The Sino-Global Discourse

(Berlin, Held Parallel to the “Berlin Asia-Pacific Weeks”, September 08th – 11th, 2011)
http://www.culturaldiplomacy.org/cdea/i ... rences_roc

The “Sino-Global Discourse" is an international conference held by the Institute for Cultural Diplomacy in cooperation with other leading organizations. The objective of the conference is to examine the growing prominence of China on the world stage, the opportunities for global development that this presents, and how China can maintain its robust economic growth and social evolution to benefit the global environment. The 2011 conference will bring together renowned speakers from across the world for varied discourse, proceeding from the premise that China's future has the potential to result in a seismic shift in global politics.

The issues raised during the conference will be discussed from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives and academic backgrounds, examining the issues that are currently defining the internal and external development of China. Key historical relationships will be analyzed, new strategic partnerships considered, and experts will offer their views on what path China should follow on the international stage, highlighting areas of global agreement and areas where greater cooperation is needed. With the continued expansion of the Confucius institutes, China has embraced the fundamentals of cultural exchange, and is in fact setting a global example for the power of cultural dissemination. In practical terms, the application of cultural diplomacy and soft power as tools in international relations will be considered in detail.

Conference Speakers
Speakers during the conference will include leading figures and experts from international politics, academia, diplomacy, the private sector, and civil society from across the world. These speakers will include a number of individuals from the ICD Advisory Board.

UMinho recebe exposição dos 50 anos da Guerra do Ultramar

 

O Edifício dos Congregados da Universidade do Minho, no centro de Braga, tem patente a partir desta semana, e até 19 de Agosto, a exposição comemorativa “50º Aniversário do Início da Guerra do Ex-Ultramar”. A mostra é promovida pelo Regimento de Cavalaria nº6, em colaboração com a Direcção de Cultura e História Militar, a Liga dos Amigos do Museu Militar do Porto, a UMinho e a Associação Portuguesa de Veteranos de Guerra.

 

No hall do edifício podem ser vistos diversos documentos alusivos ao período da guerra colonial, como fotos, mapas, livros, equipamentos, uniformes, armamento, o documentário “Guerra” de Joaquim Furtado e ainda conteúdos multimédia, nomeadamente nos teatros de operações da Índia, Angola, Moçambique e Guiné. Os movimentos independentistas, os líderes africanos, a lista de militares falecidos e a propaganda salazarista são também destacados.

 

Esta iniciativa pretende divulgar ao público em geral o contributo das Forças Armadas na História recente de Portugal e recordar aqueles que, com o seu sangue, suor e lágrimas, serviram a pátria com elevado sentido do dever e, por vezes, com o sacrifício da vida, explica a organização.

 

O Regimento de Cavalaria nº6, também designado Dragões d’Entre Douro e Minho, foi criado em Chaves em 1709 e está aquartelado em Braga desde 1979. Está inserido na Brigada de Intervenção do Comando das Forças Terrestres do Exército português. O RC6 possui um milhar de elementos, é vocacionado para o reconhecimento blindado e tem participado em diversas operações especiais e forças de intervenção um pouco por todo o mundo.

Each Academy Session will therefore seek to explore the history and development of cultural diplomacy, with a particular focus on the state-sponsored cultural diplomacy of the cold war, and then to evaluate the development of the concept and its application by different actors across the world today.

During their time in Berlin participants will also have the opportunity to take part in cultural and social activities and to visit institutions such as the German Foreign Office, the German Parliament, the Berlin City Hall, cultural institutions and Berlin-based embassies.

www.lihrc.org

 

Dear Sir/ Madam,

The London International Human Rights Congress 2011

"Immigration & Integration in an Age of Austerity: Challenges and Opportunities"

(London, November 22nd - 25th, 2011)

www.lihrc.org

 
The London International Human Rights Congress is an international Conference held annually by the ICD and other leading organizations in a different global capital city. The aim of the conference this year is to reflect on the operation and application of Human Rights with particular focus on Immigration and Integration. The program will consist of lectures, seminars, debates and panel discussions that will feature leading figures from international politics & diplomacy, academia, civil society, and the private sector.
 
Since the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948, the dignity and respect afforded to the protection of Human Rights across the Globe has faced an unprecedented amount of challenges. In our Globalised and Multicultural world rights relating to Immigration and Integration are those which are both most important in terms of International Relations, and those most at risk. It is during times like these that the International Human Rights framework is tested in a way like never before. Raising new questions such as how far should National Financial or Economic failings be allowed to influence the Universality of access to fundamental rights? The London International Human Rights Congress will discuss the challenges and opportunities which arise in the quest to protect Human Rights in the 21st Century.
 
Conference Participants »

The conference is open to applications from diplomatic and political representatives, civil society practitioners, young professionals, students and scholars, private sector figures, journalists, and other interested stakeholders in international relations from across the world.
