The 3rd Call for Papers

The 14th International Symposium on Human Capital and Labor Markets

Celebrating Release of the China Human Capital Report 2022

China Center for Human Capital and Labor Market Research (CHLR)

Central University of Finance and Economics


December 16-17, 2022
Beijing, China

The conference will mark the release of the 14th annual China Human Capital Report-2022. It will feature distinguished keynote speeches, plenary and parallel sessions on critical topics related to human capital and labor markets on December 17 preceded by an onsite reception on December 16 if the situation permits. The meeting will be a hybrid of in-person and virtual event.


This year’s conference is also a tribute to honor Harvard University Professor Dale W. Jorgenson (https://scholar.harvard.edu/jorgenson/home) who was the co-founder of the Jorgenson-Fraumeni human capital measurement and provided strong support to the CHLR and the China Human Capital Report from the beginning.
