8th Banca d'Italia-CEPR workshop on labour market policies and institutions
The eight edition of the Banca d'Italia-CEPR Labour workshop: Labour market policies and institutions took place in Rome on September 25-26, 2025. The workshop aimed at providing leading and emerging researchers in the field of labour economics an opportunity to present their work relevant for understanding the role of policies and institutions in shaping labour supply and demand, as well as in matching workers to jobs.
The welcome address was held by Eliana Viviano, Director in the Structural economic Directorate of Banca d'Italia. The keynote lectures were given by professor Zoe Cullen (Harvard Business School) and professor Christian Dustmann (University College London).

We dedicated a tribute session to Ghazala Azmat. The workshop owes much to her valuable contribution. Her recent passing is a profound loss, which is greatly missed.
Scientific committee: Gaetano Basso (Banca d'Italia), Francesca Carta (Banca d'Italia), Claudio Michelacci (EIEF and CEPR) and Raffaele Saggio (University of British Columbia and NBER).
