Project description

The four-day conference, with pre- and post-conference excursions, wants to demonstrate all aspects of geomorphological research in Ethiopia and Africa and to promote cooperation between national and international researchers and those engaged in related fields of study, as well as field practitioners. The Conference is open to all scientists conducting research in the field of geomorphology, and particularly those interested in tropical environments, and in interactions between geomorphology and human society. About 100-150 participants are expected, from all over the world, with some regional(African) predominance.
