First Annual Conference of the Social Sciences Call for Conference Papers Title of the Conference: the Voice of Social Sciences Conference Theme: Achieving Sustainable Development in the Interconnected World Conference venue: Mlimani City Date: 17-18 November 2014 Introduction The College of Social Sciences will organize its First Annual Conference titled the Voice of Social Sciences from 17thto 18th November 2014 in Dar es Salaam. The Conference theme for this year is Achieving Sustainable Development in the Interconnected World.

It is noticed that the voice of social scientists in addressing many social, economic, political and environmental aspects is lacking in planning and this is assumed to be one of the factors for failure to achieve sustainable development. This calls for a review of our planning, use of data and information to conduct scientific research. This Conference therefore will build on that knowledge, document common and different voices of social scientists. Targeted audience Academics, researchers, consultants, government officials, policy makers, civil societies, development partners, and students.
