However, the submission of other topics for consideration is welcome and we also encourage sessions within and across a variety of interdisciplinary and theoretical perspectives. In this conference – one of a series of five held in 2015 on education, power and empowerment – participants are invited to explore and question ways in which education can transcend boundaries of space, identity, culture and more, and to consider the ways in which power relations might hinder or enhance learning. Abstracts should address one or more of the streams below, identifying a relevant sub-theme: Sub-Themes: Educating through borders of power Transcending boundaries of 'self' and 'other' Challenging and transcending learning spaces Education and the boundaries of communication Borderlands of being and becoming Submission streams can be found on the Call for Papers page of the webiste: http://iafor.org/ace2015-call-for-papers/ IAFOR looks forward to welcoming you to Kobe, Japan. ***About IAFOR and its events IAFOR welcomes thousands of academics to our conferences each year, which range in size from around 100 to in excess of 500 attendees. They do so because of the supportive and nurturing research environment, because of the unique networking opportunities, and because of the strength of the organization's platform. Our conferences are meticulously planned and programmed under the direction of prominent academics to ensure that they offer programs of the highest level, and are also quite unique in the way in which they are supported by some of the world's leading academic institutions, including the University of London (UK), Virginia Tech (USA), Monash University (Australia), Barcelona University (Spain), Waseda University (Japan), the National Institute of Education (Singapore), and The Hong Kong Institute of Education (HKSAR).
