📢 I am very happy to announce our 2025 Junior Scholars Forum on “Reimagining Civil Society, Philanthropy, and Social Innovation in a World in Crisis” hosted at ESSEC Business School (Paris Cergy campus) on 19-20 June, 2025. 🙏 This flagship event is co-organized by the ESSEC Philanthropy Chair, the Chaire Innovation Sociale - ESSEC, the Stanford Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society (Stanford PACS) and our dear colleagues from HEC Liège, emlyon business school and IÉSEG School of Management. 🎓 Are you a PhD student, postdoctoral fellow, or junior faculty (assistant professor, lecturer) working and developing research in the areas of #civil #society, #philanthropy, and #social #innovation? We have an amazing opportunity for you 😀! A 2-day forum to get generous feedback on your research and build lasting relationships with your peers and renowned senior scholars. 📂 Interested candidates should send their research material and an academic CV in attachment to an email motivating their participation: 🐣 For the early-stage track (1st to 3rd year PhD students): please send an extended abstract (1,000-3,000 words) outlining your ongoing research and what you would most like feedback on. 🐥 For the advanced track (final year PhD, postdoctoral students, assistant professors): please send a full-length paper not currently published (we accept manuscripts under review or undergoing revisions) on which you want to receive detailed feedback. 🗓️ Applications should be sent before Friday, February 28th, 2025 to jsf@essec.edu. We will accept as many applications as possible, up to 20 participants. 💰 Full funding will be provided to all selected participants for accommodation (2 nights in Paris), meals, and participation fees.

Powell (Stanford University)
It feels like this event would be a really interesting candidate for a co-hosted Hackathon for solutions related to some of the issues listed in the call for applications. Sort of a "bring your research and apply it to build something" type of initiative.
Awesome opportunity!!
