Social Inclusion, Migration, and Global Inequalities
Economic development is more often coupled and curbed by social exclusion and inequalities.
Within countries and regions, barriers from legal systems and labor market regulations or discriminatory and stigmatizing attitudes, beliefs, or perceptions prevent some groups from fully participating in political, economic, and social life.
Across countries and regions, the rising trend in global migration is frequently accompanied by the increasing vulnerability of migrants with respect to citizenship, language ability, relevant skill sets, social networks, and acceptance by the natives.
The conference aims to provide a forum for development and labor economists to identify the roots of social exclusion and discrimination and to discuss policies to sustain inclusive growth and reduce global inequalities.
The international SITES–GLO Conference 2024 invites the submission of papers, long abstracts for research papers, or complete sessions of three to four papers related to the topics of the conference and the general themes of development and labor economics.
