I am delighted to be able to confirm that Bruce Girard will be joining
us for The Radio Conference a Transnational Forum, 9-12 July 2013. 
Bruce's work will be familiar to many of you, as he was an early
activist for AMARC and most recently wrote the report which instigated
World Radio Day 13 February. A brief bio is below.


 Can I also remind you that this Friday 9th November is the deadline for
the call for papers for the conference. We have had many high quality
abstracts submitted and the team of reviews have enjoyed reading them.
If it is still on your list to do this week, please don't delay.


 We are letting the first round of authors know as rapidly as we can so
you can apply for funds and book travel.  We should have got back to you
within the next week.


 I am looking forwards to meeting you all next July if not before.


 Best wishes,


 Janey Gordon
