December 4th - December 15th, 2023
WANTED: BRAVE THINKERS WILLING TO EXPLORE NEW IDEAS ABOUT ECONOMICS, POLICY, AND GOVERNANCE. EARLY CAREER CHANGE-MAKERS FROM CIVIL SOCIETY AND EARLY CAREER SCHOLARS ARE EQUALLY ENCOURAGED TO APPLY.
Who: The Complexity Global School (CGS) is a collaboration between the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) in India, the Santa Fe Institute (SFI) in the USA, and the University of the Witwatersrand (Wits) in South Africa.
Why: The world is changing. The political and economic paradigms that dominated global affairs in the 20th Century were largely based on linear thinking, and often originated from within disciplinary and cultural silos. The challenges now facing humanity require new ideas and a global perspective.
What: The 2023 Complexity Global School for Emerging Political Economies is an intense, 12-day program that provides exposure to the newest complex methods, models, and frameworks for thinking about economics and governance and the opportunity to collaborate on a group project. There will be 60 students in total: 30 students from across Asia, who will attend at the IITB location, and 30 students from across Africa, who will attend at the Wits location.
Cost: This program is completely free for all admitted students. All students will receive a fellowship covering the full costs of room, board, instruction, and materials. Participating students will also receive a stipend to cover the costs of incidentals while they attend the school. Students who are not based in either Mumbai, India or Johannesburg, South Africa will be awarded an additional separate travel stipend.
Deadline: August 20, 2023
