Just out of the starting gates of the 21st century, the world has experienced unthinkingable natural global changes. From disasters such as Hurricane Katrina to the Binghamton Flood of 2006 here in Central New York, the world is changing, but the question is how are we addressing it? With a growing academic, social, and political concern about our planet we are interested in hearing what you are doing to address these global concerns in your classes, community events, writings, or lectures. In this interdisciplinary conference we want to ask questions from a diversity of fields and experiences including, but not limited to education, art, ethics, justice, culture, science, history, technology, policy, media, economics, and spirituality in relation to issues of environmental awareness and sustainability. We invite proposals from professors, community members, nonprofits, government leaders, activists, and graduate and undergraduate students, across the disciplines, in areas relating to but not restricted to environmental justice and education. Paper presentations should be twenty minutes in length.
The deadline for proposals and abstracts is October 1, 2007.
Please send proposals for a panel, workshop, or roundtable discussion. Limit proposals to no more than 500 words. Also, send abstracts of articles (no more than 500 words) for consideration.The organizing committee is receptive to many different and innovative formats for the conference, including, but not limited to roundtables, panels, community dialogues, and workshops. You may propose individual or group ‘panel’ presentations, but please clearly specify the structure of your proposal.
The organizing committee will review all proposals with preference given to papers focusing on the program theme.
Accepted presenters will be notified by email by October 20, 2007.
