Call for Papers
International
Forum for Leadership of Music Institutions
IFLMI-2018 Theme: Online International Cooperation
The organizing committee welcomes proposals for presentations at the
Fourth International Forum for Leadership of Music Institutions (IFLMI, formerly
IMILF), to be held at Zhejiang Normal University, in Jinhua, China, on May
19-21, 2018.
The International Forum for Leadership of Music Institutions (IFLMI) is a
unique biennial event that attracts Deans and Directors of music conservatories
and university schools of music worldwide for discussion of the latest issues
impacting higher education leadership in the field of music. IFLMI’s
participants come from Europe, North America, South America, Oceania, and
across Asia for keynote speeches, presentations, and panel discussions
concerning new approaches in this field. Previous meetings have been held in
Beijing, China, and Brisbane, Australia.
The conference theme
for IFLMI-2018 is Online International Cooperation, and we especially seek
participation from leaders of music institutions that are developing MOOCs or
other online education projects and interested in international cooperation. We
will consider proposals for both research-based and practical presentations
from music institution leaders, particularly those developing innovative forms
of Internet-based music collaboration. Presentations may be offered in either
English or Chinese, with simultaneous translation provided. Space
is limited, and only strong proposals from highly-qualified applicants will be
accepted. Ground transportation from Hangzhou Xiaoshan airport, hotel
accommodation, and meals for the full three days will be provided for speakers
whose papers are accepted at the conference.
