The interconnected world of the twenty first century is uniquely situated to explore integrative and cooperative policies and institutional structures to meet the variety of challenges that confront the international community. These issues span a wide range of economic, political, social and cultural dimensions. This conference proposes to engage in a discourse that analyses the magnitude of these challenges and suggest creative integrative responses. A cross professional and cross disciplinary approach will greatly enhance our understanding of global challenges and lead to effective solutions. Paper, panel, and roundtable proposals to engage in an interdisciplinary dialogue are invited from scholars, policy makers, and interested professionals.
