The confer- ence provides an opportunity for researchers to present papers that reflect on cultural poli- cy from any relevant discipline, provided they make an original academic contribution to the field. The First International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR 1999) was held in Bergen, Norway on November 10th -12th 1999. The main goal of the conference was to establish a more stable international network for researchers within the field of Cul- tural Policy Research, and to secure the continuity of the network by introducing a biennial conference to be held in different parts of the world. The initiative to organise the ICCPR 1999 was taken by an international group of researchers in cooperation with the Interna- tional Journal of Cultural Policy. About 140 researchers from 17 countries attended the conference. 60 papers (of 110 abstracts submitted) were presented. A selection of papers was subsequently published in the International Journal of Cultural Policy (Vol. 7, No 1 and Vol. 7, No 2). The Second International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR 2002) took place in Wellington, New Zealand, 23th – 26th January 2002. 192 researchers at- tended the conference. More than 100 papers were presented. A selection of papers was subsequently published in the International Journal of Cultural Policy (Vol. 8, No 2 and Vol. 9, No 1). The Third International Conference on Cultural Policy Research was organized by François Colbert and the Carmelle and Rémi Marcoux Chair in Arts Management, HEC Montréal. Additional information about the ICCPR 2004 is available on: http://neumann.hec.ca/iccpr/ The Fourth International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR 2006) took place in Vienna, 12th – 16th July, 2006. About 400 researchers from 52 countries at- tended the conference. 195 papers were presented. A selection of papers was published in the International Journal of Cultural policy (Vol. 13, No 2 and 3). The Fifth International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR 2008) took place in Istanbul, 20th – 24th August, 2008. About 250 researchers from more than 40 countries attended the conference. 110 papers were presented. The Sixth International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR 2010) took place in Jyväskylä, Finland, 24 – 27 August, 2010. About 250 researchers attended the conference and 170 papers were presented. Additional information about ICCPR 2010 is available at: https://www.jyu.fi/en/congress/iccpr2010 4 | ICCPR. MEMBERS OF THE ICCPR SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE The Seventh International Conference on Cultural Policy Research (ICCPR 2012) took place in Barclona, Spain, 9-12 July, 2012.

In Lower Saxony, we are guided by the basic idea of cultural participation for all citizens. Therefore, cultural education, socio-cultural and inter-cultural as well as cross-cultural work are particularly encouraged. However, which tools and measures can achieve these goals? How is cultural poli- cy shaped in other countries and what are the new approaches? These questions reveal the crucial role of the international discourse for successful cultural policy: Scientific knowledge can be developed through exchange and thereby stimulate the policy debate. The eighth International Conference on Cultural Policy Research in September 2014 offers perfect conditions for a successful debate. It is hosted by the first and only chair of cultural policy in Germany, and it holds a UNESCO Chair with focus on Cultural Policy for the Arts in Development. Moreover, the conference takes place at a special ven- ue, the Kulturcampus Domäne Marienburg. It is an inspirational environment and provides ideal working conditions in a unique and creative atmosphere. The city of Hildesheim, with its many historical and cultural highlights as well as two UNESCO World Heritage sites ensures a stimulating supplementary program. I hereby invite you to participate at the ICCPR2014, to debate and to continue to explore cultural policy. We are looking forward to hosting the eighth International Confer- ence on Cultural Policy Research in Hildesheim, and wish you a warm welcome in Lower Saxony. Sincerely, Dr. Gabriele Heinen-Kljajić 6 | WELCOME ADDRESSES Wolfgang-Uwe Friedrich Welcome address by the President of the University of Hildesheim Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to wish you a warm welcome to the University of Hildesheim Foundation. The work of the Kulturcampus Domäne Marienburg is driven by passion and a thirst for knowledge. This is thanks to the community of academics and students who give the campus its particular inspiration. The Kulturcampus is based on a medieval fortress which has had an eventful 650-year history – over the years it has had many owners, including the Church, Crown, state, farmers and the military. Today it is the property of the Universi- ty of Hildesheim Foundation. Two thirds of the 1,100 students who come to Hildesheim in Lower Saxony to study Cultural Studies hail from other regions of Germany or from abroad. The Cultural Studies, Aesthetics and Applied Arts course was created in 1978, making it the oldest course in Germany that leads to a qualification in the field of the arts,

    Liebe Sportkameradinnen, liebe Sportkameraden, seit nun 100 Jahren prägt der Fußball das sportliche Geschehen in unse- rer Stadt und dies ist ein Grund zum Feiern. Vom ersten organisierten Fußballspiel kurz nach Ende des Ersten Welt- krieges bis zu den heutigen Spielen im Karl-Binder Stadion war es ein lan- ger und spannender Weg. Dass dieser Weg - auch mit Unterstützung der Sponsoren und Förderer des Fußballsports - so erfolgreich zurückgelegt werden konnte, verdanken die fußballspielenden Vereine dem großen und unermüdlichen Engagement seiner Mitglieder und ehrenamtlich Tä- tigen. Sie haben den Vereinen zu ihrem guten Ruf im Fußballkreis ver- holfen. Für dieses wichtige Engagement danken wir als Vorstand des S.V. Bockenem 2007 e.V. allen Beteiligten ganz besonders. Den fußballspielenden Mannschaften im Ambergau und insbesondere in der Stadt Bockenem wünschen wir weiterhin viele Tore und Siege und den gesamten Vereinen auch in Zukunft viel Engagement seiner Mitglie- der. Mit sportlichem Gruß Der Vorstand des S.V. Bockenem 2007 e.V. Katja Lauterbach Rüdiger Weise Lars Mahnkopf Begrüßen möchte ich alle, die zu diesem 100-jährigen Fest gekommen sind. Außerdem möchte ich mich bei dem SV Bockenem 2007 bedanken, der es möglich gemacht hat, mit uns zusammen in Bockenem dieses Fest zu veranstalten. Vieles könnte ich aus den Schubladen kramen. Mein Motto „Der Weg ist das Ziel“. Oft war dieser Weg steinig und doch haben wir nie aufgegeben. Integration steht auf unserer Fahne. Bedanken möchte ich mich im Namen des Vorstandes für die Unterstützung

  • Who Really Cares About Higher Education for Sustainable Development?
    Journal of Social Sciences 7 (1): 24-32, 2011 ISSN 1549-3652 © 2010 Science Publications Who Really Cares About Higher Education For Sustainable Development? 1Torsten Richter and 2Kim Philip Schumacher 1Department of Biology, University of Hildesheim, Marienburger Platz 22, 31141 Hildesheim, Germany 2Institute for Spatial Analysis and Planning in Areas of Intensive Agriculture (ISPA), University of Vechta, Driverstrasse 22, 49377 Vechta, Germany Abstract: Problem statement: It is agreed that integrating Higher Education for Sustainable Development (HESD) into the curricula of universities is of key importance to disseminate the idea of sustainability. Especially the curricula of teacher-training should contain elements of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) due to the crucial role of future teachers in information propagation. Approach: In order to find out about the spreading of ESD into the curricula and whether or not it is of interest to university staff and students two interlinked studies were carried out in northern Germany during the summer term 2009 using standardized questionnaires. Results: A large gap between pilot projects and the statements of politicians on the one hand and the interest of academic staff and students in sustainability issues and the dissemination of HESD and ESD into the standard curricula of universities on the other was observed. Only 20% of respondents stated to have either given or attended courses relating to sustainability. Conclusion/Recommendations: Nevertheless there is a strong approval
