The Real Estate Department of the Wharton School and the Research Department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia will host the 14th annual Conference on Urban and Regional Economics (CURE) on December 1-2, 2022.

This year's conference will be held in person at the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia. The conference will run for two days, from the morning of Thursday, December 1 through the afternoon of Friday, December 2.

The goal of the conference is to provide extensive discussion of new and innovative research in urban and regional economics. Previous editions have convened 40 or more economists from around the world to present, discuss and participate in the workshop.

The conference will cover meals for all participants but, at this stage, can only commit to financing the travel costs of presenters and discussants. Of course, if you have alternative sources of funding, please indicate your willingness to use these sources. This will help fund travel for participants who do not have other sources of funding, young researchers in particular.
