Dear GLO network and supporters,

The past year concluded with GLO Bonn 2025, the network’s flagship event, supported by the Journal of Population Economics (JOPE). For a detailed report on this impressive gathering, please see LINK.

NOW: Please save the dates for GLO Bonn 2026.

• November 30 to December 4, 2026, once again in hybrid form, both in Bonn and globally.
• The event will take place at the dawn of two major milestones, the 40th volume of JOPE and the 10th anniversary of GLO, both to be celebrated in 2027.
• November 30 to December 2, 2026 will see presentations in-person only with world-wide online access hosted with full hotel capacity by the Gustav Stresemann Institut (GSI) in the heart of Bonn. A great chance to foster academic exchange even after the hour and to bring partners to visit the former German capital in the Christmas season.
• December 3-4, 2026 will be online only with world-wide coverage.
• The program will feature Invited and Contributed Paper Sessions, GLO Job Market Sessions, the GLO VirtYS Session, Special JOPE Paper Sessions, and several Keynote Speeches.

We invite contributions addressing human resources issues in a broad sense, including topics related to labor, population, development, family, fertility, migration, refugees, health, crime, conflict, religion, and behavioral economics.

We are particularly interested in papers focusing on Africa, India, China, globalization, or topics represented in the JOPE Collections.

A Call for Papers will be out in time.
