THE MANAGEMENT OF INTERNATIONAL BOUNDARIES
12-13 September 2001
University of Durham Business School
With both people and goods becoming ever more mobile, the challenges facing
boundary managers are becoming increasingly complex. On the one hand, the
need to secure frontiers against unwanted immigration and cross-border crime
has never been greater; on the other, many governments around the world are
also striving to maximise the opportunity for desirable transboundary
interactions. The question of how best to strike a balance between the
apparently conflicting requirements of security and access forms the basis
for this innovative two-day training workshop. Expert tutors in both the
policy and practice of international boundary management will share their
experience and provide practical advice on techniques and technologies for
effective boundary control. Other boundary-related management issues -
including crisis management and transboundary environmental management -
will also be addressed.
Fee: £895 + VAT where applicable. This is fully inclusive of accommodation
and all meals in Durham.
