May 3-6, 2012 - Salzburg, Austria
As the human and financial costs of responding to natural disasters and social unrest around the world mount ever higher, the 44th annual Salzburg Congress on Urban Planning and Development (SCUPAD) will look at ways in which cities can both mitigate and alleviate the repercussions that such events have on urban areas.

June 8-11, 2012 - Klingenthal, France
Throughout the world the burden of chronic disease has been growing, and much of this relates to lifestyle choices. For all the successes of well-resourced and effective campaigns around key issues - such as tobacco, nutrition and exercise, drugs and alcohol, and sexually transmitted infections - the related diseases continue to ruin lives and place an increasingly unsustainable burden on health care systems. This seminar aims to bring together decision takers and practitioners concerned with health and with education to explore how best they may cooperate.

June 9-10, 2012 - Cairo, Egypt
Following the courageous actions begun in 2011, Egypt's political and economic challenges demand that its next generation of leaders quickly take up the reigns dropped by the old regime, capitalize on their own positive qualities, learn from their mistakes, and benefit from the experiences of their peers at home and abroad. This 2-day session will enable attendees to collaborate on the issues they feel are most important for Egypt's future.

September 27-October 1, 2012 - Salzburg, Austria
Following on a similar 2002 session concentrating on the US experience following 9/11, this first American studies symposium of 2012 will take a more comparative approach and explore such topics as grounds for migration (push and pull factors), dichotomies between "natives" and "newcomers" and their significance in the US and various parts of Europe, identities and distinctions between "they" and "we" as expressed in politics and in the art and literature of marginality, patterns of adaptation and integration -- and isolation, and the varied meanings of "tolerance."

October 2012 - Athens, Greece
With change constant and globalization pervasive, how can the next generation be made comfortable and competitive in the foreign and uncertain conditions of the modern global economy? This meeting will concentrate on higher education (in its many forms) and the partnerships, both international and with the private sector, that can help academe prepare students for a global knowledge economy.

October 2012 - Berlin, Germany
Ten years after China's accession to the WTO, there are few who would question the importance of its role in the global economy. But this quick rise has given only limited time for foreigners to understand where they stand in relation to this new power. Whether you're a seasoned China expert or interested in making first connections, join us for this revealing class to both gain and share experiences about working with and in the Middle Kingdom.

November 15-19, 2012 - Salzburg, Austria
The second American studies symposium of the year will focus on developments in American film and television since the turn of the millennium and the way they reflect and communicate messages and images about varied aspects of life and culture. As we edge further into the 21st century there have been notable changes in the modern media and particularly in the film and television industries. The symposium will concern itself both with these changes and with the ways in which film and television have reflected and engaged with America and abroad.
