*Call for Papers*
*International Conference on "New Technologies and the Future of Work in
the Global South"*
*17-19 July 2023*
*New Delhi, India*

New technologies are profoundly reshaping the world of work. Innovations in
digital technology such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning
and robotics, digital platforms and cloud infrastructure have led to new
ways of organizing work processes. The impact of digital technologies on
the labour market and the organization of work varies across sectors,
countries and regions. There is a need to better understand the
heterogeneity of the adoption and diffusion of new technologies, and its
impact on work, especially in the global South, where the evidence is very
limited. It is in this context that the Institute for Human Development
(IHD), International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the Southern Centre for
Inequality Studies, Wits University, South Africa are organising a
three-day International Conference on "New Technologies and the Future of
Work in the Global South” during 17-19 July 2023 at N ew Delhi. The
conference will address some important issues and concerns in the wake of
technological change and emerging forms of work which have important
implications for the future of work and for workers.
Research papers related to the conference theme, underpinned by the core
question of how to address the issue through the right mix of strategies
and policies, are invited from scholars and researchers, from both Global
South and North. An extended abstract in about 1000 words containing
research objectives,data and methodology and key findings should be
submitted online on the Conference portal by 20 April 2023. Those whose
abstracts are accepted will be invited to submit their full paper by 25
June 2023. For a detailed set of sub-themes and specific questions to be
addressed under the theme, please visit:

The papers should not have been published earlier in any form. Authors of
the accepted papers are expected to meet the travel and other expenses from
their own sources. However, based on peer review, the organisers may be
able to provide a financial subsidy towards travel and other expenses, in
the case of selected participants from the Global South. Decisions
regarding the subsidy will be communicated by mid-May,2023. Selected and
revised papers presented in the conference will be brought out as one/two
special issues of the Indian Journal of Labour Economics (a quarterly
journal of Indian Society of Labour Economics published by Springer). Kindly
share this information with other interested researchers and colleagues.
