Speaker: Marietje Schaake. Marietje is an independent advisor on diversity, integration and Islam in the West. She is the 2007-2008 Residential Fellow at Netherlands Atlantic Association where she writes her forthcoming book.
We are pleased to invite all graduate students as well as young researchers and faculty members from all departments and schools of Harvard to attend the Islam in the West Graduate Student Research Workshop.
The workshop provides a forum for graduate students who are interested in topics related to Islam and Muslim communities in North America and Europe to:
1. Present and discuss their research areas and receive useful feedback from their peers;
2. Discuss relevant topics and new research in this important but still loosely organized research area;
3. Engage in valuable interdisciplinary collaboration;
4. Engage in discussion and cooperation with visiting scholars working on related issues.
Lunch will be served.
Please RSVP to Momina Cheema (mcheema@fas.harvard.edu) by Wednesday March 5 noon.
