The Agricultural and Applied Economics Association (AAEA), through its Trust, supports the work of agricultural and applied economists by funding programs, initiatives, activities, and creative endeavors that advance the profession. The general call funds projects aligned with the Trust’s goals for professional development, association participation, and opportunities to broaden members’ horizons.
Priorities include graduate student and early-career professional development, enhancing the AAEA Annual Meeting, and expanding participation throughout the year beyond annual meetings. The Trust also supports outreach to new groups as part of AAEA’s strategic goals for greater inclusion.
