The Economic Society of Australia (NSW) would like to welcome you to the 2012 Australian Economic Forum website.
The Australian Economic Forum 2012 will be held 19-20 July at the Amora Jamison Sydney.
The Economic Society of Australia (NSW) is one of the oldest professional associations in Australia and its charter is to encourage informed public debate. So it is appropriate to bring together international economists, government representatives, business professionals and academics to discuss important current and future economic issues.
Now in its fourth year, the Australian Economic Forum has already established itself as a leading forum for economic debate in Australia. The 2012 Forum provides a unique opportunity for delegates and internationally recognised presenters to engage in the analysis of the challenges facing the Australian economy and possible policy prescriptions which will promote economic growth and the future wellbeing of Australians.
Program highlights for the 2012 Forum include keynote speeches by international economists Professor Sir James A. Mirrlees, Emeritus Professor of Political Economy and Nobel Prize winner and Jagdish Bhagwati, University Professor at Columbia University and a Senior Fellow in International Economics at the Council on Foreign Relations.
The Forum complements other activities of the Society, which include the Emerging Economists and Young Economists networking and mentoring programs, monthly seminars and professional development workshops.
We look forward to welcoming you and your colleagues to the 2012 Australian Economic Forum.
