The International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences rotates globally with university partners and cultural institutions, gathering established and emerging voices to share research, test ideas, and build collaborations. Each edition develops a special focus that addresses urgent questions of social life across regions and communities.
The Network supports a journal collection that advances interdisciplinary inquiry across social and community studies, cultural studies, civic and political studies, and educational studies. The journals pair editorial stewardship with double-anonymous, rubric-guided peer review to sustain rigor and constructive feedback, and they provide pathways from conference presentation to peer-reviewed publication.
The Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Book Imprint publishes monographs and edited volumes that synthesize cross-field methods and findings, translating research into frameworks for educators, community leaders, and decision-makers, and extending arguments beyond article length.
The Network extends through CGScholar, a digital ecosystem supporting member engagement. Members share profiles, papers, and projects year-round, connecting conference presentations with journal and book publications in one integrated research environment.
The Network’s leadership provides overall direction and stewardship—shaping priorities, supporting programs, and sustaining an inclusive, scholar-led community. The current chair is Marcin Galent (Jagiellonian University, Kraków), with Cristina Castillo Rodríguez (Universidad de Málaga) serving as Spanish-language Chair.
