About

AAEA is planning for a hybrid 2021 AAEA & WAEA Joint Annual Meeting in Austin, Texas at the JW Marriott. This will not look like a normal AAEA Annual Meeting. So let us start by laying out some key differences.

All in-person attendees are required to be fully vaccinated prior to their arrival at the joint annual meeting.
There will likely be fewer and/or limited attendance social events at the meeting (for example, seated reunions and receptions).
We will adhere to safety policies onsite such as social distancing throughout the meeting space
All attendees will sign a waiver that they understand the risk of attending an in-person meeting and will not hold the association responsible, should they contract a communicable disease including but not limited to COVID-19.
