists for devecon
Thanks.

That was kind of my assumption, too. Like, I think my assumption was closer to (b) but only for DevEcon, because of the funder incentives and J-PAL.
As a Nancy Cartwright stan it annoys me that J-PAL is the main professional org for me in Boston.

Looking forward to this one! And for all Econ PhD students in Bavaria who might be taken aback from the „DevEcon“ sign, DevEcon is quite a cross-sectional field in Econ, many labor/migration/environmental &co topics would be part of it . Try applying first (and check suitability second 😉)
@jisteinert.bsky.social, Andreas Landmann, and I are organizing a Bavarian PhD Workshop in Development Economics in July! Goal is to strengthen the regional network among PhD students in Bavaria who work on DevEcon. Please spread the word and apply/drop by! :) Deadline May 4.
