> It is my pleasure to invite interested researchers of the University
> of Vienna to join the 2001 annual conference of the European Network
> on Conflict, Gender and Violence, October 11-13.  In collaboration
> with the WAVE Network, the 2001 meeting of ENCGV will be held in
> Vienna.  The purpose of this meeting is to encourage networking and
> exchange between established and new scholars, with an emphasis on
> work currently done in southern and Eastern Europe, and to provide a
> springboard for joint publications and collaborative research
> projects.
>
> It has been our tradition to devote the first day or half-day of our
> meetings to showcasing research from the country that is hosting the
> conference.  This year this would be Thursday, October 11.  I am
> looking for contributions from scholars whose work addresses conflict,
> gender, and violence from various perspectives and disciplines
> including womens and gender studies, cultural studies, social and life
> sciences, medicine, law, economics.  Theoretical and empirical
> contributions are equally welcome, as are those that address policy
> and practice implications.  Individual or panel presentations may
> highlight specific research projects or give comprehensive overviews
> of Austrian work and its relevance in the European context.
>
> Participation will be limited to 25 to 30 participants; presentation
> of papers is by invitation only.  There are no parallel sessions, and
> hence only few slots for presentations.  Each session runs for about
> 75 minutes and is introduced by a speaker, or panel of speakers, who
> may report on specific research projects or give a more general
> overview of current research in their part of the world.  The
> remainder of each session is reserved for discussion.  Additional
> discussion and networking time is available throughout the meeting.
> Conference language is English. I am also exploring options to produce
> conference proceedings again for this years meeting.
>
> The European Network on Conflict, Gender, and Violence serves as a
> link between scholars whose work addresses intersections of gender,
> conflict, violence and culture.  Our international members come from a
> wide variety of disciplines and work on gender issues, violence
> against women, social conflict, and related topics.  Since 1996, we
> have held annual meetings that have distinguished themselves for their
> collegial and constructive atmosphere, and innovative
> interdisciplinary dialogue among participants from diverse academic,
> professional, and cultural backgrounds.
>
> I would much appreciate if you could pass on this invitation and
> distribute it through the appropriate channels at the University of
> Vienna.  Those interested in participating or presenting should
> contact me directly for more details.

> Sincerely yours,
