December 7 and 8, 2023: T H E Christmas Workshop at the University of Hohenheim

The Winter School at THE Christmas Workshop was held by Prof. Andreas Moxnes, PhD (University of Oslo). She summarized the results of a number of recent studies on the importance of international production networks. Against the background of supply chain problems and trade barriers, these findings are important for understanding the development of international value chains and their contribution to productivity and growth.

Nine papers were presented at the Young Researcher Workshop. The Best Paper Award went to Martin Kroczek and Dr. Philipp Kugler (both IAW) for their paper "Heterogeneous Effects of Monetary and Non-Monetary Job Characteristics on Job Attractiveness in Nursing".

The THE Christmas Workshop is a joint project of the School of Business and Economics and the Institute for Applied Economic Research e.V. (IAW) at the University of Tübingen and the Institute of Economics at the University of Hohenheim.
