PAST CONFERENCES
|
Below you will find a complete list of conference themes back to 1954. Whenever possible, the Conference Book (also known as the "orange book") has been made available in PDF. The Conference Book contains abstracts on all conference plenary sessions, as well as biographical information about presenters, and information on seminars and workshops presented during the conference.
Prior to 1991, there was no "orange book" as such. Wherever possible for the years prior to 1991, we have provided scanned images of original conference materials, such as the conference flyer from the Star Island Blue Book, discussion questions, conference reports, and speaker schedules. 2017 - The "Wicked Problem" of Climate Change: What is it doing to us and for us?
