The annual GLU Conference is scheduled for September 25 to 27, 2024, at the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in New Delhi, India.

This occasion is an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of the GLU network internationally and deepen the discussion on topics central to the network with GLU academics and Alumni, as well as members of national and international trade unions.

As part of the Conference planning, GLU issued a call for papers titled “Globalisation and Transition to an Egalitarian World: Resistance and Alternatives”, and selected proposals that will be presented at the conference.

A major cluster for the conference will focus on platform work and responsible global supply chains, as well as some broader questions related to policy interventions in response to the poly-crises of the current “world disorder. The following thematic clusters will be featured as well: labour regimes and policy, challenges of authoritarianism, global value systems, global care chains, solidarity economy, climate justice, and more.

For more information on the event, stay tuned via our channels, or send a query to jnuglu2024@gmail.com.

We will make the Conference programme available as soon as it is finalised. 

GLU organizes yearly conferences on topics of common interest in the network. The conferences take place at each GLU campus on a rotating basis and are an opportunity for members of the network to present their research, discuss new ideas and strengthen the network. After a Conference in South Africa in 2024, we are looking forward to meeting again our friends, colleagues, and associates in India.
