Thematic groups will be oriented to cover the following areas:
care economics,
labour market,
philosophy/history of feminist economic thought,

Young scholars are invited to submit their work to be presented and discussed in the pre-conference workshop according to the following criteria:

Master's students- thesis research proposal or chapter from thesis

Researches at the most advanced stage will be included in a YSI panel during the conference. Young scholars whose work will be selected to be presented will be required to serve as discussants for other presenters.
