International Conference: Innovative research in a changing and
challenging world

16-18 May 2012 - Phuket Thailand 

Conference website:     www.auamii.com/conference.html

Traditionally research has been rigidly confined to a single academic
discipline. This is important for maintaining its research vigour.
However it can also create a discourse of research hegemony which can
stiffen creativity and innovation. This conference promotes diversity
and unity in research on an interdiciplinary basis. Phuket is chosen as
our meeting place for sharing innovative research in a changing and
challenging world.
