The conference will cover the very important themes under verities of disciplinary areas such as Sociology, Anthropology, Geography, Philosophy, Psychology, Political Science, Criminology, Law and justice, Gender and women's studies. We also expect to provide more space to discussion, and numerous opportunities for informal networking, and sight seen tours for the conference participants. On a more personal note it was a true pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all conference attendees. We have a very diverse group of researches, policy makers, professional and academics from many parts of the world, and it is truly a pleasure to welcome you all. As a conference co-chair, I know that the success of the conference depends ultimately on the many people who have worked with us planning and organizing both the technical program and supporting social arrangements.
