What: Contemporary Ethnography Across the Disciplines Hui
When
: 17 - 19 November 2010
Where:
University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand

Kia ora koutou (Greetings to everyone)!

New Zealand’s first international ethnography hui will give participants the opportunity to meet with like-minded researchers and experience the rich cultural tradition that is Aoteaoroa, New Zealand. 
There is a stunning list of four cutting-edge keynote speakers—Norman K. Denzin, Linda Tuwihai Smith, Elspeth Probyn, and Neil Drew—who will challenge and invigorate delegates, and are looking forward to this exciting time together!

The hui has three key threads;
•    Emerging Methods: traditional, experimental, transgressive forms
•    Practice and Advocacy: doing ethnography on the ground
•    Social Justice and Transformation: theoretical ethnographic visions

The call for participation is now open and you are invited to submit your abstracts online at http://www.nzethnographyconference.com Presenters’ papers will be considered for a peer-reviewed compilation of four to five presentations per thread.
