What is the purpose of the EADI General Conference?
The EADI General Conference is held every three years and assembles more than 500 participants involved or interested in development issues. In 2011, the conference will be held in co-operation with the Development Studies Association of the UK and Ireland (DSA). The Conference is part of EADI’s activities conducted in order to broaden and deepen the scientific network of development research among its members. Further on, it aims at influencing the public perception and policy implementation of development related subjects within Europe and the world. The forthcoming EADI/DSA Conference “Rethinking Development in an Age of Scarcity and Uncertainty: New Values, Voices and Alliances for Increased Resilience” is held in York, 19 22 September 2011. Registration is open to anyone interested in the subject. Researchers are invited to submit papers for one of the thematic EADI-Working Group Sessions or DSA panels.
