Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP)
The Global Trade Analysis Project (GTAP) is a global network of researchers and policy makers conducting quantitative analysis of international policy issues. GTAP is coordinated by the Center for Global Trade Analysis in Purdue University's Department of Agricultural Economics.Current Highlights
Call for a Co-Editor and Associate Editors
The Journal of Global Economic Analysis (JGEA) is seeking a Co-Editor and two or more Associate Editors. The Co-Editor will join current Co-Editors Thomas Hertel and Niven Winchester in providing strategic leadership, while also performing Associate Editor duties.
Associate Editors support daily operations (finding reviewers, evaluating submissions, advising authors) and help grow the journal by improving its visibility in citation indexes and rankings and refining manuscript management.
Both roles are unpaid, four-year terms starting early 2027. To apply, email a CV and a cover letter explaining your suitability by 30 November 2026 to Ginger Batta (gbatta@purdue.edu).
