Deadline for abstracts: February 2nd, 2025.
We are pleased to announce the opening of submissions for the second Doctoral Workshop on Comparative Social and Public Policy, to be held on 8-9 May 2025.
This workshop, organized by doctoral students from UAB, UB and UPF aims at bringing together young scholars of the social policy academic community in an international setting in Barcelona, Spain. It is a great opportunity to present your ongoing research and engage in insightful discussions with junior and senior scholars.
This year, the event will be hosted by PhD students and professors from different research groups in the Department of Political and Social Sciences at UPF. We welcome submissions across a wide range of topics related to social protection and labour market policies, including areas of health, migration, and family, among others.
This is an in-person two-day event at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona. Each session features presentations, comments from invited senior discussants, and collective discussions. Selected participants are required to submit a draft paper, prepare a 20-min presentation, and review papers from their fellow participants. There is no funding provided for travel and accommodation, but coffee break and lunch will be provided for participants.
