We have been working hard at updating the website with details of the programme and schedule for the conference. You have been responding to your corrections and updates, and we will be posting an updated version of the conference programme on May 31.

Do remember to take advantage of the cheaper campus accommodation within walking distance of the conference site. We ask that you pay before June 15 unless you have made prior arrangements with the Secretariat. For details of the location, how to book and pay for rooms, see accommodation details at: http://www.crossroads2008.org/accommodation.html

We would like to use this opportunity to announce ‘Reading at the Crossroads’ as part of the activities in the Cultural Village based on requests we have received from writers and poets. Please let us know if you would like to read from your works of fiction, prose or poetry by writing us at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
