[ecrea] CFP: SIETAR Branding and Multiculturalism

BRANDING AND MULTICULTURALISM: SIETAR AUSTRALASIA INAUGURAL CONFERENCE 
16- 18 OCTOBER 2015 CAIRNS, AUSTRALIA.

My culture. Your culture. Our culture.



'Super Diversity and Multiculturalism. Managing and understanding 
diversity and culture at home and abroad.'



We invite theoretical and practical contributions questioning all forms 
of multiculturalism from dance, art to indigenous cultural sovereighty 
amongst some of the topics we like to discuss. this is an 
inter-disciplinary conference.



Our inaugural conference is about multiculturalism locally and globally. 
We would like to encourage and promote a deeper dialogue about 
multitudes of cultures co-existing without one dominating any of them. 
This is the ideal of multiculturalism we are aiming to explore in our 
conference: How to share without being subsumed.



We encourage all our participants to explore these ideas, to demonstrate 
and to find new ways to unite cultures in their presentations, 
workshops, or film, or any other performing art medium. We would like to 
explore the notion of how we can all co-exist (or not) and share our 
different cultures, but without being subsumed into one another’s 
culture. So join us in sharing your culture with my culture for us to 
create our culture together.
