Conferences & Papers

The central purpose of the Benefit-Cost Analysis Center is to disseminate information to those working in government agencies and academic institutions who use benefit-cost analysis methodology.

Our conferences play an important role in this, and help us in reaching our goal to start a national conversation on standards to follow in applying benefit-cost analysis as a decision-making tool.

Upcoming Events

First Annual Meeting for the Society for Benefit-Cost Analysis: June 25-26, 2008
