SUMMARY:Research Seminar -          Anna Kim
DESCRIPTION:William Dawson Scholar and Associate Professor in Management for Sustainability at the Desautels Faculty of Management\, McGill University \n\n\n\nAbstract:  Toward Respectful Theorizing: Methodological Principles and Strategies to Generate Diverse Theories from Fieldwork in the Global South \n\n\n\nOrganization and management research increasingly aims to build theories based on fieldwork in the Global South. Nevertheless\, existing methodological approaches risk producing accounts that do not reflect local realities\, as well as causing epistemic injustice and potential harm to the communities studied. Specifically\, researchers risk three forms of disrespect: uncritically generalizing Global North theories and experiences across the world (universalization)\, positioning certain perspectives and phenomena as of higher value than others (cultural superiority)\, and portraying Global South experiences as unusual and fascinating while divorcing them from broader social and historical contexts (exoticism).  \n\n\n\nTo counter these tendencies\, we propose three principles for more respectful theorizing: recognizing plurality across contexts while identifying the specificities embedded within universalized frameworks (particularizing); challenging cultural superiority by valuing local experiences and epistemologies (symmetrizing); and resisting exoticism by foregrounding heterogeneity within a setting and situating it in sociohistorical conditions (contextualizing). Building on these principles\, we propose concrete methodological strategies to guide the theory-building process\, from experiencing (beyond data collection) and sensemaking (beyond data analysis) to sharing (beyond writing)\, to mitigate the risk of epistemic injustice and foster diverse and pluralistic theories that are more grounded in local realities.

SUMMARY:Spring 26' Prototyping Fund Showcase
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the end of our 6th Prototyping Fund cycle with the showcase of 17 incredible students’ projects! \n\n\n\nThe Prototyping Fund is a collaborative program offered by the DESIS Lab @NovaSBE with the support of Nova SBE Haddad Entrepreneurship Institute . \n\n\n\nThis program awards teams of students (with at least one member from Nova University) up to €600 or €1500 to be used to build hardware\, software prototypes or prototype engagement activities\, and connects them with the resources\, tools\, and mentors they need to bring their ideas to life. \n\n\n\nThis Spring we have 14 new teams\, bringing fresh perspectives and ideas to the table\, as well as 3 teams continuing their journey from the previous cycle. And this cycle we had many multischool projects! \n\n\n\nGet your spot here
