The World Academy
of Science, Engineering and Technology (Waset) will host the 22nd International
Conference on Historical Sciences (ICHS) in Cape Town, on 2-3 November 2020
and this event should not be missed as this large, joined conference only takes
place every 5 years. Also, do not be discouraged by the Term ‘Historical’ in the
conference name as this is really an interdisciplinary conference in the true sense
of the word.
The list of
potential topics includes more than 60 themes. Topics include, but are not
limited to Psychology, Communication Science, Geography, Health, Human rights, Country
studies, Technology, Law and justice, Open learning and Distance education,
Public administration, Sociology, Sport education, sustainable development,
Violence, extremism and terrorism and Computing. Abstracts should not be longer
that 500 words and there are strict rules that apply so ensure that you check
before submission.
A doctoral
consortium provides doctoral students with a great opportunity to explore and
develop their research within an interdisciplinary setting. And there is an
added bonus for those who want to volunteer as a chair, workshop organizer or
even a keynote speaker: They will not have to pay the registration fee of 450 €.
Accommodation and travel costs however, are not included in this offer.
The
conference venue is the Cape Town Lodge hotel and conference centre.
As you all
know, Cape Town is a wonderful city and even South Africans enjoy the many
tourist attractions and cultural diversity of this lovely city and its
surroundings when visiting. There are not only world heritage sites such as
Robbin island, but also one of the natural wonders to the world, Table mountain
to explore while the surrounding wineries and the meeting point of the two
large oceans at the southern tip of the African continent are all competing for
your time and attention so do make sure that you also include some time before
or after the conference to enjoy and explore.
