and 2022, we are happy to announce that we will organize the SEEPS Camp 2023 inFebruary. The purpose of the Camp is to bring together a small group of outstanding
Ph.D. students and young researchers who will lead the SEEPS in the future and toprovide them with opportunities to interact with each other. The SEEPS Camp isexpected to be a platform for young researchers who engage in environmental
economics and policy studies to meet and encourage each other.
Ten participants will present their research plans or outcomes and exchange ideas. They
will have an opportunity to join a panel session with mid-career members of the SEEPS
