envecon 2027: Date and Call for Papers,
Panels and Posters
Submission deadline: 16 November 2026
Call for Papers, Panels and Posters
envecon is the only environmental economics conference in the UK that brings a large delegation of policy makers together with research providers, NGOs, and the private sector. It is a unique opportunity to meet peers, address decision-makers, and discuss the latest research and policy implications in environmental economics.
We welcome papers, posters, and panels demonstrating the application of environmental and behavioural economics to practical policy, business, and societal decisions. Whilst this call outlines some priorities, the conference is open to all submissions demonstrating how environmental economics is applied in practice. Submitting your work may lead to an invitation to present in a UKNEE webinar or submit to the Journal of Environmental Economics and Policy (JEEP), even if it is not selected for envecon.

-
Economic valuation
