Calls
Globelics community, offering a shared space to disseminate opportunities for academic exchange, research collaboration, training, and participation. It includes calls for papers, research grants, PhD fellowships, doctoral academies, conferences, workshops, webinars, seminars, special issues, and other activities relevant to scholars, students, policymakers, and practitioners working on innovation, learning, competence building, science, technology, and development.
The aim of this section is to help members of the Globelics community stay informed about new opportunities promoted by Globelics, its regional networks, and affiliated sister communities. By making these calls more visible and accessible, the network seeks to strengthen participation across regions, support early-career researchers, foster South–South and North–South collaboration, and encourage broader engagement with the international agenda on innovation and development.
Open calls are an important part of the life of the network. They create entry points for new participants, connect researchers with ongoing debates, and support the circulation of knowledge, ideas, and opportunities across the global community. Through this section, Globelics contributes to building a more connected, inclusive, and active network.
