Stanford Financial Education Institute Call for Proposals

[Kristine Farrar Koutout]

Greetings,

I am sharing the below announcement, for which experimental papers are welcome.

The 9th Cherry Blossom Financial Education Institute will take place on April 25-26, 2024, at Stanford University—the pioneering academic conference on financial education making its debut on the West Coast.   

Submit your papers by February 25, 2024, to become part of an institute modeled after the NBER Summer Institute, dedicated to fostering innovative research on financial education. As in previous editions, we will present the "Financial Literacy Research Award," recognizing the best-submitted paper with a prize of $5,000. Additionally, the "Rising Financial Literacy Scholar Award" will honor the best poster presentation by a PhD student, offering a prize of $1,000.  

The Institute aims to provide an ongoing forum for presenting and discussing financial education research, promoting excellent work in this field that informs educational policy and helps identify effective financial education programs. We invite research submissions covering all aspects of financial education, whether in primary and secondary schools, colleges and universities, workplaces, or other settings.   

The Institute is particularly interested in papers that assess the effectiveness of financial education and its influence on financial behavior and other outcomes. Academic faculty and researchers in economics and related fields studying financial education are encouraged to submit papers. We also welcome the submission of abstracts or papers from advanced PhD students. The program includes a special session dedicated to student research and a poster session.
