+Dynare Summer School 2019 will be hosted from June 3 to June 7, 2019 by École
+Normale Supérieure.
+
+## Goals of the Summer School
+
+The school will provide an introduction to Dynare and to Dynamic Stochastic
+General Equilibrium (DSGE) modeling.
+
+The courses will focus on the simulation and estimation of DSGE models with
+Dynare. The school will also be the occasion to introduce the next official
+major release of Dynare (version 4.6).
+
+The Dynare Summer School is aimed at beginners as well as at more experienced
+researchers. PhD students are encouraged to participate. Time will be devoted
+to the (Dynare related) problems encountered by students in their research.

+## Workshop Organization
+
+This is a laptop only workshop. Each participant is required to come with
+his/her laptop with MATLAB R2009b or later installed. We will provide WiFi
+access, but participants shouldn't rely on it to access a MATLAB license server
+at their own institution. As an alternative to MATLAB, it is possible to use
+GNU Octave (free software, compatible with MATLAB syntax).
