The group was lots of fun, the quality of papers and discussions keeps increasing and we have academics from all over joining. My wish is to have more Croatians (possibly doctoral students and ECRs) involved. So, if you know someone, spread the word!

Stay tuned for the next edition!

🎓 Earlier this week, I was in Split for the 3rd edition of the Croatian Health Economics Workshop. The initiative started in 2023 when Prof. Ana Bobinac, Lana Kovacevic, and myself co-founded CHEA, aiming to develop an academic community in Croatia around the economics of health(care).

Here’s the chart that really nudged me to write this.

The headcount of GP partners aged under 40 has fallen by 53% since 2015.

Overall partner headcount down from 68% ➡️ 48% in same time.

Current policy = ‘let it wither on the vine’. I’m not sure that’s right…..

#EconSky, any sense of whether economists here would like to have a verified "Economist" label show up on their profile and posts, tied to an email verification process?

RePEc'd be able to offer a verified Economist label that ties back to the identity and email address on RePEc.
