Call for Interest: Financial Geography in Central Asia
The Global Network on Financial Geography (FinGeo) is exploring ways to deepen its engagement in Central Asia, building on growing interest in the region across economic geography, finance, and political economy.
We invite expressions of interest from scholars who are:
- based in Central Asia, and/or
- working on Central Asia-related topics from elsewhere.
At this stage, we are particularly interested in connecting with colleagues who would like to:
- Participate in an online FinGeo workshop on Central Asia in Mai 2026, and/or
- Collaborate with the FinGeo Committee and Regional Ambassadors as a local host university in shaping a future FinGeo School and/or Regional Seminar in Central Asia, tentatively planned for March/April 2027 in Uzbekistan or Kazakhstan.
This call is exploratory and aims to identify interested scholars, exchange ideas, and build a community ahead of any formal event planning.
