The International Conference on Economics and Development (ICED) is scheduled to be held on June 15 – 16, 2017 in Colombo, Sri Lanka. ICED 2017 is an interdisciplinary International Conference that invites academia, scholars, researchers, economists and policy makers with broad and diverse research interests from around the world to share knowledge, ideas, experiences and establish academic relationships.
Today the global economy faces many challenges including slowing growth rates, a strong dollar and low commodity prices. The emerging economies are mostly faced with these challenges while advanced economies are struggling to strike a balance between growth and sustainability. In this context, ICED 2017 will act as a platform for the researchers to share and enhance their knowledge on economic development and sustainability.
The organizing committee of ICED 2017 has opened up the registrations for potential participants. You are warmly welcomed to take part in this conference and present your research findings, innovative ideas, knowledge and different research methodologies in the discipline of Economics.
