FRIES Series
Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Systems Economics & Policy Seminary
The FRIES seminar series brings together researchers from within and beyond ETH Zurich's Institute for Environmental Decisions. Three groups organize the series: the Agricultural Economics and Policy Group (D-MTEC and D-USYS), the Food System Economics and Policy Group (D-USYS), and the Environmental Policy Lab (D-USYS).
Anyone interested in the economics and policy of food, agricultural, and environmental systems is welcome to attend. Each one-hour session features a 30-minute presentation from an internal group member or a visiting guest, followed by a 30-minute open discussion.
We hold all meetings in person at SOL B4 and stream the sessions simultaneously via Zoom. We typically gather on Wednesdays at 16:00, though we occasionally schedule talks on other days at the same time to accommodate visiting speakers.
You can find the upcoming schedule and the corresponding Zoom links in the table below. To receive seminar announcements and session links directly, please register for our mailing list.
