Overview: Occurring at a pivotal time for the environment of our planet, the International Polar Year (IPY) 2012 Conference draws international attention to the Polar Regions, global change, and related environmental, social and economic issues. From Knowledge to Action will bring together over 2,000 Arctic and Antarctic researchers, policy- and decision-makers, and a broad range of interested parties from academia, industry, non-government, education and circumpolar communities including indigenous peoples. The IPY 2012 Conference will contribute to the translation of new polar scientific findings into an evidence-based agenda for action that will influence global decisions, policies and outcomes over the coming years.

McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario
Call for Papers
From
the outset of the Seven Years’ War in 1756 to the eve of the Great War,
the spaces and places, as well as the peoples and predicaments of life
in northern North America changed dramatically. In recent years,
students of history, both in Canada and across the world, have been
repeatedly urged to consider local and national histories within in a
global, international, or comparative frame. The L. R. Wilson Institute
for Canadian History at McMaster University, in association with the
Department of Humanities at Mount Royal University, invite historians of
18th and 19th century British North America/Canada to submit paper
proposals for a two day workshop entitled, “British North America’s
Global Age,” to be held the 24 and 25 May 2012 at McMaster University in
Hamilton, Ontario.
