The School of Economics of the University of Kent with the support of International Association for Research in Economic Psychology British Academy University of Kent, Canterbury, UK 13th-14th November 2009 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ About the WorkshopThe objective of this workshop is to explore the reasons why people give (or do not give) of their time and money for the benefit of others. To question, for example, why people give to charity or contribute to the provision of public goods. We plan to have approximately 15 talks over two days including insights from economics, psychology and sociology. Speakers will include:

Submissions from PhD or post-doctoral students are particularly encouraged and some travel bursaries are available. There is no fee to attend the workshop. Workshop locationThe workshop will take place at University of Kent in the city of Canterbury around 60 miles south east of London. Canterbury is a popular tourist destination and, hopefully, workshop participants will have time to tour the medieval city centre and visit the famous Cathedral. More information on accommodation and travel will be provided later. SupportFinancial support for the workshop has been generously provided by the International Association for Research in Economic Psychology , and the British Academy (through a research grant on 'Anonymous free riding in collective action problems'). The workshop organizers are Edward Cartwright and Anna Stepanova. The workshop is also being supported by the University of Kent's Centre for Philanthropy, Humanitarianism and Social Justice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^^^ |
