On February 22-24, 2019, the Young Scholars Initiative (YSI) will host its North America Convening in Los Angeles.

Program

With over 150 presenters, 30 mentors, 14 working groups and 300 expected attendees, the YSI North America Convening is the largest gathering of our community in North America to date. The convening will create a vibrant environment in which to explore new economic thinking to help us envision economic thinking free of intellectual barriers, which resonates with reality and serves our global society. Many volunteers have worked hard over the past months to make this convening possible, and we are very much looking forward to welcoming you to join our efforts.
