CALL FOR PAPERS: THE UNIVERSITY OF ADILIEADE
About the opportunity
Funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, The Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence in Trade & Environment (CoE T&E) is offering a grant, awarded on a competitive basis, for research papers exploring the linkages between trade and environment. Grantees will receive a payment of up to AUD 7,500. The winning papers will be officially announced through the Institute for International Trade’s (IIT) dissemination channels and posted to the COE’s website.
Themes
The main theme for this round is the rapidly evolving international context shaped by revised US trade policies under President Trump, intensifying competition for critical minerals, and the growing influence of the “green premium” on low-carbon and sustainably produced goods. This broad theme spans multiple disciplines—from international political economy, economics, and law, to business. Contributions from a variety of fields are welcome.
