The Haavelmo Lectures
The Haavelmo Memorial Lectures are held biennially to honor the economist and Nobel laureate, Trygve Haavelmo. The lectures started in 2011 with a symposium that marked the hundredth anniversary of Haavelmo's birth and have, with the exception of the Covid pandemic, been held every other year since then.
The Haavelmo Lectures invite leading economists to present their work at the forefront of economics and in relation to Haavelmo’s work with econometrics and economic theory.
