Registration, Fees & Deadlines

REGISTRATION FEE

Currently, the Registration Fee for the Colloquium and Field Study are estimated at $750.00.  This fee includes conference materials, Field Study hotel nights, most dinners and lunches (and coffee breaks), and all Field Study admission and transportation.  We have submitted a range of funding applications and are hopeful that we will be able to reduce the registration costs before Colloquium Registration opens in March 5, 2019.

2019 SCHOLARSHIPS FOR GLOBAL SOUTH Ph.D. CANDIDATES 

The CSRS Chairs offer two scholarships to Ph.D. students of the Global South (UN developing countries) to cover the 2019 Colloquium Registration fees.  For eligible Ph.D. candidates, when submitting your extended abstract (before 15 January 2018), please express your wish to be considered for one of these scholarships. The Organizing and Scientific Committees will determine recipients based on eligibility and the quality of the submitted abstract.

COLLOQUIUM PUBLICATIONS

Following the Colloquium, and subject to peer review and selection, an opportunity will be given to include papers in special issues of journals listed in SCOPUS/SSCI.  These papers will be peer-reviewed according to the respective journals’ guidelines after the conference.  Details relating to submission will be circulated later.

The book of accepted abstracts will be published online in an open-source format.

BRIEF TIMETABLE – DETAILED TIMETABLE WILL BE FORTHCOMING

The Colloquium begins on the evening of Sunday, July 21, 2019 with registration and the opening reception for participants, including the opportunity for a local walking tour.  Monday 22 July will feature a full day of paper sessions. On Tuesday, participants will engage a half-day of Field Study in southern Minnesota and half-day of paper sessions in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.  Wednesday begins the formal Field Study featuring selected field sites related to the primary themes of the Colloquium. Visits to local agricultural operations, large and small-scale, rural communities experiencing significant demographic change and second-home ownership, conservation areas, a Native American reservation and the Duluth Harbor on Lake Superior are amongst the field sites scheduled for Wednesday through Friday.  Friday evening will conclude the Colloquium with a meal and discussion at a local CSA.
