The Center for Environmental Communication Studies and the Department of Communication at the University of Cincinnati are pleased to announce the call for papers for the 6th Biennial Conference on Communication and Environment. The theme of the Conference is "Communication and Public Participation in Environmental Decision Making: Advances in Theory and Practice."
Date: July 27-31, 2001
Location: Cincinnati, OH (specific venue TBA)
The purpose of this conference is to bring together environmental communication scholars, environmental and community activists, and environmental decision makers who are concerned with informed and empowered public involvement in environmental matters. Our hope is that the conference will serve as an opportunity to establish a dialogue between communication and other scholars interested in environmental matters, and further the discussion of the relationship between academic research and public policy, and between scholarly activity and public activism.
In keeping with the tradition of the previous five Conferences on Communication and the Environment, papers and panel proposals that are not related to the 2001 Conference theme are also welcome.
The deadline for receipt of submissions is March 1, 2001.
Please visit the conference website for complete details.
