Welcome to IIOA!

The International Input-Output Association (IIOA) is a non-profit, scientific organisation founded in 1988. The IIOA today is a thriving, growing and influential organisation with 1005 members spanning 67 countries.

The objective of the IIOA is the advancement of knowledge in the field of Input-Output data compilation and analysis, including improvements in basic data, theoretical insights and modelling, and applications - traditional and novel - of Input-Output techniques. The IIOA delivers its core objectives by supporting young scholars, widening the awareness of the organisation, providing exchange of experience through our global annual IIOA Conference.

The global IIOA community brings together both producers (e.g. national statistical offices) of the statistics needed and the wide range of users, analysts and policy makers to advance knowledge on energy, environment, international trade, financial flows, price and general equilibrium analysis, ecological sustainability and well-being.

We welcome you to browse through the IIOA webpages, contact one of our Council Members, and to attend our annual conferences to learn more of the IIOA and its activities.

Dear IIOA Members and friends,

At the end of June 2026, the joint 32nd International Input-Output & 11th SHAIO Conference will continue the legacy of fostering innovation, collaboration, and impactful research in the field of Input-Output Economics. Following the success of the recent previous conferences in Europe by IIOA and SHAIO, we are thrilled to bring this vibrant community to Seville, Spain, a city rich in history, culture, and a growing hub for economic research. This will be the first joint IIOA and SHAIO conference, marking a significant milestone in the global exchange of ideas.

You find the Call for Papers here.

All important due dates for the event are listed here.

The main conference theme is: "Advancing policy resilience through input-output economics: global, regional, and local perspectives". Input-Output Economics remains a cornerstone for understanding complex economic systems and informing policy decisions. From climate change mitigation to the green transition, digitalisation, and post-pandemic recovery, input-output methods provide critical insights into the interdependencies shaping our economies. The 2026 joint conference invites submissions that explore how Input-Output Economics can enhance policy resilience at global, national, and regional levels.

We look forward to welcoming you at this event!

With kind regards,

Your IIOA & SHAIO Team
