Jean Hindriks and Pierre Pestieau together with a group of academics in Osaka University (Japan) have decided to renew the annual meeting in public finance between Japan and Belgium. The workshop will be held on March 2-3, 2017 at CORE, in Louvain-la-Neuve.
Attendance is free, but registration is mandatory. To register, simply fill in the online form by February 24.
