Furthering the success of the first International Conference on Contemporary Issues in Emerging Market Economies (2022), IIM Bodh Gaya is excited to bring its second edition in collaboration with the Peoples' Friendship University of Russia (RUDN). Emerging market economies are drivers of global growth, but face challenges such as financial volatility, structural inequalities, and climate risks. Achieving sustainable and stable growth amid these complexities requires rethinking policies, institutions, and economic strategies. This international conference, themed "Reimagining Emerging Market Economies: Growth with Stability," brings together scholars, policymakers, and industry experts to explore innovative solutions for balancing economic expansion with long-term stability. Through keynote sessions, panel discussions, and research presentations, the conference will address critical issues like macroeconomic policies, financial innovation, sustainability, and socio-economic development, fostering interdisciplinary dialogue on emerging market dynamics. Join us in this intellectual endeavor to shape the future of emerging economies, ensuring inclusive, resilient, and sustainable growth in an evolving global order.

Guidelines
All submissions will be collected through Google Forms. Follow the link below to upload your file. Submit Your Work Here: https://forms.gle/CBnDxtCFYwwLtMDs7
The submission form is straightforward and will guide you through the required steps, including selecting your track or sub-track.
File Naming Convention: Name your file as: Track No_Sub-track No_Last Name of Author.pdf. For example, if a submission is to be made for "Track 1: Sustainable Finance for Flourishing Future" under sub-track "3. Innovative Sustainable Financing Instruments", by an author whose last name is Kakani, then the file has to be named "1_3_Kakani.pdf"
All communication will be done with the corresponding author only. The e-mail address provided at the time of submission should also be used for Conference Registration. There will be no options to revise the paper after the submission deadline.
A single author may make up to three submissions across tracks. Also, a single paper cannot be submitted across multiple tracks, even if it may be relevant for different tracks. The author should select the best fit in such a scenario and submit it to the corresponding track. The submissions must be original. All submissions are subjected to double-blind peer review and are expected to meet standards of academic excellence. Identities of peer reviewers shall remain anonymous to the authors. Feedback on submissions shall be provided to the author(s) after the reviews are concluded.
If accepted, all the details provided by the corresponding author at the time of submission will appear exactly the same as they were submitted in the Conference Programme and Proceedings. Therefore, please ensure all the details (paper title, author names, etc.) are correctly mentioned. The corresponding author must ensure that all co-author(s) have given consent to submit the paper. Further, at least one author is required to register for the conference and present the accepted paper. Only the accepted papers that satisfy the criteria will be included in the conference’s proceedings/book of abstracts.
Please contact us for any further information or clarification at ciemc2@iimbg.ac.in
