We have a wonderful opportunity to hear Baroness Valerie Amos, UN Under Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs/Emergency Relief Coordinator and the Head of the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), speak about humanitarian aid at a Conference being organized at Durham University from 1-3 August 2012. I wonder if you could be so kind as to circulate the attached brochure as we are still open to receive abstracts and registrations.
Durham has kept the price of the conference low by not charging a conference fee in order to make it possible for people to attend from both the UK and overseas. The £250 early bird registration fee (to 31 May) covers accommodation in University en-suite rooms and food from 31 July to 3rd August.
Full details and a call for papers till 20 April can be found in the attached flier and at: http://www.dur.ac.uk/conference.booking/details/?id=106
The conference will also provide a wonderful opportunity to network with people from different parts of the world. We hope that you will both circulate this information and attend yourself.
Many thanks. Look forward to seeing you soon.
Best wishes,
Pamela
