In 2015, the IABS Executive Committee allocated funds for member-driven projects to address three key strategic priorities. These were: 1) growing the membership and increasing member engagement; 2) improving conference quality; and 3) supporting the Business & Society journal.
In 2024, IABS is re-launching the Strategic Initiatives program, with a more specific focus of supporting research development in regions and countries beyond Europe and North America where the majority of IABS’ members reside and work. Whilst we welcome all proposals that are committed to further our strategic objectives, we are particularly interested in proposals that seek to contribute to the development of research in locations not currently well represented in IABS’ membership. Current IABS members from any region or country can submit a proposal. Examples of proposals supporting research development include manuscript development workshops, research incubators, and team research projects drawing in scholars from these areas.
We thus invite proposals for innovative projects that will advance this recent, more specific strategic focus on research development in IABS-under-represented regions. Members are invited to submit proposals for projects – with details about:
- How their project will contribute to research development in IABS-under-represented
regions - Key deliverables, a full budget, and a proven track record on delivering projects and
outcomes
