Announcing the first joint Australian and New Zealand Research in Early Childhood Conference

The Australian Research in Early Childhood Education (ARECE) group are organising and hosting the next conference for New Zealand and Australia, to be held at Monash University in Melbourne, Tue Jan 22 to Wed Jan 23 2008.

With airfares to Australia now comparable to the cost of airfares in NZ and the huge intellectual and social benefits to be gained by bringing NZ and Australian early childhood research communities together, it makes sense to alternate annually our conferences between Australia and NZ. The research conference will now be held every 2nd year in NZ and every other year in Melbourne. Thus, Childforum Early Childhood Research Network will not be having our annual conference in December in NZ this year, but we will join with our Australian colleagues in January. Updates, with information on submitting a proposal to present and information on attending the conference at Monash University, will be emailed to you through the Childforum Early Childhood Research Network leading up to the event.

In January 2009 the Australian-NZ conference will be held in Wellington.
