[hr-education] 5th International Conference on the Capability Approach

Dear colleagues,

Together with the Human Development and Capability Association (HDCA) and
a number of other partners, UNESCO, through its Division for the Promotion
of Quality Education, is coorganizing and hosting the 5th International
Conference on the Capability Approach. The Conference will be held at
UNESCO Headquarters, 11-14 September 2005, under the theme "Knowledge and
Public Action: Education, Responsibility, Collective Agency, Equity".
Participants are encouraged to submit papers before 1 April 2005.

The Conference includes four research directions, one of which is Quality
Education. For this theme, we are in particular looking forward to
receiving a number of papers on the links between the Human Capability
approach and issues related to the decade on education for sustainable
development, life skills and quality education, education for human
rights, gender issues, vulnerability, and broadly defined sustainable
development skills for the workforce etc.  For more information, please
