On Saturday, November 1, a special session will be held in honour of Robert Cairns, who has been a member of the workshop organizing team since its inception. The day will celebrate his significant contributions to environmental and natural resource economics, as well as industrial organization—particularly his recent research on green accounting and the economic theory of resource sustainability.

This special workshop was made possible through the generous financial support of the Nanji Family Fund, which supports academic programming in the Department of Economics at McGill University.

This event is organized by CIRANO, CIREQ and RRECQ.
