64th ERSA Congress – Regional Science in Turbulent Times. In search of a resilient, sustainable and inclusive future

26 – 29 August 2025│ Athens, Greece

The 64th ERSA congress will be held from 26 to 29 August 2025 with onsite participation only. The ERSA2025’s edition will focus on “Regional Science in Turbulent Times. In search of a resilient, sustainable and inclusive future”. This theme is explicitly related to the contemporary challenges that people and places are facing today and to how Regional Science can reflect and interact with these challenges. The economic crisis, the refugee crisis and the pandemic are some representative examples of the unprecedented intensity and prolonged duration of the sequential crises that have been experienced. The field of Regional Science is made up of a dynamic association of scientists and policy makers who are engaged in understanding, analysing, and promoting policy proposals that will lead to a more resilient and inclusive future for people and places across the globe.

With approximately 800 participants every year from all continents, the ERSA congress has become the largest academic conference in regional science worldwide. There is simply no better place to present your research results, get precious feedback and network as well as find out about new developments in the field, and also meet colleagues and friends.
