Great to join the roundtable with fellow editors of g/local journals at KNU. I introduced @millennjournal.bsky.social and shared thoughts on open access, PhD editors’ positionality, and generative AI. Excited to chair a panel on IR knowledge production via autoethnographies from East Asia later.

📌 On 19 July, @seowoohyeok.bsky.social will be chairing a panel titled "Millennium - Intersectional Experiences in IR Knowledge Production: Autoethnographic Accounts from East Asia." Please join us to listen to this inspiring discussion!

📌 On 18 July, @seowoohyeok.bsky.social will be participating in the roundtable “Meet the Editors Session II: Problematizing Ecologies of Publication” where he will introduce Millennium Journal's work and discuss the challenges of publication with other journal editors. Please join!
