The World Inequality Lab is organizing the third edition of the World Inequality Conference, to be held at the Paris School of Economics on June 4-5, 2026.

Objectives

The conference will centre on two main objectives:

  • Launch of the Global Justice Report: A Plan for Equality & Prosperity within Planetary Boundaries in 2100.

The Global Justice Project explores what a just distribution of socio-economic and environmental resources could look like at the global level from 2025 to 2100 – both between and within countries – in a way that is compatible with planetary boundaries.
