At EARNCon 2024, we will lay the groundwork needed for an equity-enhancing, worker-centered, state and local research and policy agenda for 2025 and beyond. The annual EARN Conference, hosted in partnership with the Economic Policy Institute’s Program on Race, Ethnicity, and the Economy (PREE) will highlight transformative ideas and campaigns to advance racial, economic, and gender justice, and provide space to build skills and strategize together – all while growing and strengthening a community of researchers, policy experts, and grassroots organizers.
