The AAEA Annual Meeting is a perennial cornerstone component of the organization. We look forward to another successful meeting July 27-29, 2025 in Denver, CO at the AAEA & WAEA Joint Annual Meeting. The typical slate of pre- and post-conference workshops, keynote addresses, concurrent sessions, reunions and much more are scheduled, and will again offer attendees numerous learning and networking opportunities.
Core to ongoing successful Annual Meetings is robust attendance and participation of our Members. Meanwhile, some AAEA Members have experienced significant challenges associated with lost employment in calendar year 2025. The AAEA wants to acknowledge this and invites and encourages Members who have lost employment in 2025 to log-in to the AAEA Member Account and see what support is available to partially assist in their attending this year’s Annual Meeting.

Tim BeattyI had the pleasure of welcoming a group of early career scholars and senior mentors to UC Davis in December for the 2024 Early Career Professional Workshop workshop organized by the mentoring committee. I want to thank Zoë Plakias and the mentoring committee for their hard work and dedication to making sure that everyone feels included in the big tent that is the AAEA. It was great to have folks here on campus in Davis. Returning smaller AAEA events to our campuses makes for more interesting and lively settings than our usual anonymous conference hotels. It was a great event and left me feeling like the future of the profession is in good hands.
