Global South Studies: A Symposium and Workshop

The Symposium and Workshop will bring together an interdisciplinary and multinational group of scholars in March 2019 to generate dialogue on the impact of contemporary capitalist globalization on diverse spaces and peoples and the transformative futures envisioned from these spaces, and advance the field of Global South Studies and solidify UV's reputation as its leading intellectual center. This event builds on the digital project Global South Studies: A Collective Publication with The Global South, found at globalsouthstudies.as.virginia.edu. The project will host a workshop, led by directors of Global South centers, dedicated to the discussion of program building and curriculum.
