Emerging Global South Scholar Workshop
Global South Workshop Application - ISA 2019Applications are open!The Global
South Workshop is a training, mentoring and networking program designed for
emerging scholars (junior faculty) of the global South within the International
Relations profession, and will take place the day prior to the ISA Annual
Convention.
PurposeExchange and Collaboration with(in) the Global South is a training,
mentoring and networking program designed for emerging scholars (junior
faculty) of the Global South within the International Studies profession.
Established Global South scholars (and Northern scholars of the Global South)
will act as guides throughout a one-day workshop and hopefully beyond. The
workshop will address issues such as publishing, proposal writing, networking
and conducting research in challenging settings. The purpose of the workshop is
to provide more comprehensive information about how to navigate academia,
locally, regionally and globally, to create robust networks of emerging Global
South scholars and to address current inequalities and asymmetries within the
International Studies profession with respect to the Global South.
FormatThe workshop will rotate between the annual ISA convention site and
distinct conferences within the Global South sponsored by different
organizations (universities, think tanks, ISA and other professional
associations). In the case of the Association convention, the workshop will
take place on the day prior to its start. Although the specific agenda and
roster of senior scholars will differ from year to year, issues addressed will
include networking, publishing and research. Special attention will be given to
the conditions that characterize academic work and IR communities in many
Global South sites, including lack of resources, institutional barriers,
unhelpful government policies, constraints on academic freedom, and limited
support for social science and humanities programs (as compared to professional
and trade fields). Throughout the course of the full-day workshop, it is
expected that all attendees participate in question and answer sessions,
break-out groups, and mentoring and networking activities.
The workshop will include training seminars by established scholars in distinct
areas of professional activity and sessions to provide feedback/advice on
emerging scholar research. Additionally, mentoring efforts will focus on how
emerging scholars can build local and regional institutions for knowledge
production and foster connections with northern institutions and across the
Global South.
ParticipationExchange and Collaboration with(in) the Global South is a special
workshop sponsored by the ISA’s Committee on the Status of the Global South, in
collaboration with the Global South Caucus (GSCIS). It is geared towards early
career global South scholars, preferably based in the Global South. Interested
participants apply for the workshop by July 20, and the Committee on the Status
of the Global South and the GSCIS evaluate these applications and identify 20
scholars to take part in the workshop. A limited amount of funding is available
for workshop participants through the ISA Travel Grant program. All applicants
should expect to receive notification as to whether they’ve been accepted to
the program by August 15.
Best regards,
