Environmental Studies Association of Canada

The Environmental Studies Association of Canada (ESAC) is pleased to invite you to participate in its annual conference as part of the Congress of the Federation of Humanities and Social Sciences 2013, at the University of Victoria in Victoria, BC, from June 3 to 5, 2013.

As Canada’s leading association of interdisciplinary researchers and practitioners involved in a diversity of environmental fields, ESAC facilitates networking and dialogue across environment-related fields and practices.

The 2013 ESAC conference provides a unique opportunity for delegates to take part in a lively exchange of ideas relating to sustainability among a broad range of students, academic researchers, members of NGOs, community groups, and the public and private sector academics, practitioners, policy makers, and activists.

This year’s conference theme, “Edges and Flows: Diversity, Environment, and Society”, is reflected in the location of the conference at Canada’s edge and the coastal geography of the University.
