June 28-July 1: Montpellier,

and Sustainable Development in Agriculture and Food".
At a time of increasing global threats including climate change, the
scarcity or degradation of resources, and population growth, the
current economic crisis has triggered unpredictable short-term
consequences but could also offer new opportunities in the long
term. Agriculture and the food sector face an uncertain future,
especially in some regions of the globe, and technical and political
choices will play a determining role in ensuring the welfare of
rural populations and avoiding social exclusion and environmental
degradation.
We invite researchers from all disciplines, stakeholders and policy
makers, from Northern and Southern countries, to reflect upon future
choices, to identify new concrete proposals for research agendas and
for political action, and to discuss how innovations systems can
better achieve sustainability.

International Congress on Child Abuse and Neglect".
Sponsored by the International Society for Prevention of Child Abuse

Our theme, "One
World, One Family, Many Cultures," recognizes that in spite of our
differences we live in one world that is a global family made up of
many cultures that can work together towards a common goal of
strengthening families, and preventing abuse and neglect of our
children. The world faces many challenges with unfortunate conflicts
among nations and tragic effects of armed conflict on our families,
children and communities. The increase in violence among family
members and its painful effects on our children have also challenged
us to find ways to strengthen families and prevent family violence.
Knowing the value of diversity in our efforts to prevent harm to our
children, we invite the nations of the world to share their cultural
experiences, values, and traditions and to empower the youth of our
nations to work together to create a better world for our most
precious resource, our children. Email
