Work with the Global Development Lab

How can you engage with the Dev-Lab?

  • Contact us for support if you are considering a development-focused research grant application 
  • Develop ideas about innovative partnerships or programmes involving LMIC and LDC partners that will benefit from cross-faculty engagement
  • Consider sharing existing networks in LDCs or LMICs to increase engagement across the university
  • Express interest in supervising students on development-focused international fellowships or project placements
  • Express interest in piloting remote PhD supervision with partners in LMICs and LDCs
  • Express interest in joining the Academic Advisory Board
  • Share ideas for speakers and organisation to engage in Lab events and lectures 

Please contact Clare Turner (clare.turner@imperial.ac.uk) or Francesca Skillicorn (f.skillicorn@imperial.ac.uk) to discuss any of these opportunities. 

 

Global Development Hub Postdoc network

Are you currently working in or aspiring to work in the Least Developed Countries or Lower Middle Income Countries to further the SDGs?

The Global Development Hub’s Postdoctoral Network seeks to bring together postdocs from across the College. The network provides the opportunity to interact with peers from across college through quarterly relaxed events.

Through these you will get a chance to:

  • Expand your research interests
  • Identify overlapping interests which may lead to collaboration or knowledge-exchange
  • Establish strong and lasting professional ties – and perhaps new friendships too!
  • Promote the sharing of industry contacts between fellows

We also hope that the network will increase interactions across and within departments by fostering an exchange of ideas, experiences and internal contacts (e.g. PIs).

Sign up here to join the network or contact Dr Laure Sioné for more information.
