upcoming Archives - Project Untangled

Submissions are open until 29 September. Please submit full papers or extended abstracts to Ilse Tobback at: ilse.tobback@kuleuven.be.

We invite contributions addressing the implications of technological transformation, globalisation, and demographic change on:

Heterogeneous impacts of megatrends on labor market outcomes
Work-related migration and skills
Education and future skill needs, productivity growth
(Regional / Rural-urban / EU) convergence/divergence, EU economic governance
Developments in trade and global value chains
Technology and human capital
(Wage / regional) inequality
Welfare states and social policy

Covering the combined impact of two or more driving forces – technological transformation, globalisation, and demographic change – is considered an added value.

Detailed information is in the Call for Papers available here. Any queries can be emailed to Ilse Tobback at: ilse.tobback@kuleuven.be

This is an open format driven by participants’ contributions. It can be a platform for you to promote an ongoing project or research, tap into attendants’ collective intelligence for a specific question or simply to enjoy a dynamic thematic conversation. It is an informal online gathering among colleagues (or those to be), to enable exchange between experts, researchers and stakeholders from the fields of digitalisation, globalisation, migration, work, employment, skills etc. and promote exchange and communication among them.

Active contributions consist of one slide (to be submitted to untangled@zsi.at beforehand) and a 5-minute presentation (“elevator pitch”). Listening, receiving information and asking questions is just as welcome. Further contact and networking is up to participants. Slides and announcements will be shared among participants and/or publicly.

Contributions can be:

any information on an ongoing initiative, project or a result,
a future-oriented announcement (call for papers, event invitation, search for collaborators)
a question asked of participants.
