Every time I look for a conference to present research on the intersection of Architecture, Conflict, and Urban Planning, all the best conferences just happened or I missed the call for papers. Of course one has to be flexible and try to find fitting venues, but it can be a challenge. Fortunately this week I found a large collection of upcoming conferences for 2011-2012. I definitely intend to attend at least one of these and I hope to see you there.
