The final objective of our research is to foster dialogue and collaboration among scholars, policymakers, activists, and the general public on issues related to the Third World and Global South. We believe that our research can contribute to building bridges among different stakeholders and perspectives, facilitating constructive debates and mutual learning. We aim to engage with a diverse range of audiences, from academic conferences to community meetings, from social media to traditional media, in order to disseminate our findings widely and foster a participatory approach to knowledge production.
