Submissions

The third annual Women in Economic Theory Conference will take place on May 15 - 16, 2026 at the London School of Economics (LSE), London, UK. This annual event seeks to offer a platform to present and discuss innovative research in microeconomic theory and to create a research community for future collaboration, mentorship, and professional support.

We invite all interested researchers to submit papers for the Women in Economic Theory Conference 2026. Complete papers are preferred, but we will consider extended abstracts if a complete paper will be ready by April 15, 2026. We will prioritise early- career female and non-binary economists for presentation slots.

Please note, if the committee accepts your paper for the program, we will cover your travel expenses for the conference including accommodation, economy airfare/rail, and transportation. For those whose paper is not accepted and need travel support, we will have limited funds available to help you cover travel expenses.
