Population, Time, Territories (CIST2020)
The latest in the series of Collège international des sciences territoriales (FR2007 CIST) conferences, this 5th international conference spotlights the concept of population as a central issue in the debates within territorial sciences. The concept of population, which is central to demography and biology and more marginal for other disciplines, involves the grouping together of individual entities. Depending on the particular approach used, the preferred criterion for aggregation will be the social, territorial, biological, etc., with timescales and observation scales varying accordingly. Linking together population, time and territory in a transdisciplinary and international perspective is the main goal of this conference; beyond the fact that it represents a theoretical and methodological breakthrough, the diversity of the proposed thematic sessions is a clear sign that this trio is at the heart of contemporary issues.

5th International "Language and Territory" Colloquium
This multidisciplinary colloquium will discuss the different ways that languages and territories are linked, and will show the political, social and economic stakes that arise from the relationships between them. Above all, these terms refer to men and women with their social practices and representations, at the core of the logic of territoriality. New territories give rise to new language practices, which, in turn, create new spaces, discourse and meaning. The "boundaries" we draw between languages and territories are permeable in time and space, depending on factors such as population displacement, language policies, linguistic and social representations, education, mass media and socio-cultural values.

Minority languages spoken or signed and inclusive spaces
The objective of this international conference is to question the way social “inclusive” spaces (schools, universities, cultural centers, public services…) take into consideration minor languages (or not). It aims at fostering original and innovative initiatives in their psychological, social, glottopolitical, anthropological, linguistic, pedagogical, didactical and digital dimensions, and discussing those topics.

#MariellePresente - Transnational Resistances
The Gender and Diversity Journal, a feminist and queer review from the northeastern region of Brazil, invites everyone to submit articles, essays, interviews, field journals, reports and other texts for the special issue entitled "#MariellePresente: Transnational Resistances". The texts must describe and analyze the transnational responses following the assassination of the Brazilian Marielle Franco. She was a black woman from the favela, political activist, feminist and lesbian. She was murdered at the corner of a street in Rio de Janeiro in March 2018. Given the political nature of her assassination, many actions denouncing the crime were organized around the world.

Population, time, territories (CIST2020)
Le Ve colloque du Collège international des sciences territoriales (CIST2020) - qui se tiendra du 19 au 21 novembre 2020 sur le campus Condorcet, Paris-Aubervilliers - se propose d’aborder les enjeux théoriques, méthodologiques et pratiques soulevés par la prise en compte simultanée de la population, du temps et des territoires. Ces enjeux portent notamment sur deux défis : (1) l’agrégation des actions individuelles ou des attributs des individus au sein d’une population sur un territoire, et (2) l’intégration de la dimension temporelle dans la dynamique des populations (humaines et/ou animales) et de leurs inscriptions territoriales, à différentes échelles.

Mediation: A transversal approach with multiple purposes
Xth Congress World mediation forum
The WMF’s mission is the development and exchange of knowledge, information and competencies in all mediation areas, notably through the regular organization of international congresses for more than fifteen years. The Xth Conference of the World Mediation Forum wants to devote itself to trying to understand how mediation can be organized and developed when it has so many objectives that are seemingly difficult to reconcile. Thus, the 2019 conference will try to bring, through four highly interrelated roundtables and about forty presentations, a significant contribution to this question: 'Mediation: A transversal approach with multiple purposes?'

We invite researchers to submit a paper for the next issue of the GenObs e-journal, which will focus on the possible links between resistance and testimony when they occur in contexts where Human rights are violated (genocide, crimes against humanity, mass crimes).

The 5th international congress “Sport, doping and society” is organized by the Spanish Agency for Health Protection in Sport (AEPSAD) and the Technical University of Madrid (UPM). Under the theme “Think Clean”, there will be presented the results of scientific researches and new methodologies in the field of doping in sport from the specific perspective of Human and Social Sciences. We believe that this initiative will contribute to identify the factors that influence the use of doping substances and methods. From this knowledge we hope to foster future prevention and doping control and to promote ethical behavior in sport.

Merchants, jurists and other "intermediate groups" in Early Modern Southern Europe
Merchants, farmers, jurists, clerks in large institutions, secretaries, independent landowners, local elites and highly sought master craftsmen, among many others, are individuals with an ambiguous social status. Looking at who was not born exactly noble, nor exactly commoner, but stood on the border between one world and the other, is one of the goals of this initiative. As part of a project developed in Portugal focusing on the Holy Office’s familiaturas, it will be held on September 16 and 17, 2015, a workshop at Escuela Española de Historia and Archaeological in Rome. Our aim is to select a total of 8 applicants, that will be joined by 4 guest speakers, for a joint reflection on the dynamics and profiles of ‘intermediate groups’, as well as on the methodologies for their study in Early Modern Times.

Two religions beneath the same roof
The history of pluri-confessional families in the Middle Ages in the Iberian Peninsula
Ces journées d’étude abordent des questions portant sur les familles à composante pluri-religieuse. Nonobstant les travaux consacrés aux groupes religieux dans les sociétés multiconfessionnelles qui, le plus souvent, opposent ces « communautés » présentées comme des blocs monolithiques, l’histoire a le devoir de mettre au jour le vécu singulier de chaque individu. L’étude des minorités ne peut se réduire au collectif, au général. Si l’historien aime à dresser des tableaux synoptiques d’une période, d’un lieu, ici l’occasion sera offerte de s’interrogersur ces stratégies discursives. Le groupe religieux d’appartenance des individus peut constituer un tout, mais n’oublions pas que les familles et les individus en réalisent les parties.

Memory, truth and justice in Uruguay
Memoria, vedrdad y justica en Uruguay
Ce colloque organisé par ILCEA, propose de faire un état des lieux de la gestion politique et sociétale du passé prédictatorial et dictatorial du point de vue des constructions mémorielles, de la recherche et de la connaissance de la vérité, et des enquêtes et procès judiciaires nationaux et internationaux. L’axe civilisations hispaniques de l’Institut des langues et cultures d’Europe et d’Amérique mène depuis 4 ans un projet autour de la mémoire des événements traumatisants et des relations internationales dans le monde hispanique, déjà concrétisé par l’organisation des colloques internationaux. Dans la continuité de ces projets et dans le cadre d’initiatives internationales de soutien à l’Uruguay et de réflexions sur la gestion du passé traumatique, l’ILCEA organise un colloque international en faisant appel à des magistrats et des universitaires, acteurs clés de la lutte pour la vérité et la justice en Uruguay, ainsi que des spécialistes français et internationaux des droits de l’Homme.
