Kia ora koutou!
We are excited to host the first Contemporary Ethnography Across the Disciplines (CEAD) conference and hui at the University of Waikato in Hamilton, New Zealand. This, the first in what will be a quadrennial international conference, will take place on 17 - 19 November 2010. We welcome scholars, professionals, and students from all disciplinary backgrounds to share in the rich diversity that the conference and hui promises.
We have determined three major content strands or themes for the CEAD conference and hui:
- Emerging Methods
- Practice and Advocacy
- Social Justice and Transformation
Further information about the themes explains what they might mean to discussions concerning a contemporary ethnography that holds promise for positive societal and global change, a contemporary ethnography that is vital and forward-thinking, a contemporary ethnography that matters!
Additionally, on 16 November 2010, we will hold pre-conference workshops. Follow the link for
