14TH INTER-AMERICAN SYMPOSIUM ON ETHNOGRAPHY AND EDUCATION -March 15 deadline

This is a friendly reminder that the deadline for the 14TH INTER-AMERICAN SYMPOSIUM ON ETHNOGRAPHY AND EDUCATION is March 15.

The symposium this time will take place in both Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico, and El Paso, Texas. It was extremely important to have a venue on both sides of the border, in order to make sure that scholars who may not be able to come to El Paso may participate. We will have streaming of key presentations on both locations in order to facilitate participation for most of the event, even if participants cannot or decide not to cross to either side.

The co-organizers believe that more than ever it is important to create spaces to better understand the theme of this 14th symposium "Crossing Borders".

We are thrilled to have excellent keynote speakers whose work is highly influential across the Americas:
WALTER D. MIGNOLO
Duke University
MARJORIE FAULSTICH ORELLANA
University of California, Los Angeles
ANA MARIA RABELO GOMES
Federal University of Minas Gerais, Brazil

Scholars will come to discuss their work from many diverse countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Canada, Spain, and Mexico.  From Mexico, we have participants from Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Navojoa, Sonora, Oaxaca, and Mexico City.


We are also featuring panels with teacher researches from the border region and Mexico!



Proposals (individual papers and panels) are due on March 15, 2017.
