Development Research Seminar series
Join us for the Development Research Seminar series!
The International Development Studies Group of the department of Human Geography and Spatial Planning at the Faculty of Geosciences of Utrecht 木瓜福利影视 is thrilled to announce the launch of the Development Research Seminar series. The series will run mostly on the 15th of day of the month during 16-17 hours via the for now and hopefully soon in a hybrid format on location at Utrecht 木瓜福利影视.
With a special but not exclusive focus on the Global South, the series aims to discuss the cultural, economic and environmental distribution relations and implications of mainstream and alternative development models and projects on different groups along citizenship status, class, gender, generation, ethnicity, nationality, race, religion and any other contextually-relevant socio-cultural attribute.
Thematically, the Development Research Seminars span a wide variety of topics shaping human and planetary wellbeing. These include, but are not limited to, development policy and politics, education, energy, entrepreneurship (including illicit economies), food, labour, migration, human mobility, public health, natural resource access and control, agrarian and environmental change, climate change adaptation and mitigation, urban, rural and 鈥渞urban鈥 development, and sustainability. The seminar series is open to presentations of research designs, research in-progress and research outcomes, and welcomes academic and non-academic researchers at various career-stages as well as activists, practitioners and policy makers as discussants/participants.
Would you like to present and discuss your research in the Development Research Seminar series? Then reach out to Alberto Alonso-Fradejas and Kei Otsuki with the title and a 200 words abstract of your presentation, and a 100 words bio of yours.
