Field Schools Network
The APECS Field Schools Network aims to create a community of connected field schools concerned with the polar regions, the cryosphere, and climate change. All education levels are encouraged; most APECS members are undergraduate to postdoc, but schools designed for secondary students or early faculty are encouraged to participate as well. See below for a simple list of field school details, or check out the menu on the left to find out about APECS Field Schools, recurring field schools, and one-off field programs. All schools are tagged with 'Secondary,' 'Undergrad,' 'Postgrad,' and 'Postdoc' to show their intended audience - just search for those most applicable to you. Or, search 'grad' to get both Undergrad and Postgrad or 'post' to get both Postgrad and Postdoc.
Each school has commenting enabled to allow the APECS community to share their field school experiences - feel free to include links to photos and videos, too! More importantly, login to the site to see a list of past participants that you can contact!
If you have suggestions on how to stay better connected as a group and share experiences with other field school groups, or if you are an organizer of a field school and are interested in joining our network, please contact APECS Field Schools Coordinator Graham Simpkins.

DESCRIPTION
(research and knowledge network relating to Aboriginal peoples) will
host the 17th Inuit Studies Conference from 4-6 November 2010. The event
will be held at the UQAT First Peoples Pavilion on the Val-d'Or campus,
Quebec, Canada, under the theme "The Inuit and the Aboriginal World."
The conference proposes that the various dimensions of relations between
the Inuit (of the different northern states) and other Aboriginal
peoples of the world be explored through a variety of sub-themes: the
environment, climate change, economic development, the issues connected
to languages and cultures, and education (teacher training and academic
success). The participants will explore the current leadership and the
leadership of tomorrow. Organizers suggest developing proposals based on
one of the suggested themes, though various dimensions of Inuit
relationships with other Aboriginal peoples may also be addressed.
Proposals for papers must be sent to conference coordinators no later
than 22 January 2010. Proposals can be presented in French or in
English. A scientific committee will select the papers to be presented
at the conference. The selections will be made public in March 2010.
For additional details on proposal submission, please download the 'Call
for Papers' file available at: http://www.uqat.ca/isc-cei-
Submission Deadline: 22 January 2010.
