The symposium will take place at Malmö University and will include lunch and dinner on the 18th. For the symposium, we plan a varied program with invited keynote speakers combined with sessions, where you are invited to present and discuss your work in organisation studies.

Our research environment in Malmö is interdisciplinary and composed of researchers from across different faculties at the university, and we have a new PhD education in Organisation Studies based at the Department of Urban Studies. We focus on organisations from the spirit of critical thinking, global engagement, sustainability, and inclusion to the generation and development of new forms of organizing both in public, non-governmental and private spheres.
