CALL FOR PAPERS – DEADLINE EXTENDED until DECEMBER 12, 2014

Junior faculty members with a promising research agenda in nonprofit management are invited to attend a conference exploring how nonprofit organizations are facing new challenges and taking on new structures in the wake of the Great Recession.

Advancing the Field(s) of Nonprofit Management: New Structures, New Solutions is hosted by the School of Public and Environmental Affairs (SPEA) on Indiana University's Bloomington campus, April 16-18, 2015. The conference will bring many of the nation's pre-eminent senior nonprofit management scholars together with promising junior faculty to foster understanding of how cross-sector relations vary across fields of activity or social settings, and how lessons from one field apply to others.

To accommodate requests for extensions, the new deadline is now December 12, 2014. Visit the call for papers website for more details and to submit a proposal (www.indiana.edu/~spea/research/conferences/nonprofit_management/call_for_papers.shtml)
