INTERNATIONAL
CONSORTIUM FOR SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT,
(European Branch)
And
ALEXANDRU IOAN
CUZA UNIVERSITY
(co-organiser)
invites you to the 11th Biennial European ICSD
Conference on
European societies in transition - Social development and social
work
The
conference will take place on 25-27 June 2008 at the
Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iaşi, (www.uaic.ro),
Romania.
Papers on the following subtopics are welcome:
-
Strategies, models and values in social and community
work
-
Social inclusion of vulnerable groups, particularly
children and minorities
-
Civil societies and the state: The role of religious
communities.
The topics for the
conference are mainly inspired by the present status of social
work and social welfare in the Romanian society, but will
hopefully attract and inspire teachers, researchers and
practitioners in the social area in many societies in transition
and also worldwide.
Romania became a
member of the European Union on 1 January 2007. The country is
in the process of rapid and profound transformation from a
typical post-Soviet society to a modern society.
Iaşi
is the most important political, economic and cultural centre of
Moldavia (North-Easter part of Romania) and one of the oldest
cities in the country. Presuming that for most of the
participants it will be the first visit to
Iaşi, a post-conference
tour will be organised on 28-29 June 2008 with visits
to some of the many important historical sites in the region,
including monasteries with famous outside frescoes.
Please reserve the
end of June 2008 for this
professional
meeting and a unique cultural experience.
The programme,
Registration form, Call for papers, information on accommodation
and other practical information
will be available at the Conference homepage
