Diversity, a concept widely employed in conversations addressing education,
is often not examined within contexts of economics, power, history, and
culture. This conference will provide a forum for scholarly
discussion of diversity grounded in relationships between peoples, and the
economic and cultural landscapes in which they interact. We welcome and
encourage the participation of students, faculty, educators, and community
members in these important conversations.

We invite proposals for presentations that engage the themes of diversity
and education within the contexts of globalization and diasporic movements
of peoples, economies, cultures, and ideologies. We are especially
interested in work that engages the topic of diversity while connecting the
local with the global.

Proposals should address the theme of the conference from any disciplinary,
cross-disciplinary, or trans-disciplinary perspective. Diversity is
conceptualized broadly and includes languages, people, ideas, theoretical
frameworks, ideologies,etc.

Papers and projects that address unique and promising ways of imagining
diversity both in society and in education will be especially welcomed. We
invite scholarly work from a variety of traditional academic disciplines and
approaches. Proposals from graduate students and professionals/practitioners
are encouraged. Proposals for individual papers, panels, symposiums,
film/documentary screenings, and other
creative endeavors that address the conference theme are solicited.
