International Convention on
Globalization and Rural Development
India Institute of Youth Welfare will organize the International Convention on Globalization and Rural Development from February 24 to 26, 2006 in Nagpur, India.
Globalization has different meanings in different context. Some parts of the world see it as a process that can boost economies, improve living standards, reduce economic disparity and create more understanding by integrating different cultures under one roof-World. Other part of the world believes it as an instrument of destruction making the least developing and developing countries economically weak.
The main themes of the Convention includes:
* Globalization and Rural development
* Globalization and its effects on common person.
* New Economic Policy on rural Industrialization.
* Globalization: its impact on farm export.
* Agro Industry: the changing dimension of Agro economy.
* Structural adjustment and rural development.
* Social security and structural adjustment.
* New economic policy and rural Industrial employment.
* Rural poverty and economic reforms: opportunities and Constraints.
* Employment and unemployment of youth.
* Unorganized sector and public policy (in the context of structural adjustment).
* Globalization and New Value Systems.
* Globalization and population issues in rural sectors.
* Globalization and environment issues.
* Globalization and water resources management.
* Globalization and its effects on health
The organizer believe that
sharing of the problems in the areas of rural development would go a long way in identifying the challenges and help to come out with solutions to overcome those hindrances posed in the way of developing rural sectors. An International Convention on Globalization and Rural Development would be a platform to spread the message of combining the essence of globalization and bringing self-sufficiency among the rural segment. After all Globalization must create opportunities, jobs and hopes for everyone.
