South-South Dialogues Event

Following up from the innovative session held during the 2022 Conference ‘Earth system governance and the Global South: an open conversation’ and a network-wide survey, further efforts are being made to address research topics and concepts, didactical, methodological, and pedagogical approaches, as well as science-society interactions that are relevant in different contexts in the Global South.

On October 22nd, before the main conference’s official start, a South-South Dialogues day will be organized to build upon the research network between early career researchers (ECRs) and mid/senior scholars from and/or based in the so-called Global South in a more structured manner.

This event will also be an opportunity to tackle the Conference theme ‘Bridging Sciences and Societies for Sustainability Transformations’ in different Southern contexts.

The day will be divided into three sections: a reflective session, an outdoor activity, research topic discussion, ideation, and matchmaking toward an upcoming ESG Journal Special Issue.

Registration

Registration will be made available with the general conference registration.

If you have an accepted abstract, but cannot access funding to travel to the conference in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, please fill out this expression of interest outlining your situation. There is limited funding for researchers made available by conference co-hosts The German Institute of Development and Sustainability as well as the Earth System Governance Project.

Morning

The morning session of the event will center around networking between Early Career Researchers and Mid/Senior Researchers. Matias Alejandro Franchini and Dhanasree Jayaram will moderate this segment, which will include a presentation and debate with three senior scholars on the subject of “Transformations from/with the Global South”.

The discussion will revolve around topics such as ontological development, research agendas, and ways to encourage transformation. Participants will also discuss the recognition of research from the Global South in environmental governance and its influence on the global agenda.

Midday

The afternoon section will involve an outdoor activity. It will be the opportunity for participants to further connect in a less formal environment, outside of the meeting rooms, and discover the area surrounding the conference venue.

Afternoon

During the afternoon session, the aim is to provide continuity to the discussions from the previous sessions and delve deeper into the research topics that were discussed. The session will begin with a series of brief presentations that will take stock of the previous discussions.
Following the presentations, the participants will be grouped based on their research interests. They will work collaboratively to generate innovative ideas, and also discuss potential publishing opportunities.
