Dear Vi friends,
I am pleased to forward the following academic opportunities from the Virtual Institute network.
Vi Colombian affiliate member, Universidad de la Sabana, is accepting applications for visiting professors to contribute to its upcoming summer school programme, scheduled for the second and third weeks of June 2018. The International School of Economic and Administrative Sciences' short courses aim to enhance its participants' (undergraduate and postgraduate students, lecturers and professionals in the field) global vision.
Candidates must submit an application letter (English or Spanish) addressed to Hilda Arango de Ortega, Dean of the International School of Economic and Administrative Sciences; a detailed CV highlighting main topics of teaching experience (Ph.D. desirable); and a course syllabus proposal specifying the preferred language of instruction and the methodology that will be implemented (case studies desirable).

Maria Alejandra Gonzalez-Perez, core Colombian university coordinator at Universidad EAFIT, invites Vi members to submit chapters for the upcoming book "Diversity in Diversity Management."
The book seeks to provide new practical and strategic insights for practitioners, managers, students and policymakers and delve into the strategic nature of policy intervention. Contributors aim to provide critical reflection on current debate areas on diversity and equality in under-researched countries to inform and support evidence-based decision-making for a wide variety of academic and practice-oriented stakeholders. It will benefit higher-education students' learning experience, and provide useful resources to enrich knowledge and learning on diversity and equality in business programs, organizations, and government.
