2015 Midwest ECO Call for Proposals and Save the Date

[Announcement from SCRA-L]

39th Annual Midwest ECO Conference 2015
Forwarding Inquiry and Action for Social Change
Horizons, Tensions and Tools
October 23 - October 24

Hosted at: University of Wisconsin-Madison

The 2015 Society for Community Research and Action’s Midwest ECO Conference will be hosted by the School of Human Ecology’s Civil Society and Community Research Program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, in partnership with the Center for Community and Nonprofit Studies. This year’s conference theme is Forwarding Inquiry and Action for Social Change.  As we reflect on 50 years of the existence of the field of community psychology, the 2015 Midwest ECO theme seeks to explore horizons that advance more just communities, acknowledge tensions that exist in our work, and share tools that facilitate research and practice.

We hope to inspire generativity and collaboration among researchers, students, community members, and practitioners through the cultivation of creative and interactive spaces. Therefore, the submission form will ask those submitting proposals to consider multiple presentation formats and engage in organizer-identified opportunities for integration across sessions. Proposals on work at all stages of development are welcome. As part of your abstract, please briefly describe how your work might resonate with the concepts of horizons, tensions, and tools outlined above.

Please see the attached 39th Annual Midwest ECO Conference 2015 Save the Date!
