Doctoral Consortium

24th June 2020 (12.30pm-5pm followed by dinner)

​

The CSSI 2020 Doctoral/Early Career Consortium (D/ECC) is chaired by Dr Oana Branzei, Associate Professor and Director, Sustainability Certificate Program Donald F. Hunter Professor of International Business and Dr Annmarie Ryan, Kemmy Business School, University of Limerick.  The consortium is aimed at offering a supportive and developmental atmosphere for PhD, and early career scholars in the field of cross sector partnering to develop their research. In line with this year's symposium theme we will be interested in hearing from scholars advancing the notion of place based theorising on cross sector partnering, and also those that aim to advance the SDG agenda and the role of partnerships in that regard.

 

 

The CSSI 2020 D/ECC will be held Wednesday, June 24th from 12:30 to 5:30pm followed by a social event for PhD/ECs and faculty members (final agenda is subject to change).
