ITEA Annual School and Conference 2023

ITEA is pleased to announce that the ITEA Annual Conference and ITEA Annual School on Transportation Economics for 2023 will be hosted by the Department of Economics of the University of Cantabria in Santander, Spain.

The ITEA Annual School will be held on June 12-14, 2023.

The ITEA Annual Conference will be held on June 14-16, 2023.

ITEA’s Scientific and Local Organizing Committees are thrilled to confirm that Dr. Jonas Eliasson of the Swedish Transport Administration will be the keynote speaker. Dr. Eliasson combines his important policy role with considerable academic and research experience, having been professor of transport systems analysis at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) from 2007 to 2017 while currently serving as a visiting professor of transport systems at Linköping University. Therefore, his policy-oriented address will be given from the perspective of a researcher, offering a new type of ITEA keynote talk.

On behalf of the Department of Economics, Professor Ramón Núñez (Chair of the Local Organizing Committee) and all the members of his committee are committed to organizing a vibrant and successful conference. The conference city, Santander, lies in a beautiful location on the northern coast of Spain, providing an inviting setting for the conference and school. The aim of the ITEA Annual School is to provide young researchers with a high-quality introduction to academic research on transportation economics, including many recent advances in the field. The School’s program consists of a series of lectures and tutorials conducted by some of the most prominent researchers in transportation economics. In addition, the students are given the possibility to present their own work at the Conference.

The aim of the ITEA Annual Conference is to promote scientific excellence in the field of transportation economics and to provide a forum for scientific exchange. Research presented at the conference covers both theory and empirical work, including all transport modes and a wide range of research methodologies.

ITEA President’s Message

Dear members of the International Transport Economics Association,

This message is to thank you for being member of ITEA and to welcome you to engage in our association as we work to get back to a new, post-Covid normal. Your support, commitment and contribution to our society is immensely important and valuable, in good times as well as in more difficult ones. I believe that in this time of climate change, pandemics and general unrest in the world, a truly global research society like ours, that deals with key issues with intellectual rigor and honesty and builds bridges between people, countries and continents, in a truly friendly environment is more valuable than ever.

I was the local organizer of ITEA in Stockholm in 2011, and since then I have been lucky enough to have been able to visit all ITEA conferences. Over the years, the researchers in the ITEA community have been immensely generous with their time, ideas, advice, and other resources. For me, this is what ITEA should be about – knowledge spillovers, innovation, inspiration, network building, and support of fellow researchers in a truly sympathetic and helpful environment. So, I would like to underscore my welcome to the new generation of transport economists, and to encourage them to take advantage of the ITEA society and our conferences. I also encourage the more experienced transport economists to continue to engage in our association and with the new generation so generously. And of course, don’t forget to have fun along the way.

As you may know, ITEA has, as many scientific associations, struggled for continuity during the difficult years of the Covid pandemic. Due to the persistent work of my predecessors and a host of committed members of the Executive Committee, ITEA has so far proved to be strong enough to overcome this challenge. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my predecessors as Presidents of the Association: Kenneth Small, Robin Lindsey, Jan Brueckner, Marc Ivaldi, and Sergio Jara-Díaz for having developed such solid association.

The pandemic forced us to organize the annual conference online in 2020 and 2021. Even though the organizers of the online conferences did a truly great job, we were so happy about being able to organize and participate in an in-person conference in (a very hot) Toulouse at the beginning of the summer this year. We thank Chantal Roucolle and her team for the great conference that they hosted.

We are still working hard on finding another host for the ITEA 2023 conference and will soon be back with more information and call for papers. I very much wish to see you there! Let’s hope that the situation in the world improves until then.

Finally, I invite you to renew your commitment to ITEA and to encourage all the transport economists who you know to do the same. You can do this through the ITEA website, or as you sign up for next year’s conference. To check your membership status, you can easily log in to your account on the ITEA website. And don’t forget to submit your best papers to the journal Economics of Transportation.

Regards to all,
Maria Börjesson
President of ITEA
