A Conference To Promote Cooperation Between Italy And Canada

(June 14, 2017) The Rimini Centre for Economic Analysis (RCEA) is organizing an interdisciplinary conference “Two Dynamic Paths on a Shared Road: Canadian-Italian cooperation at 150 and 156”. in Toronto, June 17-18, 2017. The conference is organized on the occasion of Canada’s sesquicentennial by the Research Centre for Economic Analysis (RCEA), with the support of the Consulate General of Italy in Toronto and IIC in Toronto. The interdisciplinary conference, which will include participants from social sciences and humanities, has two goals. The first is to celebrate 150 years of Canada and the contribution of Italian-Canadians to Canada’s economic, political, social and cultural development. The second goal is to bring together academics and policymakers from both countries to spur cooperation between Canada and Italy. The main audience at the conference are academic researchers and policymakers, as well as students and the general public, and especially the Italian community. Plenary Speakers: Ken Bartlett (University of Toronto); Luigi Bruti-Liberati (University of Milan). (Red)


ABOUT / THE CENTER


The Rimini Center for Economic Analysis is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to independent research in applied and theoretical economics and related fields. It was originally set up in Rimini, Italy, where some of the founding trustees and scholars have special ties. In 2016 RCEA headquarters moved to Waterloo, Ontario, with RCEA-Italy operating as a country branch. RCEA is the outcome of collaboration between economists from around the world, in particular from Canada and Italy, and a group of eminent trustees from academia, banking, government and industry. Research at RCEA is conducted to enlighten scientific and public debate on economic issues, and not to advance any economic, political or social agenda. RCEA has 200 fellows, including 60 from Italy and 40 from Canada. RCEA fellows have experience in academia and/or government and may hold different points of view on economic, political and social issues. The Rimini Centre for Economic Analysis is ranked 14th among top economic think tanks in the world, higher than any Canadian or Italian center.
