ISME Commission on Policy: Culture, Education and Media Pre Conference Seminar 2020 - Call for Papers |
|
CALL FOR PAPERS NOW OPEN
PURPOSE
The purpose of the 34th ISME World Conference 2020 is to foster global understanding and cooperation among the world's music educators, by strengthening ties and sharing ideas about different aspects and issues within music education, in ways that promote music education for people of all ages throughout the world. Given the current global reality, the conference theme Visions of Equity and Diversity is a timely reminder of music’s power to unite our humanity while respecting our differences. The conference theme encourages opportunities for dialogue and international collaborations that are thought-provoking and innovative, and that place equity and diversity at the heart of music education scholarship and practices world-wide.
The purpose of the Policy Commission Seminar is to bring together scholars from around to world to examine and explore issues concerning culture, education, and media policy development and implementation. We do this by providing participants the opportunity to share their research and scholarly work in presentations and discussions. In the current global political climate, opportunities for scholars and experts to engage with each other are vital for the continued growth and understanding of the intersections of policy and music education.
We welcome proposals on all policy topics, including the theme of Visions of Equity and Diversity.
