N-AERUS has called for submissions to its 17th conference, to be held in Sweden in November 2016.
N-AERUS is an international network of researchers and experts working on urban issues in developing countries. The 17th edition of its conference will address the theme: Governing, Planning and Managing the City in an Uncertain World: Comparative Perspectives on Everyday Practices.
The conference will take place from 17 to 19 November 2016 at the School of Public Administration, University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
This conference strives to gather scholars and practitioners interested in exploring the everyday practices of both those who are involved in the governance, planning and management of cities, and those who are building the city from below.
