td-conference 2010 - CALL for proposals, deadline 3 May 2010 (pdf)

Implementation in Inter- and Transdisciplinary Research, Practice and Teaching

The major aims of the td-conference 2010 are:

to present and critically discuss theoretical, conceptual and methodological models and ‚tool kits’ for implementation strategies;
to learn about practical experiences with implementation in different scientific and social contexts as well as in various professional fields;
to highlight achievements and challenges for effective implementation not only in research but also in education;
to collectively forge theories, concepts and methods for integrating theory and practice and thus
to forge synergies between researchers and practitioners of various professions, NGOs and grass-root movements.

We kindly ask you to submit proposals for either paper, poster or workshop sessions.
