Second Project Conference "The Impact of Globalisation on the Poor in Asia"

Researchers focussing on one or more parts of Asia (South Asia, South East Asia, China and East Asia) are encouraged to submit proposals for papers to be presented at this conference. The organisers are looking particularly for empirical and conceptual studies exploring the impact of globalisation on the poor in Asia through one or more of its various manifestations. Examples of the possible manifestations of and channels through which the poor might be affected by globalisation are outlined below under possible topics. The setting and context of these studies can be at the community (village) level, at the regional level, at the national level or even at supranational level within Asia. Proposals by researchers from developed and developing countries are welcome. The intent is to publish the conference papers in a volume and/or special issue of a journal under UNU/WIDER copyright.
