The works of the International Conference MAER - NET Colloquium 2021 were successfully completed on Saturday, October 23.

The central theme of the conference, which is also the subject of the international network MAER - NET, is the further development of economics through meta-analysis. It was organized by the Department of Economics of the University of Piraeus, with Professor Chletsos Theologos - Michail as host.
The technique of meta-analysis, which is an objective and quantitative methodology used to synthesize (eg, combine and summarize) the results of research studies conducted on a specific research question in the past to lead to an overall conclusion, is widely used outside of economics and in other sciences such as medicine, psychology, sociology.
