SUMMARY:YSI–NACLICS Innovation Futures Initiative: Modeling Tomorrow for Sustainable Development
DESCRIPTION:Project : Modeling Tomorrow: Innovation for Sustainable Development \nThis Academy is a multidisciplinary initiative designed for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers interested in innovation\, development\, and policy. It provides a unique opportunity to explore innovation ecosystems as complex\, dynamic\, and non-linear systems shaped by interactions among governments\, businesses\, research institutions\, and regulatory bodies. Understanding these systems requires a complexity-based approach that accounts for interdependencies\, evolving contexts\, and unpredictability. \nThemes Addressed: \n\nComplexity science and its application to studying innovation systems\nEvaluation of national and regional innovation policies\nEconomic complexity and innovation ecosystems\nInnovation for sustainable development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)\nPolicy design\, evidence-based evaluation\, and socio-economic impact\n\nWho is Involved: \n\nLeading scholars and practitioners from academia\, industry\, and policymaking\nYoung scholars and early-career researchers from the NACLICS and GLOBELICS networks\nThematic working groups\, including Economic Complexity\, Innovation Ecosystems\, and regional research networks\n\nWhat to Expect:\nParticipants will engage in a mix of lectures\, mentoring\, panels\, and practical activities: \n\nLectures & Mentoring: Gain theoretical knowledge and hands-on guidance from experts.\nPanel Sessions: Learn from diverse perspectives on innovation policy\, research methods\, and practical implementation.\nWorking Paper Feedback: Receive individualized input on one research paper or working draft.\nProfessional Development: Build research\, collaboration\, and career skills.\nField Trips & Hackathon: Participate in applied exercises exploring innovation for sustainable development.\nNetworking Opportunities: Meet peers\, potential collaborators\, and senior researchers for long-term professional connections.\n\nWhy Take Part: \n\nStrengthen your understanding of innovation systems using advanced complexity approaches.\nReceive mentoring from top experts in the field.\nGain exposure to international networks and collaborative research opportunities.\nContribute to shaping innovation policy and research practices for socio-economic development.\nPresent your research to peers and senior scholars\, and engage in practical discussions on collaboration.\n\nThis Academy is an exceptional platform to connect with a global community\, advance your research\, and develop both theoretical and practical skills in innovation\, development\, and policy. \n

SUMMARY:Re-imagining Legacies\, Transitions and Meanders in Southern African Economic Histories
DESCRIPTION:For several decades\, southern Africa and the wider world have grappled with multifaceted social\, political and economic legacies and transitions. These have manifested themselves in upheavals\, increased armed confrontation\, economic tensions\, and a rise in localized social disorders. These transitions and meanders have configured and reconfigured structures and institutions of power\, and are\, undoubtedly\, a product of historical processes\, both anthropogenic and natural. Key moments in history have attracted varied historiographical responses from historians. The YSI- SAHS Pre-conference and main conference alike seeks to foster discussion about how historical transitions (international and local) have shaped the region’s histories and historiographies. This\, we hope\, will help shed light on how historical processes have been understood\, experienced\, and interpreted. The conference invites contributions from young scholars from various disciplines within humanities and social sciences. We welcome papers that employ a range of methodologies\, including quantitative approaches to econometric modelling\, statistical analyses\, and an array of data-driven analyses; as well as qualitative research such as case studies\, interviews\, narrative analyses and ethnographic studies. The conference seeks to examine and re-examine the pertinent role of institutions and policies broadly conceived in shaping economic outcomes and social inequalities\, as read with the broader thematic focus of this conference. Thus\, we invite  individual papers on the given broad theme and a wide range of sub-themes related\, but not limited to:\n• Legal histories: legacies\, meanders\, and changes in laws\n• Statecraft and transitions: political and military change\n• Protest cultures\, everyday resistance and subversive politics \n• The Anthropocene and environmental histories of southern Africa\n• Economic transitions\, crisis economies\, and financial histories\n• The political economy of mining and mining communities in southern Africa\n• Nationalism and historical narratives: the weaponisation of history\n• Digital Age (Artificial Intelligence\, misinformation\, deepfakes\, and historical revisionism)\n• Decolonizing history (Challenging Eurocentrism\, indigenous perspectives)\n• Gendered experiences of transitions\, legacies\, and meandering histories \nPaper submissions should include an abstract (max 200 words) and a biographical statement (a brief paragraph of 100 words). Please submit online at https://forms.gle/cfSXdBbU17c74XSY8  by 31 March 2026. And email queries can be directed to preconference organizers Peter Uledi and Kelvin Gomera at peteruledy@gmail.com or kelvinlexcygomera@gmail.com. We intend to fund a limited number of young scholars within the region of South Africa. \n
