Young Scholars Forum

This forum being organized ahead of the main workshop is deisgned to create opportunities for early career critical urban scholars to bring their concerns to the table and for senior scholars to share their views and experience and priorities. The day-long Young Scholars Forum is designed so as to facilitate dialogue and debate around the main theme of the conference - Urban Revolutions - and to move towards a shared agenda for research and practice. The Forum brings together 12 PhD students from a number of universities in the US and an equal number of students and postdoctoral fellows from the South East Asian region. The organizing committee of the Urban Revolutions Conference along with other workshop participants will join in the conversations.
