Research
The Covid-19 pandemic and the consequent lockdown across the world have raised new social and economic issues that urgently require further analysis. Here are the contributions of the TSE scientific community in this regard:
TSE/IAST workshop on “Covid-19 & Economics”
This weekly workshop gathers researchers from TSE and IAST interested by or working on any topics related to the Covid-19 pandemic. It allows researchers (from our community but also outside of our community) to present on-going research, projects under development or already funded, as well as preliminary ideas and findings related to the pandemic. The workshop is transversal by nature and informal.
