Conference on Applied Interculturality Research

 CALL FOR PAPERS: Conference on Applied Interculturality Research

The first Conference on Applied Interculturality Research (cAIR10) will be held at the University of Graz, Austria, from 7 to 10 April 2010.
cAIR combines the resources of research (universities, institutes) and practice (government, civil society, schools, media) to raise awareness about racism and xenophobia and to reduce its prevalence and impact.
cAIR brings together practice and research in all areas of interculturality, and helps practitioners to benefit from research, and researchers from practice. cAIR promotes high standards in both practice and research. Keynote addresses will be given by international leaders in interculturality research and practice.

All practitioners and all researchers in all areas of interculturality are invited to submit project summaries that highlight the mutual benefits of collaboration between research and practice. By practitioner we mean any person who is professionally involved in any practical (i.e.
non-research) project or activity in any area of interculturality, including for example project directors and leaders, supervisors, coordinators, administrators, organisers, planners, developers, activists, artists, musicians, actors, teachers, educators, social workers, publishers, advisors, consultants, officials, promoters and policy makers. By researcher we mean any person who is qualified in a relevant academic discipline and professionally involved in research in any area of interculturality.

16 September 2009

1.)    The deadline for submission of project summaries has been extended to the end of September 2009.
