SUMMARY:Early Career Workshop on Post-colonial African Transportation and Mobility Research
DESCRIPTION:Post-colonial African transport and mobility is characterised by significant road infrastructure  development and technological innovation\, on one hand\, and historical chronic dysfunction on  the other. Africa has experienced complex challenges in urban planning\, infrastructure\, and  service provision which are apparent in public passenger transportation and mobility  experiences within and between cities. Across southern Africa\, urban public transportation is  generally characterised by unreliability\, uncertain waiting and traveling times\, overcrowded  vehicles and pick-up points\, unique transport operators\, and traffic congestion. The region has  also seen significant growth in informal public transportation from the boda-bodas and matatus  of West and East Africa and the mushika-shika and pirate taxis of Southern Africa which now  co-exist with increasing smart mobility and ride sharing technologies.   \nThe relationship between the urban transport sector\, commuters\, the broader economy\, law  enforcement\, and policymakers has created complex networks which are yet to be fully  studied. Therefore\, the recent growth in the study of African urban transportation prompts the  need to foster scholarly connections in the growing field. To fill this gap\, we invite researchers  in the Humanities and Social Sciences (history\, geography\, urban and development studies\,  policy\, post-colonial\, mobility studies and literary-cultural studies) among other fields to a  workshop on Transport and Mobility in Southern Africa. The workshop will provide a dedicated  platform for early career researchers to present\, discuss and refine their work as well as  opportunities for networking\, collaborative and multidisciplinary interaction in pursuit of  sustainable and context-relevant innovative research and solutions to postcolonial  transportation in Southern Africa.  \n  \nIdeally\, the workshop targets masters students\, doctoral students and post-doctoral  researchers focusing on different aspects of post-colonial urban transportation and mobility in  Southern Africa. The target group will be given a platform for interaction with seasoned  scholars for mentorship opportunities and to strengthen professional connections.   \nWe invite abstracts focusing on\, but not limited to the following research areas:  \n\nThe political economy of public transportation \n The relationships between state\, private sector (including formal and informal  transportation)\, and commuters \n Social dynamics in commuting and urban mobility  \n Gender and urban mobility  \n Commuter resilience and resilience and resistance \n STS Approaches to understanding postcolonial urban mobility \n Expertise\, ingenuity and knowledge production surrounding postcolonial urban mobility \n Historiographical and theoretical approaches to understanding mobility \n Dilemmas of sustainability issues vs informal transportation in Africa \n Contemporary experiences of public transportation and the practices of reading\,  writing\, narration and literary imagination in Africa \n\nImportant information  \nThe workshop has limited funding for travel and accommodation. In your application\, kindly highlight if you need to be considered for travel and accommodation assistance. However\, priority will be given to graduate students from institutions that do not provide funding. \nSubmit your abstract to: ysiworkshop@ufs.ac.za  \nAbstract length – 200 words  \nAbstract submission deadline – 30 August 2025  \nAbstract outcome – 10 September 2025

SUMMARY:3rd Southeast Asia Economic Research and Development Conference
DESCRIPTION:Southeast Asia stands at the crossroads of dynamic economic progress and significant socio-economic challenges. As one of the most vibrant and diverse regions globally\, it has achieved remarkable strides in economic growth\, regional integration\, and poverty reduction. However\, this growth has been accompanied by rising inequality\, environmental degradation\, technological disruptions\, and increasing vulnerabilities to global uncertainties and climate change. This raises critical questions: How can Southeast Asia balance its rapid economic growth with inequality\, ecological change\, and digital transformation? Furthermore\, how does research on Southeast Asia help us to understand the socio-economic rules that govern the world? \nAddressing these polycrises requires innovative\, multidimensional solutions that transcend traditional economic paradigms. The 3rd Southeast Asia Economic Research and Development Conference serves as a platform for young scholars\, researchers\, policymakers\, and practitioners to convene\, exchange perspectives\, and propose actionable solutions tailored to the region’s unique context.  \nAdopting an interdisciplinary and pluralist approach\, the conference aims to foster dialogue that integrates economic theory\, empirical analysis\, and practical policy interventions. By leveraging insights from various disciplines and methodologies\, participants will contribute to a deeper understanding of the complex interactions shaping Southeast Asia’s socio-economic landscape. \nThe conference seeks to inspire bold and collaborative research that rethinks growth\, sustainability\, and equity within the region. The papers presented will not only enrich academic discourse but also provide a foundation for evidence-based policymaking to support inclusive and sustainable development in Southeast Asia. We welcome submissions that explore\, but are not limited to\, the following themes: \n\nEconomic growth\, inequality\, and inclusion\nDevelopment and sustenance of the social protection and social security system\nHealth and demographic transition\nUrban and regional economics \nSustainability\, ecology\, natural resource management and climate resilience\nFood security and agrarian transformation\nDigital transformation\, automation\,  and innovation\nRegional integration and trade\nGovernance\, institutions\, and economic policy\nLabour economics and gender\nHistory of economic thought\, economic history and path-dependency\nInterdisciplinary and pluralist approaches in economic analysis\n\nAccepted papers may be considered for publication in a journal special issue (Scopas) or as part of an edited book in an internationally established publication house. \nConference Format \nThe conference will feature plenary sessions followed by parallel sessions. All papers presented in the parallel sessions will undergo a refereeing process before being accepted for presentation. In addition\, case studies focusing on any of the conference’s sub-themes will be considered for inclusion in panel discussions\, facilitating interactive engagement. Esteemed scholars will be invited to participate in the panel discussions\, offering insightful perspectives on economic thought\, structural change\, and macroeconomics. \nParticipation\, Travel\, and Accommodation Expenses \nParticipation in the conference is free for authors of selected papers. We are pleased to offer a limited number of travel and accommodation support grants to PhD students and early career scholars within 5 years of their PhD. To be considered for such grants\, please indicate your interest and eligibility in your application. \nImportant Dates \n\nDeadline for abstract submission: July 15\, 2025.\nNotifications of acceptance will be sent out in the fourth week of July.\nDeadline for submission of full papers: September 30\, 2025.\nConference dates: October 30-31\, 2025.\n\nContact \nAll communication regarding the conference should be directed to saerdconf@gmail.com or check the updated information online at https://saerdconf.github.io/.
