Our webinars include both talks from invited speakers and research seminars. Research seminars aim to showcase research – both from early-career and experienced researchers – with a special focus on those from low-income countries to an international audience of scholars and practitioners. You can find the recordings of our past events on our YouTube channel.

The format encourages researchers to connect and keep the conversation going beyond the webinar. A panel of invited members will provide feedback during the presentation and will also follow up with written comments via email.
