Causal Inference with Spatial Data: Intersection of Labour and Housing Markets

10/09/2026, 12:00 - 11/09/2026, 15:00, Essen

Labour and housing markets are deeply interlinked: residential location preferences shape where people search for work, and job opportunities affect where people look for housing. Thus, many current challenges, such as lack of affordable housing in cities, local decarbonisation and transformation of the labour market, affect both labour and housing markets. The fourth ‘Causal Inference with Spatial Data’ workshop, organised by Forschungsdatenzentrum (FDZ) Ruhr at the RWI – Leibniz Institute for Economic Research and the University of Duisburg-Essen, will specifically investigate the intersection of those two markets, bringing together early-career and senior researchers working on topics related to housing and labour economics.
