Government Economics Network (GEN) Events
Page updated 8 May 2012
The Government Economics Network provides a professional forum for learning, development and networking. We run a range of seminars, conferences and social events throughout the year to encourage the use of economics in public policy decision making and to stimulate debate and discussion on economic and public policy research.
Most of our events are available to members and non-members. Many are free to members. Your ideas for future events are welcome. For event enquiries, to suggest an event topic, or to receive email notification of new GEN events when they are announced, please contact us at gen@treasury.govt.nz.
