FIT IN Initiative

Affiliate network

The affiliate network has been developed to complement and enhance the initiative's research.

The network is composed by non-TSE academic and policy affiliates, from various origins, in particular affiliates with direct experience in the Global South. Affiliates bring significant expertise in the finance, banking, telecom and digital sectors and are invited to:

  • participate to the initiative's internal workshops and public lectures,
  • submit new research projects directly related to the initiative's mission that complement the projects conducted by TSE researchers.
