Australian Gender Economics Workshop 2026

The Australian Gender Economics Workshop (AGEW) is a premier conference dedicated to advancing gender economics in Australia.

Now in its ninth year, AGEW is held in collaboration with the Women in Economics Network (WEN), and brings together a diverse mix of scholars and policymakers from both Australia and abroad.

The workshop serves as a key platform for presenting cutting-edge research on gender-related economic issues and engaging in meaningful dialogue between academics and policy practitioners.

AGEW’s primary objective is to build a vibrant research community committed to strengthening the evidence base that supports more gender-equitable policy and social outcomes.

The program will feature a combination of academic paper presentations, a Capacity-Building workshop, and a policy symposium, providing opportunities for knowledge exchange and collaboration across research and policy domains.
