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. 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.

To submit a paper for consideration for presentation or for discussion in a supervision meeting, please use this submission form.
