By CIHEAM-IAMM (France), INRAE -Université Paris-Saclay (France), and Université de Carthage – L.R . Modélisation et Analyse Statistique et Economique-ESSAI (Tunisia),

In partnership with CERDI – Université de Clermont-Auvergne (France), CREAD (Algeria), and with the support of the Francophone Economics and Political Science Department of Cairo University (Egypt) and ENSA, Université Ibn Zohr (Morocco).

This Mediterranean day is devoted to the presentation of work in mathematical, statistical and econometric modelling of economic phenomena.

It is dedicated to the work of researchers from around the Mediterranean or working on themes of interest to this region, with a particular focus on the work of young researchers (doctoral students, post-doctoral students) from both sides of the Mediterranean. Participants will come from France, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Greece and Egypt.

This meeting aims, on the one hand, to promote the work of young researchers in this region by giving them the benefit of the experience of more experienced researchers. It is also an opportunity to meet and exchange ideas, to consider partnerships for international projects and to build a lasting network of young Mediterranean researchers.
