Dear Colleagues, As you may know, the Community Development/Affairs function of the Federal Reserve System hosts a research conference every other year. We are currently preparing for the 2013 conference, which will be held on April 11-12, 2013 in Washington, D.C. At this time we'd like to share the call for papers, and encourage you and your colleagues to submit relevant work.
We're very excited about this year's theme, "Resilience and Rebuilding for Low-Income Communities", and about seeking a very expansive perspective of community and economic development research to inform policy and practice. The announcement is below.
Please share this with researchers whose work addresses the themes and topics of the conference.
