Conference Venue

Hotel Vila Galé Rio de Janeiro

Rua Riachuelo, 124, Lapa, Rio de Janeiro.

Originally a building contemporary of the Palacio Universitário, where the Workshop was originally intended to take place, the Hotel is conveniently located near the Santos Dumont Airport and downtown Rio, as well as a short ride from the Institute of Economics. Given the success in the call for papers we believe the new venue will provide a more complete infrastructure for our workshop.
