Misurina (BL) - Italy.
August 30 - September 2, 2022. [Bando MIUR PRIN 2017]
This workshop aims at creating the bases for a fruitful collaboration among statisticians and demographers in terms of future research directions on mortality modeling and forecasting.
Jointly organised by Bocconi and Padova Universities, within the research project SELECT.
Misurina is located at the North of Italy, in the Dolomites (see map).
A Shuttle service from and to Venice Airport will be provided for those who make request. If you want to book your seat on shuttle service please fill in this form.
The workshop will take place at the Grand Hotel Misurina.
