Research Colloquium on Triangular Cooperation

Event Type
Research Colloquium

Location / Date
Online, 25.02.2025 until 15.07.2025

German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS), Instituto Mora (Mexico), University of the Sunshine Coast (USC) (Australia) and Technical University Darmstadt (Germany).

Triangular cooperation brings together partners across the North-South divide to address development-related concerns and strengthen partnerships. Triangular schemes often consist of multilateral bodies and traditional donors supporting (bilateral) South-South cooperation endeavours and have been said to centre on three sets of roles: beneficiaries, pivotals and facilitators. The monthly Research Colloquium on Triangular Cooperation brings together scholars from across the globe who investigate triangular cooperation through practice-oriented and/or theoretical approaches. Co-hosted by IDOS since February 2023, the Colloquium is a space for scholars of all ages and levels of expertise to present and discuss their study designs or results and benefit from others’ experiences and insights. Exchanges in the Colloquium are guided by the same principles that are said to apply to triangular cooperation initiatives: equal access and voice for all participants, openness to unexpected findings, and attempts to build upon others’ contributions. The Colloquium is held online and is co-organised with Instituto Mora (Mexico), the University of the Sunshine Coast (Australia) and Technical University Darmstadt (Germany).

Please get in touch with Sebastian Haug in case you would like to know more about the Colloquium or ongoing IDOS research on triangular cooperation.
