Subsistence Marketplace Journal and Knowledge/Practice Portal Online Workshop Series:
Adding Value Before Submission And After Publication |
With the launch of our new journal, we will be organizing a series of workshops that begin to implement our vision of supporting the entire value chain from before submission of content to after publication. This will include discussions and exercises to articulate how to move toward submissions that would be considered for the review process. It will also cover connections to practice and practitioners that will be useful both before submission and after publication. Indeed, we believe that such forums can provide the impetus for new collaborations and projects and will emphasize interactions across disciplines, sectors, and regions. We anticipate a variety of topics.
The frequency of these workshops will be once every 3 months to garner sufficient interest and generate publicity. The duration will be for 2 hours. We have selected the first Sunday in March, June, September, and December at GMT -5 (US Central Daylight Time for much of the year).

Second Virtual Subsistence Marketplaces Conference: Envisioning Subsistence Marketplaces In A Post-Pandemic World (FREE)
May 28-30, 2021
Sponsored by the Center for International Business Education (CIBE) at Loyola Marymount University
The spread of COVID-19 has brought out in the starkest terms how individuals in subsistence marketplaces are unequal in day-to-day life, yet essential to the well-being of others. Our interactive, immersive virtual forum will be themed around envisioning a Post-Covid world that addresses stark inequalities locally and globally in subsistence marketplaces. How do we work toward such a future through research, education, and practice? We envision sessions and workshops organized around topics such as understanding the nature of inequalities in different geographies and domains of subsistence, connecting local and global issues, envisioning sustainable pathways post-Covid in subsistence marketplaces, and developing education about subsistence marketplaces that make the virtual real.
The conference purposefully includes a blend of virtual interviews with subsistence consumers and entrepreneurs in different countries, plenary sessions, participatory workshops, special topical sessions, and presentations of papers submitted in response to this call. The emphasis is on sharing nascent ideas and knowledge (or new and provocative questions) among researchers, practitioners, and students. Academics, students, social entrepreneurs, policy makers, and business and nonprofit practitioners are encouraged to submit papers and attend. We welcome abstracts of individual presentations or of sessions or workshops.
