Workshop Proposals (Due
by March 2, 2009)
A
hallmark of each International Metropolis Conference is its workshop program.
Workshops are selected from an open call for proposals and are adjudicated
according to the strength of the proposal, best fit with conference themes, and
representation of a broad range of perspectives from various countries, sectors
and backgrounds. We strongly recommend workshop organizers review the
guidelines and answers to frequently asked questions related to the workshop
programme at international Metropolis conferences. This document is available
on the conference website (www.metropolis2009.org) and will be
an indispensable resource for workshop organizers.
Workshop Proposals
Workshop
proposals on topics related to migration and diversity are invited from
researchers, policy-makers, non-governmental organisations and other interested
delegates. Workshop organisers are reminded that workshops must include
representation from the research, policy and non-government sectors, as well as
participants from more than one country.
Please
note that the workshop sessions are intended as a forum for comparative,
cross-sectoral discussion; workshops that focus on a single, local project or
individual country case study will not be considered. Workshops with explicit
international comparisons and links to the main conference themes will be given
preference. Once completed (http://www.metropolis2009.org/workshop/index.html),
proposals may be sent to [log in to unmask]
