We organize an annual meeting that focuses on the work of liberatory educators,activists, and community organizers. Conference attendees collaborate in investigations of the roots of class, race, and gender inequalities. This event provides opportunities to combine action and reflection. Liberatory practitioners and theorists will find the conference a stimulating place to share their knowledge and to reflect on and improve their work. We hope that what we practice in our conference can be achieved in the world. We invite proposals on all aspects of emancipatory education and theatre including power relations in the learning environment, systems of structural privilege and oppression, popular education, and subversive challenge. We encourage proposals that explore the ways in which people can take personal circumstances and turn them into catalysts for political action. For inclusion in the conference, your proposal must relate in some manner to Paulo Freire's model of liberatory education or Augusto Boal's approach to interactive theatre. We welcome proposals from teachers, theatre artists and community activists who employ the ideas of Freire and/or Boal in their work or research. Please make this connection clear in your proposal. We strongly encourage interactive presentations. Proposals must be postmarked or emailed via website by February 1, 2003. Web submissions are strongly encouraged. For the application form go to: http://www.unomaha.edu/~pto/callprop.htm The conference will be held May 29 - 31, 2003 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA.
