Globelics International Conference

Call for Papers

This year’s conference focuses on innovation for sustainable and inclusive development to build resilience in the context of growing inequality, climate change and geopolitical disruptions, particularly as they affect developing nations. Against the backdrop of South Africa's G20 presidency, the Globelics conference serves as a crucial intellectual forum that aligns with and reinforces the G20 objectives. Both platforms emphasise the transformative power of innovation in addressing global challenges by promoting collaborative innovation policies that prioritise inclusivity and sustainability. The conference will draw from the G20 discussion and contribute insights and

recommendations that can shape the leadership role of Africa and the Global South on the world stage, ensuring that the voices of developing nations are amplified in the G20’s decisions and outcomes.
