CALL FOR PAPERS!

14TH Annual American Indian Studies Association Conference February 7 - 8, 2013 Tempe, AZ
CONFERENCE THEME: Strengthening and Sustaining Native Nations: Innovative Practices in Indian Country The past, present, and future experiences of American Indian nations, communities and organizations are grounded in the concepts of sovereignty, self-determination, self-sufficiency and the rights of Indigenous peoples. Indigenous sustainability continues to be a challenge as American Indian and Native American study programs partner with others to use disparate worldviews and intellectualism to strengthen Native nations by seeking solutions to 21st century issues. The theme of the conference is to examine the innovative approaches that tribal governments, communities, and various organizations and institutions have undertaken to best meet the needs of growing Indigenous populations. What are the issues and what types of programs and approaches are being implemented to protect and sustain tribal land and culture and the well being of native people? The organizers of the AISA Conference welcome proposals for paper presentations, panel presentations, round table discussions, and workshops on the following topics: Innovations in health, education, welfare, art, literature, technology, social and economic justice, economic development, criminal justice, implementing the Indian Law and Order Act, environmental justice, cultural sustainability, family issues including women, children, men and elders and domestic violence prevention. Consideration will be given to other topics that relate to American Indian issues. Please send paper and panel submissions to: Elizabeth P. Martos, Coordinator American Indian Studies P.O.
