> Dear colleagues,

> please find attached a CFP for the 2nd European User Conference (March, 31 - April, 1, 2011) in Mannheim..
>
> The 2nd European User Conference for EU-LFS and EU-SILC, organized by the German Microdata Lab, GESIS, in cooperation with Eurostat,
> will provide researchers with the opportunity to present and discuss their work. In addition to fostering the discussion within the research community on both substantive and methodological issues,
> the conference offers researchers the opportunity to give feedback to the European Statistical System.
>
> Given that the legal bases for EU-LFS and EU-SILC will be revised in the near future the conference offers the unique possibility to discuss needs and wants of the research community with Eurostat.
>
> Researchers of all disciplines (e.g. economics, demography, geography, political science, public health and sociology) who use either EU-LFS or EU-SILC micro data are encouraged to participate and to submit an abstract. Substantive topics may include, among others, all aspects of the European labour market, living conditions, migration,
> income inequalities, poverty and social exclusion. Methodological topics may include e.g. questions of data quality, cross-national and inter-temporal comparability, and statistical modeling.
>
> All presentations must be comparative and include data from at least two countries.
