HOLOCAUST AND GENOCIDE REVIEW (HGR) INFORMATION RESOURCES ISSUE 4 FALL 2010

New Initiatives in Genocide Studies and Prevention

World Bulletin Board Genocide Studies and Prevention

GPN Genocide Prevention Now is to serve as a centralized Internet-based clearing house of information about genocide studies and its prevention in the world. Our team is very interested in keeping informed of your activities and your center, institute, or organization's activities so that we can announce them on our Web site. We will appreciate your keeping us informed regularly about your activities so that they can appear on our Bulletin Board, Calendar of Conferences, or Calendar of Events.

GPN offers a World Bulletin Board for Genocide Studies and Prevention to advertise current and future activities of scholars, activists, centers, institutes and organizations involved in promoting an awareness of genocide and its prevention. The GPN World Bulletin Board for Genocide Study and Prevention is dynamic and continuously advertises events such as: lectures, workshops, new courses, fellowships, exhibitions, etc.

We hope to show through publicizing these events that there is a common thread running through these activities regardless of their location in the world. We are especially interested in including New Initiatives in Genocide Studies and Prevention, including requests for collaboration and assistance and new projects.

Announcements can include the following:

a. REQUESTS FOR COLLABORATION AND ASSISTANCE
b. NEW PROJECTS
c. CONFERENCES AND SEMINARS
d. CALLS FOR PAPERS
e. ANNOUNCEMENTS OF COMPLETED PROJECTS
f. ANNOUNCEMENTS OF COMPLETED CONFERENCES AND SEMINARS
g. ANNOUNCEMENTS OF COMPLETED PUBLICATIONS

To individual professionals in Holocaust and Genocide Studies, please note that this Call also includes professional news at more personal levels that you or your department or institute would enjoy sharing with colleagues.
  • Are you or a member of your organization/institute/center attending a major conference and have been honored with a keynote address?
  • Will you have a major publication completed and want to share it with fellow scholars?
  • Has your center built a new office or received additional space allocated by your university or institution?
  • Have you chaired a panel at a conference?
  • Have you been invited on a fact-finding mission to investigate alleged atrocities and human rights violations somewhere in the world?
If so, then GPN is a site on which to post these important nuggets of information that will be of interest to other readers.
