Dear colleagues,
please find attached the CFP for the 3rd EU-Microdata User Conferences in Mannheim, March 21-22, 2013.
Researchers of all disciplines (e.g. economics, demography, geography, political science, public health, and sociology)
who use either EU-LFS or EU-SILC microdata are encouraged to participate and to submit an abstract.
Substantive topics may include, among others, all aspects of the European labour market, living conditions, migration,
income inequalities, poverty and social exclusion. Methodological topics may include e.g. questions of data quality,
cross-national and inter-temporal comparability, and statistical modeling.
All presentations must be comparative and include data from at least two countries.
The deadline for submissions of abstracts is October 31, 2012. Abstracts should not be longer than 1000 words. The abstract should be informative, clearly state the research question, indicate the dataset(s) used and the countries analyzed.
Proposals should be submitted online via the presentation submission form: http://www.gesis.org/en/events/conferences/european-user-conference-3/submis...
For any further questions please contact the local organizers Christof Wolf (Christof.wolf@gesis.orgmailto:Christof.wolf@gesis.org) and Heike Wirth (heike.wirth@gesis.orgmailto:heike.wirth@gesis.org) and visit the conference webpage at http://www.gesis.org/en/events/conferences/european-user-conference-3/
