Call for Abstracts for the MSCA CORAL-ITN Final Conference

During the two-day conference, researchers, invited speakers from CWS and policy makers will meet to discuss CWS in relation to global economic trends, regional development, communities and individuals from the perspective of various disciplines. 

We welcome papers that build on empirical and/ or novel theoretical approaches and we are particularly interested in critical contributions which bring together the development of CWS and broader societal shifts and scientific discussions (e.g., remote work, inclusive workplace, digitalisation, platformization of labour, environmental change, social impact, rurbanity, spatial inequalities etc.). 

Abstracts can focus in one or more of the following thematic areas:

• CWS impacts on local businesses/ freelancers
• CWS and their role in local business/ innovation ecosystems and other regional networks
• wider social and cultural impacts of CWS in rural areas
• CWS as intermediate learning spaces, spaces for NEETs and alternative modes of education 
• labour arrangements and collaborative production in rural CWS 
• well-being in CWS
• Inclusive workplace, women-centred or women-only CWS 
• social innovation processes in rural CWS
• CWS as tools for local/ regional development policies
• the diverse functions of CWS in rural areas
• CWS and remote-work communities
