World Youth Forum “Right to Dialogue”: Call For Papers

The World Youth Forum 2016 focuses on the topic “Work/labor”, considered from different points of view: in the economic perspective, as a function of the productive processes; in the cultural perspective, as a function of a specific way to conceive such processes; finally as human labor: the worker beyond the work.

All interested are invited to present their own proposals within the suggested fields of discussion, or to present different topics / panels (within the given general theme) bringing their own local experiences, views and inputs from different scientific fields in a transdisciplinary perspective (economics, social sciences, history, psychology, arts, cultural studies, political science).

The following fields of discussion are suggested:

• Values;
• Work between culture of wealth and culture of well-being, histories;
• “Global” work;
• New poverties: loss of work

Main criteria:

• Young adults aged 18 to 35;
• From all over the world;
• Fluent in English or Italian.
