CFPs: CFIA & EADI Workshop on When Can Frugal Innovations Become Inclusive Innovations?, at Hague, Netherlands; 26-27 Nov

CFIA & EADI Workshop on When Can Frugal Innovations Become Inclusive Innovations?
Location: International Institute of Social Studies, the Hague, the Netherlands
26-27 November 2015

On 26 and 27 November the Centre for Frugal Innovation in Africa, in cooperation with the EADI working group 'Frugal Innovation and Development', organizes a workshop on frugal innovations and inclusiveness.
Next to debating empirical case studies and giving presentations, during the workshop we would like to work towards synthesizing these cases to see how we can advance our understanding of frugal innovation and development. We seek contributions from different geographical regions and different disciplinary fields (from technical sciences to social sciences and humanities).
