Previous  WE_ARE - WinE sessions:
- December 2021: Maria Guadalupe (INSEAD and CEPR) shared her reflections on pursuing a career in economics.

- June 2022: Rachel Griffith (University of Manchester, Institute For Fiscal Studies and CEPR), shared her insights on the topic of navigating the publication process. In this session, Rachel drew on her own experience of trying to publish her work, as well as her time spent as Editor of The Economic Journal, to give some reflections on how to navigate the process of trying to get your own work published and take the positives from what can sometimes feel like a brutal experience to help you move forward.
- February 2023: Sule Alan (European University Institute and CEPR) shared her experiences of changing research directions, embracing breadth, and crossing interdisciplinary borders. She also talked about barriers to innovative and risky actions in academia and the difficulty in overcoming these barriers in the publication process.
