#LivefromLucy: 'Young researchers in International Relations from developing countries: questions, prospects and value proposition' with Emina Osmandzikovic

Wed 1 September 2021

Lucy Cavendish College

In this talk, Emina will be discussing young IR researchers from the developing world, positioning them on the global research map and will showcase the value of voices from the countries that are often studied/discussed in global affairs. Young people add value to global debates and bridge the incredible gap between the developed world and the developing world. The expertise and the knowledge that the world and global institutions (including educational institutions) can harness from our cohort needs to be discussed.
