Call for Papers


The University of Management Sciences & Information Technology  Kotli, Azad
Kashmir, Pakistan  is  pleased to announce Call for Papers for the 1st
International Conference on Indigenous Resource Management, Challenges and
Opportunities 2016 to be held on  14-15 April 2016, at university campus .

The region of Kashmir and Azad Kashmir in particular, exhibits a diverse and
unique indigenous natural and cultural heritage. These indigenous treasures
have remained largely unexplored, as the region has always been inaccessible
to researchers. It is striking nevertheless how cultural and natural
resources in the region have been undergoing rapid depletion and
degradation. 

The conference will explore indigenous resources and opportunities to
promote and preserve them.  It will also provide opportunities for scholars
to network and collaborate.

The organizers look forward to your participation in this exciting
opportunity to deepen understanding, share experiences and discuss progress
in exploring indigenous resources of our native places. Distinguished
international and local scholars will present papers on critical issues and
developments.
