The 2024 Global Development Conference will take place in Fiji in 26-28 November 2024, organized in partnership with the University of the South Pacific and the Government of Fiji,
The Global Development Conference is the Global Development Network’s (GDN) flagship event held in a different region and on a different theme each year. It hosts high-level, inclusive, evidence-based debates on current development challenges and priorities, with most participants from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), which is its trademark. This event provides promising and established researchers with an opportunity to disseminate their work, share their ideas, and foment Global North-South interactions between academics and policymakers aiming to foster a global network. Moreover, it offers new, Southern perspectives on sustainable development issues mostly debated in high-income countries and reinforces cooperation and development effectiveness.
GDN invites you to contribute to shaping the conference agenda. This is a unique opportunity to suggest topics and activities that will be featured at the conference.
GDN are looking for ideas on a wide array of conference segments: plenary and parallel sessions, keynote speeches, and interactive workshops/training sessions. The proposed format combines research and policy discussions (concentrated in the mornings) and capacity-building activities (in the afternoons, with keynotes and networking events spread throughout the day.
The event will be hybrid: keep in mind some of the participants will be joining the discussions online. The workshop/training sessions can either target virtual or in-person participants (or both, if you know how to do that!).
All suggestions need to be directly related to the overall topic of the Conference, but they should also keep the professional development of all participants in view.
