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]
