Deadline- October 31, 2012
Countries/Region-All Countries
Seeking papers for the conference on the topic development-induced displacement and resettlement in which all the developed and the developing nations are invited.
In view of the conference theme, “bridging research and practice, filling the knowledge gaps”, papers facilitating cross-communications between different stakeholders, disciplines and perspectives are very much welcome. As a forum for critical reflections on the current practice and policies, the conference encourages presenters to engage in discussions on the least studied aspects and unanswered questions of DIDR.
This theme will look into strengths and weaknesses of laws and policies, impracticalities and in sufficiencies, what works and what does not. Papers might explore the gaps between policy and practice, address the possibilities of having over-arching legal and policy frameworks or discuss the idea of ’success’ in the context of resettlement. Participants from international financial institutions as well as policymakers from across the world are welcome to explain their efforts and challenges in relation to their own policies.
Displacement and resettlement are taking place in various contexts including developed and developing countries, diverse regions and geographies and amongst urban, rural, indigenous, and mobile populations. This theme will examine the unknowns of DIDR in different contexts and compare and contrast its challenges and repercussions. Case specific studies as well as papers with a broader focus at regional levels are very much welcome.
