2013 AAAE Student Panel

Come enjoy some pizza as you listen to three young economics students from across the region share their research and discuss the relevance of their findings for Atlantic Canada. Their presentations will address such questions as: What are the key factors that determine the natural rental vacancy rate in Canadian cities and what implications does this have for housing policy? What impact does increased health insurance have on health outcomes, particularly for the poor, and how does this affect the savings rate of households? And what are the most effective ways to reduce household energy consumption?
