On 8th and 9th November, the seminar rooms of the Ruhr-University’s convention centre were packed with about 70 international PhD students in the interdisciplinary field of development research.
The conference was funded by the RUB Research School and provided a platform for young scholars to present their research projects and engage in vital discussions. Overall, it was a successful event.
