ANNUAL WINTER CONFERENCE

The Annual Winter Conference is a paper presentation competition organised by the Editorial Board in collaboration with The Ramjas Economics Society. The conference typically sees a panel discussion by eminent economists followed by the paper presentation competition. The conference began as an initiative for providing a platform for budding economists to showcase their skills and apply theoretical concepts to the real world. Since its inception in 2002, the department has successfully organised 19 conferences which are usually held in February each year.

The Department of Economics, Ramjas College, University of Delhi, organized the 19th Annual Winter Conference on the 20th and 21st of February, 2021. It consisted of the paper presentation competition and a panel discussion on the theme of Caste and Economics. The theme selected to break the monotonous discussions regarding the plunging of the economy due to COVID and its subsequent post-pandemic recovery. We aimed to redirect the focus of popular discussion on an equally important but often overlooked topic in economics: Social Identity.
