CALL FOR PAPERS
3rd Agent-Based Macroeconomics Workshop (ABMW)
Policy and finance for sustainable and inclusive growth
20th February 2026
Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)
The third edition of the Agent-Based Macroeconomics Workshop brings together researchers to explore pressing topics at the intersection of economic growth, inequality, green re-industrialization, AI innovation, sustainable finance, and climate change. Taking the approach of modeling the economy as an Evolving Complex System, this edition of the workshop is dedicated to advancing our understanding which policy combinations and finance architectures can foster sustainable and inclusive growth during the twin (green and digital) transitions.
The event welcomes both applied and theoretical research. It will address both global and Brazilian challenges, such as supporting innovation, reducing income and wealth inequality, promoting sustainable economic growth, improving economic stability, and accelerating the transition to a sustainable economy, by means of a combination of rigorous academic studies and practical policy insights.
