SfAA 2010 (Mérida, Mexico)

Globalization is changing the context in which we work, the people we work with and the way in which applied researchers and practitioners address real world problems. The 70th Annual Meeting of the Society for Applied Anthropology in Mérida, México will bring attention to the growing challenges facing applied practitioners in the 21st century, especially the effects of globalization on the peoples we work with resulting in higher levels of exclusion of vulnerable populations. How do these factors impact applied practice and social science research? Participants are encouraged to submit presentations, roundtables and workshops around this theme.

See sfaa.net for more information.

CSCW 2010 (Savannah, GA, USA)

The 2010 ACM Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work, CSCW 2010, will be the twenty-second CSCW conference, and will be held in beautiful Savannah, Georgia, USA, from February 6–10. 2010 is the start of some new traditions for CSCW: most importantly, the conference is becoming a yearly event, and is moving from November to February.

CSCW is a premier venue for presenting research in the design and use of technologies that affect groups, organizations, and communities. Although work is an important area of focus for the conference, technology is increasingly supporting a wide range of recreational and social activities, and we embrace the growth of the discipline in the areas of Collaboration, Sociality, Computation, and the Web.

CSCW 2010 will bring together top researchers and practitioners who are interested in both the technical and social aspects of collaboration.

See cscw2010.org for more information.
