The "International Research Center for Intercultural Studies” (C.I.R.S.I.) promotes an International symposium on "Identities, gender and in-equalities" in order to extend and deepen the debate on gender and migration launched by the first issue of the Quarterly Journal "Temperanter” which will be presented on that occasion ("Temperanter”, n. 1, January-March 2010: "Women and Equal Opportunities: a Challenge for Everyone”).


Segregation and exclusion of non-dominant ethnic, linguistic, sexual, religious, etc. groups, have been consolidated through time by the instauration of a discriminatory system based on the imposition of false and subordinating representations. A wider interest on these topics has determined an important progress at the theoretical and philosophical level, although rarely followed by effective policies and practices. The following topics can be presented through the most appropriate scientific approach (sociological, literary, psychological, jurid ... read more

This 2nd International Symposium on Roadside Memorials takes a broad theme of 'marking death in open places'. It is hoped that this will aid in taking a fresh look at this phenomena and expand perspectives on these memorials.
Toward a Typology of Roadside Memorials - interest has also been expressed by a number of scholars to work toward a typology of memorials. This would provide a sound basis for future scholarship by identifying contemporary and traditional forms of these memorials and enable innovations and change to be more easily identified.
Symposium program - The first day of the symposium will focus on the broad theme of 'marking death in open places'. The second will continue this theme and also include a selection of papers on the typology of these memorials internationally.
Presentation - short fifteen-twenty minute presentations on aspects of roadside memorials are invited. Abstracts should be about 150 words in length. Abstracts should be submitted by 20th ... read more

The Departments of History at the University of South Carolina and Western Carolina University solicit paper proposals that address the topic of student activism at southern colleges and universities for a conference to be held March 19-21, 2010 at the University of South Carolina, Columbia.
We seek a broad conversation about protest, organization, and political engagement across the political spectrum, including civil rights work, antiwar protest, the "New Right,” and other forms of political organization. Our aim is to examine the broad intersections among political movements within the unique cultural and political environment that conditioned student activism in the region and throughout this critical period.

Positive Spaces is a campaign run by Open Space India in a number of Indian cities in 2009, with the aim to develop physical as well as symbolical spaces that are safe, diverse, inclusive and attentive to the ways in which hierarchies of class, caste, religion, sexuality, gender and ability work within the youth. The campaign has been carried out in campuses and public spaces through workshops, awareness sessions, theatre and other live performances and film screenings, and supported by organisations like Seagull Foundation for the Arts. From http://kinaaramagazine.org/index.php/positive-spaces/

Kinaara magazine in collaboration with Open Space India seeks contributions to Positive Spaces, an anthology of fiction, articles, essays, photographs and artwork that emphasise and celebrate the aspects of unity and coexistence within the youth of South Asia and the diaspora.

LaTrobe Refugee Research Centre DVDs
The resulting DVDs include: See Through Me: Discrimination through the eyes of ten young Somali-Australians; Crazy: The everyday experiences of Sudanese-Australian young women; Home: An exploratory journey with young Somali-Australians; and, Finding light: Reflections of recently arrived Afghan boys living in Australia.
