Theme: Utopias, Realities, Heritages. Ethnographies for the 21st century
The 12th international SIEF congress will take place in Zagreb, 21-25 June 2015. We expect over 900 anthropologists, ethnologists, folklorists and others interested in European culture for four exciting days of keynotes, parallel panels, book exhibit and a congress banquet.
Read the congress theme, browse the panels and papers, and then register to attend.
Meanwhile, due to a music festival at the time of the congress, accommodation is selling quickly, so we recommend you book your accommodation now.
The call for funding is closed and all applicants have been contacted with decisions.
